Happy Happy Happy New Year

2009 is my year for sure. All my horoscopes say so, so it must be true.

I had the best New Years Eve and birthday I have had in years. Stayed in Melbourne, had predinner drinks, went for dinner to a Vietnamese restaurant in Richmond, watched the midnight fireworks at Birrarung Marr and finally hit the sack around 3am. Bit weary the next day but a lovely birthday dinner was in order so a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.

The fireworks were amazing. I love fireworks. The beginning of a New Year. The feeling of belonging, to this great country, Australia and to the place to be, Melbourne.

Now I need to get a job. I have had six weeks off and if I wish to lead the life to which I am accustomed I need to get some money coming in. Positive thinking reaps positive results.

But first things first, have to organise celebration of my birthday (albeit belatedly). Could be about 16 people coming so I am gonna have to fill them up. Rough plans in my head are - a Webber with 3 different types of roast, bbq'd corn on the cob, scalloped potatoes, selection of salads, few wines or beers and a Wii challenge. Yes Kelstar got a Wii for Xmas and I have been busily honing my bowling and tennis skills.

Keep smiling :-) it is easy, just lift up the two sides of your mouth simultaneously!!
