Suz | 4439 comments My 10yo son came home from school today (carrying his book which I thought was strange) and asked me to 'read to me from 7.30-8 o'clock tonight', so Hard Luck (Diary of a Wimpy Kid, #8) by Jeff Kinney it is!

B the BookAddict (bthebookaddict) Hi, Leonie and Julie. Marianne must have decided to 'road walk' today instead of her treadmill. She's probably close to Sydney by now!

Good luck Carolyn! We'll be thinking of you:(


message 13521: by Carolyn (new)

Carolyn | 9871 comments Thanks all. Just fixing up a broken tooth so not too much drama. What I hate most is going into work afterwards with half your face immobilised and trying not to dribble when you talk to people.

And being too scared to drink anything because you cant feel as if it is going in your mouth - or down your front!!!

Not too busy today, but was a nice way to start the day, and I'm also at the stage where I don't always get a full night sleep due to Indy who's 2 and he didn't wake so I'm feeling so spoilt after a night like that. The little things.. In saying that though there is a lot of working happening just outside where hubby and 3 others are building a deck. And it's true what they say about tradesmen not doing their own chores - we've lived here for 14 years and he's a fencer who builds decks all the time!!! So even though long overdue, it's happening so it's great.

Hope it went ok, always good when those things are over and done with!!

Veronica ⭐️ | 2387 comments It will be lovely for you Suzanne, to have a nice new deck ready for spring and the warmer weather


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Oh god I should not have read through my lunch hour. Now I'm starving and I have to go straight from work to the footy tonight. Overpriced footy chips for me!

Good luck for the game tonight Michael. I'm off with the family tonight to Big Huey's American style Diner to pig out and be entertained by an Elvis impersonator!!! Can't wait as I'm a huge Elvis fan and this is the closest I'll get to the real thing now. :)

Lol, I walked on the treadmill, I went to work. Didn't have time to chat, no room in the carpark if I do...

Thanks Michael. I've googled him and he's not too bad as far as impersonators go but nothing compares to the real thing does it? I'm not taking it too seriously. It'll be fun and I'm sure my family will enjoy teasing me about it!!!

Veronica and Dale, this guy was awesome. If you ever get a chance to see him his name is Damian Mullin. He can actually sing and sounds a lot like Elvis. I was saying to Michael earlier that I won't be taking it too seriously but I was practically swooning!!! Couldn't even eat my dessert...now that's saying something. I even got a kiss!!!
