P-A-R-T- Why? Coz I Gotta!

One of Megan's old friends, Neo, has invited her to his 6th birthday party today.  Its a Bakugan Battle Brawlers theme so I'm sure Megz will be in her element.  Any party with cake, party packs and boys toys and she's happy.  I'm sure they'll have a jumping castle and things for the kids to do.

Its been crappy weather most of the week - lots of rain - so I hope we not going to get rained out.  If we do, we're on our way to a Mel and Shaun's house to celebrate them moving out of home and moving into their own place.  A house warming and Mel's birthday party combined.

Will post pictures tomorrow when its all we're nursing hangovers.

Hey! Hey! Its Friday!

We took some Christmas shots of our wee family last night at home.

Christmas Cringe

We really need some fresh and updated Christmas Classics. Don’t you find that its always the same old boring toonz that adorn the festive radio waves at this time of year?  I’m getting a wee bit weary of them.  It actually makes me cringe.


• George Michael and his Last Christmas is just so old and dreary - just like most of the 80s.

• Squealing Mariah’s All I Want for Christmas Is You was simply a boob - just like her augmented chest.

• I’m dreaming of a Whiiiiite Creeesstmaaaas. Bing Crosby is dead peeps! What kinda name is Bing anyway?

• Do They Know Its Christmas?. Bob Geldof is a bit of a nutter at the best of times - who in their right mind, names their daughter “Peaches”? This song is been murdered repeatedly at Christmas. I really do care about feeding the world, but someone should put the Band Aid over Bob’s oral cavity for good.

This year we should be rockin’ it out at Carols by Candlelight with Achmed the Dead Terrorist’s "Jingle Bombs" or  "Hey Santa Claus" Kevin Bloody Wilson - you know, stuff that makes us cheery and jolly, not stuff that has a mind-numbing affect and puts us into a light coma.

May the songwriters of the world unite and give us the gift of new-fangled funky toonz this festive season.

Year End Function at Work - Survivor

Do you have what it takes to be the ultimate Survivor?

Out-wit, Out-play, Out-party


We finally got our invitations to our Year End Function!  And what a hype it caused at the office. We got a little bottle of sea sand on our desks filled with plastic bugs and a ice-cream stick (dunno what thats for).  We got a cryptic email leading us to a website link where you had to complete a puzzle before it opened the invitation. 

Sounds like its going to be an active and fun-filled day in Hartebeespoort on the 27th of November.

"Bring your wit, leave your integrity. 

Lies, allegiance, alliances and for the most part FUN lead to your ultimate goal...immunity!

The HOMEMAKERS tribe has spoken!"

(Yes, that is a fly on the top of the bottle)

Simply Slim Weight Loss Update with pic

Tomorrow will be 5 weeks on Simply Slim (with a weekend or two off and some cheating on my camping weekend away)

I have lost 5.5kg in total now.  I am thrilled to bits!  I never measured my centimeters lost but some of my clothes are very loose on me.  I can finally fit into my Size 10 pants.

I'm sleeping better than ever and my energy levels are high thoroughout the day and only sometimes I get a slight headache if I don't drink enough fluids.  So it helps with the intake of gallons of water.

I have been watching what I eat over the last 5 weeks but if I feel like a chocolate, I have it.  I just have a lot less that what I normally would have.  Most of you know how much of a chocoholic I am. 

I nibble snacks throughout the day to keep my metabolism and sugar levels up and have my main meal at night at about 6pm.  I don't make special meals or weigh my food, I just dish up a lot less and I listen to my body.  When I feel full, I stop and I am able to manage about half the portion that I used to have.

Will be taking a week's break next week and then will continue in December over the holidays.  I would hate to pick up all the weigh that I've lost.

About another 4 or 5kg and I will start maintaining.
