Lol - the way I feel about cleaning I might enjoy that - its out of my hands

I figure with 4 of us in the house for awhile i will have to make a little less of an effort as we can split the job... Im trying to be positive because I really HATE cleaning with a passion (almost equal to my passion for the TDF)

oh, trust me - it's not that I like to clean - ohhhh no

just that I want things to be just right!

will your guests pitch in and help?  that's impressive! 

Its family... and Im doing them a favour by letting them stay while they find themselves jobs and somewhere to live in Sydney so... Im sure we can work something out!

Artemis - 2008-07-23 9:06 PM Nice Nibbs notes, Beth!

thanks Jen!

how's it going? recover from re-entry into the 'real' world?

Not yet. I kept dropping things at work today. Kind of funny. But, I think it'll be better tomorrow.

I am really ready for my vacation!

I believe it!  

I feel like I need a vacation.   

Vacation?

Tell me more about this thing you call vacation.  I don't know what that is

I certainly dont understand the concept- my current ocmpany owes my 6 weeks anual leave and Ive only been here 2 years!

kns57 - 2008-07-23 3:08 PM DEE!!! Long time no see. Nibbs notes - good luck. Jen - birthday yesterday, ran a race sunday, now back at work Sal - birthday last week and he was at camp with a bunch of girls. Judi - ran a race saturday Kristen - ran a race saturday Beth - teasing Blake and Bill Blake - can't tell the diff between Kendra & Kristen Kendra - got the official motorcycle license. Just need to get back on the bike and I don't mean in the passenger seat. Ummmm, that's all I can come up with right now. LOL

Actually birthday yesterday. My wife does not let me forget I am now 44...

My daughter is at camp and my oldest is at Boundary Waters, so we're celebrating this weekend...

Do you have any plans for this weekend?

I've been to Boundary Waters.  I went once with a camp group when I was 16.  My mom was also 8.5 months pregnant with me when she and my dad went.  Surprised

Yep.  Youngest's soccer team is going to state playoffs.

Going to BW 8 months pregnant!  That's craziness!  Must be something in the water...

No kidding!  I think my grandparents freaked out.

Soccer team playoffs sound like fun.  Hopefully it's not too hot for them this weekend.

yeah - if the friend thats planning on moving over comes too Im guessing Im going to be an expert on the attractions of Sydney by the end of the year

It will be good though... Ive really struggled to find some roots in Sydney since I moved here.... outside of the great career opportunities!

Sal and Bill -

for the record, I did take pics of my legs tonight - even figured out the timer thing

I can't post them however - my camera died and will not recharge - don't know if it is the camera, the charger, or my legs causing the problem - LOL!

So, as far as kids, I think my mom has been very patient even if I didn't make that clear before.  I just turned 27.  We got married just before my 23rd birthday, so it's been 4 years.  She knows I want to wait until I finish school.  She has started saying things like "when you have kids" as opposed to "if you have kids".  Personally, I haven't decided.  I lean towards not, but DH leans towards them.

My wife and I had quite the different situation.  We were married when I was 23, we had our 1st when I was 25 (I was a senior in college--quite the non-traditional student), so we were raising our 1st while I was in graduate school.  Quite a few people thought we were NUTS...yeah, it was tough, but we look on those times fondly...would do it again the same way if I had it to do over again...(I'll be an empty nester when I'm 51, and hope to still be doing triathlons...)...
