Big Week!

3 February 2006 by kristarella

This week really has been jam packed full of stuff!

I went to the beach on Monday and got very burnt – thankfully that’s nearly all better. It’s a little itchy, you know how it is when your skin is healing?
On Tuesday I went to work, karate and we tried to go shopping but failed due to not bringing our wallets!
Wednesday was more work and then we managed to do the supermarket shopping.
Yesterday I went to the shops to drop off my hubby’s dry cleaning – we have a wedding to go to on Saturday. I then met up with a friend from church and we went to Max Brenner for hot chocolate – it’s a whole other chocolate world in there! I then went and visited my friend and her baby. I worked on a new template for my blog – I’m going to change it one more time, then that’s it for ages! After dinner we had to go to a band rehearsal for the wedding tomorrow.
Today I’m: working on my blog template; preparing for youth group at church, which starts back tonight; checking up on all my favourite and not yet favourite blogs; I also need to go to the shops to pick up my hubby’s clothes and also find something to go under my dress – I need to cover my boobs a bit – they show way too much in that thing!

Woo, and the weekend is going to be jam packed too but I might leave that until it’s actually happened.

I wonder if I should have my tea and chocolate before or after going to the shops…

    You know what I find one of the most interesting things is about visiting this blog? All the different expressions I’m learning, being an American.

    Failed sue? Fun stuff!:)

    I think I actually meant to type “failed due to not…” My bad!

Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Title Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Titles! I was a sub for @jamesxuereb.me in the Blue Flame Dragons thanks to his sprained ankle; we won first round and came fourth overall!
I did a bunch of judging and officiating, which was really good.
I didn’t place in my individual events, but had a very fun final round of kumite (sparring).
