ANOTHER YEAR OLDER

COLLIWOG’S BIRTHDAY

Last night the three of us went out to Estruscos Italian Pasta and Pizza Restaurant to celebrate Colin’s Birthday.  Two of us had some tasty Gluten Free Pasta, Colin chose the Vension Pasta dish. We all have smelly garlic breaths this morning 🙂

It was a lovely sunny night looking thru the stained glass windows of the Savoy building at our window seat onto the main street of Dunedin below.

We had some homemade Banana Cake (Gluten Free too) for supper when we arrived home, one of his favourite cakes.  He didn’t even mind that it was GF.

Brenda (Buggalugs) ...here I come :)

Geez, I hope I can still waddle over the 5km finish line tonight of the Masters Games walk.   The weather has turned to custard today, rain and wind, damn!   It may improve by 6pm 🙂  Once again I am not great on the short distances as cannot take off fast at the start line , and if I try I get shin splints, so I will ease into it and give it my best shot to complete it.

The best part of this week apart from Colin having another birthday after all we’ve been through is I have a chance to go and see my wee Sister, Brenda in Aussie.  I am off for a well needed break for 10 days to see her in Brisbane on Friday after work.  … I am counting the sleeps 🙂    It will be sooooooooooooooooo great. I can feel the tears well up even writing this post thinking about it.

Bye the way, Colin is doing ok on his meds, he has a few side effects but trying to get through them and is working a few casual hours at his work in the mornings , hopefully it will turn into a permanent and full time job down the track when he is better   🙂

Time to go to work, have a good day.
