Hai there!
June 12th, 2009
I took this photo in Calais but never got round to putting it up. So here it is now. [:
Nathan and I are both feeling absolutely shattered today. Yesterday was busy, busy, busy and it feels like we’ve hardly slept a wink either. But neither of us are complaining, we’re just having a quiet day and may go to the fun fair this afternoon. But we may go on the weekend, depending on how we’re feeling.
The windscreen wiper snapped off our car yesterday which is a pain in the arse. We have to park underneath a tree every night and it deposits sticky stuff all over the place; the majority being on our car. It doesn’t aim for any other car parked underneath it, oh no, it aims specifically for our’s as I’m convinced it is out to get us. That evil tree. Anyway, yesterday morning I was washing the windscreen and one of the wipers started to make a horrible noise, so I turned it off and it went flying! I kept having to remind myself that it was snapped and I mustn’t turn it on. But then we were waiting for a car to turn across us and I managed to stall as we were on a slope, and as I turned the ignition back on, I bumped the wipers on so we had this metal thing scrape right across the glass making a nail-down-chalkboard noise. It was most unpleasant. So this weekend I think we need to drive off to Halfords and get it fixed. I may pick up some other bits and bobs whilst we’re there. I’d love to invest in a Tomtom sometime. But even those are scary as people always submit stories of how they got led to cliff edges because of those navigation systems. What’s with that? That’s not cool!
Oh yeah! Nathan said he’d buy me a Tiffany’s ring for our wedding so we spent lunch time on their site. I’m positive I found my perfect one. [: I’m so excited and happy and eeeeh!
I’ve decided what to do for Nathan’s birthday and I am thoroughly stoked. I think it is a very good plan and I can’t wait to do it all. Unfortunately for him, he’s going to have to put up with my secretive self and gleeful giggles for just over a week now. I just need to buy him presents. I wanted to get him a macbook, but they seem to be a tad out of my budget right now, so I guess I’ll downsize and find something just as good. Hmm.
We also found the most amazing place the other day. We were walking through all these trees and came out onto a massive lake/pond. I really want to get in sometime and take a million photographs, but it is protected because of wildlife until July 31st. So come August 1st, I’ll be waiting in the bushes for everyone to vanish before I strike! I want to try and do a water series and make it look all misty and cold, that means Nathan will be getting wet again. But I will be too, so we’ll just have heaps of fun!
Anyway, this was just a blog to update on our busy lives right now. I think we’ll go for an afternoon snooze later. So tired! That is all for now! Over and out.
