quick note... still alive!

Hello Everyone, Sorry i havent blogged in a while.. have been quite busy and it is hard to find time to get onto the net when my sister is always hogging my laptop. I am good. Working hard (yes jen.. working...lol) i love going to work- think that is because i have just got a promotion -and with it more responsibilty, so im quite content at the moment. Last Friday i had a ball over at Jennys watching the movie with all the girls... was a bloddy sad movie.. thinkmi blubbered all the way home! lol. Havent really done much.. just worked. Was Mums 40thbirthday on Friday so i took the arvo off to help get set up for her party that was on the Sat. All her friends and some family came over on the sat night and we all had a few to drink. Sunday i was recooperating in bed whilst mum,dad and abbie went and watched the dorkers loose again...hehehe. Monday i chilled at home, saw a couple of friends.Spent time with my family and that was about it. Jen invited me round on Tues night so i took LAtte's and scones with me..they were yum!!!!! We watched Americas Next Top Model and guessed who was leaving..and kept waving c-ya to the girl we wanted to go this week.. we are sad arent we. At about ten i said i was heading home but we got talking and i didnt leave until nearly 11pm. It was good to catch up. Today was a sad day but a celebration in one way. It was my work friends funeral. He was diagnosed with liver cancer four weeks ago and passed away a week and a half ago. It was really sad to hear the news last week, especially coz he first trained me when i joined the department and i have worked with his wife in a few sections. Dave was only 36 and had a two yr old litle boy. The funeral service was really nice. It was open casket which i wasnt expecting but he looked so peaceful.. I had never gone to a funeral before so i didnt quite know what to expect- but it was a celebration of his life. They played a DVD at the end with photo's of him on there, which was lovely. There was about 60 staff members that came to say goodbye. I guess the reason why i am tellng you all about the funeral was because we should all be thankful that we are here and healthy.. life passes us by way too quick and we are always complaining about how petty somethings are in our life- but when u look at something like this, u see life in a different way and i am soo grateful for what life has given me so far and what i can give to the world in the future... anyways, i better go... way past my bedtime. Love to all If you look towards the sunshine, u will never see your shadows. :)
