What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.
It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.

Sorry, forgot to take a photo for you

Thursday I spent 30 minutes having my legs waxed, after shaving them all winter, it turned in to a 45 minute wax that left quite a bit of bruising. It turned in to a good workout for the girl doing the waxing and at least she liked the colour of my toe nails.

Sunday, armed with new eyeliner, eye shadow and lipstick (A present from a friend that arrived yesterday), I headed off to a large retail shop (The Warehouse) to by a pretty new summer dress that will show off my legs. Unfortunately the dress colour was significantly different than in the advertised mailer.
Since I had smooth legs, I was wearing a bandage sized micro mini skirt that just covered my butt cheeks and a low V cut blue lace top







This photo was taken a while ago, today skirt was shorter than this black skirt and today I had a V neck top of a similar colour











I had to visit Mitre 10 hardware again (still doing building work on the home), bought a new door lock, chatted to a few staff about "Approved" vapour barriers for concrete floors.

Then it was Brunch time with my girlfriend Josie, which was real fun
a) because it's always fun with Josie, and
b) I was perched on a bar stool in my micro-mini, bare upper thighs sticking to the wooden stool and happy I had chosen pretty under wear this morning, but like any lady I always had my knees together.

At 11.30 am, wife had me stop off at the large supermarket for supplies, got lovely compliments from a group of staff members around the supervisors till.

At the moment, our weather is being bipolar, it's meant to be warm enough for summer clothes, but it's undecided from hour to hour as to if it should be summer or winter. Today was not the day for bare legs. I can't wait until I can wear my summer dresses again, like this one from last summer....


Where ever you are, whatever your doing, I hope it's fun
Rachel.

An hour to kill

Plans are afoot this morning, to paint the roof, take daughter to spend her birthday money, do more home alterations etc etc etc.........
But before everyone (including the stranger sleeping on my couch) wake up, there is an hour or 2 for me to just be me.

Hope my see through top isn't to slutty, well maybe a bit slutty would be nice, I mean really, what's the point of having pretty bras if no one gets to see them   :)

The coffee is nice and creamy and I got some time to relax and read my book, so it's a good start to a busy day

No girl time.....in to much pain

No really...
I'm to old to be removing tin roofs, fitting new roof underlay and then re-fitting the roof without help.
I've located new groups of muscles I didn't even know existed....but I'm okay so long as I don't sleep on my side, back or front or sitting. Wish I was on the international space station, I could sleep standing up.
It's 9 am, and I really need some sleep (as well as paint the roof, stain the deck and 100 other chores on this beautiful spring morning).
I hope your weekend will be more relaxing

Life is, what we make it

And I like mine with lots of fun
And what better way to start the weekend with getting dressed pretty and going out with a girl friend (Wife has Rugby on the TV, so she is happy, kids have to go to work).

Wife drove me to Josie's house so she could have the car for running the kids to and from work, while I jumped in Josie's car, it was great going in to the city and NOT having to drive

We parked at Sky City and walked across the main street of the city to the Art Gallery for lunch





















We then walked across Albert Park, me in my new skinny shiny pants, my favorite boots, and oldest daughters top

 

I took the umbrella for the rain, that didn't happen while we were outside walking through the busy city. Meet some cool friends of Josie during out walk and chatted for a few minutes.
At 2 pm we were seated at a Lecture by Chris Lintott - a famous TV presenter, on finding "Earth like planets from your sofa"

In the auditorium, Josie decided to do a selfie, sorry about the lighting,

but we were in a hurry and just being a bit crazy.

Afterwards we had to walk back through the busy city.
Saw a really cool fun busker and I hoped to have a bit of fun with him and the crowd, but the "cross now" buzzer sounded and we were pretty much dragged across the road as everyone crossed.



At home now, in male mode, prepping for tonight's dinner, blogging ofcourse while the oven warms up, and think about you and hoping you have a great weekend.

Got to the pools again

With school camp and daylight savings, it's been a couple of weeks since my last swim.
Decided to wear my blue KMart one piece.
The attendant was writing up her sign for the day "be original because a copy isn't worth...." she was still writing as I entered, but made me smile.
Really, I mean how many other genetically male swimmers do you think there were in a womens one piece with breast forms and hairy legs. Hope I can get in for a leg wax today.
