markets, river, races

Just a catch up before christmas! I'm not as good as Em to keep this up but here we go with the last few months in a nut shell. I should really be studying and finishing my diploma!!!!!! BUT this got more interesting. I have been getting up early every day and nutting away at it and feel like ill be able to finish it very soon, thank goodness, 3 years in the making and very loyal clients who keep coming back regardless of being able to claim their massages. Ill be entering the new year as a fully qualified massaged therapist FINALLY!

So I have been going pretty nuts with doTERRA and have decided it was consuming my life too much though very successful, I have decided to slow it down a notch, keep the rank that im in and build on it as it comes, instead of busting my butt trying to reach the next rank etc. I am enjoying it so much more. it is a pretty amazing company, great product and some serious earning potential, which I've decided will now be our holiday funding. I have been doing a lot of market stalls lately which ill finish up with this year and wont really do many more as its a lot of work lugging things around and for not much return. I do love my market stall though, and it is a great community meeting up with the same faces each market.
We have gone out to the coly farm a few times to visit Suv, Amanda and their now 3 kiddies, Isla, Piper and new addition Leo! Cutest kids alive. Ive gone out shootin' with the boys which was a scary experience hooning through the paddocks after roos. And we have just recently come back from a camping trip in Carathool by the river. Most perfect tim eto go camping, with not mozzies, not too hot and cool enough for a fire. But lots of FLIES, much to Ruby's annoyance, to which I replied "you're Australian, get used to it."
finally got a fish!

In between working we've had a few dress up events such as the musos ball, a very popular event in Griffith for all ages to dress up in ball attire and listen to all of the main bands in Griffith. Was a good mix of new and old music, and just fun to be able to dress up. Damien was sick at the last minute so wasted his ticket, but I had fun solo. Then we had the races! Always a fun day, and i actually went in the fashions for the first time, a very nerve racking experience that I don't need to do again. But the day was fun and full of champers, I lost $10 on the horses and stopped my betting there.

Ive recently decorated out house finally!! After not wanting to spend any money on it as we didn't really know what we were doing with it. We have decided to buy Di's house, that Damien grew up in! She is renovating her unit which she will move into soon and then we will move into her place. Renovate the house we're in now, fix up the wall we ripped down over a year ago, and sell it. It feels so good knowing what we are doing with ourselves finally, hence iv'e gone nuts buying stuff for the new place. I already feel better living surrounded by things that I love and how I want my house set up. But the credit card doesn't enjoy it.

The 30ths have started which has been fun dressing up for themes which I have missed doing. Recently going to a friend Sara Wylee's 30ths in 80s theme clothes. Annoying that Em has all of the costumes in Albury, but I made do with a double denim outfit and Ruby's plastic necklaces. I turned 29 also! Last year of my 20s. We went out to dinner with the family which was nice. I went to Albury that weekend for a conference and to see Em and Steve, doing the traditional park run, but I am defiantly out of form, needing to walk most of it. I have mainly been doing my yoga, and loving it as usual. Getting back into the gym now also and feeling good.
