36 and counting...

Another birthday...

I have had a lovely day...after a rather rough night where Luka vomited seven times so it felt like I was up every half hour. After eventually giving up on sleep and getting up at 7am,  I managed to enjoy some me-time while Seiji took Rai to his absurdly early Saturday morning swimming class (8am - what was I thinking?!). Cup of tea, Vogels with vegemite, national radio, blogs, emails...vacuuming. Such an exciting life!

I did buy some rather nice lingerie thanks to a voucher deal and a present from a friend. Also some false eyelashes.

We went out to Bella Italia for lunch then all came home to pass out for an afternoon siesta. We were all up again by 3pm and went to a garden centre where I used the money from my Japanese mother-in-law to buy some plants. Then to Queensgate to buy new sandals.

Now I am enjoying a beer while writing this, listening to the concert programme (Rai's choice - he just did his take on ballet for me - with more protruding bottom than I think the Royal NZ Ballet would appreciate) and watching Seiji produce some izayaka-like treats (sashimi and tataki amongst them : )).

It has been a good day.
