Holidays, Misty, and blogging every day.
I don’t have the stamina to blog every day.
That, and exciting things don’t happen to me every day.
Admire people like Bonnie who keep me updated and entertained so frequently.

But my family is going on holidays this weekend- down to the Gold Coast. Without me (this is worth blogging about). It is the first family holiday they will go on without me. It hasn’t bothered me till now, when I have actually started to think about it. Before I was just disappointed that they were going when we had thing to finish off on the house. The house I desperately want to move in to.
But alas, I am now the babysitter.
My beautiful Misty will be lonely (and hungry) at home by herself, so Luke and I have been asked to feed her (one assumes this is twice a day), and to also maybe stay the night a few times so she’s not lonely. And also, if Luke could do Uni work there, then Misty will have company some days.
This kind of makes me excited. I love Misty. And it means I am still needed and still important. I think Luke should do uni work at work with me though, because I am lonely. You would be too if you basically lived alone- just seeing your husband on Wednesday night, Friday night (when you have youth), and Saturday (when you’re working on the house).
Okay, so that is only the last week, and I usually see him on Monday and Sunday nights as well- BUT it doesn’t change the fact that it’s true this week. At least Luke is feeling the same way. This morning he was hugging me and wouldn’t let me get out of bed to get ready for work. I think this is partly and missing me thing, and partly a “I am so tired I want to die” thing. And you would be too if you were in a musical that practiced as much as his does…
So we both agree that maybe being in this musical after we’d been married for such a short time wasn’t the best of ideas- but hey, it was a good opportunity, and we have learnt a lot from this time together/ apart. On Sunday Luke and I will have been married for six months, but it feels like we’ve always been together.

I am in your post !!! WOW !! How cool is that ?!
So, tell me. When is this production happening that Luke has been working so hard on !? Email me if you don’t want it on the web …
I really enjoy reading your blog. It’s refreshing to read the going-ons of a newly wed couple. Rory and I celebrated our 10th anniversary this year ! While sometimes I still feel like we are newly wed … because life with him is still so fresh and exciting, I also read your posts and remember … oh yeah, I remember when we were like that. The newness. The adjustments. Things we have just settled into comfortably now and don’t worry about anymore. It’s neat to see you guys working through some of that stuff.
