Slackarse roundup of recent life history!

Well it's 2010 and my blogging has been so sporadic over the past few months that there is a huge backlog of personal-life-type stuff that I will try and address in some posts in the near future.

In summary:

Gam and I have moved into our first house and now live in Moorooka.

Our little mate Keith Richards passed away only a few days after we moved in, and every time I throw away a scrap of vegie or fruit into the compost I miss him :(

I'm roughly twice the size I was 6 months ago -I'm now bigger in the sagittal plane than the coronal plane, i.e. I'm now bigger from front to back than side to side! Ok, 'only' 20% bigger, going by body weight, but that's still pretty huge. I blame Gam Jr for all of it, of course...

Gam now works in Goodna and doesn't have the same godawful 45 minute (each way) commute to Beenleigh every day.

Feifei and Xiaoxiao love living in the new house, and Xiaoxiao has a really bad haircut.

Gam has been busting his guts doing all sorts of handyman stuff around the house (though at times unimportant things tend to become a bit of an obsession!).

Just before Christmas we travelled to Farmidale Armidale for my lovely cousin Rach's wedding, where I got to play the part of Fat Bridesmaid (or 'the pregnant one'). It was a very full-on Christian wedding ceremony and, shall we say, worthy of some further comment.

We have a Roomba. Awesomest household appliance ever. Gam might disagree, and it's got some hot competition from the ice-cream maker he gave me for my birthday... but the ice-cream maker doesn't do the housework!!

Um, I've probably forgotten lots of stuff, but there you go. I wasn't going to make any new year's resolutions either, but I did resolve to be much less slack about updating the blog... let's see how that goes :)
