Efficiency

It would seem that Gene and I have been rather efficient over the last few days. Since my last post we've:
- watched all of season 1 of Love My Way which we both really enjoyed and even got Mum interested in. After we watched the first episode we watched the remaining nine the next day.
- headed to our first day of work where we proceeded to finished two days of work in just under one

Okay so that's not the greatest list of achievements in the world but it makes me think that we've at least done something!

I've also finished one of my socks and have started the second sock. After this I've promised myself that I'll start on Lisa's socks again which I started on while I was in Doha (complete with tailored design) then proceeded to lose the pattern traipsing around Europe. Typical! Anyhow, I've found a prettier variegated cotton yarn to make them from instead of the angora/cotton/wool blend which would have been bulky.

In terms of my location for the near future I have no set plans still. At this stage I'm not heading to Darwin (didn't get the job and due to poor timing on my part realised that it was good job but not what I wanted to do. Worked out well for both parties I think!) Still really keen to head overseas though. Shall have to look into this a bit more I think.

Well I'm off for a girly day of haircuts and manicures, just have to go and wake Mum up first...

Love My Way- I cried from Episodes 8-10. *sniff*

Knitting- hey, what happened to my Indonesia present?

Hair- love the cut. Already told you, but wanted to reiterate that it looks really cool. And assymetrical, which I am not sure is deliberate, or simple an optical illusion or what, considering it's a bob... buit it's cool!

LMW - Yeah I cried too but in a quiet "try not to let Gene and Mum notice" kind of way. Got a huge hug from Mum afterwards... she only started really watching from Episode 8.

Yeah I still have your necklace! I'll pass it on next time I see you... should make another one... maybe something to keep you warm in Europe... hmmm Any requests?

Hair - Thanks! It's strange not to have the weight of longer hair but it's kinda cool. Assymetry was planned by the hair dresser and I went with it to see if I could do it. (I like symmetry but this is good so far).
