Made it home safely!

I am home! Still have a couple of days before I start my new job, but I am still busy, busy, busy doing very exciting things. For example, tomorrow I am going to be cleaning my deck in preparation for resealing it, and cleaning out the gutters. Very exciting indeed! Between all the jobs to be done, and interstate guests, I haven't been able to find a lot of time to either blog or read! Tonight I have a couple of hours and then my next houseguest arrives, I think for a couple of days. Not really a hundred percent sure how long he is staying. I am sure I will be told when I really need to know!

I will have had two weeks off of work, but I think I will be going to my new job to get a rest! I have been back in Adelaide for the last few days, which is where I spent my teenage years. I have been known to go over there and keep a very low profile, only seeing a select few people, but this time I saw a lot of people from my past, and I had a fantastic time! I won't be hiding so much when I go over in future! I don't know why I felt the need to previously! Some deep seated fear or uncomfortableness I guess.

I was very grateful to receive a couple of awards despite my lack of blogging while I was away!

First I would like to thank Lizzy from Historically Obsessed who gave me the Superior Scribbler award! Thanks Lizzy!




Thanks also to Dolleygurl from The Maiden's Court who gave me a Top Blog Commenter Award!



In honour of having spent time in Adelaide, I thought that I would post the video of the new Guy Sebastian song. Guy was the winner of the first season of Australian Idol, and grew up not far from where I used to live! After being very popular for his first couple of albums, there was a bit of a lull in popularity terms, but I really like this new single, and it seems to be doing very well for him!
