The Weeklies Number 4 (Technically Fortnightly)

This Week - 14/04/12 till 28/04/12
Well I don't know about you but I'm a tad tired. It's been a full on 2 weeks of fun with the V8's and moving house plus having work and Miss Midget.
My highlight of the week was - Definitely the V8's and INXS, as you saw from my previous post about my petrol head weekend we had lots of fun.
My low point of the week was - Packing boxes :( and Miss Midget getting a tad out of whack due to all the changes. Getting better though. having a quiet weekend to get a routine going now.


My favourite time wasting device or application was - Haven't really had a chance to time waste lately with everything thats been happening :(


My favourite website this week was - No stand out favourites this fortnight. Haven't had time to go exploring :(.
My favouritte article this fortnight goes to this beauty - Nanny Pam you'll love this one :)


My favourite song this week - Ok so I'm admitting to it I liked Carly Rae Jepsen's song "Call Me Baby", I got it stuck in my head and can't get it out :(


My favourite photo - This one was taken back March by our lovely childcare lady Nanny Pam. I stuck it on Instagram the other day and had a play with the filters and this is what I came up with. Pretty cool I thought :)

My favourite saying -
 

Things to look forward to in the week to come - Being able to get settled again properly. Yay to having space again :).

Well thats that. Done and dusted for another week :)


Feel free to tell me what you think, Anything you would recommend and stuff like that.

My Petrol Head Weekend

Well my weekend just been was awesome.
Some of you may of seen my posts and others may of wondered where I was as I'd gone quiet again.
For those of you that don't know I went down to the Hamilton ITM 400 - V8's Supercar racing.

We couldn't of wished for better weather. Both days were goregous.

The V8's as always were highly entertaining as well as the other races (NZ V8's, Touring cars etc).

Saturday night as we'd brought tickets to the V8's this entitled us to go along to INXS for free. The concert was brilliant. They did a awesome job and by the end of the night I had sore feet from bopping around dancing, haven't done that in ages.

So heres a few photos from the weekends events :)

Me with Russell Ingall

The view from my seat of the 3rd corner

One of the cars (Touring Car I think) ended up in a wall after the corner threw him out. He had to get towed away

My view of the stage for the INXS concert

My view of the stage - I stayed where I was after the concert to wait for everyone to leave. Didn't realise how close I'd gotten to the stage till I took this photo :)

So now I wait till Bathurst in October - I normally only do the V8 Petrol head thing 2x a year, Hamilton and Bathurst.
This years Hamilton street race was the last though. Be interesting to see where they take it next. Fingers crossed they sort it out soon so they can get ready for next year. Would hate think they're going to miss us out next year.

Miss Midget also had a brilliant weekend being spoilt rotten by her Nanny J. She's still recovering having put herself to bed last night and tonight at 5:30pm.

Well thats it from me, I have boxes that won't pack themselves (I should know, I've waited long enough them to start but it appears they are not co-operating tonight).
Big day tomorrow - Moving Day.

Wish me luck and good weather

The Weeklies Number 3

This Week - 07/04/12 till 13/04/12

Well it's that time again.

My highlight of the week was - Playing with the Bubble Snake Maker with Miss Midget over the long weekend. Lots of fun seeing the different ways we could squish the bubbles. She seemed to enjoy when both myself and her would jump on one end of the bubbles each and squish them in our toes :).
Also car passing a warrant on Wednesday was pretty good

My low point of the week was - Trying to figure out when I'm moving and when I can give me car up and doing a over all juggling act.

My favourite time wasting device or application was - Still stuck on DragonVale. In saying that i have found it interesting to go back and check my guide on Snapguide and see how many likes and views I've had - 405 views and 57 people like the guide :).


My favourite website this week was - I actually haven't spent that much time on the internet this week. I haven't been home trawling the web like I normally would :).
This week I decided to pick Twitter. I have lots of fun on this site. Especially on Wednesday nights when watching Almighty Johnsons on TV3. This is fun for a few reason - 1) because if you use twitter right you can end up in a conversation with lots of people watching the same thing. It's like being with your mates, everyone quoting one liners from the show and just generally enjoying the show.
2) I follow some of the stars and the Producer/Director of the show as well as a few behind the scenes info which is really cool. You can end up in a conversation with them as well which is always funny to. My little buzz from a couple of weeks ago was when Simon Bennett (The Producer) started following me back :).

Ok I can hear you all now thinking "God your a geek" - Well yes I am and anyone who has spent anytime with me will know that I'm good with useless information and even more so  with useless information about TV and Movies so to have Simon following me is rather cool and to be able to repeat some of the info from the Almighty Johnson Twitter Sessions is pretty cool to lol.

My favourite song this week (New) - Babysittesr Circus - Everythings gonna be alright :) Click here to watch the video. It's such a awesome song and I really like the way they have done the video :) - The making of it is pretty cool to (click here to watch that)

My favourite photo -

I think this photo speaks for itsef :)

Saying of the week -

 Things to look forward to in the week to come (New) - So next weekend I'm heading down to Hamilton to the V8 Super Cars. Should be a good weekend. It's also a Miss Midget free weekend as she will be with her Nanny J so watch out Waikato :).
Oh and also INXS are playing as part of the weekends festivities so fully looking forward that as well :). Awesome cars, Good Music and fingers crossed for fine weather. Which brings me to Next Weeks "Weeklies" may either be early as in on Thursday or extremely late and on the Monday. We'll see how we go. We also having moving day in there somewhere. So if you don't hear from me don't worry I promise I'll be back at the very latest by the 27th (Could make the next "Weeklies" a one off "Fortnight-lies"

Well thats that. Done and dusted for another week :)

Feel free to tell me what you think, Anything you would recommend and stuff like that.

So will post something later on but till then have a good weekend :)

Moving House - Argh

So Miss Midget and I are on the move. Don't worry we're not going far. Just back to where we started from originally (Long story. Sorry not going into it on here :)).


So now I have to sort out our stuff and get ready for moving. Still debating on which day. We can move whenever we like, its just a space issue at the moment.
So now the list making starts and the whole having to find all my boxes and things to make sure I have everything. Oh the joys of it all. I'm lucky my parents are able to collect boxes for me etc but it's the whole packing up Miss Midgets toys while she's not around (Trying to pack Miss Midgets stuff up would be a nightmare if she's watching because she'd want everything I'm trying to pack).

We also have to find someone to look after Miss Midget for the morning or whatever so I can move boxes and furniture without having to worry about where she has escaped to.


So next is to find the man power. That on it's own is fun. The other half works shift work and will be working weekends so some of the weekends are out, then there is my father who said he would help only can on weekends.


There is also the factor of I can move this weekend and be in a mess for a week until old flatmate move out or I'll have to wait till the 25th  as we're away the weekend starting the 20th in Hamilton for the V8 Super Cars.

So in all reality there is no winning here. It's going to be a huge mess regardless of what I plan. Oh the joys of it all. Don't worry I'll keep you posted on my progress. It's either going to be a long drawn out process or a quick completely unorganized mess.

Wish me luck :)
