  1. Off to a bucks night. Surely I'm too old for this...
  2. Guinnea pig maintenance 101 - nails clipped and fat bodies washed. Two very bloody unhappy guinnea pigs :)
  3. Finally put an offer in on a house. Not sure yet if that was the hard bit or the easy bit...
  4. The coaches at Soccatoos are awesome. 3 year olds running around playing soccer and they are somehow able to keep them all in tow? Respect!
  5. Maybe the broker meant 24-48 days and I misheard 24-48 hours. Maybe that's why I'm still stalling, still waiting, still hoping like hell...
  6. Struggling to get this bloody home loan application over the loan. The "two days until an answer" expectation well and truly shot to hell.
  7. Passing out on the train today. Long couple of weeks. This is recovery time.
  8. Damn. Just as he was getting into it he crashed into another kid and hit the deck head first... Poor little guy :(
  9. @rockclimberlife Nice one! Hope it's going well. Feeling like this will be the first truly grown up thing I've really done. Weirds me out.
  10. Toby is killing it at preschool soccer today :)
  11. Last chance dinner out before we buy our own home and become poor for the rest of our lives.
  12. Missed climbing tonight. Birthday dinner with Candice at Summer Salt. Very expensive. Very very nice...
  13. Kinda hard to get psyched about going climbing at 9 oclock at night...
  14. Tell me advertising doesn't work with children... Toby (3) wandering past singing the Pillow Pet jingle with Charley (7) harmonizing.
  15. Pity her team (the Vixens) are losing ;)
  16. Hoping this rates as a good Mothers Day. Candice is at the netball watching her favorite team. I'm cooking and cleaning... :)
  17. Top day of climbing. Hit some really nice leads. Not killing the grades, but building a good volume of climbs at my redpoint level. Sore...
  18. What's with the gym today? 9:30 open and I'm already seeing 20 or 30 people? What happened to the great outdoors people?
  19. @BlueFoxCA @ginabegin Power snakes ... As much a part of Australian climbing as the Blue Mountains? Possibly not, but definitely a staple :)
  20. @ginabegin Sydney, Australia
