I was tagged by the very talented Alicia at The Red Deer (warning her cupcakes are amazing and very very tempting!)

8 Things I'm Looking Forward To:

1. Saturday date night dinner with Jase - its dijon crumbed lamb rack and potato bake this week -yum!
2. The long weekend (this coming weekend) so that we can start the paving of our laundry garden.
3. My spa day that I have booked with mum for our Mothers day get together (complete with private room in the bath house, robes, slippers, drinks and food and facials, pedicures and massages!).
4. My upcoming horse comps - a dressage comp and a Hunter trial, challenging and so fun!
5. Starting our house extensions in the next few months.
6. Elka's first birthday and her party in June.
7. Getting to wear all my gorgeous winter boots and outfits since it is getting cold now.
8. My massage and facial at Pure Indulgence that I booked for the end of May.

8 Things I did yesterday
1. Took my cat to the vet for a tooth operation.
2. Spent way too much on the groceries stocking up just in case.
3. Put Elka's hair in pigtails for the first time ever.
4. Cooked ham, pineapple and cheese crepes for dinner - yum!
5. Put the horses heavy night rugs on for the first time this year - its getting cold!
6. Went to the library to get some mags and trashy books to read.
7. Laughed with Jase over seeing a funny story of an old uni friend in the papers here
8. Scrubbed the kitchen splash back tiles with a toothbrush

8 Things I Wish I could do

1. Sew clothes like my mum (or the people on Project Runway!).
2. Relax and rest - I cant sit still
3. Have enough time to publish some new scientific papers - I have the work ready to go but no time to tidy it into publications.
4. Curl my hair decently.
5. Get back to reading better quality books rather than light chick lit.
6. Get Sam (the horse) to competition standard but I barely have time to keep Spech fit and trained.
7. Finish the ironing and not have the basket fill back up straight away!
8. Not be a grumpy cow when I am tired

8 Shows I Watch
1. Americas Next Top Model
2. Gruen Transfer
3. Stylista
4. Project Runway
5. Hills
6. Gossip Girl
7. The News
8. The Footy (NRL)

I am feeling too lazy to tag people this morning (and Elka is trying to play with cat food so I need to go) so feel free to consider yourself tagged if you are reading this and answer it for yourself :)

About Me

My Photo
Amy
I am 30 years old, am a microbiologist with a PhD and love looking after my little farm. I compete in dressage and showjumping with my horses. I have a passion for shopping and a weakness for pretty clothes, shoes and handbags. My husband and I have a gorgeous toddler called Elka and a little bub named Bronte. I am a mother who works and has a career - just don't call me a "working mother". I don't do inside hobbies and craft and have only successfully sewn two things in my life that weren't ripped horserugs. The scientist in me makes me a little cynical and I am more likely to tell you about my life and events then give you a pretty polaroid style picture and an inspiring quote. Not for everyone but I have a bad memory and blogging is my way of recording life :)
