my 101 list

I have been a little busy lately, not only sorting my life out (and in the process crossing off wee things off my 101 list!) but trying to be a better person too, i think im a pretty good person, always (like anyone i guess, we are only human) have room for improvement! im working especially on how i parent my children, i have a wee way to go but im proud of what i have accomplished so far.

Kate, you have to tell me (yes... again... lol) how to cross off my list! i think it goes
OK, the 101 List, what have i done lately?

#11 - in a roundabout way this is done, we have gone into partnership with a couple of other people and our business is no longer our business, im not going to go into a lot of detail but its a fantastic way to grow the business and a great opportunity for us as a family.

#12 - we are working on this, seriously looking to purchase a house, i must say though, some RE agents just SUCK! and im not the type of person to be talked to like im a peice of shit (some - not all agents, just thought i would clarify!) and i have clashed with quite a few agents, some dont return ph calls, emails, msgs, some are very rude and arrogant... add to that the fact that we are looking for our first home in Auckland where the prices are just stupid, and the only areas that we can afford are basically scumsville... we drove through one area 5pmish last night, tagging everywhere, people OPENLY doing drugs on the street, dogs everywhere... it just breaks your heart really that THIS is the area that you can afford to buy, the total lack of respect for other people, themselves, other peoples property and their own property, i just dont get it. we went through at that time yesterday evening because its about the time we like to go for a walk, and we thought that we would see what was around... lets just say we will not be going anywhere near there again. we will be thinking outside the square a little bit and doing some investigating, but hey, at least we are working on it!

#24 - Done, my birthday bbq was very cool and both Kate and Emily agreed that this was #24 done, new and old friends coming together and meeting :) was lovely

#25 - meet new friends, through various sources i have met plenty of new friends recently, its been really neat, and i feel very blessed to have them in my life. as a result, i usually have something on every day, lol so keeping very busy too!

#26 - i will always make time for all of my friends new and old, i love nothing more than having a goss with a good friend, we know each other well, we know each others lives, its comfortable, there is nothing new, and i like that. i love how when i go shopping with Kate, we have our "usual carparks" our "usual place" to meet, our "usual cafe" to go to for coffee, its comfy and its nice, and its always so neat to have a good goss/bitch!

#39 - pass my full licence, well this morning i did just that, i passed, i was so "lucky" in that not only did i have the testing dude, but i had the moderating dude who was moderating the testing dude and myself.... ohhh the joy... the test was OKKK i wouldnt want to repeat it again anytime soon though! but right at the end i had to parallel park.... i didnt even do that for my restricted 10 years ago! (yeah, its been that long! slack aye!) lol but i did ok!

#56 - our visa cards are both now paid off in full, one is sitting in credit, one is a fuel card for the company. done!

#60 - ok i have cheated here a bit... i worked out where the automatic mode was! easy and done! :)

so as you can see i have been busy, ive had sooo many more things go on as well, but im sure this is enough for now :)
