Posting once a fortnight really isn't up to scratch, is it!
So, what have I been doing in the meantime?
Had a great trip to Queenstown. Got really cheap (Wellington to Queenstown direct for $69) flights off grab-a-seat a while back, so Craig and I flew down Tuesday morning and back Thursday afternoon. Got cheap accommodation off wotif too, so that left me heaps of money to spend on clothes and fabulous Central Otago pinot noir!
The weather was fabulous - typical South Island winter days where the temperature stayed under 10 degrees, but it was so still and sunny it didn't matter. We spent most of time just wandering around and stopping for coffee, but did get a car one day so we could go to Arrowtown and visit a few vineyards as well.
Loved it so much we're going to head back down that way for a couple of weeks after Christmas and do some camping.
Craig has joined the gym too, so now I'm back into much better exercise habits. Last week we managed three visits to the gym and two nice long walks.
Food - mostly good. Weighed dead on 80kg last Tuesday, so I've managed to shave off a kilo.
Rugby has now finished for my lot for the season. I was at the stadium to watch Tana's last game on Saturday too - yes, I did cry when he left the field. Sook!
That's about all the (minor) excitement in my life.

Aww nice to see you havn't forgotten about us all entirely.... how about a picc of the man????? We are all dying to see him, nosey tarts the lot of us! Your trip to Queenstown sounded neat.... cold though.
10 degrees? eek. We had 24 here today which was nice, i'll be glad when spring is here. I'm sick of the cold and I don't have anyone to keep me warm anymore, well .... a three year old but you know - i'm looking for something bigger hehehe. Actually no i'm not, i'm over the whole drama of men for a while. Not that i'm turning gay. Although it does double your chances of picking up. HA HA HA HA HA. Kidding .....
Glad you're happy and enjoying life.
That's great Craig joined the gym too - it will be easier for you to support and encourage each other's exercise habits. Three visits in a week is pretty good!
Oh and by the way: last week it was 40 degrees C here. No, that's not a typo.
Queenstown is gorgeous!
I was given one of those mystery weekends and we ended up in Queenstown and it was the coldest weekend in 40 years, a cool -4 degree's....brrrrr but still beautiful. We also went to Arrowtown and thought it was very quaint and had a lovely stroll down the main little street.
I also had a tear when Tana played his last game........everyone is gunna miss that man.
Hey
Sounds like you had a great time in queentown!
I was at the rugby too, will miss Tana lots!
