Last Weekend.


I have a blurred recall of my last weekend. It went by so fast. Nothing really registered. I had made full plans for the 3 days and only managed to do maybe 10% of it.. Sigh...

Mum has been commenting that the days are getting shorter now so I know that its not only me who can't fit everything in that 24hrs minus 8hrs for sleeping etc etc

We (my family) went to Nadi Temple on Sunday.. yeah again!! I have sort of put it into our family outing calendar that we visit this temple once a month. Dad seems to be enjoying it. I love seeing him make the rounds of the temples like a kid. So so cute. This temple was built in 1996-1997. I visited it for the first time only after returning from India and I still marvel at the workmanship. Its really beautiful and the main thing is that its not overly crowded whenever we visit - i.e. @ 6a.m.

Heres a small extract on it

I have yet to buy a camera... every Saturday I run out of time and do not get a chance to really look around. Hopefully I'll do it this weekend. Once thats done I'll get loads of pics loaded.

A major highlight of the weekend was that I got to touch base with a great friend of mine. Infact he called me and we talked for a short time. But the interesting bit is that he might not be single for long. I like to think of it as disappointing :( but as a friend I'm happy for him... Hopefully he'll keep in touch to give me the news soon...

Thats it from me today...
