Our First Wedding Anniversary

It has already been one year since we said “I do” to each other and became Mr & Mrs Xu (to those of you who are a little confused, although our wedding was held in April this year, we actually signed our marriage papers last year). I still remember that day very clearly and vividly, as if it were only yesterday. Both of us happy and excited, I was a little nervous too. It was one of the happiest moments in my life.

Due to DH’s FIFO roster, we already knew we wouldn’t be together to celebrate our first wedding anniversary today. Therefore, we went out for a nice dinner last Monday at Victoria Station.

We had Caesar salad, bacon, shaved parmesan, and croutons for Entree. Didn’t managed to get a photo of our Entree as we were too hungry!! Hahahaha :mrgreen: . For our Mains, Tian had Reef & Beef (tenderloin & prawns), Seafood medley (Patagonian toothfish, prawns & scallops, lime leaf butter sauce, roquet capsicum salad) for myself, and Rosemary & garlic roast potatoes as a sidedish. Lastly, we shared a baked white chocolate cheesecake with warm berry compote for dessert. Sounds yummy right? :razz:

Anyway, we only had one photo of ourselves that night. Pretty hard to take a photo of ourselves anyway and it’s even harder if it’s taken with Tian. You all should know that by now. Excuse my red chubby face. Just had a sip of white wine :oops: . This is definitely a very unflattering photo of myself but what the heck :wink: .

Beauty & The Beast

Now I wonder who’s the Beauty and who’s the Beast?? :roll:

Oh Happy Day :)

I’m going to keep this really short and simple. DH is back and the two packages are finally here :mrgreen:

Gloomy Week

It’s been one gloomy week and I hope this cloud will go away soon. Firstly, it’s been raining every single day since last week and according to the weather forecast, it will continue to rain until end of this week. Meaning, it’s hard doing your laundry and I don’t have a dryer at home. So what do you do? Hang all the laundry inside the house, everywhere. Yes. It’s a mess and it’ll take a least a few days for them to get dry properly.

Secondly, I finally made a decision to purchase a yarn winder and skeiner from Petlins. The total costs is $110 including shipping. I have been so excited about it and waiting anxiously for the package to arrive. Mind you, I contacted the seller and was informed that the package has been posted on the 11th July and it’s almost 3 weeks now and still no sign of the package!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Thirdly, I joined #3 Aussie Swap on Ravelry and was told that my swap package has been posted about 2 weeks ago and still no sign of this package too!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

How can I not received 2 packages?????? What is Auspost doing with my mail??? Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I seldom rant but this is just too much!!! I’m upset!! I’m mad!!! I’m angry!!! I’m sad!!! I’m dissappointed!!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:

I hope these packages will turn up soon. Please don’t be lost mail. Sigh…

I suppose the weather kinda match how I’m feeling right now. The only upside to all these rain is that I get to see rainbows almost everyday.
