Lazy days and Sundays

It's been a quiet few days in the tough household. I have to admit my thoughts have been firmly set on graduation, now that I know for sure that I can go. Between dwelling on possible venues for my graduation dinner, to booking accommodation and looking online for a dress I havent thought of much else! I have endeavoured to get as much housework done as I could, knowing that next week will be another busy week and knowing that soon I will be full time. As much as I love my time at home, I am actually looking forward to working the same days as everyone else....my days off aren't as special because I get four instead of two. Plus me working full time will allow us to pay for some stuff coming up - graduation, moving to Toowoomba, and perhaps a new washing machine since our current one sounds like its going to take off every time we use it!!!!

I have admit I'm starting to really miss facebook. Which is precisely the reason why I need to NOT use it....its a fricken WEBSITE I shouldnt feel like that! LOL I have been missing softdrinks at home too, but so far I have no succumbed, despite being tempted the other day! The no potato thing is actually going really well however, I dont' seem to be doing too badly. BTW Just so everyone knows.....mashed cauliflower is NOT in ANY way shape or form even SIMILAR to mashed potato.....nomatter WHAT Tony Ferguson says!!!!!

Work seems to be going really well....I haven't fallen behind and so far I'm keeping up with what I have to do. Monday morning will be breezy because I only have a couple of cases to enter in, and I have the whole morning to do it in because I'm not on the phones til Monday arvo. But thankfully it will give me a chance to work on my plp (professional learning plan) and have that all in place, so that I can tailor what I do with the deparment to my own career goals. I've been thinking alot lately about which team I would like to work in next, and I'm leaning towards doing something with placement.....I dont think I have the stomach for I&A as much as I'd like to think I do, but working with foster families, or even training foster families would be fascinating. Of course, my eventual goal still remains to represent the department in family court....getting TAOS and such for kids and going into court for the department. Another area I'd like to work in is adoption....it would be a pretty amazing job matching up children with adoptive families.

Well best be off...time to clean up and head to dreamland!!! Til next time loyal readers! :P
