Linky Lovin' Friday {30th January 2015} // Blogging

{Graffiti in an alley in Perth}

I'm going on a girl's night tonight and I can't freakin' wait! It's been waaaay too long between drinks (literally!) and I'm looking forward to hanging with some awesome chicks, eating good food and maybe even singing some karaoke. The karaoke will totally depend on how well the drinks are going down, but never say never!

It's been a bit of a long week, even with my first child-free day in a long time on Tuesday when Zee had her first day at Daycare while Punky moved on up to the 'big-kids' room. I got so much done with no children in the house, and I even managed to sit down to eat my lunch and watch a bit of TV!

Wednesday was my Tafe orientation, and to say I felt a small rush of pleasure upon seeing the studio we'll be using is an understatement. I am so ready for this course I can't even tell you. I'm pretty sure come next Thursday though my mind is going to be so filled with all of the stuff that I don't know if I'll even manage a Linky Lovin' Friday post. So you've been warned. If anyone wants to guest post one for me, with your favourite links, let me know. As long as you get it to me by 8pm Thursday night it will go live Friday. Just putting it out there!

It was a very interesting mix of people at the orientation and I was a little disappointed to learn that one of the ladies I got on well with is actually doing the course part-time in the evenings. She was really nice and in a similar situation to me (married, 2 kids, yada, yada, yada) but hopefully we'll see each other around.

There was a fairly broad range of ages too, with a few younger kids, a couple of others around the same age as me (30s) and then one or two older people. I think it's going to be fun! As long as the young people walk a bit quicker than they did while we were being given a tour of the facilities, it should all work out fine. Have I mentioned before how much I hate slow-walkers? Soooo annoying.

Anyway, with all of that going on and getting things ready and organised for my start next week I haven't had a lot of time to spend reading and surfing the net, but I have found a few good gems which I've linked to below...

I'm Just a Mum by Big Words - Seriously great post. I've been guilty of this myself and it's definitely time to stop!

Open Home by The Plumbette - A very interesting analogy by Bec, and I have to say that the comments themself are really worth the read too.

Farewell School Holidays by The Uneducated Opinion - I loved this post, it's just brilliant, and I will be re-reading this when my time for proper school holiday periods with the girls comes around.

10 Useful Apps for the Whole Family by Fit Mother Hubbard - Anita has found some awesome apps and shared them in this post. If you're looking for new apps for yourself and the kids you'll want to check this post out.

What have you been reading this week? Seen anything good? And do I need to award a Tosser Trophy to Abbott for the whole wedging himself up Prince Phillip's arse thing or is it just a given?
