Slaving away

Well, I’ve had a busy last few days I gotta tell ya! Work occured as per usual on Friday, and I thought it would also occur as per usual on Saturday, however, it became apparent that was not to be the case when my casually employed co-worker failed to turn up. Fortunately, the day wasn’t too busy, and I even got a few minutes to make a cup of tea and/or sit on my arse and wait for customers. Turns out he fell asleep on the train and woke up in Darra - luck him.

That afternoon, Gary and Ro came over for lunch, followed by Dean, Bryce and I going flying. We flew Dean’s plane which wasn’t so bad - he’s still getting used to the new controls. It was hoped that Bryce would be able to have a fly, but on the last fly before handing over to him, Dean crashed hard, breaking his plane for a while. Poor Bryce. So I took the opportunity to fly my plane, and had a merry old time. I was pullin off loops and inverted flight and all that jazz. By this time, Mum and a drunk Ro (thanks to dad) arrived to have a watch. I attempted to hand the controls over to Bryce, but my plane was too temperamental and especially too fast, so Bryce only really got to hold the controls before I had to avoid trees and ground. On the final throw, the plane torque rolled before cartwheeling and snapping shit, as well as cutting a wire to the servo - easy repair though luckily.

Sunday morning Ben (my trainer and cousin Amy’s BF) came over to collect some furniture which ended up being a run to the dump first, followed by lunch, then moving furniture. Got a lot done, but it also took a long time, and energy My trailer reversing skills received a good test, backing into B&A’s place, but I romped it in, first go! Go me. I went from there on to an unnoficial work do at a bowls club at Breaky Creek, which was nice, but I lacked enthusiasm due to exhaustion, so I went home to be greeted by B&K&K after a big day at the Gold Coast.

And of course today, I really enjoyed myself just bummin round today, being my day off. I got a few meanial things done before heading off to training, followed by a glorious dinner of lasagne - Props to Amy, followed by heckling big brother.

Tonight’s exercises: 25kg standing pec presses, 20kg dumbell bench press, 12.5kg shoulder press, body-weight tricep dips - presumed weakest link.
