Week passings..
Well.. on Thursday NIGHT, i am so happy to report that my house has indeed STAYED clean. YAY!!! Deb is so improving! haha the only thing that needed some work on was the laundry - because it was rainy last week i hadnt done any loads..
So today I had to do about 4 loads of laundry.. bah but at least its nearly all done (its washing as I speak/blog). My house is still in reasonable order, though I know I still have lotsa work to do - ie, wash the dishes, change the bedsheets, clear the couch... but at least I can see the floor. HAH!
Its the countdown.. 3 more weeks till Joy's wedding! So i have 3 weeks to whip my ass into shape. I will be going on a healthier diet, and gymming almost everyday!!! WHOOPPEEDDOOO...
I've found a new saying that I find is very relevant for me now.. it goes "The clearer the "why" becomes, the easier the "how" gets". Which is so true.
:) okays peeps going back to my assignment.. SIGH.
deb's outta there..

Oh Joy.
It’s the start of the working week.. for me.
Yes I took a sick day yesterday.. wasn’t feeling too well, and even saw a doctor yesterday. The Doc basically told me that there’s no magic medicine he can give me, I just needed plenty of rest..
I was bored out of my brains yesterday. So I did some housework, studied financial planning Mod 6, and did abit of resting / sleeping infront of the telly with Milo. The weather was crap yesterday, so that worked out well for me. But too much idle is not good for Deb.. Oh well.. at least my house is clean… my gym bags packed, and my schedule planned for this coming week (and month in fact), and I’m all set to change the world!! and my house is ready for another whole week of Deb-living.. heh. Lets see how long the Neat and the Tidy lasts, shall we? or will i become this ranting psycho lunatic about how dirty my house is on a Thursday night? heh.

Why.. Bother..???
It is 9.45pm on a typical Thursday night for me.
I have just come home from what can only be described as a gruelling gym session and touch footy game.. okay we won and it was a good game, but im really tired now.
As I fling open the door the list of things that I had been furtively composing in my head just disappears into the chaos as I stare at the mess that is my house.
List of things to do:
1) Finish my assignment by doing an all nighter.
2) Assemble my newly bought bike.
3) Come up with a schedule to get my fitness act together (for Joy's wedding)
4) Wash the dishes.
5) Shower.
On Sunday, my house was clean. And, I mean, CLEAN. I CLEANED my whole house.. i clean it every weekend.. because it always gets messy by thursday or friday....
Can someone please tell me how the hell, in just a mere 4 days, did my nice clean house turn into a battle scene from Armageddon?!!! MY GOD... Realising this has sprung me into full-on panic mode..
I mean.. I live alone, AND i dont have any kids. All i have is Milo - and the only mess he ever makes is his kitty litter tray, and the occasional pee on the couch.
How did I, turn my nice house in a mere 4 days.. into.. into... a big fat mess? If so, WHY BOTHER doing the housework then?? WHY BOTHER?? WHY?
WHY?!!
ARRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
How will I, then cope when I get married, and start having kids?? I listen to my friends tell of their house messes.. (most of them have kids by the way), and I am just horrified at MINE.. because frankly, I got news for you..
Home ownership.. not easy! True it may be fun, but its definately not easy to juggle the housework. Am I alone? Is it just me??
I would so love to hear from you if you are experiencing the same thing..
Anyway....
New List of Things to do for Deb:
1) Stop Panicking.
2) Take a nice, long hot shower.
3) Forget about the housework for now, just concentrate on finishing the assignment.4) Come up with a day schedule to plan for fitness AND housework AND study.
5) Feed Milo and myself (havent had dinner yet)
6) Stop procrastinating through blogging.. and go do #1.
I will do my housework tomorrow night after I return from my singing class.. and assemble the bike then too..
deb's outta there..

It was soo worth it!!!
Worth the stress of the past few weeks.. worth the countless emails sent back and forth, worth the planning, actioning and good preparation all round...
Joy's Hens Night went off with a Bang and stayed there!!!!!! IT WAS EXPLOSIVE!!!
Well my friend Joy is getting married in afew weeks, and Nadia, Tiff and I, being bridesmaids, had to plan this awesome night for her. We planned it to have drinks/cocktails/fingerfood at her place first, then eventually head into town for a night of dancing, clubbing, drinking etc etc etc! Then in the morning we planned a scumptious brekkie of Pancakes (maybe with Bacon & Eggs).
So, yesterday morning i woke up at 7.30am to do my housework, cos i knew i wouldnt have time to do it this weekend and it was really shocking to see how my house can so easily get soo dirty and messy.. so it was something i had to do.
We got there at around 1pm to set the decorations up and do some last minute preparations. The night kicked off at 7pm. Photos will be up shortly.. haha.
Needless to say, we headed into town at around 11pm to the Vodka Bar first!! Armed with our trusty sashes labelled "BRIDE TO BE" and "BRIDESMAIDS" hung around us, and forsaking our coats to the chilly night, we started our journey there.. and proceeded to the Isobar, where we got free entry and free drinks, thanks to Joy knowing the owner. I love dancing!! hahaha. THen, it was off to SWISH!! where it was choccabloc full, and half of them were sleazy stupid guys.. but we shall not go there... haha Our final stop was at the Casino, where we then got picked up by Joy's Parents!!
We finally got to bed at around 3 am.. fully tired out/ liquored out (well Joy was anyway).. haha
This morning we all woke, tidied the remenants of last night's mess.. and proceeded to have pancakes with lemon, cream & sugar, and also with maple syrup (for some).
Joy's getting married !! YAY!!!!
This is what life is about too!! As Joy later remarked, it was awesome having seen so many of her friends in the same room, some that she hadn't caught up for ages with...
Its not time i would exchange for anything in the world.
This is life!!
Pictures will be out asap!!!
deb's outta there..
