ARRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHH... *faint*

Stepped on the weighing scale today...put on 4 freaking kilos in two weeks...man...and I was under the impression that when you are breastfeeding you somehow will not gain weight....MYTH MYTH MYTH I tell you...I am so swearing off weighing scales...yes....you heard me right...the dreaded scales....I bet my weight which equates to one of a baby elephant (yes baby..I don't care what anyone says) has to do with:

1. Australia being away from equator and therefore has more gravity and makes you heavier (somehow I think that it should be less gravity...so lighter....but I don't care..it's my Blog)
2. Water retention
3. "Heavy bones" syndrome

Or I could snap out of my denial and just admit that I have been really busy stuffing my face with leftover

1. Chips (so that they don't go soft)....
2. Soft Drinks (so that they don't go flat..you know..no gas)...
3. Chocolate (summer's coming...will melt)...
4. Food (too long will have "wind")..

*sigh*

Shopping for Kids

X'mas is fast approaching and I have been on the lookout for pressie's for kids since my laws are coming and will be spending X'mas here...problem is though..I am so out of touch with what kids like nowadays....the kids ranges from ages 3(girl), 4(boy), 7(boy), 8(girl)....any suggestions are greatly welcomed...there is the problem of transportation since they will have to bring the presents back home..so big and bulky are no nos...you would think that books and "practical" stuff like clothes are ideal...but when you are 3 , I don't think that u care much about reading or fashion but as I mentioned, I am so out of touch that maybe kids really do like books and "practical" stuff nowadays...

Update: I have found the most gorgeous website...I think I will get them stuff from there... http://www.peanutgallery.com.au/ and http://www.sendatoy.com.au/

Boo Hoo...Sad sad day

I cannot believe that one of my all time favorite author has passed away....Michael Crichton...his book brought not only me...my dad and my sister hours of enjoyment...brilliant brilliant writer....I have always waited in anticipation for his new releases...I cannot believe it is all over...what a sad horrible day for avid readers...such a shock as well...*sniffle*...*wail*...I am sure many have read his books if not watch movies based on his book like Congo and Jurassic Park and what about the TV series he produced...ER...he will be greatly missed I am sure by many...
