American In Sydney

Happy 2008!

I can't believe that it's already 2008. I looked at my last post which was in October and it really surprised me at how quickly time has been marching on. Since October, we've gone to NY for Thanksgiving, Come back for 2 crazy weeks, and in celebrated Christmas with Jackson's family in Tangalooma and the Gold Coast. It's hard to believe that that was all in 2 months.

But now, I'm suffering from some sort of jet lag that gets me up at 5:30 in the morning. The funny thing is that Queensland is 1 hour behind Sydney...so technically it was 4:30 am. I think it must have been the kebab I had yesterday for dinner. But it's just me in the apartment. Jackson doesn't get back for another couple of days, so I've had a number of dates with the laundry machine.

But what have I done since 5:30? Well...I checked facebook (as usual) and then psyched myself to fulfil my new years resolution which was to go to the gym more than last year. Well...I think I'm doing pretty well so far (and it's only been one). Don't get me wrong, I enjoy exercising with my ballet and yoga and stuff, but the idea of running on a treadmill/elliptical, just doesn't get me going. But I decided that after being called "unfit" by my mother-in-law that I should at least try to make an effort...thus the new year's resolution - go to the gym more than last year. :p
