As previously mentioned I was rather sick in my initial stages of pregnancy (pass the bucket please) so I spent most of my time sleeping. This meant that I could no longer commit to many extra curricular ALIA activities so I had to resign from many committees. I said goodbye to:
ALIA Vic LT - I have learnt so much from this group as it was my first foray into ALIA. Just a great bunch of people who I will miss. I was pleased to be able to stop Technotes, the groups newsletter as I think I had run out of steam.
ALIA Vic - this group was so different to the LT group for lots of reasons. I will miss the experience of group members the most and admire many of them for what they have achieved.
ALIA NGAC - I felt bad about pulling out of NGAC as I had just been reappointed for another term (sorry guys). I did however learn so much more about ALIA the Association and how the Board works etc. Good to see "the other side's" view. I won't miss those reports though!
The only thing I kept was NLS4 as we had been working towards this for over 2 years. I will blog more about them later.

Monday mornings
Don't you just hate Monday mornings becasue you wake up and remember all the things you didn't do on the weekend, then you come into work and see all the things you didn't finish off the week before!!
Well most Monday mornings are like this for me. Firstly I wake up and just know that I have another five hours sleep in me! Then I finally drag myself out of bed and think of everything I didn't do. Now don't get me wrong - I put a little efoort in this weekend. I managed to see the new Harry Potter film which was brilliant - but so many things left out compared to the book. Then on Saturday I got up early (like 9:30am) and went to the gym and did a few errands, then came home and had a rest before my friends 30th. So I went to the party and had an awesome time and got totally drunk and taxied in home well after 3:00am. Fell asleep and wished I could stay there forever. However as we drove to the party I had to get up early and go back into town to get the car so Dan could use it for work. Came home and cleaned up (including the dishes - a big clap for me) then my other friend came around and we went out for some much needed KFC. I love deep fried food after a big session!! She dropped me home about 2:00pm and I jumped on the couch and that's where I stayed. Dropped in and out of consciousness for the next few hours until Dan got home. He was knackered too so we decided we needed more junk food and ordered Pizza. About 8:00pm whilst watching a Big Brother Eviction I thought I better do some of those other things I had wanted to do. I managed to type up the minutes for an NGPAG meeting but then felt so tired I just had to go to bed. And that is where I satyed until the alarm went off this morning!!

This weekend...
(See above for the cake we had to celebrate TOT's 10th anniversary year!!)
It's just about that time again where you plan to go home and relax - but not me. Pretty busy this weekend. Tonight I am off to the movies to see the new Harry Potter movie with Dan, Marcus and Tan. I want to sit next to Marcus becuase he is the only one who has read all the books like me!! It's nice to have "booky" friends who aren't librarians!! He runs Midland Typesetters so prepares all the manuscripts before they become books. He gets to go to lots of fancy publishing parties too!!
Anyway, tomorrow night one of my best mates is having her 30th so I plan to get thoroughly sloshed and stay up to the wee hours of Sunday morning!! Then a girlfriend is coming for lunch on Sunday.
Also, I have to write up the minutes for NGPAG (a New Generation and Policy Advisory group I am on in ALIA). Plus write up Technotes which is the newsletter of the Victorian LT Group I am on. Plus the usual things of clean the house, visit the gym, read more books etc. Then I get to come back to work on Monday and work a little harder as over the next 3 weeks all of the people I work with are taking annual leave at some point!!
I was also thinking about starting some studying but am guessing I won't even look at it! Oh, well - you have to have fun now and again!!
