Weekend

Another week has rolled on by.

Saturday I lost $70 on the punt. Derby Day is the best days racing in the southern hemisphere for the year. And also the hardest to pick a winner. Ended up with 3 placings over 8 bets.

I worked Saturday night which went well. Only did a 3 hour shift. Got out of there before the mega orders came in. Theres a chick who is working at Pizza Boys that has a BO problem. Quite bad.

I slept half the night on the Futon in the hopes that it would be beneficial for my back. Wrong !! It is getting worse each day I reckon. I am booking in to see Dr. Al Mayahe on Monday in the hopes that he will send me to a specialist to get this problem either fixed or medicated properly. Nurofen and pain killers (Digesic or Panadeine) are not working. I have never been in sustained pain like this for a long time (since I did my shoulder back in 1996).

Sunday was very lazy. Spent most of the day relaxing up until work. Called my parents and talked to Pop as well. He wants to move into a Nursing Home. Dad is getting better after his accident (got knocked off the bike going into work), thinks he may have a broken rib but his hip is getting better day by day.

I worked for 4.5 hours last night which included 18 deliveries and a whopping $1 tip for the night. Customers down here are tight arses and they're getting worse. I collected my nightly and weekly amounts, got some McDonalds for Ang and myself and brought the boys home a small pizza to share. Rob was very appreciative - not so Jaiden.

I started watching the rest of 13 Days at 11pm but fell asleep on the couch about 20 minutes into it. I woke up at 5:30am to find the TV switched off and my back a bit sore. Not as bad as it has been over the last week but still stiff. Since waking I've showered and am ready for the day ahead.

Everyone at home is well. Baby is still fretting somewhat but meh, what can you do?
