Hazy day of summer.....

Ok so I have a confession to make. I have an addiction that only few truly know about. It started when I was a small child.... and NO it's not HOT MEN! That came a little later hehehe.

It's this:


And can sometimes be found in your freezer like this...



Yep you got it, it's an Ice Block! And we can blame my Nana for this one! Well that's my story and I'm sticking to it!! I can eat them any time of the year, any time of the day! And excuse me but on Holidays Welllllllll there ain't nothing better than to have one on a hot sunny day by the pool! :)

Ok, so now that I have that confession out of the way, let's begin today's festivities!

Is there ever a time when you can be just tooooo relaxed? I have wondered that this afternoon, as I feel so mighty fine!

I had the best sleep in this morning, followed by some breakfast (thought about the ice block, but was strong.... and said No! - Thank God I listened...) and off we went to spend the day by our pool!


I'm sorry but I can never take enough shots of this pool!

There was not one cloud in the sky today and it was so relaxing to just lay in the sun, read my book and when I got hot, slip into that pool! And OMG hello, that pool felt A - MAZING!

Then when we got a little bit peckish it was time to do this:


Gotta love Poolside Service! Hell yeah :)

And what was on the Morley Menu today? Well I got me a very delicious Toasted Ham, Cheese and Tomato sandwich with hot salt chips on the side! Mmmmm delish!


After lunch we did some more of this:


And of course I had to do this one. It was calling my nameeeeeeee Karennnnnnnnnnn come and playyyyyyyyy


I have to tell you these little podgy "Holiday Feet" of mine are having the best time! Can you see them smiling back at you?


Andddddd I finished reading my book this afternoon too!

Here's a pic to remind you.


Now I have to tell you Groover's that this was the most inspirational read. I have always liked Denise Richards and I was not disappointed in her first book. The way she has dealt with things that have come her way in life, of course Charlie Sheen, but even dealing with her Mum's death of cancer, well it touched me to read about her struggles and how she has come through stronger and in a much happier place in her life.

I thoroughly recommend it to anyone out there in this big world that feels like they are unable to deal with things that are thrown at them at times! I loved it!!!!!

Well tonight the sky is quite hazy, no Mt Warning to be seen tonight. And it doesn't look like rain, more hazy.... as in The Bangles song... Ohhh speaking of song. I have two things I want to share with you Groover's tonight. The first one comes from my trip home yesterday in the car from the Beauticians. Do you remember the song Listening by Pseudo Echo.... OMG I hadn't heard this song in years.

And just for you Groover's here is the link:

Pseudo Echo - Listening

Andddddddd the second thing was this lovely clip that my friend Barb shared with me today and I in turn would now like to share it with you kids courtesy of the Mumma Mia website!

Military Reunions with Man's Best Friend: Dogs Welcoming home their owners

What a beautiful clip! Brought a tear to my eye.

And so that brings us to the end of another perfect holiday day here in Kingscliff. I would like to leave you kids with this little shot I took last night of the sunset.


Night!

Spa Movember - Morley Style

Well tonight I went to dinner with my mate Bern. We had a great time catching up as both of our lives have been quite busy and every time we seemed to try and catch up it just didn't happen. Sometimes she was sick, sometimes it was me, sometimes we were just plain busy.

Funny isn't it when friendships get so busy that there just isn't enough time to catch up! Thank god for Facebook :)

I also decided tonight to take time out tonight and I had a spa! And can you believe this was only my third time! Crazy goose that I am.... :( But it was nice to chill out, watch the moon, stars and clouds drift across and chat with Baby Jake, or as I like to call him at the moment "The Unemployed Mo" as in mustache!


You see first of all it started with the Holiday Shag. And I don't mean shag in a good way, I mean a sprinkling of hair across his face. Then more grew, then some changed colour, thennnnnnnnnnn he shaved some off and kept "The Mo". Except the Mo really isn't all one colour.

Now you may say the Mo is for Movember, and for this month of November maybe Baby Jake could get away with it... And maybe NOT! And tonight he even said it was getting so long that it's curling over his lip! Ewwwwwwwwwww so wrong on so many levels LOL
It's tough you know being out of work and living in a Spa! It's like having my own live-in pool boy, but NOT! hahaha.

I'm thinking I need to employ myself one like this:


But I'm worried I can only afford THIS!


Sometimes he even has that themed music playing in the background. You know the 70's Porn music..... hehehe. Jake that is!

Well so that is the latest. Yep I agree not much. I ate dinner, I had a nice dessert and I then shared a warm bath with a hairy Baby Jake!

Surely my weekend can only improve from there....

Having said that I do have a few big things planned for the weekend, which meanssssss I promise I will have more to write about!

Oh and my new little lamb "Ba Ba Em" is fitting in quite nicely. There was only one small problem: Jake bought her a brand new bone. It's kinda the length of HER! And during the night, sometime around mmmm 2am she went downstairs and decided to go outside, go to the bathroom and check on the Bone, as you do at 2am. We like to call that here at "The Morley Manor" - Bone Patrol.


But she came undone Groover's. You see she decided to bring her bone inside and I am guessing she wanted to bring it upstairs to keep in my bedroom. Buttttttt as hard as she tried she couldn't get it through the doggy door downstairs.


Jake woke up at the banging of the bone (and nooooooo not THAT BONE!) and turned the light on and there she was. Ba Ba Em, bone in her mouth on an angle trying for the life of her to bring both herself and the bone through.


She didn't succeed.

Poor Ba Ba Em :(

Instead she was sent to what her and I like to call "The Dirty Prison" which of course is Jake's bedroom and we were not reunited until 7.30am this morning. I know it's def a sad tale!

So until tomorrow night, be good and have a nice sleep in tomorrow - if you can!

love

P.S.
I tried to get a pic of "The Mo" but "The Mo" is shy.... so leave it with me Groover's and I'll see what I can do! And I just had a great idea! I might grown my OWN! I knowwwwww SEXY hey! Pics to come....
