sunday afternoon tele

so lying around on a Sunday afternoon at home, i see this crazy ad for a crazy thing you’re supposed to wear while other human’s exist on earth ..

bumpit

ok, some of the examples, the girls look semi-normal but most of the photo examples – woah. maybe i’m just realllly not into big hair.

shamwow

this one – i’m a bit more suckered into – the Shamwow.. probably because i know what it takes to clean up a mess and my gosh, absorbency would make my day alot faster.. i’m such a mum. and a neat freak. (not really).

abcirclepro

last but not least, the Ab Circle Pro.. again, i’m not sure that i want to pay someone to make me look silly… surely there has to be a better way to tighten my post-pregnancy abs? lol.

HTC Hero

I ended up buying the HTC Hero to replace my older mobile phone – and it’s been a good experience with it so far!

I’ll make a proper post once I’ve spent a couple of weeks playing with all the features and using it properly, but so far I love the Twitter widget (Peep), love that it shows the weather straight up (I’m a bit of a weather geek..), love the 5MP camera (as opposed to my old 1MP), love the WiFi, love the browser, love the calender, love the easy access to things…. and it’s not bad looking too, really slick graphics.

As I mentioned before, I didn’t really want to spend that much, but given the fact we don’t upgrade our phones often and we’ve been saving our butts off this year – I wanted to do it right. I think we got it right!

Let me know your thoughts about it, and if you’ve got one aswell!

p.s. yes I did buy this as a grey import – it’s not widely available in Australia yet (unlocked), but I’ve heard that they will be available outright in December

how was your weekend?

i woke up with a terrible stomach bug on saturday morning, knocked the ‘tracey’ right out of me, i reckon! sadly, i had to miss my sister’s birthday yum cha out in parramatta – and because Jovie was under the weather also (our first experience with midnight vomiting, poor Jojo… ), Regan stayed back to look after her while i battled out the rest of the day… Jasper had a good time at yum cha though! he was up playing with my sister, her boyfriend and my brother for HOURS and didn’t go down for a nap until after 5pm.. long day for him considering he was up at 6am..

yesterday, if you were in Sydney, how did you escape the heat? it got up to 43 degrees (celcius, about 106 farenheit) where we were yesterday – hiding out in my parents always-cold house. i did brave the outside a few times to run some errands .. it was like opening the oven door and sticking your whole body in it. there was a breeze coming through, and at first i thought ‘hooray!’ but then it felt like it got 10 degrees warmer in a second. nothing like a stinking hot gush of wind… yuck.

gladly, though, i’m feeling much better. not 100% but still functionable! hopefully i’ll shake it off soon… Jovie is much better also, which is awesome 🙂
