My parents are gone… *sniff*

They just left and now the driveway is huge and empty…*sigh*  Okay sure it’ll be nice to have our space entirely to ourselves again but I miss them already *wail*…  *sniff* ..  

We had my birthday dinner last night at a local Chinese restaurant and it was fun!  16 of us around a giant round table with heaps of food!  The lazy Susan proved most entertaining for the kids in attendance and adults hastily grabbed for it when the food started spinning, chinking off all the glasses *giggle*  The restaurateur was on her best behaviour so only glowered occasionally at us all *grin* and didn’t have a hernia at the sight of the kids clambering for the GIANT T.V   We got to watch Americas Funniest Home Videos with dessert *grin* was great!  Loi totally spoilt me with gorgeous stationery AND a book voucher – died and gone to heaven stuff here : ) As soon as my re-write is finished I’m off to spend it!  And remember how I was frantically learning photoshop before my 30 days run out?  I mentioned it to Dad when we were at Nana’s yesterday clearing away branches and he thought he might have something similar.  We get home and he pulls out a full legit copy of Photoshop V6 – I was doing cartwheels!!  Now I have to go back to the library for V6 books but who cares!  I have a full copy of photoshop!! Weeee
