That was the week that was.. gap year week 1

Well, I've come to the end of my first full week of my grey gap year so what did I get up to you ask?

Here's all the exciting details...



Got a job,  


 and  then sacked my self!




Yes, really! I applied for a job at a local nursing home and they asked me to do a "buddy shift" where you work with another nurse  (a sort of try before you buy kind of thing), well even though I did the shift and it was not too bad, when the day came to go  back for another, I chickened out at rang them and sacked my self,  It was a kind of  "it's not you, it's me thing"  if you get my drift.  I firmly know now that my nursing interests lie in the more acute care area. So, not a lost cause, just a good learning experience.



and that was only the second day of the gap year!

So here are some highlights of my week....



2 of  my tweets got retweeted and favourited!!     YES!!
1 by by hotels.com and the other by ABC 702 Sydney!   so nearly big time social media player!

If you want to follow me ( and let's face it, there is always room for one more twitter stalker!)  my

Had dinner at one of Sydney's best restaurants, Aria on Saturday night before attending The White Album Concert at the Sydney Opera House.  Had a amazing dinner (we went for the pre-theatre menu and it's amazing value with fantastic food and service) and the show at the Opera House was as equally good;  and I don't imagine there are many Operas where the audience stands up and dances in the seats and aisles, which is what we did at the show!  And now I think I have a bit of a crush  on Tim Rogers too!





In between all this excitement, I've been cooking, drinking some lovely French wine,
and scouring op shops for pre-loved things I can resurrect, like this little bedroom slipper chair I got today for the bargain price of $15!  She's going to scrub all nice and pretty when I get some new fabric on her.




and I've been catching up on essential reading....




So all in all I can say it was a pretty good week, how about you,  did you do something exciting, interesting or like me,  sack yourself from your job this week?
