visiting hellie & co - 10:24 AM
(filed under 'general')
my friend, helen, is going to be in town this long weekend. when i say 'in town' i actually mean that she'll be within a couple of hours drive of me rather than in sydney where she lives.
she's visiting with her family on their 2000 acres partway between here & rockhampton so i'm going to go & stay with her there for a couple of days. yay!
i can't wait to see her. she's one of my closest friends & i miss her quite a bit since we live so far away from each other.
it was a bit up in the air though for a couple of hours there as to whether i'd be able to go or not. with smiley being sick (still snotty & phlegmy, but much more 'himself' than he was) & now i've also developed symptoms, i wondered if it was a good idea to expose helen & her family to it. so i emailed her to check.
she thought it wouldn't be a problem (since she's as keen as i am to catch up with each other again) but she called her mum to check.
i just heard back & she said that a few others are also suffering from one thing or another so it's fine for me to come along & add smiley's & my germs to the list.
yay for everyone being sick! 
so anyway, i leave tomorrow morning to pick up hellie from rockhampton around 9:30ish or so. we'll spend a couple of hours having a break in rocky & taking smiley to the zoo there & then we'll head back out to the farm. i was going to meet her there, but it works out so much better for me to pick her up. it not only saves her mum one of several trips into rocky & back, but it means i don't have to worry about finding the farm on my own.
also means we'll have company for some of the trip. it'll be nice to have that extra time to catch up & chat while we're driving.
i can't wait! yay!
