Settled down, man & wife; is this now the story of my life? The London life as a working mom is still a struggle, but we get by with flowers, food and the occasional travel.

A Twi-Hard Post
I watched Breaking Dawn yesterday! Oh those boys are HAWT!!!! And amidst the drool fest I suppose the wedding scene and the pregnancy story line makes this movie the most relatable to by far in the twilight series. Why are we drawn to Twilight? This is really my most embarrassing obsession... Isn't being on Team Edward truly acceptable because he isn't really 17, he is in fact really old and wise and gentlemanly...haha Yeah I guess I just got sucked in.
And revering in Breaking Dawn flashbacks last night after the movie... I had this revelation. Girls are supposed to like bad boys right??? That's probably why they are torn between Edward and Jacob. They are both bad boys. The only difference is Jacob is good boy behaving badly, and Edward is bad boy struggling to be good. I can relate to Edward more in that sense. I want to be good and to be accepted by society and it is a struggle to be kind and understanding constantly cause I have this temper that needs to be reigned in. But Edward is also appealing because he has this admiration for Bella and puts her on a pedestal and does his best to make sure she is protected and happy. A little overbearing I know... but ah well.
S welcomed me home after the movie by saying..."Welcome back to reality!" Which is droll, considering I wouldn't have minded walking down the aisle to the fairy lights and white blossom festooned outdoor aisle wedding towards Eternal Life with Edward Cullen.
I could not help but remember how adorable Cullen looked when he was restraining himself from jumping Bella. I suppose I am not quite as cute in my pyjamas either, so there, tit for tat. This is indeed *YaWn* Reality, but well, at least S is warm and soft on a cold wet night.

Simple life simple musings
We are coming into summer days now. Every morning is sunny going into work. The flowy floral dresses showing off tanned legs and arms are everywhere in the city and there is a cheer in the air as people having had a good Melbourne cup are now planning their Christmas parties and booking NYE plans.
S and I are working hard on our house now that we are back. We spent the weekend mowing, weeding, raking and replanting the lawn. I am so excited at the prospects of the new lawn that I could sit there and watch the grass grow...literally! S has caught me once.
We also went to Moore park supacenta and scored this grand tv entertainment unit from Nick Scali in the sales. S was stoked I can tell. For it really did tick every box of ours. It was white, high gloss, the right height, good quality and just the right price. And it has enough slots for all of S's gadgets and gizmo's! Twas a good weekend that just went past.
Well I wondered last night if I could be happier if we had posted our engagement on Facebook so that 78 or so people can 'like' it? Or if he could make me feel more secure by changing our Facebook status to include our relationship. Or if he could do grand gestures so that the voyeur in me can post up details along with pictures so that our friends can gag on our romance. Perhaps tis true what Lady Fairfax says: that Jealousy is the last resort of the insecure.
But when I do reflect on the little things he does do for me, like folding my laundry and putting them away, or like marinating the chicken so that it's easier for me to make dinner when I get home from work, or just him taking the initiative to research council law to find out how to get rid of that tree that really annoys me in the backyard...I know I don't need Facebook affirmation to help me articulate his affections for me. We are happy just the way we are.
