I have been 9 days without the internet, finally was able to get my modem to work. The only good thing about it was I was able to finish painting the second bedroom and caught up with my reading.

Now I will catch up with some blogs.

I may not have got the mowing done today

but at least I have made a start on painting the second bedroom

-classic cream-

I'll also be getting rid of the carpet at last.

I should have gone to bed an hour ago but now watching the Women's Water Diving Final, the Aussie girls are going quite well but a Malaysian girl has had a great final dive and just won the Gold medal

.. sorry .. too tired to take note of her name.

Sally Pearson, an Aussie, won the Hurdles Final

not sure how far she had to race but she had to hurdle 13 hurdles

... so do the math ...

or was it 13 steps between each hurdle.

Oh well, Sally cleared without coming a cropper

... so all's good.

Now the Men's 3000m SteepleChase Final is on, not sure if I will see the end of this as I am falling asleep ... Aussie didn't win ( Awwww) but those wonderful Athletes from Kenya came 1st 2nd and 3rd. Well done, Kenya.

Oh! Great! the Pole Vault is on also the Aussie guy, Steve Hooker, is World Champ from the Olympics, World Cup etc etc etc.

Its now 1am.

Too tired off to bed and will record this session and watch tomorrow.

Stay tuned ...
