Huphup is online, so hooray!


This is my room. It's the smallest out of all the rooms, only has a single bed and doesn't have a balcony. However, it is next to the bathroom and it is umm...cosy...







Monday: The drive. Picked up Sam and went to Debbie's, then met up with Manyee and Irene (one of the BOHs) at one of the huge BP/KFC/Subway/Maccas stops along the Hume Highway. Tower burger for lunch (mmmm....) and then continued the long drive up to Shepp. There's a long stretch of burnt land along the Hume for about 20 minutes where the bushfires were; it really gives the bushfires a lot more significance (and we're told we'll deal with people who might have even been impacted directly); it's not just a newspaper headline anymore.

Lots of boring paperwork, told the laptops wouldn't be set up until the next day. Zzz. Did the grocery shopping (food, more food, some booze, more food...) then dinner time!



Michael's balls (they're big and salty and brown)




Pasta and meatballs - Master Chef M Nguyen, Sous Chef Tron


Ok I lied on the last bit, the girls made the garlic bread. Did some ironing after dinner while watching TV, then watched 2 eps of The Office before bed.

Tuesday: Woke up at 7.15am to this.



Not the most inspirational sight ever, but we'll make do. Did some exercise, had a shower before all the girls got to it (then there'd be trouble). Breakfast (for the first time in a long time) and morning coffee!!!

Lots of boring admin and 'this is where the gowns are kept' crap during the day, at least we got to finish at 3pm to go shopping. The SPC factory is the bomb-dig(gitty). $10 for 6 bottles of Ocean Spray cranberry juice - how could you say no! Did more shopping, refilled the car, then went back to cook.


Tron's Butter Chicken. Hooray for premade sauce!




'Family' dinner. Quite a dysfunctional family if I do say so myself.


Anyway, watched TV after dinner, ran a load of washing (Mum and sisters would be proud), drank some hot chocolate, fired a Happy Birthday video off to Tiff (HAPPY BIRTHDAY TIFF!) and did the budget/accounts.

Gotta sleep, early wakeup tomorrow; watching the Champions League with Michael at 6.30 and first patients in Shepp...more to come tomorrow!
