Bully-boy crab moved back into his 'old' shell again ...
Once a week we have to give the crabs a salt water 'bath' (they are land animals and can't swim).
All was fine until the little fella burrowed himself into a different corner than usual after his bath. Bully boy decided that he wanted to be in that same corner when we put him back into the tank, so he man-handled the little guy out of his way and got comfy in the corner.
Little fella wasn't going to take the bullying lightly though and tried to muscle his way back into his possie, but he wasn't strong or big enough to move the Bully, so settled on sleeping right on top of him!
3 cheers for the little fella!
Today was our last child-free holiday day -- so I guess it was also our last naked day for a wee while
We put clothes on and went out to see 'LoTR The Two Towers' in 'gold class' comfy seats and free popcorn/drinks.
I also spent my lingerie gift vouchers on a very pretty blueish/aqua bra, and I also put a couple of sets on lay-away (I'm such a lingerie freak!). I've also decided to put some new clothes on lay-away next payday. We can't really afford to be splashing out at the moment -- the settlement date for our home loan (and the date we have to have all the credit cards paid off) is January 20th... but after that...
Although one piece of news is that on Friday I paid the last of the money owing on my New Zealand credit card ($1800 Australian). I'm so proud of us, we've saved so hard, and stuck pretty well to strict budget.
We've more money in our savings account than I've ever had in my life. Its just a pity we are going to give it all away on the 20th. *pulls a face*

Lingerie freaks rule!
I would love to be a lingerie freak, but I'm just not girly enough. *lol* Not in figure. My figure is plenty girly, 'specially with a pregnant belly starting to poke out! I just can't get into the mental frame of mind for it. The closest I can come is matching my panties to my bras.
And hey, even though you're giving all that money away, at least you've proven that the two of you can save together! That's a valuable piece of information...
I'd heard of the "exchange vacations" where people take turns visiting one another or swap homes for a week... how about taking turns exchanging kids for a week? Glad you could have a naked holiday!
Mmmm, lingerie.
Congratulations on the credit card! Ghost and I dream of being able to pay that sucker off.
