OK, update time!
1> Back pain is much better due to a combination of cortisone epidurals, daily 5km walks, daily low impact exercise routine and cutting wheat out of my diet (I'm not coeliacs but I do have a wheat intolerance that distends my belly and might have contibuted to the back problems).
2> We've started buying our puppy stuff: basket, crate, insurance etc. and are eagerly awaiting his arrival! YAY! We visited the litter last weekend and they're all doing well; Pepe is still the smallest but he's a cool little pup. Here's a pic:
3> All this exercise is getting me in rather good shape. Bye bye beer belly, here comes abs and pecs... I promise there'll be some more nudie shots closer to Xmas for all you peen pervs out there. I might have even convinced Sarraz into shooting an SB set for me; I promise it won't be a bedroom/bed set... We'll do something outdoors and summery.... maybe.
4> Summer has arrived in quite a fashion. It's not normally this hot or sunny until well into Jan but I guess this La Nina weather cycle has everything arse-about-face. I'm not complaining, we took a trip up to our favourite beach Tawharanui last Sunday and had an amazing swim. We were surprised how 'warm' the water was already (NZ ocean swimming is not for those used to South Cali or the Mediterranean water temperatures).
5> Eating lots of fresh fruit and veggies; foodbox.co.nz is still winning on a weekly basis.
6> Lots of work almost finished and about to be invoice pre Xmas break. The PNC album will be all mixed and mastered by the end of next week and the Shapeshifter Live record is pretty much done too. YAY!
Basically, life is YAY atm!.
