In the heat of summer, we celebrated Chinese New Year. The Big Do at the Chinese restaurant of my choice turned out to be a success - not phenomenal because we had Singapore chill crabs served under our noses and then hastily taken away when they realised - after the 15th prodding - that it wasn't part of our order.
But boy are we coming back for the chilli crabs! Some day...
Apart from that and mahjong with a couple of friends on new year's eve, it hasn't been crazy fun. There were fireworks in Queanbeyan apparently, which is sweet for an ang-moh community to do.
HOWEVER, we did spend the first day of Chinese New Year buying things for the house. We are now proud virtual owners (the items haven't arrived yet) of a full-wool tan living room rug/carpet from Myer (got it at 20% discount) and a wonderful vacuum cleaner that scrubs, shampoos and vacuums ALL AT ONCE. Got the latter on 50% discount.
HUGELY boring news to everyone else, small little yee-has for me. Tony's just happy when the wife's happy.
I have to say that a spot of creativity came on Thursday when Tony brought home the company's $4,500 projector. We made plenty good with our big white living room wall that night.
Are we settling down and becoming one of those super-boring couples that work, cook, sleep and shop at the farmer's market on Saturday morning (which, by the way, we did - everything cost a fraction of the price at Coles/Woolies)? I think so. A part of me feels rather guilty and sheepish about it all. A part of me recognises that it's just one of those things for a while. And a part of me is rather relieved that life is turning out quite undramatic and easy.
