Getting them while they’re young

My young niece and cousins know all too well my obsession with sloths. Today was a month since my birthday so I packed up my cards that had been sitting out since then, and realised I forgot to post about this card that my 7 year old cousin made for me:

Not sure, but I think that’s a dolphin on top of the winner’s podium. And I may have seen recently on Facebook that she now has a toy sloth of her very own! Talk about having a positive influence!

Go, Sports!

I’ve started playing “competitive” netball for the first time in about 10 years the last two weeks. Having short quarters and having a better level of fitness these days helps, but I still struggle. Also I took a flying leap tonight (necessary when you’re as short as me) and landed on my right side. Put it this way, I’ll never put shit on someone with a pulled groin again. Ouch.

I found this cute motivating sloth from Charly Clements Illustration and he helped get me through! (PS: check out the link for some cute sloth birthday and Xmas cards!)

Footy Rivalry

Yesterday went to the Adelaide v Port Adelaide AFL showdown, at the new Adelaide Oval. About 50,000 people there, the atmosphere was incredible! And my team won, so that was even better. Unfortunately the boy was going for the opposition, so it was a bit like this at home:
