Well, here it is - all my shenanigans for the week, and what an awesomely interesting, fun and event filled week it was! I was actually supposed to do this post yesterday, keeping in line with my whole ***"no more posting on weekends"*** haha, but it was a jam packed day and I simply did not have the time! Nonetheless, here it is...

Some weeks just have that entirely ***feel good vibe*** about them, and this was definitely one of those weeks! Being the last week of school for the term as we headed towards ten days of doing whatever the heck we please - why would we not all be in a good mood by default haha! However, if I was to pick a highlight for the week, it would definitely have to be our evening last night. Dave and I seldom go out on our own but last night we were organizzzzed lol! We had granny come for a sleepover with Jude and posh pup, so everyone was happy!

Dave and I hopped into an uber and went off for an early dinner before heading to the Baxter Theatre to watch his mate... [Dalin Oliver](http://dalinoliver.com/) in action with his ***"adulting"*** comedy show. 

I was craving a steak so we decided to try a spot that we have not been to before. Sadly, despite them being a DEDICATED steakhouse, their amazing music, the wonderfully rustic setting and the super service - the food was less than impressive which was a grave disappointment because their prices were not *average*.

I am always nagging Dave to stop ordering his steaks ***medium rare*** and to order them ***rare*** instead - which he never does, but last night he decided to and instead, he got a well done steak haha - DOH!

I ordered their blue cheese steak. I like a sauce with my steak and what I often do to substitute a sauce and chips, I will have it with creamed spinach which is precisely what I did... but unfortunately all I received to accompany my also not great steak was a pile of watery SLOP! I was less than impressed!

Anyhoooooo... we made the best out of the time there and admittedly they did give us two complimentary shooters in an attempt to make up for the food oopsies - although in my opinion, this falls dramatically short of an adequate compensation when you have spent almost a grand on your brief visit to their establishment. Nonetheless, it was time to head off to the theatre and enjoy the show, which was absolutely brilliant!

Nothing beats an entire evening of laughing until you cry! - It is such good food for the soul! The entire evening was just brilliant, except for the part when I had to disturb about ten people because I was so utterly desperate to get to pee!!!!! hahahaha - but no matter, we ended up being given much better box seats after that so as to not disturb the other guests again lol. It was just so great to get out and have a completely carefree evening! It was an acute reminder of life before motherhood haha and whilst I wouldn't change my life for the world... it certainly did feel good!

As for the rest of my week it was pretty busy with everything wrapping up at school, parent teacher meetings as well as planning my little mans upcoming birthday party! Had a SUPER tasty and casual roast chicken dinner with mom on Thursday, popped out for a DELICIOUS steak lunch at [Pastis Brassiere](https://pastisbrasserie.co.za/) as well ***(much better than last nights steak lol and half the price)*** 

As many of you know, I am no baker - my passion is cooking, but for the last two years I have baked Jude's birthday cake and I quite like the challenge... but once a year is enough for me haha!

![20190919_123311.jpg](https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/jaynie/iOI7gVJq-20190919_123311.jpg)

This year we are spoiling him because he is becoming a double digit! Yip, I cannot believe that my son is already 10 years old!!!!! Crazy how fast the time goes! So yes, the spoiling... Jude LOVESSSS dodgeball so we decided to hire the inflatable dodgeball crew to come and run him and his friends legless hahaha!! They bring and do everything in terms of the games, music, referees etc. So it hould prove fun for the boys! Here's hoping my cake turns out as good as the dodgeball tournament lol!!!

I did not get as much time as I would have like to curate other people's content this week but I plan to make up for that during the next ten days of holiday! Nonetheless, here are some of the awesome posts spotted and curated by my @theluvbug account. If by any chance, the posts you see below have already reached curation by the time you see this post - then please consider going to check out one of the creators newer posts and perhaps give them a follow :)

***I absolutely LOVED the uniqueness of this painting and much like I said in my comment... the combination of styles used really makes it stand out! It is definitely not something you see everyday and because the artist also stepped into slightly uncharted territory, I hold even more respect for it!***

***I hold this beautiful woman very close to my heart - she is one of the most selfless individuals I have ever met! Recently, she and her family went through a life changing trauma and despite everything she has been going through emotionally, she still finds the time to give to others - she is truly a one in a million woman and this brief post of expression is just a slice of her multi-dimensional character! Love you honey!***

***A wrap up post would be incomplete without at least one reference to the Rugby World Cup!!! And whilst Russia may not have walked away with the win against Japan, they put up a pretty damn strong fight! - I was equally as diappointed today when our beloved Bokke lost against the All Blacks - but all said and done I think we are in for a VERY interesting World Cup!***

As for my week here on the blockchain, it was also a week that I really enjoyed content creation. You know, sometimes you have weeks where things simply flow with ease and then there can be others where you feel like you are grasping at straws! I kicked off the week with a foodie post because I had the time to spend cooking up a storm in my kitchen last Sunday. The parent teacher meetings this week also got me reflecting on everything Jude and I have conquered in the last year. Having a good creative week also made me reflect on Steem itself - the people here, what we are all doing to help one another and so forth. Hope you enjoy the posts if you do decide to make a turn by any one of them :)

Well, the week is not quite over yet and as I sit here now writing this - I am waiting for my little man and my mom to return from a birthday trip to my beautiful niece Juliet who also turned 10 today (Jude and her are one week apart.) I stayed at home to babysit posh pup as we could not take him with... they have a Rottweiler who was unlikely to take well to our energetic little pest haha!

Mom will be sleeping over tonight as there is apparently going to be no power at her place. Whilst they were out celebrating, I decided to cook up some comfort food and popped some chicken and veg into the oven to roast, so that when they get back we can enjoy the rest of the evening together with some good food! 

### Well peeps... catch you on Monday! Hope you all have a Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious weekend further!
