I would like to say thank you to the lovely people sending me the poems that are going around. However when they say send them to 16 people if they knew how slow my little pc here goes, they would understand. Got it to one person. Ha ha I am trying to sort out with big pond why it is dropping out all the time. Keeps going server not found. Have to turn off modem then reset then wait til comes back on. Ready to throw it against the wall.

Well today is my birthday. Have had a quiet one. Mum and dad popped in for a coffee. My brother even rang me on his smoko break. We probably only find the time to ring on those occasions and get together chrissy and we live in the same city! Shameful really. He did say he was going to try to make some time in the next couple of weeks to catch up. YAY.

I took the kids to Rockingham on the weekend anyway to visit the parents. Mark went into the water and dug himself into a big hole at the beach. He was still doing the little kid stuff. The older boys were playing basketball on the little court. Mum Mark and I came up to verse them in a game, which of course we lost but we had fun. Then we went back to her place and dad had to give Mark some of his clothes and we played trivial pursuit til midnight. We left early in the morning. Kieron had work to do on his car so we ran around and got him the parts then took the 2 younger boys to the internet cafe to play games and I went on the internet. Only $2 an hour and the computers run heaps fast and the boys get a computer each instead of fighting over turns here. I called James and he came down with his kids for a while then we got Kiza and all headed to Hungry Jacks before it was time to take all the kids to there homes. Ha ha. Good weekend all up.
