Feeling better today. Am having another day off to get over this flu quicker cause as I say to everyone else you must look after your self first so I must take my own advice there. I got a new camera that I purchased on e-bay. It will probably take me a while to work out how to use it but the boys already played around with it and took a couple of photos of each other last night so I thought I would put them up here. They are such poses. Glad it arrived after the break in. Will have to find some good hidy holes to put those little expensive things.

Had a bit of a vulnerable day today. Spent the day on the lounge as I have the flu but also yesterday after coming home from a day out someone had broken into my house. They have come in through the laundry and even used bolt cutters on the security screen. They took the x-box plus heaps of games, i-pod and mobile phone of my sons. I should be grateful noone was hurt but very upset as we have no insurance and we work very hard for the few things we have. Every time someone rang me up I would start blubbering. I rang work for some time off as I don't think I could handle being there tomorrow, plus homeswest will send someone to fix it in 48 hours they said and they didn't come today therefore I have no security tonight. Forensics came in today but found no finger prints. SUCKS. My son is sleeping downstairs with the cricket bat. Hate living in this slum sometimes.

It's been a while since I left a blog so will make some time now on my day off. I have been to the school with my son today as he has a very poor attendence rate which has been going on for too long which is very draining. The year co-ordinator was really good and he got Nik to make an agreement with him to get himself to school. He believes that on talking to his teachers he is capable of the work but I am not convinced of that as teachers I have spoken to tell me he is disruptive and playing up in class therefore he must be having trouble. However his attitude is terrible at the moment. He is so lazy and tries to avoid doing anything. Houdini couldn't get out of as much as him!Ha ha

Anyway also know I need to set better boundaries. I let him get away with too much when I get tired he knows he can talk around me and get what he wants.

The week has been good other then that. My other son is enjoying his apprentiship and has got himself a car which he needs to do a little work on and his uncle is helping him with that and giving him some driving lessons.

The lady I work for on Thursday is in remission and is getting stronger every week  and the twins are still a joy to work with. My job is great but don't know how long will stay there as both parents are getting better so am actually looking forward to a short break soon and then a new project.
