Just wanted to say thankyou to all my minti friends for all the support and guidance that they have shown me this week... I have had a alwful week, and it has made me feel that as soon as i sign into msn there is a friend there that is going to be able to share a ear and not be judgemental and has all ways given me great advise... Thanx guys and you all know how much i care and value your friendships.. So have a great weekend and keep those articles coming in and showing me what i enjoy so much on minti as  well....

You are all the best and i loves ya all mwah cazza

today was better for me... sent the kids off to school and creche. and hit the stores and done some retail therapy..... Got some great bargains at the butchers and coles..... Came home and done heaps of washing and had a chat with mick on how i was yesterday, and he said it will woork it self out, and i need to remember that im a good person and a good friend...

Had my news on my girlfriend today, and she doesnt seem to be getting better, cant walk, talk properly, and her face is a bit messed up, so sad as she is got good features.. Hopefully it will get better for her soon...

Well i havnt done any foster care for 3 weeks,and called yesterday and was a bit worried,. but its all good, as there has being no referrals or calls for kidddies in the age bracket i chose... Up to today then i get a call at 3pm and asked if i take 2 little boys for the weekend. so now i have 5 kiddies for the weekend, but so far so good, and they are absolutely gorgeous boys, their age is 5 and 2.....

So its friday night, and all im waiting on is for them all to go asleep and then i can crack a can hehe... was going to have a few, but no can do as its not allowed when i have kiddies in my care...

Ok thats me for the day...

well today started of bad, as my girls wouldnt get out of bed and decided half hour before school started they get ready... so its amazing how quickly u tell a child they go to school in their pjs that they get ready... so drop the 2 oldest off, and chloe and i went grocery shopping no list, and shopped, and surprised my self as i came under my budget... So brought the groceries home, chucked the frozen goods in the freezer, bolted out the door as we had a school assembly to attend... So that was really good and i was pleased the principal didnt mention my friend today as its very touchy at the moment..

So after the assembly chloe and i went to playgroup and took a bday cake in as she missed her bday there, some of the mums stuck their nose in the air, but care factor zero.... so the kids enjoyed the cake..... we then came home and put the groceries away.....

Was a bit shocked that a few people have issues with one of the top mums on here, and it saddens me that some cant keep their opions to them selves... But i know that i love minti and i love how i have met so many great mums, dads, etc, and would like for me to stay that way, so dont ever feel that im taking sides as im not...

So anyway back to the school and was told that chloes playgroup day has being changed from monday to friday, and i went off, as they didnt consult me on it, only the kinda mums as they wanted to change the kinda days... so poor chloe routine they want to change, not going to happen, and i said if they want to give me a job there, as i feel i dont have a life away from school and the centre, well then i allow chloe''s routine yto change..

Also chloe and caitlyn attented a party at hungry jacks for one of their little friends, surprising enough all went well. Until we left as i texted my sil and said get mum to get us at 7, and no show, as she gave me a old bloody number, so we froze for half hour, and poor caitlyn had  accident, and was upset. but i said dont worry its called a shower when we get home and washing for her clothes..

So thats my day, and im tired and cranky haha, bring on friday night, as i need a drink..

well im back again after being away for 2 days hehe.... i had more issues with the computer that i borrowed and decided thats it. i will start afreash and buy a new one... so off we went and made a few phone calls and arranged finance and ended up with a great deal ....  so all is good and hopefully i wont have no more probs..

Thank you for everyone that left messages on my girlfreind.. and she has a long way to go before she will be better, she came out of icu yesterday and is on the same ward as her hubby, she cant remember much, and uis very confused. Family are only to visit for the time being, as she is strugling to remember those as well.... The hospital has also requested that we dontsend no more flowers or cards as yet, as she has heaps and its upsetting her as she cant even read... So fingers cross this will pass and she be the vibrant person we all love and miss, as we sure thats what she want to go back as...

The boys have settled back at home and all is good.... having a few issues with caitlyn and her friends and all will be sorted there as they are all bad as  each other lol..

Well hope  everyone is well, and fingers cross i dont have no more probs with computers... Will most likely catch up with everyone on msn... ok take care mwah cazza

well today mick and brodie came home yayyyyy, but they had fun away... well we had more computer probs today, so if i disapear for a day or so its because of that.. Mick decided today he has had enough of this computer and we are getting a new one this week hopefully..

Well the boys came home with lots of gifts for the girls.....

Had some sad news today and i felt so bad, one of my friends from school was in a head on car collision on the weekend , and i saw her boy at the shopping centre and he was on cructhes and i said to him you have being in the war matey, and he said yes just a accident i was in... I didnt click and let it go, and when i got home and read the paper.. there on the front page was my girlfriends car, then my mil called and said have u heard from linda''s family and i said no, and she said the school debriefed the kids at school today, as linda is in a bad way.... So fingers crossed she be ok......

Well its good to have my son and hubby home and it makes you appreciate your love ones when other things go wrong....

So thats my day ...

As some of you know i went out last night and had a blast... So it all started at home with my sil and we had a few UDL cans and chatted away on msn for ages... At 9 we walked down the road to rock n roll, and froze our tits off lol...

Once we got there it was awsome and i was so popular should have asked for autographs - as during the week i was in the paper and lonnie is a small place... So danced away and drank heaps... During the night i went to the door and spoke to the lady who we pay entry to and the security guy was being a huge flirt and chatting me up lol. I said u realise im married and he laughed and the lady said so is he. typical male hehe...So also had mick texting me flat out and being a bit naughty as well.... At 1.30 it all finished and jules and i headed home in the cold and dark lol...When we got home we were going to drink more but i was so tired....

So today im hypernating and have being back to bed, and thank god chloe  had a nap with me, and caitlyn played on the computer as she can be trusted like that....

So now im trying to get motivated and do the house as mick and brodie are back tomorrow yayyyyyyyyyy, but i think i go over it in the morning before i pick them up....

So hope all goes well for my week... and i catch up with some of u on msn..

ok now i have being out And so drunk and hav being on msn and all my frinds are asleep... so had a good night, and had the security guy chat me up lol. and mick sendin me messages hehe..

so what to do lol... think i go to bed..

i thought i better do a blog before i go out tonight as i might not be sober enough later to make sense lol...

Ok today was good as we headed to the soccer ground and helped assist michael and brodies team... The other team was from our club and what a bunch of competive little shits and the parents have a lot to answer too...
We were 3 all at half time and the other team protest as they thought we wernt playing fair, but it was all good... At the last quarter we came out 5- to their 3,  and one of brodies friends got upset as one of the kids from our team joked with him, and he wanted to punch  them out , but his mum said she would be sorting this out on tuesday when mick gets back.... So should be a interesting training. as we have always taught our kids on our team to play fair.. so if these other parents have a issue with our team i''m sure mick will put those parents in their place...

So any way im heading out tonight for a girly night, and hope all goes well. so ignore any blogs after this as i will be toxicated hehe...

Im finally back and it feels good as well.... This is what happened.... Monday night my computer didnt shut down properly so when i got up tuesday morning my computer had wiped it self clean out... So my neighbour/friend came over and restored it to me...Tuesday night it worked fine and i was chatting to a few friends online annd after all that, i went to do a virus scan and it froze, so i thought i do it in the morning..So i got up early and turned it on, and it said i was hit with a corrupted file/or missing file, so my neighbour/friend tried to restore it nagain, and nothing, the Hard drive had spat it, and no matter what he tried to do it wouldnt work...So 3 days later and he decided he would lend me his old tower/hard drive as well. and he is going to try and fix mine over the weekend.... So what a long 3 days it was.... But one bonus came out of it, i got the bedrooms the way i like them...

Have had a huge week, ages ago i mentioned and asked here about my childrens school, as we were offered to upgrade it or build a new one.. Well wednesday afternoon after i get home with girls i get a phonecall from the principal saaying there has beinga announce ment and the education depmartment have decided to build us a brand new school worth 3.4 million dollers and a bit more once the current school has sold...So he asked me to bring caitlyn back to school as the paper was there and wanted pictures and interview me, well of course i said ok give me 20 minutes and be there... so we got her changed back in her uniform and raced back up there... So they asked me how i felt, and how it would impact on my kids... I said it would be great for brodie more so, as when they open this new school it is going to be right next door to the high school, and the y are having shared rescourses, and what a great transition for brodie for him to get ready for high school... The girls will be fine, as they will have their little friends and a new class.... I also mentioned a few issues around it, but im sure that they will work together and make sure our kids get the best education there is...

Mick and brodie are doing well in sydney, and will be back monday yayyyyy, chloe will be stoked as will be and caitlyn, but its chloe that has being affected the most, as daddy has never being away from her like this....

Well tonight im having a girls night out at rock n roll, and am going to have a ball., should be a good night..

So here now i let you all know how i went with chloes party... It was good and everyone was impressed with how we did it...She got heaps of presents., and only one child peeved me off lol...The cake didnt end up being dora as they couldnt get it in, so i will be speaking to the manager about that as the girl was quite rude to me...

So besides all that mick and brodie are still having a ball

the girls and i are missing them and chloe every time i growl she says she wants her daddy...

Well hope you all have had a great day, and i chat as soon as i can get all  my files back ..

 

today was ok... i was all set to get the house in order before school starts back tomorrow and huh what a joke.. Chloe and Caitlyn were pains in the bums all day, and i got the house semi tidy and everytime i turned around they were into something else... Acheieved one thing, i vaccuemed the car out nad got it smelling nice.... We also got things prepared for chloes party tomorrow and not going to be 2  fussed as i had to use my credit on my phone yesterday to find out who was coming- how rude...

Well the boys are having a ball- nice for them..
 
Hope the girls will settle down early tonight, and back to school lunches and busy week ahead of me...

ok chat to some of u all soon..

today as some of you know i had to attend my great uncles party..Well when i arrived i got to meet up with one of my younger cousins that i havnt saw since brodie was a baby, so i met his fiancee and all was good...All the relatives arrived and then my great uncle turned up, and he was over welmed.... A few of us went to the bar and ordered a drink, and one of my favourite uncles told us girls to put our money away as he was buying the drinks... So that was good as well.. Only one hiccup, and that was with one of my uncles as his new wife said to him who i was and he said that was bev(my mum) and david(my dad) daughter, and made a passing comment to her about me being there, well one of my aunts heard him and said to him well less she turned up, where the fuck is her parents and sisters hey, and no comment., i cracked up....  The meals were great and we had 2 cakes and my great uncle got very tired and thanked everyone and gave out cards with his address and phone number, and said to each of us that he would love to get to know his great great nieces and nephews, so i promised him that when he isnt in respite i will bring mick and the kids down to see him....

After all that  i took th girls to macdonalds as they didnt come to lunch with me, and so they had a happy meal and a icecream... Then had a little play as it was dark and cold...

Tonight im going to wait to they are asleep and have a few cans and wind down...

Heard from mick and brodie and they are doing well, and no where near the storms thank god...

Thanx for all the support and i will chat to a few of u later..

Well today i had to do the hardest thing ever and even that i know that they are coming back, it still hurt... Mick and brodie had me and the girls drop them off to the airport this morning and we didnt stick around as the girls and i were upset.. Mick has just called and said that he was pleased that we didnt stick around as their plane was delayed by a hour so that made them late to get to sydney....They caught the train and bus to micks nans and he said that the flight was good and brodie jumped on the phone and said it was cool..They took nan out to dinner tonight at the canterbury leagues club and they both said it was nice..

Well us girls went visiting today and rocked up to my aunties and the girls got to play with their cousins...While we were there i helped my auntie fix her computer as she had a worm trojan in her computer, 2 hours later it was fixed, and i was amazed as my computer never behaved that well, so ias much as it felt good to fix it, i thought why couldnt my computer behave like that hehe...

Well thats it for me so im going to try and have a girly 10 days and relax, and tomorrow i get to go and see my great uncle that i havnt saw for 10 years as its his birthday and the rellies have thrown him a surprise party... Hope all goes well there... Will blog about that tomorrow..

Ok thanx for reading and have a great weekend...

Today we got organised to get mick and brodie ready for their flight out og here tomorrow as they go on a adventure trip to sydney...So off we went to town and paid our loan and got more money for the boys..We then went to kmart and got ,ore party food for chloes party that she will be having at her creche on monday.. Mick and brodie then had their hair cut as it was way ovedue..... We then had to go and get some food/meat... Chloe was good tofay considering she didnt get much sleep last night as she had a migraine... we brought her a pair of sunnies as well  as she was saying that her eyes were a bit tired lol..... Caitlyn came home from her nans and she wasnt well either and we went to a community program and we only lasted half hour there as caitlyn wanted to come home.. Mick is feeling bad as he sprayed some stuff on his mums tiles yesterday to prepare for him to paint, and it must have being strong smell as it made the girls get migraines..But i said to him thats why they have those warnings on those bottles... Well hopefully caitlyn will be ok like chloe was today... ok let you all know how i go at the air port tomorrow as its going to be sad as ive never being away from mick and brodie at the same time..

Sorry if this is all you have read in my blog the last few days but thats all thats has being happening in my place ..

Any way today chloe turned 4, so at 9am this morning she woke and caitlyn showed chloe where her presents were..So she got brodie and they all came in to our room and chloe unwrapped ehr presents...This bit is so cute, she opened up a set of dvds of dora the explorer and she looked at me as she was in trouble and i said '''what chloe'' she said when do they have to go back to the store, as she has being borrowing heaps of dvds lastely lol..Well i said that these dont need to be returned.. Well her eyes lit up and she was so excited..Her other presents were a Dora watch, Dora money box, Dora socks, Dora activity set....And tomorrow she is getting a dvd player for her room..

So for today we went to the community centre and made some homemade pizza in a pizza oven made out of sand and clay.... Was very diffrent and tasted ok..We also made a apple crumble and sang happy birthday to chloe..After that we had a mix game of basketball/netball and neither team knew the rules hehe..

Tonight my mil came over and she brought tea for us, and she asked chloe what did she want and chloe said KFC ..So thatw ent down well and  i have to go to the gym tomorrow to work it out lol..

So thats our day and we have mick home as he is on holidays and we need to organise his and brodie''s suitcase for friday..

Had a relaxing day after we endured chloes party  yesterday and as you all know it went well... Had a bit of a giggle this morning as my aunt calls me and says how well my party was and where did i get certain items. and it make me think what was all the fuss about she was carying on about on saturday..... So today we cleaned up and found all the presents she got. and she was wrapped that she got a dora outfit and blanket, and some makeup, and books and cds.... so she done well....

So im sitting here thinking wheres those years gone and i cant believe she is going to be 4 tomorrow.....

So will be wrapping all her dora things soon and putting her to bed for the last time as her being 3.... and get ready for a busy day tomorrow as her dad has the day off before he and brodie go to sydney on friday...

Ok will try and blog tomorrow on how she went being 4..

Today was chloes party and yesterday i asked how was i going to host a party with my auntie putting me in the lurch with her daughter having allergies..

Well we started the day with chloe starting her party early and got into some of her party food and when it was near enough to organise it all there was missing items, so after a few tears from me and chloe, we both realised it wasnt end of the world, and brodie and i went to the shop and replaced some of the items hehe..

So at 12.30 we kicked off the party with enough food to feed a army and no show of my auntie, so we thought she decided not to come, so we all ate and there was plenty of food left over and my auntie showed up with her girls at 1pm as she had some issues to deal with..Well for a little girl that didnt eat party food, she certanly ate what was left over...

So we played pass the parcel and they kiddies got a lolly pop each and Chloe won the prize after we had to redraw it as we had a extra child oops hehe.... So after that we had a pinata that i made and the kids had a ball, and then we had the cake of my little poney, played some more games...

Chloe was absolutely spoilt and loved all her presents from her friends and family...

When it was time to give out the lolly bags, my cousin said where was her lollies as we did a separate bag to her, and i explained to her what her mum said and she said i do eat lollies....Well i went to my aunt and said that her daughter wanted lollies and she said thats ok, if she is offered them she can have a little bit, grrrrrrrrrr yesterday she said no lollies..so lucky i had spare and we quickly resolved that issue...

 I hope her next party isnt so stressful hehe..

Another news i like to share is that my sister is in newcastle and i was pleased to hear from her and she said that all is well there and power and phone  is back on, and not so restricted. So that made my day as well....

Thank god all went well today and now i can relax a bit ....

Last night i made a promise that i was going to step away from the computer and msn and go and take the kids out for the day and have some fun....So after my niece left we headed to the nearest commumnity centre and joined in with a holiday program of making solitice music instruments and lanterns....We had a ball, and we made some rain sound shakers and it was so cool to sit back and relax and learn something new.... We had lunch there supplied and i helped in the kitchen and we had toasted sandwiches, and soup available.... After that we headed to the video shop and got a card for brodie as down here this shop allows kids from 5 to 12 years have a card for the school holidays and they get to hire dvds or videos for $2.00 each and can have them for 3 nights or for the week... Then we headed to the supermarket crazy idea that was, it was packed and chloe was tired and wanted her birthday cake today and not sunday.... So that was a bit hard...  Got home and mick was up and doing some housework and he cooked tea as i was tired.... So i was pleased to get out today, but have to get stuck into this place tomorrow for sunday arghhhhhhhhhh hate housework...

Ok HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND, AND I TRY AND RELAX NOW ...

Day 4 of the school holidays in tassie and my kids are starting to getting itchy feet and so am i as we are not used to being home.I thought that it would be good to be home but its not happening as soon as i do housework they are messing it up, and im sure everyone can relate to that...Today i decided to take them to the park to burn of some energy and i really enjoyed it and so did they...We had a group activity from the community centre there so the kids participated in a few games... So tomorrow i have decided we are going to join in more activities at the centre and make some music instruments for  a Solstice Celabration, should be interesting... Besides that im feeling good and a bit sad as chloe is getting near to being 4 and i cant believe how quick thats gone.....
Ok  thats it for me and i let you all know how we went with the music instruments.....

just wanted everyone to know that im sorry for what occured yesterday and last night, as i was in a emotional mess  and my head was spinning and i was not thinking straight...  I am truly sorry and i hope that with this second chance i have being given i can contuie on as a valued minti mum and contuie making friends and helping others....

I have always will stick by my friends and hope that they would do the same for me- i would like to say a huge thanx to Angie(cookclan) as without her support and guidance i wouldnt know where i am at..
 Also would like to thank all my msn friends as well...

I understand if a few people that may be upset with me and i hope in time that we can have a chat about this as i value all the friendships i have made on here...

Once again thankyou for all the support and thankyou admin for giving me this chance to apoligise and promise that i will foreward on any grievances on to the proper channels next time ..
I hope that

i had the best new tonight after today i needed it...Anyway mick answered the phone and then when he got off he said you wouldnt believe it, and we all said what...Well the bugger said we had to wait until he had a smoke...So then the phone rings again and he says congrats to who was on the phone,and me and the kids are like come on dad lol...Well he passes the phone to me,and my bil said hello auntie caz, and i scrilled as he is going to be a DADDY..... So im so excited and cant wait to have a baby in the family and most likely have a wedding as well whohoo...

Well thats my news for the day, Besides that i went shopping for chloes party on sunday ...

First day of school holidays here in tassie and i have survived yayyyyyyyyy.....
So usual stuff we watched dvds and done some houssework..

Then this arvo i decided i was ready to get pumped and go to the gym as i had last week off as the girls wernt well... so it was good to get back and feel energetic again, was a bit sore afterwards lol....

Also got a surprise today, one of my sisters doesnt speak to me, and she got married 5 weeks ago, so i thought i send her a card from the kids and see what happens, well she finally got back and said thankyou to the kids, and even addressed it to them... My name wasnt mentioned and for the first time in 14 years i didnt get upset as i used too...

So thats it for me for the day..

today was ok  as i set out to make sure the bug had gone fro my computer and it was thank god... Anyway picked a new bug at home- the dreaded head lice with caitlyn so out come the tea tree and conditioner and done her hair and stripped the beds .... After that mick got up and squabbled with me over stupied shit, and then he headed to his mums... When he came back, brodie was with him as brodie stayed at his nans last night... Well caitlyn said due to the school holidays she anted to stay at her nans, and brodie said no nan said she needs a break- well excuse us she has each of my kids once  a week, and then she asks for them to sleep over, so that comment put me in a shit, and said fine that she will get a break, the kids werent to stay with her at the holidays..... so then mick flaired up, and i just ignored him...Well his mum, sister and her kids came for dinner, and his sister being a smart arse as usual... well it got to much for me, and everyone  wa yelling and carrying on, and i spat i.brodie was a smarty at that and i lost it with him. and made him cry and mick said something and i told him to get out with his family, well of course he didnt go..Brodie and i had a chat and it was all good after that....

Will be glad when mick goes away soon, as i think the time away will help us both, and brodie is going as well, so that wil be good for him...

what a day as i started out all good and got my house work done and then jumped on to msn and then all of a sudden this pic came up and  it sent my computer crazy, after i freaked, we tried the anti virus scans 1000 times and  no it would it wouldnt budge as it was a huge trojan, now it wasnt any ones fault, it happens to the best of us...So we deleted my msn and started all over again and its all good now.

Tonight we took the girls to the video shop as we are on school holidays and the video shop have a kiddies special on where the kids can get their own card.. Caitlyn was so proud of her self as she had to sign her own name, so she got a dvd for her, one for chloe and one for brodie, she is such a sweety.....  So we watched caitlyns tonight,and i thought it was a bit scary, and the girls laughed at me... It was called monsters house....   well hope all is well on the computer now for all...

had a good day morning as i went shopping for chloes bday which is in 11 sleeps, and got heaps pf bargains, like 2 dora the explorer dvds and a poster pack with textas for 35 dollers, dora socks for 3.90, and yesterday i got a money box and watch of dora from woolies for 13.00 dollers....

Then went to the school and tried to avoid brodies teacher from last year as she is leaving again as she was only casual and last year when we said bye to her we all bawled... well i sent brodie to her to say goodbye and she came to me and she was crying and whammo it started as i cried then.. Well the principal was there and he said walk with me and he apoligised as he said his hands were tyed and he tried to keep her on, but it was out of his hands... So we are on holidays for 2 weeks now,  and its going to be nice to relax a little....

Well im having fun chatting on msn tonight, so im heading back there.....
