I havn't blogged for a few days, as i wanted to feel comfortable to do so, due to unforseen reasons, and now all is resolved i am back lol..

This week i have had heaps of tafe work to do.. Tuesday we had a day where we played a game where we all had to get to know each other , and also we all bet who killed sam in home and away.. so 6 out of 19 got it right....  Wednesday was my day off, and i went food shopping, as i decided that i needed   to stop buying at tafe, as i have a featish for chocolate and take away food. so enjoyed the shopping. Came home and mick and i had a diffrence of opioion, and i had some other issues to deal with, but all is good, and  we have talked and all is good now.. I also have to do something for me as well, but its very personal and dont want to go there,.. All i want you all to know is to not to worry, and i am fine...

Thursday went to tafe, and did a negative versus positive survey and also a survial skill worksheet, and was very interesting.... Learnt heaps, and also am going to work on some of the strategys..

Today was nerve racking as i had my final first aid test, and thought i didnt do well, but the teacher said i need to believe in myself more, and done well, and PASSED, yay,....

so thats all good and now have a Cert 2 First aid for children services, and work place...

This weekend we have a little boy who is 9 staying with us,, and tomorrow brodie has his soccer again.. Caitlyn and i will be making some LCM bars this weekend as well..

Chloe wants to go to nans tonight so will be one child down..

Sorry this blog is so long.. Hope everyone has a great weekend..

Todays events..

by cazzaComment Published at 06:0506:0511 comments11 comments21 Visits21 VisitsReport

Today Brodie had his first soccer match, and was very hard as we had 7 girls that never played soccer up against boys that have being playing for 2- 3 years... So we got flogged, and i was impressed with Mick and his Coaching ability as he said to them all that no one is a loser. and no one is to hold their head down, he wants to see them hold their head high all season,.. Brodie played well, and slipped over a few times, and the dads from the other team were lucky they never wore my clip board around their heads, as they kept on commenting on how brodie was slipping over, and other comments, and i said to them you get out there and play then, and see how good u are, as it was slippery. so all good and think i have to stand on the other side of the field..

Came home and got ready to go to a clothes party  at my aunts, and took caitlyn with me.. saw my cousins wife the one that lost her baby, and she is doing as well as she can...  Ordered some slippers and a lunch box gear for the girls, and said to the lady i do brodie at the next party as he just got some clothes from ebay.. Was a good night out..

Hope everyone is having a good weekend..

Being a long day..

by cazzaComment Published at 03:2803:284 comments4 comments15 Visits15 VisitsReport

Today was the longest day this week... Went to tafe this morning and passed in my first assignment, and fingers crossed i done well, as it took 3 attempts to get it right..  We also learnt how to do a hazard report and also occupational and health and safety...

After tafe came home and there was a huge mess, as chloe had a little tea party while daddy slept,. so cleaned it all up. and Mick has asked his mum to watch chloe tuesdays and thursdays now while i am at tafe, as its not fair on chloe to entertain herself, even that she had a field day..

Went to go shopping for myself today and had to get rainchecks as the items hadnt come in,,. so did that, and then went meat shopping, that was so expensive..

This afternoon the kids got to do Takoo(sp) drumming and they had a ball...

Tonight we have being studying First aid as i have to resit my first aid certificate to get Into childcare.. The kids were rofl at me as i told them to pretend they were unconsious... So fingers crossed that my nerves will settle as i have a test on that and bandages tomorrow..

Hope everyone has a great weekend..

So Proud of my children...

by cazzaComment Published at 20:1320:1328 comments28 comments31 Visits31 VisitsReport

Last week our school ran a election to be a School Representives Student. Now there was 54 kids that went for it out of 101 .. So they all done their speeches in front of their class...

So today the results were giving to them at class and also the assembly.... Brodie didn't make the rep team, but he went up and shook the boys hand that won by one vote.... Caitlyn didn't make it either, but she is happy to not have the responsibility..

But when we got to the assembly the principal had a surprise, and for all the students that lost by a point, get to rep the school and be called in if the other student is sick, leaves the school etc..

Brodie and my niece got that oppurnity, and i said to them that i was proud of them regardless if they got nominated or a placement...They all show leadership, are friendly and show respect to the teachers, Guests  and to the community.. and that in it self shows that mick and i are doing well.. They also are friendly, and will help anyone out that wants their help..

So I also wanted to thank all my Friends for all the support and friendships i have formed on here, and for the ones that dont know me well, hope to get to know you all..

12 years of marriage today..

by cazzaComment Published at 07:2007:2028 comments28 comments37 Visits37 VisitsReport

Today i have being married for 12 years..

This is my Love story and what our day was like on my wedding day back then...

It was Easter saturday and the sun was shining... i slept at my mums the njght before, as they say its bad luck to see each other the night before..

Woke up on my wedding day, and my sisters and micks best friend arrived, and we had a champagne breakfast with pancakes...

We then set off into town and had our hair and nails done.... came home and felt like a princess,, drank some more and had pics done...

The cars arrived and we all set out to go to the church... The car me and my dad were travelling in decided to take a diffrent route, and made me late by half hour..

Once i arrived at the church,, poor mick had broke out in a sweat as he sent his best man out the front to see what was keeping me hehe. and my sister didnt know..

Walking down the aisle,, i was so nervous and cried as everyone had their eyes on me.. Once i reached mick i felt so safe and knew he was the one that i wanted to be with forever.

So we done our wedding Vowels and then had more pics and headed to the casino where there was more pics.. By then it started to sprinkle.. and we headed to the reception... I still felt so loved and was the best day of my life... The  car we travelled in done a burnout outside the reception area lol...

Ate heaps, drank lots and danced and had the best speeches.... The funny part was that the bridal party shortsheeted our water bed, and put water on top of the top sheet,, but not realising we dont have too sheets on our bed..  They also put sugar, salt, and pepper in it..

It wasnt too the next morning after that we were told, and the manager said play alone to it to the bridal party... so we did...

Mick and i had a gorgeous honeymoon and travelled parts of tasmania,...

We have had 12 years of ups and downs in our marriage, but no marriage is perfect... But we do have is the love for each other, and 3 gorgeous Children that we love and protect....

So so day..

by cazzaComment Published at 02:3002:3011 comments11 comments17 Visits17 VisitsReport

Today it was a nice day and we headed to the carers BBQ that was organised from glenhaven. It was sad that many didnt turn up, but good for the little boy we have with us as he got to see his brother and sister.. Didnt take kindly to their carer as she was asking far too much and trying to tell me how to care for the little boy i have,.... So we stayed for a hour, and then we headed to chloes creche , just,, as we were run off the road, thank god for power steering, or we would have being upside in a ditch, Bloody men drivers...

So we got to chloes creche as they were having a family fun day there, and the kids got their face painted and done some activities.. We then went and got chloe from her aunts as she had being and gone by the time we arrived...

Came home done heaps of washing. and housework. pointless as the house is a mess again...

Tonight mick phoned, and i am feeling a bit down, as tomorrow is our wedding anniversey, married for 12 years, and i wont see him to tea time.. He seems to be having a good time over there, and he asked what was wrong with me, and i lied and said i was tired, as i want him to enjoy what he is doing and not be cross or think i cant cope.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend,...

Today mick headed off at 5.30 and had to be at the air port at 6.10 to fly to Melbourne,.. This weekend he is with his mum, brother, sil and nephew in bairnsdale... So will be good for them all as micks brother boy is only 7 weeks old... We all didnt go because its a long wait in melbourne for the train and buses Once on the train it takes 3 hours to get to bairnsdale... No way would i be doing that with my 3 at this young age..

So im home and decided today to search the house to see how this mouse got in and was there any signs of droppings and none,, its a one and only one , phew.... So took the kids to school, and the young boy we have with us, came shopping and then we came home....  While doing the house,. we blew 2 Fuses, and i called mick and said why is it every time you go away something goes wrong, and the first thing he said was, have i smashed the car, hmm... so told him what had happened, and he said go next door and get my neighbour to fix it.. So my neighbour fixed one and then a another blew hehe, so in the end he went to the shops and got a circuit breaker and put it in... so a very adventrous day..

Tonight we having a footy party, around the tv, and have lots of party food, and Go the Saints(st kilda)

Also today i Got a letter back from the child care centre i applied for a job at before easter, and they have i will be informed of a time when they want to interview me, Fingers crossed that after my course i land a Job...

Thursday Blog..

by cazzaComment Published at 23:5723:5718 comments18 comments35 Visits35 VisitsReport

Well today didnt want to get out of bed, as last night we had a black out for 2 hours, and silly me didnt know where the candles were, or a torch that worked,, and i was so mad as i was watching underbelly. and its the only night my children will go to bed early and settle as i told them its not nice for them to hear or watch that show for children....

So anyway thank god my neighbour was home and we all sat over there and talked and laughed and she said that it would be interesting to see what other households were doing, as no one talks much no more.. So 2 HOURS later we headed back home and brodie and caitlyn settled down well.. Chloe was at her aunts and was having a ball there with the blackout...

Went to shut the front door and this little Jack russel turned up on my door, so i let her in and called RSPCA and they were trying to locate the owner,, No such luck and mick called and said to them we hold her to morning.. Thank god the dog was house trained.. This morning they called and said the owner was located and was coming to get her... In the mean time their was a mouse in the house and the Dog caught it,  and i screamed and cried out to mick as i am petrified of mice.. Brodie and Caitlyn were ewww and ROFL at me,, Mick came out and got the mouse of the dog before he fully swallowed it.. Mick has reassured me that all the house is mouse free now, as i said to him  i will be the one to go away this weekend instead of him , if not..

So anyway all that excitement over, and took the kids to school. and then headed to tafe,, accidently drove in the wrong entrance and thought i had smashed the car, as i heard a clunk, but no just going over a cement speed hump. No damage to the car thank god..

Today at tafe we done First aid and sure has changed since i did it 18 months ago, so was good to be given the updated new version of it all... So have 2 more classes of that and then will have a Cert 2 in childrens services first aid...

Tonight we have a little boy we have had before come and stay with us for the weekend and was meant to come yesterday but due to my tafe today he had  to come today... So all good and should be a interesting weekend, and No drinking for me, as mick will be away...

Hope everyone has had a great DAY AND the storms have cleared from yesterday,,, sure did make a mess in tassie....

Rain and windy day, up and down day.

by cazzaComment Published at 00:1700:1717 comments17 comments29 Visits29 VisitsReport

Today the weather in tassie has being shocking, it has being raining and blowing a gale all day,.. Took the kids to school and nearly got blown off the road, and then me and my sil went shopping, as she needed our taxi service as my mil is away..

So we headed to the shops and got some great bargains, she spent more then me, but i got more groceries hehe... so all good,..

Why is it when you think you going to have a good day, and then some one comes along and tries and knock you down... Today while shopping my Birth mother and sister were there, and they were trying to pick a fight with me, and so i said to them fuck Off, and tell someone that cares.. So then i walked on.. Then my Birth brother has the cheek to get my sister that i talk too  to ask what i being doing,, like i going to tell him,,,, he hasnt spoken to me for 4 years and when my little sister got married he could''nt even come and see my kids and me,, IM SO OVER MY BIRTH FAMILY...

after all of the above,, the school and the community centre joined together and ran a program for the kids,,, so they all got to bungee jump on a plastic tunnel ...  My  niece sprained her ankle while doing it,, so hope she be ok...

So tonight have to do heaps of housework, as tomorrow we have a little boy coming in a day early,  so he will be with us for the weekend, and mick will be away....

Thinking of the melbourne minti members as the weather is worse over there....

Had a great day..

by cazzaComment Published at 23:3723:3711 comments11 comments20 Visits20 VisitsReport

This morning got up and was all refreshed after having a good early nights sleep.. Brodie was the first up, and i said to him we had to leave early as we needed to get petrol and 2 cakes from woolies that i ordered to take to tafe as one of the students in my course turned 18 on the weekend... Brodie said to me Mum I dont feel well, and might stay home, and i said to him ok, whats wrong , and he turned around and ROFL  , and said April fools mum.. Little shit hehe..

So we got organised and headed out the door, done what we needed and headed to school.. Was running late, but it was all good..

My car  was making a funny noise this morning,, and when we got to school. i thought i get brodie back on april fools... So went to his class just before the bell , and said to him mate we have to walk home, the car wont start,, and he was oh ok, thats cool,, haha,, april fool brodie, and he was like oh well,, bugger again lol.. So found out the power steering needed oil...

Got to tafe, and today we watched videos on safe food handling, and also done posters on sun safety...

We all split into groups and had to prepare afternoon tea, so one group had to do gluten free, the other nut free, and the other dairy free.. we then all discussed and showed what we made and got to eat the food.. We also had the bday cake and was very yummy...

Chloe got to go back to reading Rox today as i got out early from tafe, so she was stoked about that...

Came home,. and brodie and mick went to soccer practice, and this year brodie gets to play in a mostly girls team, and he is cool about that, as his mate is there as well...

Hope everyone is having a great day.... Mil has arrived and has settled well in melbourne, and chloe will be staying at her aunts tomorrow nite...
