TO MY:      
  Girlfriend and Sister'sWeek
I am only as strong as the coffee I drink, the hairspray I use and the friends I have. To the cool women that have touched my life. Here's to you!

National Girlfriends Day   What would most of us do without our sisters, confidants and shopping, lunching, and traveling girls? Let's celebrate each other for each other's sake!   TO MY GIRLFRIENDS!

If you get this twice you know you have more than one girlfriend. Be Happy! PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO ALL OF YOUR GIRLFRIENDS AND RETURN IT TO THE FRIEND WHO SENT IT TO YOU! It is good to be a woman:  
  1. We got off the Titanic first.   2. We can scare male bosses with the mysterious gynecological disorder excuses. 3 Taxis stop for us. 4. We don't look like a frog in a blender when dancing. 5. No fashion faux pas we make, could ever rival the Speedo. 6. We don't have to pass gas to amuse ourselves.   7. If we forget to shave, no one has to know.   8. We can congratulate our teammate without ever touching her rear end. 9.  We never have to reach down every so often to make sure our privates are still there. 10. We have the ability to dress ourselves. 11. We can talk to the opposite sex without having to picture them naked 12. If we marry someone 20 years younger,   we are aware that we will look like an idiot.   13. We will never regret piercing our ears   14. There are times when chocolate really can solve all your problems. 15. We can make comments about how silly men are in their presence because they aren't listening anyway. Send this to all the bright women you know and make their day!!!!!
     

 

 

Don't you just hate it when you accidentally delete your digital photos from your camera or phone?  I'm usually really pedantic when it comes to making sure all my photos are stored correctly and can't ever be destoyed or lost but I've managed to do it twice in the last 6 months and I could just kick myself!!!!!!

Oh well I'll just have to get more!!!!!  The sadest thing is that I can remember the ones I have lost and there is no way that I can ever replace them.   Things like little miss 3 enjoying her first Mocca Chino at a Cafe with her Aunty - she was very cute with her little finger held out while she was drinking and with chocolate all over her face!!!!  LOL

Josh's first trip to Rottnest  with all the photos of his first this and first that!!!!    Boo Hoo!!!!

 

Wow it's been such a busy week this week.  Starting with a doggy rescue on Monday morning after dropping my hubby off to work.  I was driving back to pick up the eldest for school when I saw the most gorgeous little dog almost get skittled by a big 4WD.  He was only a pup with absolutely no road sense and no collar on, so I stopped my car and called him over.  He was not afraid at all which made me think that there was someone who was going to be really upset that he was missing.  I knocked on a ladies door to see if she had seen him around, hoping that I might be able to find his owners right there and then, but no.  So I took him home.

I did all the usual things rang the pound left my name and his description, rang the local vets and did the same thing.  Waited a couple of days but no one claimed him.  So I put signs up down the street I found him on hoping that would work.  Next morning I received a phone call from an exstatic young man looking for his little dog.

Happy to say the little dog that my kids named Jack (he was a jack russel) was returned to his rightful owners non the worse for wear since he didn't have to be couped up in a cage at the pound.  With some motherly advice about making sure that their little dog had his collar on next time.   I'm still surprised that the guys didn't ring the pound but I guess when your that young you just don't think about that stuff.

My little ones were very upset that they had lost their little dog even though we had explained that he wasn't ours to keep and that we would have to give him back if the people who owned him came to get him.

But my logical ten year old stated "that since the owners didn't have kids and that they hadn't made sure he didn't run away we should be allowed to keep him"  Mmmmmmm outta the mouth of babes heheheheheheheh.

  Little Jack

This weekend has been the biggest writeoff for quite some time.  I don't know where the time went.  We decided to have our house valued and I have been running around trying to get it sorted out so it looks presentable but it doesn't seem to be coming together AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Then we went to a party last night for a friends 30th (Geez I felt old!!!!) and another friend of ours who is pregnant - only 1 month go was there ....... god help my husband I got so very clucky!!!!!  He really needs to go do that snip snip thing  LOL!!!!!!  Then our friend who's birthday it was tells us all she's pregnant, our sons are only 2 weeks apart in age we were both due one day apart me on the 1st sept and her on the 2nd  2005.  Anyway I kept thinking about my little man and how quick he has grown up and wishing that he was that tiny little dependant thing I had for that short period of time. 

I must be insane to even contemplate the idea of another child at my age but there I was thinking how wonderful it would be to have another little Josh (2 girls and 2 boys would be nice).   Then I got to thinking about how hard it would be to try and carry (with the complication I have) another baby and deal with the two little ones as well and it just isn't viable so guess I'll just have to spend lots of time with our friends.  LOL

Anyway you get that, guess we all feel like this when you know its the last and you just want to hold onto them for as long as you can and keep them little.

   LOL he looks cross eyed!!!!!!

Don't have much in the way of exciting things to report.  

Going about my business at home.  Drop off at school, organise house, do the washing feed the littluns, pick up after hurricane 1 and 3,  pick up after school, Nag slo mo 10 to do her chores, swimming lessons with Miss 3 and master 1, run Miss 10 to swimming squad 3 times a week!!!!!!

BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!!!!!!!

Oh dear there go the Police Helicopters over our house again!!!!!   No friends they are not hunting me  I'm an

   hehehehehehehehehehe.

Wow has it been that long since I dropped a blog in here.   Guess I'm having too much fun with Selly's teachings  It's been stiffling hot here and the kids are really feeling it to the point that their tempers are frayed and patience is non-existant (oh hang on that's my patience LOL!!!!!!). Little miss 3 is in the bad books after breaking our expensive stereo system that hubby and I bought for each other as a wedding present.   (we still cant locate the missing piece).  She's just lucky she looks so damn cute!!!!! They all had swimming yesterday.  Little miss 3 had her first lesson in the pool without me and it is a worry because she is so confident in water she barely listened to anything the teacher was telling her, she kept swimming off.    I think master 1 is going to be just like her, he had his first ever swimming lesson yesterday and all he wanted to do was swim on his own only problem is that he would have sunk to the bottom if I let him go!!!!!!! Miss 10 has started doing swimming squad, I think we have finally found a sport that she is good at and likes to do.    Mmmmmm it will be interesting to see how long that lasts!!!!! Oh well time for bed.
