Me and My Family

We live in SW Victoria in a regional town. I am recently separated from my husband of 8 years so it is just me, the Librarian-In-Training (2 1/2) and The Cat (10). I work 4 days a week at my paid employment of teacher librarian.

I my spare time I enjoy reading, cross stitch, scrapbooking (digi and paper) and knitting.

Oh, and cooking shows... I'm a sucker for them... :)

She's growing up...

Comment Published at 03:1203:121 comments1 comments98 Visits98 VisitsReport
This is my baby's last night in her cot. I am a little sad. But excited at the same time. I took some photos of her in it so that I could remeber what she looked like when she was small.

Mind you, with both grandmothers only just on the 5 foot mark she's probably never going to be all that big... LOL.

Long time no write...

As you can see I have not updated since the 16th!

L-I-T has had not just croup (which took at least 3-4 days to get over - I know this doesn't seem long but it is long for her) but also gastro. ARGH! She so hates being sick - I would not be surprised if she swallowed it in order not to have it pass out of her! Poor little thing. And she'll not throw up into a bucket or any kind of basin so I just have lots of towels hanging around and hope I can catch it.

I am still folding the towels... LOL. After a good napisan wash of course.

But she seems to be really picking up now a week later.

And this weekend she will be going into a bed! I have bought it (and a mattress) as well as a trundle. Since I am not at work tomorrow I will be off to get a doona (probably wool) and some sheets. Since I won't be putting it up until the weekend I will take her out on Saturday morning to choose the doona cover. I think she will be pretty excited... :)

Well, here I am after travelling half the day! I am so tired. Got to catch up with Chrysalis on the way and that was FUN!

Conference tomorrow and then I get to play digiscrapping so looking forward to that. Have to train it into the city for the conference so not so happy with that but I'll live!

Catch you all later!

Croup!

That pretty much sums up my life at the moment! My poor baby has it again. We seem to get it every six months. Although this time she is on antibiotics as well as the steroid. Poor thing.

Thankfully her nose is running so hopefully it will loosen up more soon. I have cranked up the vapouriser and she has managed a couple hours of sleep this afternoon - am hoping tonight will be a lot better than last night where I was up several times and in the end took her into my bed as I couldn't hear how well she was breathing.

To top it all off I was snoozing on the couch and there was some salesperson at the door! Nothing like a knock to wake you up! Grrr.

Anyway, the house is a mess so will take this opportunity to have a bit of a tidy up before she wakes up.
