a little R and R

i think not!!! i have just returned from what was meant to be a relaxing weekend retreat with the girls from scrapbook city, you know the kind, a little scrapping, a little chatting, a bit of dinner, WELL OMG, and you guys say that i am full on, let me tell you these girls give me a run for my money! I would have to say, i have never ever had a weekend like this before... i was in stitches the whole time away, the classes were incredible, the company totally enjoyable and food to the eyeballs...not to mention a little of the "no alcohol allowed" NOT!!! YOU GiRLS ROCK!! I learnt so much (and not only about scrapping)!!!

Master Dozer and Miss Hiccup are doing wonderful, MD has had the vomiting/cold/flu virus for a couple of days, not to mention a sore ankle from footy, but he is on the up now! MH is so clever!!! she doing more and more everyday, everything to her is fish!!!! we say mum mum mum mum she says fish, we say dad dad dad dad she says fish!!! gees i know i look like a groper sometimes but.....

Cheque is still working hard as ever, will not say any more about my hubby in case it is "taken the wrong way" and maybe "slandered" a little so thats it about him!

thats all today ....Ax

when the going gets tough

the tough cut there work hrs!!!! yes i have down graded my working hours. and i have to say that master dozer and miss hiccup are much happier for it! I have gone from 30hrs to 16hrs a week, so yes i have almost halved it!!! (it will be easier on the cheque as well, as he doesn't have to have them as much).....much to his relief.. Miss hiccup was becoming a bit of a hand full... we put it down to seperation anxiety! Well i am off to another scrapbooking retreat next weekend... and for all of you that say "another one, god your selfish".....and you know who you are. Big rasperries to you!!! I know i don't have to justify my self, so i wont!!!.. my hubby is encouraging me to go so i am.

As i said earlier miss hiccup is doing much better, still a little clingy, but nowhere near what she was like...so yay! She is almost crawling, she can get one leg going, but the other is still in no go mode! but it will happen, she is sitting up really well now and holding and drinking from her sippy cup by herself, she is also blowing kisses, its toooo cute, she sort of blows this sloppy spitty kiss while rolling her tongue.. so talented...just like her mum!

Master dozer is well, he came off his skateboard on the weekend, and is all bandaged, his wrist is sore and swelling bigger by the day, i am taking him for an xray tomorrow, as they say he may have chipped the bone...poor kid! Which will mean no footy for a couple of weeks, he is not impressed! He has a new teacher for the rest of the year, a young male teacher Mr Ashton, and the kids think he is fantastic, his last teacher retired during the school holidays ( much to the classes joy)!! He had a band day last week at the local high school it was "battle of the bands" i don't know how they went, he wont tell me!!! cant have been to good!

Well now for the cheque......he is turning the big 40 this weekend!!! he is coping with it o.k. hasn't really mentioned it much... although he did put a colour in his hair, so maybe it is affecting him a little! He and daddy dooroo, have just started a little bistro of there own at the toowong bowls club, wont make any money they say, but they are enjoying themselves!!! daddy dooroo is quite the social one so he is really enjoying having a chat with all the members, they are really nice people, we went down for dinner a couple of nights ago, and by the time we left, we pretty much all knew each other...lol.. who would have thought lawn bowlers could be so much fun!!

Happy birthday Chloe, hope you had a great day!

well thats about it at the moment, feel free to pop over to my other site and see my latest creations, and maybe leave a comment of 2, but other than that have fun... and thanks for reading!!!!.......Ax
