A BIG hello from Me to You

Hey from me to you, Easter has come and gone for another year. I love Easter the weather is not to hot and not to cold, and its a great time to have a break and 4 days to relax and enjoy, we (family) went out on the yaught and watched the begining of the Brisbane to Gladstone race always exciting sitting along the starting line and sailing a little way with them, It was such a hot day that I and the kids jumped overboard me cloths and all. We sailed home and enjoyed a Good Friday family and friends BBQ a fun and relaxing day had by all. The rest of the weekend was spent watching movies and enjoying some day sleeps...mmm love my mumma naps. Before I knew it though it was Tuesday and back to work, the company moved over the easter weekend and we are now in the Valley, right behind the emporium, yep your got it great shops and great food and best of all great prices too!! NOT!! saw a lovely pair of shoes and thought wow there on sale turned them over and yep they were $550.00 on sale!! whot the??

Another Week Come and Gone

Well I am almost 3 weeks old in my new job now, and feeling alot more settle. WOW I cannot believe we are in March already, soon it will be christmas again - I best start shopping(lol). We just had a weekend in Port Macquarie (again) as it was our nices 1st birthday, we last saw her at christmas and what a difference those couple of months make at christmas she was hardly crawling and now she is running every where... So very cute! Every time we go down its such a long hearl and so nice to be home, but this time after spending a wonderful Sunday on the beach and headland I just wanted to stay there, and if I had my way I probably would have.
My darling middle child (Naomi) got her licence, how scarey I must say... for me not for her, she's loving it!! The freedom, The independence, It makes me feel old, i only have one more to go, it makes me want to cry and celebrate all at once.
just a quick post this week, but keep looking you never now whats around the corner
Chao

Yay for Me......

For those who know me, know that this week I began a new job, I forgot what a scarey place it is when your not in comfort zone, Monday I hated it and didn't want to go back, Tuesday I felt sick just going there on the train... I was the new kid on the block and I just wanted to go home, however Wednesday was a little better and come Friday I knew that, I am just going to love it there. It's amazing the process of it all and how quickly we forget what it's like, I went through the oh no what have I done, to the yep I made the right disscission, At the end of day it didn't really matter, because everything in life is a gamble, if we don't take chances and if we don't make mistakes than we never learn and we never grow, so yay for me I made it through my first week.

Today I poped into the wonderful Scrapbook princess, and all the girlies were there scrapping away, I was only poping in for a quick selection of goodies for my upcoming class's and a few hours later and trying to walk out with a few free extra goodies as well but Deb wouldn't share.(so unfair Deb!) How amazing was the work there today, awesome stuff, from cards to double layouts to Briohny stitching away on the machine to create some fabulous masterpice, and good laughs all round. For those that have never been to a crop day at the princess,you should really go along you will be amazed with the ideas floating around the room and you will have a great time with some pretty awesome girls, so mark the next one on your calender now.

Well I best go and attempt to scrap something for the upcoming calender otherwise Mel will be out with that whip again, and let me tell you it hurts........ lol

Thanks again for reading and until next time, I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful weekend and have a great week!!

The sun still comes up in the morning

One of the luckiest aspects of my job, is meeting some of the most fantastic people, two years ago when I statrted here I was fortunate enough to meet a lovely young women named Helen Johnson who was in one of the bridge groups who plays here at the club every Wednesday, and every Wednesday I grew to know and love her just that little bit more, she was such a vibrant, happy person with so many stories to share. At 97 she still lived on her own, played lawn bowles twice a week, visted the library and played bridge and you would not believe her age. Last year she turned 99 and her only son was planning her 100th birthday. Last week I learnt of her passing only the week prior. I was devasted to say the least, however was happy to hear it was quite quick. I believe her funeral was rather large and that her son spoke in great lenghth of her amazing life. The funeral was based on the celebraton and was bright and cheery. Whilst the sun still rises in the morning I would just like to say I miss you Helen, and you will always be rembered.

Can you see it

Yep I can see it, can you see it, have you looked closer, really really closer. Yes you got it, I have posted again. day 2, Im excited, yippee Im going strong now. However stay tuned for day 3 cause it will be even better!!!

However, I take a breath because I am going to get on a serious note.. today, after waking up and thinking OMG does it have to rain all the bloody time when Im not at work, can we just have one good sunny bright weekend. Well today I have been talking to a work collegue/friend as he was released out of hospital yesterday after having a brain bleed and a mild stroke, and will take a couple of months to recover and he is only in his early fourties, however whilst talking to him he was mostly telling me of the young man (25) who was in the bed next to him who was in a motorbike accident (not wearing a helmet) has 25 bleeds in the brain has lost his speach, however he still understands all that is said to him and cannot walk.

Wow really makes you sit up and notice everything around you, celebrate everyday, the sun is still shinning even when it is raining, and everyday is bright, look at what is around YOU and everything in you life.

Until later, enjoy the rest of your weekend and have a great Monday.... Thanks for looking.
