ok its been a bit

Mum is doing great i am so happy in that department. They are enjoying living in a house again they spent the last ten years travelling Australia now they seem to be settled in.

With Dave well thats still happening.............

And the kids they are about to go on two weeks break next week. I hear you say yes i can talk to Karen well...........................

Put this way yes there is a possible chance you could but who knows just yet. Arghh cat is clawing me. isnt that the way.ok i got rid of the cat... food does it every time. Ok where was i.

The kids yes they are all well apart from the hayfever.. hehehehe i dont get it but there are 3 members in this household that does.. and Dave is one. Sorry no oh mum from me on that department. Just after the holidays Dale will getting two wisdom teeth remove. ouch. but i not going to say how much its going to hurt cos if i do ..... yes you'll know what will happening.


You notice i left me to last........

ok on with the news. you already know i do long hours. yes i can hear you all groan and saying what have you got yourself into........ they have manage to find more hours for me. I have some students almost finishing and other just starting.....I just dont know where these hours are coming from but i all I know is i am soooooooooooooooooooooooo tired by the end of the week. then i have to catch up on things around here. Thats why you havent been able to talk to me on the weekends. Spring is here and i have been working in the garden for a little bit. Oh yes over the past month or so i have had major back problems i seemed to have compressed some of my lower back disc. ouch that HURTS :( it seems to be getting better with heaps of visits to the chiro. and stretching that back out .......

However i found time to do some stitching yes on my lady and no you cant see what i have done just yet cos it looks like i havent done much. Anna its where the the skirt mets the base of the tree i have been filling in that area. Also i have been trying to teach dale how to air brush his models........ with what little time i have.

Ok i have to go now post on Janyes Attic a question cos there is something i want to do and i cant get onto another site to see the picture.

till next time be safe and do heaps of cross stitching

spring is here

Yeap. Spring is here and do i have a spring in my step ..............

Ok i should say yes but i have also say no cos if i bounce at the moment my back will say ouch ouch. Mucsle spasms is hurty hurt hurty hurts hurts.

With me life has been just moving along one day at a time. It seems at the moment all i do is work and work and then there is no time for me to play sob sob sob.....

I havent even to manage to talk to any of my friends its seems that i have vanished from this planet only in my free time haha do i manage to read all your blogs. I havent even been to any of my favourite cross stitch sites... :( .

OK i know you are all wondering what else has been happening.

MUM drum roll please..........

we will celebrate her yes 60th Birthday tomorrow. we had a Lunch time party for yesterday and she is looking great. Yes she has finished with radiation. I was told today after her appointment that she has been cleared from both chemo and radiation therapy. All she now has to do is see the specialist every couple of month for the next 3 to 5 yrs..... So it looks at this stage that she is through the hard part now its waiting to be cleared after 5yrs.

Now with Dave...... yes i hear the eyes rolling. Ok on the day Anna was leaving we had to see a specialist about his hands. Yes the specialist stated the work has caused the problems but dave's diabetes hasnt help. The hearing was today............................ :( IT STILL going on and on and on and on ok you get the hint. They have taken our specialist view over the work cover specialist view but (yes there is a but to all this) they want more information about the hole we dug for dave's party and yes appartly we dug the pool into the ground and hmmmmmmmmmmmm if i get the photos open from the the external harddrive i can show you the pool sits on the ground and not in the ground cos we knew that we couldnt do it ourselve we would have had to get in a bobcat to move the soil and we couldnt afford that at the time. And the best option and it was cheaper was to get soil brought in. and Dale and I move it.

so thats about it for the moment
