2 kids, animals and a crowd!

Sunday I looked after lauchy while Fleur did a class and we headed off to the local comunity show held at a farm. Gold coin donation, 2 kids, rides, lunch, lollies and a toy and i spent $30. now thats value.... Here are some pics from the weekend.

Blaine still not 100% was totally exhausted but had a great time.

School holidays have started and thanks to Mum for being able to look after Blaine for me, because as always, we are short staffed and sucker me gets stung with working. I am planning a long weekend this weekend, god knows I need it!!! Today has been a shit of a day for me!!! Blaine went to the holiday program for the 1st time. It was like a snatch and grab. Felt like he was whisped away within a second. I felt sick to the stomach and even had a cry. I worried the whole day and wondered if he was ok. He knew nobody and he seemed to be the youngest there. I hated sending him but he said he had a great time. they went to Warrigul to see WallE. He said he loved it so that makes me feel a little better. He is back there Thursday, as well as next tuesday and thursday as well. I think 2 days a week is plenty. All I want is to have my own home and be able to be home for Blaine.... Simple things yets so hard to come by. Well on the way to work this mooron was tail gating me, then almost side swiped me and then abused me as he flew by. He had his wife in the car with a new born baby and here he is more concerned about calling a fat bitch than worrying about the safety of his baby... What do you expect, the mother was mothing off as well. As you can imagine by the time I got to work id had enough. Long drawn out day, crappy wet weather and tired. We finally get home to find a letter on the door... I have no idea what it is about but all I can say at the moment that it isnt too plesent and i have no idea what its about. Life just gets better doesnt it. So after my sucky shity day, Im ready to crawl and the covers and hide from the world. So thats what im going to do. Hopefully tomorrow is a better 1. Night all and chat soon.

Just a Saturday in September

Exhausted!! is the word of the week in my life. I have a sick kiddo with a virus and lots of vomiting. I got to have a sleep in this morning to catch up and wouldnt you know it, I must have slept funny cos now I have a stiff neck..... lol... only me!!

Blaine is doing much better. He started his holidays a little earlier than most but the poor kid has done nothing but rest up and sleep. He went to a birthday party yesturday and was so excited to see his friends. Didnt eat a single thing and started to get a bit emotional at end end because he was so tired. He must of been exhausted too because we went grocery shopping on the way home and he slept in the trolley while I shopped. I got stopped so many times saying "oh how adorable" but I felt so guilty. He has been so good today. Even had breakfast and had a suprise for me.... 'close your eyes Mum' as he leads me to his room. All I could think of was MESS!! He had made his bed by him self and gave me a hug and said ... 'your very tired so I am going to clean the house today'. He is such a good boy even though I was up until 1am the night before doing the house work but at least the thought was there.

Only 34 sleeps until the retreat and isnt that coming around quickly. Most of it is all done, just waiting on replies now. Hopefully by October I have got them all back and I can start making up the show bags etc.... Hopefully our scrap sponser hurrys up and gets their stuff out so we can get a little more organised.

Did you know its only96 sleeps until Santa comes? Is everybody organised? I have done all my Neices presents, only have my nephew to do and Blaine. Lucky thing is I know what I am getting Blaine so just need to layby it so I can pay it off. Maybe thats a job I can do next week. Hardest thing for me is that his birthday is a few weeks after Christmas and what do I get him? He wants a party so I have to be organised before end of term (I normally am) so he can invite his school mates, and I know exactly what to do for his party.

Have you checked out the whats new section in the shop? I have plenty of new stuff in and more coming over the next few weeks. I plan to scrap this weekend and hopefully get s few things done. I am about to go to the LSS to grab a sheet of paper so I can try on Hettys knickers (as Sammi says) and give her trade mark technique a go. I will show you once its done.

Dont forget the sketch competition for September is still running. Here is my take on the sketch as well as a layout I did for the CC last weekend.

Blaine had his 1st disco the week before, such a spunk (biest mother of course). Here is a couple of pics...

Well I best be off. I want to grab a few things, so until next time, keep on chatting.....
