We are so so spoilt......

Look what we have right over the rd from us now.......yes water & plenty of it....Its amazing & heaps of fun going done there & mucking around...We are going to get a biscuit to put behind boat, they are awesome fun..

I remember when we brought this house so many ppl said you will never in this life time see water in that lake again, but if you did your house would be worth heaps, well we r so lucky to have the water & yep the real estate said whatever your house was valued at before there was water well now theres water add on a hundred thousand to your property.....Dont care much we aint going nowhere.....The serenity is to awesome..

Well back to work tomorrow, did have a great time off although i did do a few kms going to melb then ballarat then albury a cple times, was good to catch up with my bro & his family & my sister & her family...

Pauls still out of work & its just wait & see if he needs surgery still, he may not go back till feb even maybe march, but we are getting there slowly.

Anyway havent done any scrapping ummm ive really lost the mojo, maybe it will come back one day

Anyway thanks for stopping by

IT'S SOLD.............

yay l sold my bike, phew thank goodness l wasnt stuck with that 4 to long & we lost out on a cple of hundred bucks, but oh well...Now time to shop around & see whats going to suit me.....may have to save more money will just see whats around......gee l really would luv to finish pool & spa area of & put in sliding doors out to the front verandah.....ummmm thats very tempting to do that instead of a bike...

My new jobs going great.......luv it. we have been flat out, l cant believe it, its crazy..

Paul went to Canberra with a cpl of mates to watch the mx so he is back early hrs in the morn, we r off to either Shepp or Westfield shopping ctre, our phones are out of contract & we are getting the new i phone 4 but gee they r hard to get...so they are our two options, but since it will be me driving l think l will aim for Shepp...Home alone tonight & l recon l am not far out of bed.Havent done any scrapping for so long...

Got the hens night next Sat, so looking forward to going out with the girls....

Ummmm going to take me awhile to recover l can guarentee you..

Pauls shoulders still sore as sore, lm just hoping he hasnt put it back out, xray this week coming so hopefully we will find out whats going on..

3 more weekends till the wedding & the honeymoon............cant wait.

My girlfriends coming up from warragul next weekend & we r going to do a few hair trails, as l really have no idea lol.

Paul & l are heading of to Willowlake during the week with the ppl that are doing pics so we can do a mock wedding shoot, the garden is looking awesome & theres water in the lake behind the restaurant now, so more photo oppurtunities..

HEAPS HAPPENING......

Thought l would post some pics of the group that are heading of on their travels around Aussie, lucky lucky people, gee it was great working with these 4 @ Ski Centre....

Couple of pics of me with Gerry & chey & Tori.....Gerry & Tori came down 4 the weekend from Casterton to watch her bro race his boat @ nillahcootie & a cple of girls that rode out asked if l wanted to ride but l had chey who wanted to see Tori so we drove instead plus l aint confident on bike.We spent the whole day out there, it was a good day...

Well on the job front l am no longer at Tomota farm as 1st week in l got a call of Alpine Civil where l had previously applied for a job few months back to ask if ld like a full time receptionist/admin job.....well this lil chick clicked her heels & said yipppppeee....I started last monday & its awesome....l look after all the garden supplies side of it & all the maintenance on the civil side, Somebody answered my prayers....Ummm l dont get to keep my winter job though as they want me all year around, but thats ok cause money is good....May go back & do weekends over winter but will just see if we need or want anything & need to save for it then l will do weekends...

On a downer my other half dislocated his shoulder last week & we spent the arvo in the hospital.....4 attempts later & basically knocking him out to get it back in......he is out of work anywhere from 3 weeks till next Jan it depends on the healing of it & wont no anything till next lot of xrays...lucky we have disability insurances for car & hm, but he will go stir crazy sitting hm......l hope he is not in a sling 4 wedding as we only have 4 weeks till the big day then we are of on our honeymoon...that may be a bit limited as to what we can do....oh well will just wait & see.

Still looking forward to it all the same...

Anyway best go & think of tea & l am going to attempt some scrapping after that.

Cheers

Going to see my bro in hosy over the easter period so we might have a melb stay over.......Visited him over he weekend so that was good, think it may become nearly a weekend ritual..He goes for his back surgery today...praying that all goes well, he is 1 lucky boy.

Haven't scrapped for ages just cannot get my head around it,ummm havent even done my ATC's or Kaths challenge with her pack..(sorry Kath dont no even if l will get it done)..

Looking at getting a bigger bike & possibly may have someone looking at mine so that will be good & Pauls got someone looking at his today so fingers crossed they sell. l wont buy another bike now until abit before next summer though....got a few prices of the harley shop for a new beaut bike so weighing up weather get a newy or a second hand...guess l have to wait to see what cash l have when the time comes...

Wedding plans are coming along good & really really wanted to do a overseas beach wedding lil expensive but to take us all there so weve decided well cut costs on the wedding & shout ourselves away on a honeymoon..(Hopefully)..

Done these 2 LO's at home but they were 4 Paulys class she done at Kaths....

My bro thats in the middle of Rob & l had a motorbike accident on Saturday night broke his hip & leg in 3 places & had artery bleed that took surgeons 5 hours to fix...in total he was in surgery for 12 hours so they thought the best place was in a induced coma.............ummmm not a nice thing from our point of view seeing a family member lying there pretty lifeless....u r talking to him & he has no idea u r there...but from a medical point of view it was the best thing for him.....anyway he woke from that today....l tell u what it was the longest 5 days of my life but todays the best day & its the best thing u could wish for....Sure hits home & it just makes me tell my family,partner & friends that l luv them even more...Best birthday pressy is that he came out of it all good....

Work has been so good with me the last few days so that helps you cope with things a little better & Paul & the kids have been marvellous especially Dillon...he was my rock when we went down to the hospital....

Robs going real well with his hip replacement.....he will be running before the other brother now..

Another LO

Im not 2 overly impressed with this Lo....l had it all in my head what to do but didnt work out...l really hate that when that happens & l usually go right of scrapping 4 awhile when l feel like that...hope it doesnt happen this time..

Went over to see My big bro in hospital yesterday, he seems to be doing real good so l hope that continues.

Of to melbourne this arvo as Cheys getting her braces of....woohhhooooo so exciting.

We've changed our swimming pool from chlorine to salt water so thats a bonus & got all the salt water filter system for nothing so thats even better, the one we got is worth around $1500...Not as much mucking around with salt water....Need nice days now so we can swim...Although the rain has been nice..

Getting all excited about my 40th party, still havent heard from heaps of ppl so no idea what to do there....Oh well..Perhaps not cater for them may be the go.....

Dillon got his xray results back on Thurs & yes he broke his collar bone....thank goodness he didnt need to get it pinned or surgically fixed, they just slung it up after 2 & a half weeks so lm hoping its ok...still got 4 -6 weeks of work...he is not happy...

Anyway best go & thanks for stopping by...
