So what's been happening?

The girls had their grommets in 2 weeks ago and poor little Mika had to have her adenoids removed again! We signed the consent forms at an appointment but the chances were less than 1:100 and thought she was OK, (no more heavy breathing and sleep apnea), but alas not. Ian and i new something was up when she was in surgery for so long. Anyways it's all done now and Tamika's hearing is fantastic and very noticeably better.

Jared's soccer is still heaps of fun and yesterday we handed back the weekly trophy for player of the week. Jarry was so proud, as all the team are when they get their week. He certainly has his good and bad days though, it's frustrating when he has a game and he's off in la la land. So new rules include no sleepovers away on Friday nights and sausage sanga or drink if he puts in 100% effort after the game. It's not about winning or scoring the goals, it's about how hard he tries.

As for me, well I'm fine and well, but not so sure about all this work. I love my job, the actual work isn't the issue and i am now managing to keep up at home but that's where it all ends. There is no me time, or just spare time. I haven't organised anything socially since i started doing the 5 shifts so my friends and family have been neglected, i scrape to keep up on the Internet and my emails and have even chosen online shopping for Jarry's birthday as i just don't get to the shops without him.

But how do i go back in pay when we are just getting things together again financially. It's a no win situation, guess I'll just have to go harder and make the social thing happen (if i can do Tahlia's party after a day of work i can do anything). Just having a whinge.......

On the good side of that, Ian is being super dad and really making the most of his career change for better hours. The kids really do have a great family life, even if it is Dad or Me and not us all together.

Kind of makes maternity leave tempting again, NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!lol


Thought i needed a shake up on my blog, hopefully i can better again at keeping it updated. Have heaps of photos to share and have just noticed how old my slide pics are now, so promise to update that too very soon.

LOVE GUNS AND ROSES, and thought this would be a nice song to add.
