Hiya,

thanks everyone for all of your congrats and well-wishes on the job and moving to Kangaroo Island. It's very exciting, but it won't be forever so it's just another experience for us and we aim to come back up to be with family again after not too long . As much as I love it up here, in the middle of the smashing rain, broken ferry cables which left jazz and I stranded for oh gawd, about 8 hours onthe wrong side of the river the other day, (these feckin mossies, sandflies and stifling heat), it's a great time to set our sights on such a totally different climate..plus there's seals and penguins...I'm there!

DH is away at the moment (suffering terrible homesickness for his girls), but he had to give a presentation in Sacramento - the Canberra of the U.S I think When he gets home next week, we pack up, clean up and take off. we are taking a week to travel down by car with the pups..yay...I love a road trip!

Janie, sounds like the trip was everything your lovely man wanted you to have after all you've been through. So glad you all had a great time.

Oh Smithy, what sweet relief for you both. i have been checking out your pics again...so sweet and your older girls are just lovely. you have a really beautiful family. you must still be pinching yourself hey??

grub, i can't remember what you wrote hunny, but i remember thinking (as usual), "me too", Just don't ask what, Iswear i never lost my brain while pg but i am making up for it now,

while jazz is in my arms, can't keep going with persies, so back to everyone's fave subject...moi. I can't even reach the icons cos jazzy's fat head is weighing me down.

we had a therapy session yesterday and it was fun! when i get dpwn south though, i think i will do the therapy via internet out reach. someone asked if it will be easier to get to appointments down there...nup! 45 mons by ferry, then hour and a half t Adelaide and I am no city driver, I'm a country hick. Cairns and townsville are more my style for big city driving and with andy working, I won't be able to get him to drive me so me thinks, stay home and play when I can and just go to the big appointments with Andy when I can for all the cochlear stuff.

Anywho, best go and get the little tike to bed and off my arm....awww, she is so lovely. Ni night from Jazzy.xoxoxo
