No phuket for me either - I personally want to see aus and for my girls to see aus before i start OS, and couldnt justify the money either, got other stuff to spend it on......
Staring with our car really- i cant remember if i told you all but on boxing day we sent to the shops and then came out to find our car all smashed up, the whole back of the car is useless (our station wagon) and has buckled and we cant open the tail gate! The person didnt leave any info and nobody saw anything as it typical! There is about $5k damage! OUr insurance excess is $1000 so as soon as i have that sitting there i will be fixing my car up and sellin it!
So i started school yesterday too ,adn i was ****e bored! I even stopped the class room rambling at one stage to point out that i was there to learn about nursing and not there to hear all about everyones issues at their nursing homes they work at! I got applause for saying it though so obviously i wasnt the only one getting frustrated! our teacher just wanted to talk about the good old days and then send us home to do it all! NOT ON! I definately havent paid just over $2000 to teach myself!
We have a different teacher tomorrow so hopefully they are able to keep on track!
I am hoping to get my boss's attention for 5 mins today and quit my job! There are soo many reasons for me to quit that i dont know where to start or what to say to her.... I may end up calling her tomorrow and doing it if i cant catch her attention today

Cindy I hope your classes tomorrow are better. I have really enjoyed class so far, although we are doing diff subject and not so many PCAs in our class.
Krisite I am sure Ethan will sort out his times. I agree would be nice to get Louis and Dylan organised before Ethan got up and I beleive in the NEVER WAKE A SLEEPING BABY as they always turn feral if you do. Glad Louis enjoyed Kinder also.
So today was good at school also. I am having probs however with AF. I have been spotting on and off for a month now. Today I thought she was finally here however it stopped again. Its concerning me so I have taken a sickie tomorrow to see doc about it. I am on the mini pill so stupid question.... should I be getting AF? as there are no sugar pills I thought I wouldnt?
Jordan fell asleep on couch tonight at 5 eating watermelon so I hope he doesnt wake up too early. he will be out for the night. Liam has been pulling himself up on the coffee table and putting his hands in my dinner LOL he is SO cute.
I have decided to stop playgroup until next year. I think might be too much for Jordan to go playgroup in morning and kinder in afternoon. Also Liam sleeps at playgroup time normally and he is the one I want to mainly go for. Once he goes to 1 sleep a day I might look at re enrolling. This will free up my tuesday mornings also.
off to watch some tele i think night all

Tracey, I had lots of spotting on the mini pill but was when AF had returned, but mine was caused because I was taking it at differnt timee. I found I really had to have it within 2-3 hours of the same time each day.
Nikki I'd love to go but Im supposedly goung to Phuket next october (2010) for my brothers wedding and Im finding it hard enough to getn eil to agree to go to that, and save up for it.
Cindy that sux about your car :( Similar thing happened to my old car, someone side swiped it and wrecked the front side panel, half a building site were on lunch directly opposite but no one saw anything...was going to require 2 panels to be replaced and 4 resprayed to fix...luckyily we were saving up to get it done whne someone wrote it off so we got a new one (well, neil got a broken foot though...not that lucky :( )
-
Rach thanks, well it appears that AF is back now. still have to go to docs though as took the day off work so need certificate. Need to get stuff for Jordans kinder anyway, asthma action plan and i want to ask about immunisations for me.
-
I have my calmbirth course this weekend. Its Narre Warren - I think its near you Cindy - Maramba drive?
It sounds awesome Im really looking forward to going, neil is less enthusiastic but at least he will be there for one of the days.
-
Well well well, where are you doing the course? I am pretty much off maramba! What a travel for you! is it full days? will you havea chance to catch up??
Well school finished early today which is great i feel like i have learnt stuff today
-
Its at a private house. 10-4 but am staying over night in narre.
We're going with another couple, someone from BB so not sure how much time will have but possible.
Oh that reminds me I need to talk to neil about how I will get home - he is going home after the first day cos he has a gig on saturday night, and so will be too wrecked to come on Sunday.
-
CIndy glad you enjoyed your 2nd day of school its nice to feel like you have accomplished and learned something
Rach calm birth class sounds interesting. I would love to hear all about it
Well Liam is now standing up and is determined to get moving. Its freaking me out. Jordan has been good. He is looking forward to kinder again next week. Enjoying a quiet sunday before a long day at work tomorrow.
hope you all enjoying the weekend

-
ok ive recieved news that he is ok,smoke inhalation,aggravated due to his cancer.Lilly his wife has somewhere to stay tonight.

Hi!
Haven't been getting posts....again!
Nikki - Glad your dads ok..how sad he lost his house - the main thing is he still has his life though!!
I'm feeling a bit bleurgh at the moment...I think with all the sad news on the fires and just being super tired and feeling a bit rundown...I'm also feeling super grateful though - I have my house and my family!! So not anything to complain about as such..
We had my Dads wedding on Saturday...It was the most eerie drive out ot Yarra Junction - the sky was the most bizarre colour and there was smoke everywhere - Heading over towards Marysville it looked like an atomic bomb had gone off - smoke so high up in the sky. The heat was so full on up there and my sister had embers landing around her house although they weren't hot as such...We decided not to take Ethan as it was an outdoor wedding so mum watched him at my sisters. The boys did really well considering it was 45 when we got there! We ended up having a bit of rain which was black from the ash in the sky. So needless to say the boys got filthy. It was a nice evening though. Mum kept calling cos Ethan was crying though and then I had to take the boys back and feed him...Louis never went to sleep and played with his cousin until 11pm though! I had to drive home to cranbourne with Michael and the boys asleep in the car and I was sooo tired. Got home at 12am though and luckily the boys all went straight back to sleep and Ethan slept through until 6.30am! (from an 8pm feed)
Not sure if I'm going to make it out this weekend...I'll have to see...we're budgeting like crazy at the moment so Geelong adventure park is probably out of the question...Trace - Not sure about heading out for your b'day either...we had already made plans for valentines day...MIchael and I are in desperate need of some time together...(if the baby lets us!) I sound a bit anti-social really...
Cindy - Sorry to hear about your car...glad your course is going well...Did you end up quitting work?
Trace - Fair call on the playgroup..Wow at Liam standing up! What a clever boy! With af - it may have something to do with the pill..I've had 2 periods in the last 3 weeks...I can say it's not helping my mood or energy levels...So over it! I never had Af after having the first 2 boys and now I'm getting it ALL the time...very strange...although I must say I'm fairly erratic in taking it...Lucky there's not much happening in the bedroom to worry about - LOL!
Rachael - Have a good time at your course on the weekend!
Ok...must go and get some sleep...only just got Ethan to sleep and I'm BUGGERED! Big day tomorrow taking the boys swimming...well Louis is going swimming and the other two into creche...
Hope you're all well...
-
Oh Nikki - I didnt see this til now, I got you SMS but was half asleep when I read it.
Im glad that he is OK but its just awful about his house :(
We may come on Sunday I will talk to Neil about it tonight.
Alex - FYI - 4yo kinder applications are now up on the council website - it says they open in Feb for 2010. There are supposedly open days to go to but they are not liseted - I will ask as one of mums friends is a kinder teacher locally.
They allocate places based on birthdate though, so no rush - Im kind of glad, some councile you have to book in from 2years old!
Kristie glad the wedding was OK, sounds like it was a bit scary/eerie though with all that was going on.
Calmbirth course was really good. I think even Neil got someting out of it. Maybe.
Other than that a prettysomber weekend. We have family or friends in bendigo, boolara, drouin, traralgon, myrtleford and yarram, all of whom are ok but all live seen or listened to when not at calmbirth was fires coverage.
My team leader at work got evacuated yesterday, and my bosses mums place is under threat but she wont leave.

hi ladies
well i got huge suprise yesterday. Jamie bought the family tickets to phuket in niv for my bday wow!!! the even better thing is thar nikki and family and alex and family are coming also. we got awesome deal tickets free only had to pay luggage and taxes. I will miss 3 days of school but hopefully should be ok
Jordan had 1st day kinder alone and he was not bothered at all so pleased jami has taken him today.
Kristie i hope you and michael get some time alone for valentines, will be nice. sounds like you need some time without boys.
rach hope your friends in fire area are ok.
take care

Hi!
Tracey - How exciting!!! Glad Jordan did well at Kinder!
Rachael - I got the 4yo kinder application at Ethans 2 week check up!! Crazy!!! Glad the course went well!! Hope all your friends are ok!
My friend Bean dropped in this morning with photos and stuff to leave out our house. She lives in Gembrook and the fires are nearby...hopefully they are under control before they reach her house! She lives in 15 acres of thick scrub so chances of her house surviving would be pretty slim if it reaches her.
We're cut off from Michaels mum and dad at the moment but the fires aren't close to them so thats ok at the moment...They are more in a paddock but have bush around them so they should be pretty safe even if a fire approaches though...
Well, I've had Ethan sleep through 3 days out of the last 5 so can't complain too much!! Once he's a sleep at night he's good other than maybe 1 feed! Had Louis crawl into bed last night though at about midnight - I think the boys really sense somethings going on - they haven't said anything but we've had the news on a bit which we don't normally do...I won't be putting it on again now when they're awake though and we'll avoid talking about it too much. Even Dylan woke up heaps and heaps last night as well...Michael didn't get home until nearly 2am so I'm buggered this morning having to deal with the kids all night - I never sleep well when Louis or Dylan is in the bed either...oh well..he's on baby duty tonight!!
Dylan and Ethan went into creche yesterday while I took Louis swimming - They did really well and it was so nice to have one on one time with Louis in the pool - he did really well!! I think a couple more lessons and he'll be right back into the swing of things!
Well, I better get organised - Louis has kinder today - his first day on his own - just an hour! I'm sure he'll be fine!
-
Happy Birthday Tracey!
Hope you have a good one :)
-
Happy Birthday Tracey!!! Hope you got spoilt!

I hope you had a fab day tracey!!
