Maz - huge happy birthday to you, what a beautiful family you have, great you are having such a lovely day!
Shell & Meg - you poor things, it is so hard isn't it being pregnant and running around after a little one, I really sympathise with you!! Meg, you sound like things are just around the corner, sometimes you get diarahear (sp) etc just before you go into labour as your body is cleaning itself out.... hugs
Not much else to report here, hope the girls in Qld are all okay.
okay better get back to life things Packed to the Rafters is back on tonight, hope I get to see it....

I sure hope Jodi is ok but we are fine here for now, flooding rapidly but ok. We live just a little ways out of town on the Bruce Highway soooooo its a bit dicey as to whether we'll get cut off or not but I had to run into town for some groceries and one whole side of the highway is shutdown due to the water being mtr's about the road and its very near overtaking the only open side of the road Ry is on leave til further notice too. The biggest shopping centre we had is closed and the one I went to, had minimal parking because the whole undergound carpark was ceiling high with water. So crazy, Ive never seen anything like it!
rain rain go away come again another day I'm so sick and tired of the rain! I bet you are too Anna. The roads are closed between Townsville and Cairns so the trucks can't get through. Not too many groceries left in the supermarket. I'll be going grocery shopping tomorrow, and I think it'll be my cheapest grocery bill yet.
Some of Heath's family live in Ingham where the floods are really bad. They're pretty much stuck inside their house for the moment.
Well I've had a really bad day and I have a shocking headache to go with it. I'm hoping some good news will come out of it all tomorrow morning.
I haven't organised anything for dinner either. I'm just not in the mood today.
Maz - hope you had a great day today.
meg - take care of yourself. Hopefully bub stays put for a few more weeks yet.
shell - it's hard work having a toddler and being pregnant isn't it. Not long for you to go. Have you got everything ready?
laurin - woohoo, I love Packed to the Rafters I'm hanging out for that and All Saints to start tonight.
Well we've had bad news about my FIL. Remember he was diagnosed with stomach cancer about 2 years ago now and was doing well over that time the chemo shrunk the tumors he was feeling good etc. Then they found new tumors which they treated and shrunk. Now they've found alot. Lately he'd had trouble eating and they put stents in to help the food get thru but when they were looking around in there there was just heaps of tumors. So now his options are forget all treatment and just live what time he has however long that is or have his stomach removed which won't cure but can prolong life but at same time its not much quality of life not being able to eat/ drink and have to feed via a tube. So big choice there to be made.
What saddens me most tho is how much Ash will miss him, cause she really adores him, as you know kids can't hide who they favour and he is right up there and he adores her just as much so makes me sad to think about when he is gone or when is gets to end stage it won't be the 'papa' she knows ifykwim.
oh no shell, I am so sorry to hear that. I know what you mean, Nina absolutely adores my grandad, but he is slowly dying. He has miniture strokes multiple times a day and dr's have said one of these days it'll kill him.
Has he made a decision on what to do yet? It would be such a hard decision to make.
I have to share this story -
Last night J was waving a flag around (my fault as I gave it to him) and he accidentally stabbed me in the nose with the stick. It really hurt and my eyes started watering. He put the flag down, came over to me, kissed me on the nose and then said to me "all better." Hmm... I wonder who he learnt that from?
Also what was really good was this morning he was screaming, and I gave him a stern look, and then he said to me "sorry mummy." So he is slowly, slowly learning.
hugs
