I hope everything goes well tomorrow Shell. Please let us know how he goes.
Rain, we have some to spare It's raining so hard ATM that I can't even hear myself think! We had food on the shelves for a whole day yesterday, now there's hardly anything left. Roads will hopefully be open this week.
meg - those photos are gorgeous!! Are you happy with them?
ETA:
vix - didn't see your sig before. Good luck with the 'russian roulette'!!!
Jodi - Yep they turned out really well, and Chrissy was just awesome.
DH had a shocker of a night at work. A lot of the ambos had to go home as their homes were under threat. Spent a lot of time treating people with smoke related injuries. Our house is filled with the smell of smoke and the sky is still a terrible colour. We had a good bit of rain though.
Jodi- Just wanted to say good luck starting back at work tomor, how many days will you be doing? The extra money will be very nice and helpful.
FIL op went well, just a matter now of waiting and seeing how tummy reacts, apparently can take the tummy 1-6 weeks to start contracting to push food thru so we'll see how it all goes but so far so good.
So weird to think all those floods up north and here all the terrible bush fires, send all that water down here to put them all out, very tragic all the lives and houses lost. Good friend of Dfs hasn't heard from her uncle and its not looking good, he lived in a town right near Kinglake so not best place to be.
I heard there is arsonists trying to relight the fires, should be shot.
DH is bracing for another difficult night at work tonight.
My very good friend who is on this forum and 12 weeks pregnant is in Beechworth. She is fine at the moment, but I am worried that she will push herself too far.
We were meant to be goingto Bright tomorrow to mow etc, (the holiday house) but we won't be going until we know it is safe.
Have been trying all morning to get on the Red Cross site and by phone to make a donation...can't get through on either. That is good news though, hope the cash donations take a little weight off the mind of those poor, poor fire victims. I cannot even comprehend what hell must be like.
My Dad is in South Gippsland but is fine. He knows what he is doing, my sister isn't working due to Jonee PS being closed. Mum is a nurse and work partime with the ambos so I dare say she has been working around the clock.
Well, I have two sick little boys today and I think I have their bug also. It is 22 degrees here and I am all clamy (sp) and soooooo very tired! Was just getting into bed at 11pm last night when the phone rang (my heart STOPPED thinking it was bad news0 and it was a friend from the UK calling about the fires. He has been watching it on Sky News and was horrified. Understandable>
hope everyone has a better day with the cool change, all the pregnant mummies and the CFA, RFS etc I ams o tired I don't think I am making sesne. Hope the kids fall asleep soon, I need some myself.
Shell - good news the operation went well for your FIL, sending lots of postive vibes to him for recovery from it. Has your DF's friend heard from her uncle...praying she has had good news.
How are all the VIC girls going - Maz, Nelle, Shell, Meg... - I hope no one was caught up in the fires. How devastating, I have just been watching a bit on TV - absolutely heartbreaking for all those poor people...I don't know what else to say it is a huge tragedy...
Vix - how is your household - recovering from the nasty bug yet???
Jodi - how is it being back at work, big change, I hope it goes well for you. How are the rains up your way. Crazy weather....
Okay, we are fine here, crazy but fine Think Rylee has been having nightmares/night terrors, has been waking up screaming but has her eyes closed and still seems to be asleep, poor little mite.
Okay, should go and get on with things.
Hugs
