 Good Morning Girls,HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DD17 Shellie!!  Medusa did you find out what was wrong with the dishwasher?I'm up early, couldn't sleep.The good news is I got my car back yesterday, the bad news is it was really expensive.  DD & I have haircuts booked today but not much else happening here atm.
I've got a few small things to do that I've been avoiding so I think I'll work on those today.Wishing you all a great day  |

Good Morning Lovely Ladies
We have survived Birthday week (well my diet has, lol, almost), time to get back to the plan. Thanks for all the birthday wishes sent our way.
DD17 had a nice birthday yesterday, got spoiled (the perks of being the youngest I guess), had a lovely dinner out at our favourite Pub. Then home for a movie and sleep over with her DBF. However, at about 2am I was woken to be told DBF Dad was picking her up as she was feeling unwell. After having trouble falling asleep ( I think the 'celebration meal was sitting a bit heavy) and then being woken, it was not a peaceful nights sleep.
Today the menfolk are golfing, DD's are out and about so I am heading to DMum's for an actual visit (not groceries or errands), although she has given me some errands to do on my way. And I'm taking her clean washing back and changing the sheets and picking up more washing while there. Monday is a carer day and although they are still going to shower her, they won't be doing the washing and bed as it's a public holiday.
Not much esle to report here. Time to get my 'Load a Day' on the line and do some quick morning routines before I head off. Wishing you a Super Saturday and a Wonderful Weekend ahead.

Good morning everyone,
Great to read of your progress and strength overcoming all sorts of challenges. I'm not 100% and have been in denial all week - now accepting that I'm feeling Blah! and will soldier on, but at an appropriate pace. Committing to seeing a medical practitioner if still Blah! after Wednesday next week. (Pretty sure it's low-grade viral so there's no point rushing to dr.)
Ta Da's
- DD's computer is sorted for school (re-installed OS, set up her as admin and deleted DH's user account)
- DS4 has done his 'homework' - prep teacher wrote a lovely welcome letter with a puzzle piece and his name to decorate - he was sooo excited!
- Coffee and panadol (element of self-care)
To Do
- Shower and dress to shoes (another attempt at self-care)
- Quick RRs, S&Ss, beat house into some sort of shape
- Progress jobs to get kids ready for school - cover & name books; name clothes (need to purchase clothing marker); name lunch boxes/drink bottles/snack boxes; pack bags for Day 1 (each has different instructions on what to bring day 1)
- Start errand list - drop off giveaways to charity; drop off give aways to friends; drop off amp to neighbour ...
- Start shopping list - computer case for DD; togs for DS9; swimming bag for DS4 …
- PUPA, RR, declutter!!!!!!!!!!!
Wishing you all a wonderful day!

OK - if anyone knows how to resize pictures when I insert them, it might be a good idea?! Sorry about the humungous 'Go Girls' - but it made me smile.

 Hi Everyone
Sorry the car was so expensive Elasti- they are necessary evils!! (so are computers!!) Hope you find some lovely non-expensive shoes for DD, Medusa. Shellie, I can’t believe your DMS carers not changing the bed etc on a public holiday! aren’t they there anyway? I think they need a new title as ‘carers' doesn’t seem to fit!! Have a nice visits with DM, hope she is doing well. Elizabeth- oh the joys of ‘back to school’ but it will be good to get everyone back into routine. I did put up those magazine pics. Did you see them? I think I did it Wednesday. They were huge too and I dont know how to make smaller. Your ‘Go Girls’ was great!!
Did nearly everything on my list yesterday. You get a lot more done with out a 'little person' around!
I got up today to find DH making more chili jam- green this time. DS came to finish off fan in our room so Im happy about that. It also looks as if he might of fixed the evaporative cooling as well. Ive been cooking up and bottling more tomatoes and making lunches etc and cleaning up. DD29 and her fam are coming for dinner tonight. DH will cook a couple of chickens on the spit and ill make a couple of salads. The only other thing i need to do is brush the DDog- maybe a bath? oh and prepare some food for a bbq tomorrow. We are going to Ocean Grove again and will stay the night as its 2 hours each way
Have a Great Long Weekend!! x x
