The blog name says it all..The good the bad and the whatevers

Good afternoon everyone....

It`s certainly been a busy day..Firstly it started off that darling son wasn`t feeling so good this morning....

After a couple of hours of being home there was this major recovery....

He got himself dressed and said "i`m ready to go to school now"...

My gosh I was shocked....I nearly ran to the car because I must admit having him home does drive me nuts, he gets bored so quickly...

Then we had some good news and bad news about Matt's mum...

Good news first as I much prefer the good....

The authorities that have been helping us find a placement in a nursing home for his mum have come up with the goods...

Just over three weeks waiting time is a miracle in itself....

It`s not the place where she wanted but reports from Matt`s brother who has inspected the place himself says it`s very nice and mum should be happy there....

It`s only 14 months old and the facilities are very modern....Tomorrow is move in day for her and she sounds quite excited about the prospect...Mush better there than in hospital she says...lol

We will go down on the weekend to take a look for ourselves and visit mum...Personally I can`t wait to see the facilities myself...

Now for the bad news....

One of those relatives who has been giving us all grief has flown out to Adelaide today to quote "sort things out" unquote.....

We had no choice unfortunately to let Mat ts mum know today of this persons intentions....We also forewarned the nursing staff to keep a close eye on Matt's mother just in case she does get too upset...

Some people are just born trouble makers and never know when enough is enough....

By the way Matt's mother was talking this morning I don`t think she`ll be taking much in the way of nonsense....

I`ll give her her due...

She can be one fiesty old bugger when she wants to be....lol

  2. Hi Mandy :)

    Love the cute image you have chosen to go with this post !! :)

    Oh can't kids be little rascals when it comes to feeling sick one moment, and picking up miraculously not long after ! LOL. Glad he was well enough to go to school. Kids and boredom aren't a good mix, as you would know ! ;-)

    That's good news about your MIL, hope she settles in easily. I'm sure she will :)
    Bad news about those trouble makers tho! I fail to understand why people have to behave so badly sometimes, and cause so many problems :(

    Love to you all xoxo

  4. Hey Mandy,
    Know it all Relatives are beeeeeeeep! ha ha anyway I am happy Matt's Mum has a place it will be so good for her to be settled.I love that shes feisty! No nonsense Nana!
    Your kid is a rarity...What a good kid! ooo the sickies I would chuck...utterly shameless..I actually avoided a certain Math class for a whole year in high school but on the last Tuesday of the year I finally couldn't dodge it.I was at school and I couldn't hide in the girls loo as was my other maneuver..so I sheepishly walked into the classroom, the teacher looked up puzzled and said,"Oh hello...new student?"....a second later the whole class burst out in a Chorus of ,"No shes not!! she just wags Tuesdays!!"
    ....Awkard...whoops posted on your blog!

  5. It is a wonder you didn't faint when he said he was well enough for school....

    Hope Matt's mum has settled into the nursing home now. Some people just like to make trouble and no one needs relatives like that.
