A drizzly kind of day

What can I say...It`s been a nothing sort of day because the weather hasn`t been the best for me to be able to get outside and do the gardening...It has rained for most of today and looks like it maybe like this for the next few days....Not that i`m complaining...Firstly we need the rain and secondly get`s me out of doing those chores...lol

Daniel decided he would take off and go Trick or Treating tonight without letting me know....Little bugga he is.....lol....He did come home with some chockies much to my delight...NOT!!!!...I`m trying to keep him off these sorts of things as they do tend to set him off in his mood swings....Looks like an early night for him....

On BB i wrote that our cat has been missing for 4 days ....He still isn`t home tonight so i`m not feeling too positive about his well being...Daniel keeps asking if he (being the cat) has come home....You see it`s Daniel`s cat...I bought him as a kitten for Daniel and they were very close....

Well hope you all had a lovely day and tomorrow is a better one again....

The week has started off well

This is a strawberry that I grew all on my own and best of all was I beat my son to it....lol...He is always getting out at my strawberries before I even have a chance to see how they`re going....Well today I got one on him and it tasted delicious...hahaha

We had some extremely good news tonight...Krystal got the job at Target and we are all so happy for her....None more so than me....It`ll boost back her confidence and I must say that this job is a darn better one than Hungry Jacks....At least she`ll be able to better herself if she wants too.....

Also I don`t know what has happened but my hubby has changed his tune as well....Not sure whether he has found this blog and he read how I felt but the turn around is amazing....For 3 days in a row he has been out of bed in the mornings and has stayed up all day.....He even went as far as going shopping with me today....I`m just dumb founded....I asked him why the sudden turn around with him being up and about and he said to me that he just has to get past with what`s going on with him otherwise he is going to wither away.....

Geez I`ve been telling him that for months....lol....Anyway it`s nice to have him back ....He will still be moving into his own place eventually as he still strongly believes that is the right thing for him to do....I`m ok with it!!!!!.....

So touch wood things are looking up for this family.....Touching lots of wood here as i type....lol....Hope everyone else`s day was a good one....We seem to be having alot of storms along the east coast......It`s been batten down the hatches.....Stay safe all..

Just one of those days

Innocent looking picture of a baby isn`t it.....Damn I wish that kids could stay that way...lol

My lot have been driving me nuts today and the weather hasn`t helped....

It`s been cold wet and windy here today and the boys have been at each other all day...

You know that niggling and taunting that goes on ....

Grrrr....

Then I find a lovely pile of dirty clothes waiting for me in the laundry this morning....

Teenage son thought he would clean out his room today and decided to bring out his weeks supply of dirty laundry....

Needless to say I wasn`t impressed as I honestly thought I had caught up....

Oh well if his school clothes don`t dry in time looks like he may be going to school in the nude tomorrow...lol

Daylight saving started today and I haven`t woken in the best of moods....

I`m still having difficulty in getting a good nights sleep and if my hubby moves i`m awake....

And when i`m awake I have to get up....

So out of bed this morning at 7:30 am

On a Sunday morning....

Not good I can assure you....

The kids aren`t too happy with me at the moment as i`m running the fridge, freezer and pantry down to bare minimum ...

Reason being that in 3 weeks time our Chrisco will be arriving...

I have ordered nearly $2000 worth of food

It may seem alot but paying it over the year I don`t miss the money....

So this time of year I buy just the essentials to get us through until it arrives....

Hence , makes for some very unhappy kids until of course Chrisco arrives...lol

Boys had a great day out

The kids had a great day out crabbing today

Well the boys did

They caught alot of crabs and couldn`t wait to get home and cook them

Mum of course ended up cleaning the mess...lol

Krystal ended up spending the day with her father

and he even came back afterwards and sat down with us to have a civil conversation

Now why can`t it be like that all the time...

I may have to take Krystal to the doctors tomorrow as it looks like she may have an infection in one of her eyes...The worst part is she has been using my eyeliner (a thing daughters do) lol and now my eye is starting to feel a little sore...

It seems blogspot may be getting an invasion by bigblog users....I`ve seen on terry`s post that lonz had made the move and now also Justice Joe is having a look around....Poor Bigblog may end up with no one left soon...lol

We have finally received some rain tonight....The front garden certainly needs it...The wind finally died down and I heard that there were a few trees that came down in places....

Best be off....Hope your weekend has been going well and Janelle hope the party goes well and not too many sore heads tomorrow...lol

A sleep in tomorrow is needed

Well It`s been a long day today....Sleeping in with my son last night maybe wasn`t such a good idea....I just wanted to get a good nights sleep and the little love gave up his bed for me and he slept on a mattress on the floor....But do you think I could sleep....NO!!!!....lol....

It looks like the boys maybe going crabbing tomorrow ....I`ll wait and see if it does happen or not....Krystal and I will be home doing absolutely nothing which sounds good to me as it`s going to be a warm one here....31 degrees....

Also daylight savings starts this weekend so i`m quite sure come Monday morning there are going to be a few grumpy people in this house including me...lol...But once we do get used to it things will be great....The kids like it as they can stay out longer without mum hasseling them to be home before dark.....My favourite rule especially with the older two...lol....

Hope you all have a great weekend.....I`m looking forward to just me and my girl tomorrow.....

I`m drowing here

Sorry everyone but this has been one of my down weeks.....Feeling like absolutely everything is getting on top of me....My husband refuses to get out of bed these days and doesn`t help me mentally or physically anymore....This has been going on for months and to be honest I feel like a single woman with four children...Not three....

I know he does have some bad days but (yes there is that but) he`s choosing not to help himself anymore.....I can`t do anymore ....I can`t summon up the strength to will him to help himself....

It seems life is one big burden to him but only us as a family....It seems when it comes to his mother or his girls from his first marriage he has no difficulty in getting out and about to do whatever with them but when it comes to me and the kids it`s a different story.....

He used to come shopping with me....Nothing....When it comes to the car I`m having to make sure everything is in running order....The kids he never does anything with them....And then there`s me....Having to do absolutely everything inside and out.....

I have sacrificed 10 years of my life to this man because i love him....I gave up a career that I loved.....If it wasn`t for my friends on msn who help me get through I think I would have gone mad by now....But then that`s another story .....I get twenty questions on whom I`m talking too....What are we talking about????..Blah Blah Blah....

It`s like hello aren`t I allowed to have a life.....Then there`s all the accusations ....I don`t need to go into detail but you know what I mean.....I feel like i`m in a prison serving a life sentence and there is no escape......

Sorry everyone ...You don`t need to comment on this blog...It just get`s it all out of my system....

A day I would rather forget

To be honest I don`t think I could have asked for a worse day....And it was supposed to be happy....

Today was Matt`s and my Wedding Anniversary...7 years gone by already.....But instead of a day of celebration it turned out to be miserable....

Firstly Matt was sick and bed ridden all day...

Then the weather was miserable.....I couldn`t get outside to do anything that I had planned...

And for the final blow.....

My sister rang me to tell me she has cancer....

OMG could it be any worse.....

I did go around and see her late this afternoon....She is in high spirits which is a good sign....So now they will operate to remove the cancer and while she is under they will insert into her bladder a bout of chemo....This is where the cancer has started to form.....She showed me a picture of it tonight when they did the ultra sound and it looks like a peice of coral growing....

Fascinating to look at but wanting it out of her body for good.....

I feel better now for seeing her and i`m positive that she will be ok....It`s been 6 months sice her last checkup as she has been having trouble with growths for quite sometime now so she is closely monitored....But boy in that 6 months it`s grown so quickly.....

I`ll keep you up to date on how her progress goes.....

Better get myself to bed.....

Today is a day I would rather forget and start a fresh tomorrow....

Goodnight all......
