Hi everyone!
Rainy in Melbourne today, and I'm having trouble staying awake - daylight saving always throws everything out of whack ...
Heidi, hope you haven't done anything drastic! Sending good thoughts your way. (((Hugs!)))

Handle every Stressful situation like a dog.
If you can't eat it or play with it, Pee on it and walk away.

This came at the end of an Email. About how I feel at the moment!

And by the way have MY computer working again!

Though I have to say that I've had some very nice stuffed mushrooms ...

Heidi, take care. Hope you have not done too much damage. Nice to see you Judy. You dropped in while my computer was "taking it's time". I have been trying to get rid of stuff and will need to defrag.

Hi June, hope you're feeling happier/less stressed very soon ...

...what just went on there...

June, email Gath, re Sharon's Birthday, he could remove it I am pretty sure.

Morning everyone

Heidi.. you must take care with yourself.. slipping/falling is not good

OS is Overseas

I had a lovely chat with June last evening on Skype..
not long after that skyped with the Melbournian Son.. his Oma really enjoyed the conversation with him.

Speaking of Oma.. must rock and roll here, make sure she is out of the Shower, the taxi (me) is leaving in 1/2 hour.. Dr appt awaits..

Later Aligaters ♥

Sitting here laughing about being on June's computer. How long ago was I there? It's a very long time ago... Sorry I forgot to log out June.

I am keeping Gath as a last resort. Would like to make a comment at the top of her page and I know I can get in if I use her computer. Her computer is turned on and when I finally got mine up and running this morning a little sign with popped up to say "Sharon D has just signed in". Brought a few tears to the eyes.

It was not my computer Suzy, it was Ken's!!!

June ♥

If you have any dramas re the password, just click on the 'forgot password' link, it gets sent to the email addy that is registered...have had to do it a few times!

Gail, I have to be on Sharon's computer to do that as it sends it back to her Email address and I cannot access that from my computer.
Just frustrating as I thought it was something that was organised.

Hi all. Just stopping in to say goodnight.
Heidi, I have a cousin who is a chiropractor in California. I can always call her for advice. Right now his neck seems to be getting better. I think some of it was stress related. We caught him in a lie about some of his school work and it seems to have gotten better once the truth was out.

Mitchell played in his first high school baseball game. He had one at bat, struck out, and played one inning in the outfield. He will get better the more he plays.

See you all tomorrow.

Very stressed out mummy here.

I'm not allowed to help Alie clean her room. Even trying will start screams of protest that can be heard in the next town.

I decided that while she was away I would get in there and do it, she can scream all she wants when she gets home but it will be too late because it will be done.

Apart from the rubbish that I knew was there I found several things that belonged to Don and I and she had decided she wanted them more than we need them.

My camera is missing. I think she might have taken it with her.

Three photos are missing from the wall. She told me she took them into her room because she hadn't seen them for so long she wanted a better look. I was immediately suspicious (obviously) but just asked her to give them back to me. She didn't and they are nowhere to be found in her room. I really hope she hasn't thrown them away.

Hi all. I got home from my Cattlemen's meeting to discover that the Grass-hoppers are still in Oz, and won't be here tomorrow. They're having an awful time with everything going wrong. Poor things.

What is going on with Alie? Stealing from you is not a good thing. You need to put your foot down, Suzy. No more chauffeuring her until she stops stealing. She needs to lose privileges when you lose things.

Good night friends. I am off to bed. Can't get enough sleep this week, actually since my procedures. anesthesia hangover? I will fall asleep in my chair, or decide to lie down for a short nap, and wake up hours later. Obviously not getting much ffuts done that way. but as long as I keep Al fed and medicated, the rest can be done later.

I was really confused, Suzy was on, it ws her icon, but the words said it was June? Strange. anyhow, glad June is back on her computer and not messing with my mind any more.

Why did I know what OS meant? Was gonna tell ya, but others already had.

Heidi, I do hope your knee recovers soon from the fall. No damage to the back I hope??

Falling asleep here, can't remember anything else. I did read and thought about each of you Hugs to each of you with extras. Till tomorrow.

No serious injury to the knee or back. The knee is a bit bruised, and that's all. I just hate falling.

Heidi, I think of it more as not asking first. There is a difference, though only a small one. If it turns out she has thrown the photos away she will be told that is stealing though. She will also be paying me for them, though I'd much rather have the photos.

MizT, I like your philosophy! It's not like the fairies are going to come in and do it for you so it will all be waiting for you when you've recovered from the anaesthesia.

Heidi, glad it's only bruises. That must be a record for you.

Tami, with Mitchell's work load a lie about his school work is perhaps not unexpected, though I'm glad he felt bad until he was found out. A good sign for the future. Maybe next time he will ask for help rather than get caught out.

Heidi, to make yourself feel better about falling a lot I'll tell you about one of my falls from a few months ago. I was trying to get something from the end of my craftroom but there was a chair in the way. Rather than move it I tried to reach past and around it. It didn't work and I ended up stretched and spread in ways the body is not meant to go! I ached for days afterwards!!

Okay, third load in the machine finished - I'm washing even though it has been raining and looks like it will again because the pile outside Alie's bedroom door is so high!

Well, there will be no comments for page 239 tonight. I was about to copy and submit - when our computer shut down. Now it's past midnight, so I'm not even going to rewrite it.

It's good to see Nola back, though computer virus isn't good.

Good that Mitchell's scoliosis is mild and Tami got him to the doctor to be checked!

June signed Suzy out so that she could again be June!

So sorry Heidi slipped, fell and injured her knee! Grasshoppers may not be coming today.

Sending {{{{{HUGS}}}}}, positive thoughts, prayers and for everyone!

Hi everyone.
Suzi, how old is your daughter whose room you cleaned up?

15 Viv, old enough to know better..

Just thought I would have a little lie down on the bed and read my library book and of course the phone rings. All part of the job when you sell Avon though and it was another order.
Raining again here too.

Oh okay Suzy, thanks.
As I said I do not bother with Ethan's room anymore.
No more washing at midnight thank heavens as he has a job now with the council, parks and gardens.
Still washing though but not like the fish and chip shop clothing.
He has been a right so and so now for quite some time to me.
As I said I reached the point of having had enough. I certainly have brought him up better than he is behaving.

Maybe its the age, I don't know but I have to say I am glad I only have one child.
That is enough to put up with as well as the hubby.

Dana keeps telling me about all of these great deals she's getting on baby stuff and what a good shopper she is. I saved this much on a bassinette and a cot... I just tell her we didn't buy a bassinette. Why not? Because we didn't need one and we didn't have the money. Your baby would be better off if you put that money in the bank than having a bassinette she will grow out of in no time at all.

I think it is a godsend that I am going to Sydney for the neurosurgeons appt. on my own.
It is only 4 days away but I am so looking forward to it.

Dana is not living with you is she Suzi? How old is she?.I missed out on a lot of what has been happening here when I was away from the site.

Viv, she's 18, not living at home, on benefits. No job or own place to live...

Morning all. Coffee is ready. Help yourself.

Suzy, Mitchell can do the work, he was just lazy. I have a conference with his teachers tomorrow morning so hopefully will have more details from them.

Heidi, glad your knee is not bad and you did not injure your back.

Viv, let me know when you figure out what to do with Ethan. I am getting the feeling I will be getting some problems from Mitchell soon.

Good morning June, Cyn, Rolanda, Mama, Tricia, Judy, Nola, Vicki, Julie and anyone else I may have forgotten.

Suzy, I had to pick up Laura otherwise I would have phone to give you a bit of a pick-me-up.
The Mothers on this site with teenagers, just think of me in about 10 years. Dealing with a teenage girl and I will be nearly eighty. A bit frightening!!!!!
Bad enough dealing with a 45 year old who rings to ask when we will be back from OS(you all know what that means now) as she will be away marking HSC papers and will need us (Mum) to stay at her place to feed the animals! It was almost an order!!!

June, somehow I think you will have the energy to deal with Laura. You are an amazing grandma and she is blessed to have you in her life.
