Is nobody going to turn the page?

Yes CynB, you turned the page!
Thanks for all the birthday wishes for Laura. I will tell Sharon to show them all to her tomorrow. (Sharon has a meeting tonight and Laura will be in bed when she gets home)
Laura took cup cakes for all the children at daycare and celebrated her birthday there. We are going over tomorrow night and will have take away Chinese and give her her presents then.

We have got her a small fish tank, three small gold fish. I have bits and pieces everywhere trying to age some water etc and then we have to take it all in the car (20 minutes) without getting water everywhere. The fish are swimming around in a very large glass jar at the moment.

Heidi, get well quick. I hope IH takes you to the Doctor. Hope everything is well with you now Vici. Good news about your friend Brenda. My son is the spender in our family. The girls are very wise with their money.
Good luck with all the painting Stella. I guess you will need to get it done before winter comes.

Hi June - having a smile about the fish, tank and water and getting them to Laura without spillage. Good luck.
Yeah, I know I turned the page and while I don't actively look to do it any more, when it's there for the taking with nobody around, why not? Couldn't resist.

Hello my lovely friends.
June please send my birthday wishes to Laura too, hopefully will have my supporting membership back tomorrow. Laura
Good to see you around Nola.
Good luck with the fish June!

Good morning all! A terrible news story just came on the tv and I forgot what I was going to say.

Heidi, try apple cider vinegar. It should work for your throat and it would have helped with your stomach.

Brenda, great news about your friend! Have a nice visit.

Bean, please send me the link to your blog. I meant to ask you about it before.

June, good luck transporting the fish bowl! That's a cute present! I'm sure she will love it!

Oh yeaH Ditto about the blog thingy Bean.

SNAP!!
haha...oh Broni...I was already hitting send to you before I refreshed the page!!!

Gail I have had a quiet day... haven't done a single thing that I should of!!!
Have learnt a lot about blogging tho which has been very difficult with such a dicey internet connection! next week I should be back in form!

June... as you well know...cling wrap is wonderful stuff!! Will help keep the fish and the water in the tank for the drive over. I hope Laura has a wonderful birthday... as I am sure she will.

♪♪ where have all the people gone....♪♪
Goodnight folks

...long time passing...

Night all

Just here for a quick good morning. I only have a few vacation days left. I had a list of things to do over the summer and have not accomplished most of them. I wanted to order the invitations and have them all addressed and ready to mail, I ordered them yesterday. I still have not even looked at photographers or dj's. I guess I will be busy on the weekends. Or make my mom do it for me

Four happy birthdays and four cakes for Laura. I hope you have a wonderful birthday. Enjoy your cake and all your presents.

Sweet little Laura.

I am writing without reading, cause I am at the library and only have a limited time here. On tuesday, I took Al to th train for a week's business trip, and when I returned, I did not have internet service, on either of our computers. Al has not been able to walk me through a repair yet, so I may be offline till he gets home, NEXT tuesday. I just wanted to let you all know, I am alove and well,

I have got a lot of ffuts done, of the four letter kinjd, amazing how much more time ther is in the day with no husband and no computer either hehehe.

I hope all is well with everyone, and will get back online when I can.

Hello there everyone.
Tami..enjoy the last few days of school hols.I do the same as you...have plans on accomplishing lots and hardly get any of it done.
MizT..bet you have withdrawal symptoms not having a computer.4 days until you see the Dr,hope you are then much better.
June...fish are a great present,I was also going to say try cling wrap.
Brenda..that is fantastic news about your friend improving and needing visitors.Her children would be so happy.
Hi Broni..missed you while you were on the boat.
Glad you enjoyed yourself.
Heidi..still sending get well vibes to you.
Gail..how does the garden look now?
To everyone else,have a great week-end.

Hi everyone, I read but I rarely post.
Heidi, I do hope you feel better soon. For once I agree with my daughter, maybe you should go see a doctor.

Hi Bobby, nice to see you here. I will only have a small amount of water in the fish tank as I want to put it back in it's box and wrap it in pretty paper! The cling wrap will be a good idea though. Thank you. The rest of the water I will put in other containers.
Off on a bus trip today with some of the bowling ladies. We are going to a camellia garden the other side of Sydney. It should be a fun day out.
Tricia, thanks for letting us know that you are OK.Have a lovely relaxing time. Ken is going to Vietnam, Cambodia and Singapore next week so I should be able to get my French polishing finished.
Bean, enjoyed your blog. I will be in touch in the next few days.

Hi June, good to see you here. Have fun on the bus trip. I wish your husband a safe trip.
Tricia, I know what you are going through. Glad you checked in to let us know that you are ok.
Hi Mom, looks like I just missed you also.
Don't remember what else I was going to say.
Got some of my errands done today. Started pricing photographers and DJ's. I think I need to plant a money tree somewhere. Either that or rob a bank. Anyone want to help me???

Morning all!
Brenda, I am so happy about your friend!!!! I hope she continues to improve.
MizT, grrr no connection!
Tami, I thought it was going to be a small affair??? Photographers? DJs? Aaahh! Sending all sorts of thoughts and wishes that it all works out in the end...
Bobbi, 'for once' you agree with Tami?
Gail, MORE mulch? How big is your garden?
June, I think the fish are a great idea. And you've reminded me to remind the girls about their tanks which are getting a little green...
Bean, I think I already have the link to your blog, assuming it's the same one? If not, yes please!

Crafts, and it's morning rush....

Empty house!

Ebob's adventure with her ATM card... she bought herself a pair of jeans and a couple of tops. One of the tops has a lace bodice - very open lace. She wasn't going to wear any kind of undershirt with it (she can wear civvies today - school excursion)... I told her she might get attacked if she didn't cover up some of the cleavage!

Morning everyone..
Just passing, not reading..
Have a meeting to go to.
Got to get my skates on,
shower, dress, breaky
and then zoom zoom zoom !!

Later Aligater

Happy Birthday to Gail's Hubby Scott.

Suzy, it is only going to be about 60 people. I need the DJ to keep the pace and get everybody out of the restaurant on time. I would like a photographer so that we will have proof it happened. I called a photographer that my brother knows. It ends up that he knows alot of the same people I do, including one of my cousins. Him and my brother never talked about it. He said he will give me an excellent price as a favor to my brother. He sends people to my brother's store and my brother refers people to him.

Rolanda, I thought you were skating out the door??

Scott. I hope you have a great day.

Lovely SA people and to Gail's hubby Scott.
Off to see my Mum today.
MizT - life without a computer until next week.
Tami - I'm sure it will be OK on the day. It's just stressful trying to organise something so special.
Bean - I would like the link to your blog too, if you don't mind.
Heidi - how are you feeling today?
Hello also to Suzy, Rolanda, June, Bobbi, Nola, Gail, Broni and Stella.

Thanks for the birthday wishes friends. Guess what we are going to do today...go out to lunch! The kids are all going to be here for takeaway dinner tonight, pavlova for birthday cake. I will whip that up this arvo when we get home.
Bye for now xoxo

ps Nola, garden looks fantastic, but shows up what needs doing elsewhere.
Suzy, almost an acre!

Cyn, I know everything will be ok in january. It is just the planning that will drive me nuts (ok, nuttier). I wanted to do a lot over the summer and never got around to it. I spoke to a photographer today and really liked him. I am waiting for him to email a quote but I think I am taking him. I am trying to keep it cheap but still make it a nice day for Mitchell. I would get my mom to help, but we would end up arguing. We have different ideas.

Good night everyone. I hope everyone has a great day/night where ever they are. Hope tomorrow finds everyone not feeling weel, feeling better, too.

Hi folks! Happy birthday to Laura! (Sorry I'm late) and to Scott - have a great day. (MMmm, Gail's pavlova!

Well, not much happening round here - sore throat yesterday ... oh-oh! But seems to have passed without incident - hooray!
Was poking around in a rarely used cupboard the other day - and I found my missing stamp albums and other precious things I carefully packed away before the house renovations! In the meantime I'd given them up for lost and gone to the stamp shop to try to replace some of them - so now I have two lots of stamps and I've had a lovely time sorting and arranging them all. I guess the local fete will get a bonanza this year with all my spares. Happy now - don't you just hate it when things go missing?

We had a make-up/hair trial for the wedding. Suffice it to say that I am dreading the event even more than before! The lady seemed very nice, but she failed to read the warning signs when she commented on D1's skin problems - end result - D1 was extremely rude, then spent the rest of the time having hysterics in another room. Poor make-up lady! I'm really not seeing any way out of the problem - if she doesn't like the way she looks on the day she insists that she will redo the make-up in her usual style (ie: 1/2 inch thick!) Don't know what to do about this one ... :(
Sorry for ranting - I'm a wee bit depressed at the moment! Must go and rearrange my stamp-albums - very therapeutic!

I think I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. The severe cold meds are finally starting to work. I still feel crumby, but the fever has broken and I can breathe easier. I may rejoin the world in a day or two.

My tractor mechanic has been swamped with work. He FINALLY was able to get out here today. He had to take the tractor back to the dealership. It turns out that IH HAD broken it when I was in Florida. He broke the clutch again. From now on I will carry the keys with me so he can't use it. Forbidding him to use it hasn't worked.

Good Afternoon SA8
Whoo Hoo I am a supporting member again.
Scott, hope you enjoy your 'Gail'.
Cyn, hope your visit is a good one.
Judy, no licking the stamps hehe!
Tami & Judy start chanting now it will be alright on the day.
Good to see Bobbi and MizT.
Heidi, hope you are feeling better real soon.
Oh well back to work, catch y'all later.

Heidi, good to hear you are feeling a bit better. Will that man ever learn? hope he doesn't know how to jump start tractors.

Just dropping in..
Gail, we have 1.6, about a 1/3 is scrub (doesn't really qualify as bush), about 1/3 houses the lawnmowers, and about 1/3 houses us and is ignored as much as possible!!!!!

Tami, I don't know if I'd be brave enough to organise a party for 60 people - you go girl!

Oh and

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCOTT!!!!! Congratulations!
