Nothing Much Going On Here

Ok I have been so busy the last few days that I haven't had a chance to do another post but here I am on  a beatiful Saturday at last sitting to write a post but not sure how long it will take to get it written as I have to watch baby Summer while Kathy & Michael go to a house inspection they are trying to find a house to buy...............well it is Michael's parents who are buying the house for them but they will be the ones making the payments.

I have Jessica and Leo still here so at the moment Jessica is feeding Summer while I sit here are type. As I said today is a beautiful day it is fine and sunny but not that warm but not that cold either it is cool enough to be wearing long pants though.

Anyway what have I been upto since I last wrote...............hmmmmm..................let me think................answer nothing much............lol l was shopping all day yesterday and in the afternoon felt stuffed up in the head so took some cold tablets they are suppose to be non drowsy but they still made me tired............so I was in bed early. I left Leo with papa when I went to bed..............

Speaking of Leo he is doing really good at school the staff even gave him a 10 out of 10 for behaviour.
I just had to do a spot of car/ute repairing ok not really but I did manage to get the tire back on Leo's toy remote control ute he had ran it into a wall and the back tire came off so nanna had to repair it and get it going again.

I have now had lunch and played with Summer before rocking her to sleep and putting her into her bassanett.

I hope to read some blogs this afternoon............

Home Again...................and I am glad to be home

Home again we arrive home at around 8pm on Sunday night, and I was so happy to get home the first thing I did was have a hot bath then food but thankfully since we flew QANTAS  again which meant we were fed on the flight home. The food was nice too and Tim liked that he was able to have a screwdriver (vodka & OJ).

I did get a little annoyed with Tim as we both wanted to go to the toilet but first we wanted to find were the shuttle bus was which we did and after finding were to wait for it he decided to wonder off and find a toilet and in doing so caused us to miss the shuttle bus as it came while he was gone and didn’t wait around. So we had to get the next shuttle which meant a wait of 40minutes so I was annoyed. Tim was also annoyed mostly with himself for wondering off and agreed he should had waited or asked if anyone knew how long it would be till the shuttle would arrive.

I also had close to 900 emails when I returned to my main email account as I was unable to check that one while we were gone most of those were blog post that I follow via email so I just deleted pretty much all of the emails with exception of maybe 5 emails……………… 

We visited some lovely places and I did have a good time more or less……………………….by that I mean there was a couple of days that I wasn’t real happy in fact I felt pretty down and sad and just wanted to come home. We were gone a total 10 days 9 nights as we left on the Friday afternoon after Tim got home from work and the trip to Sydney took forever as we got stuck in peak hour traffic but it was good that we didn’t have to leave early on the Saturday morning to catch our flight.

We are not ones to spend a long time away from our family; we miss them too much when we are away from them.

So I am back making the blog rounds and have to say I have really missed it but just didn’t have the time to do so when we were away that and the fact that you don’t get good free internet service while travelling………..lol

Anyway here a few more photos of our holiday

Feeling Down Wanting to go Home

Last night I slept a tiny bit better only woke up around 5 times during the night I am so looking forward to going home.

I don't know why but I have been so down today, in fact I have felt like crying most of the day we have done very little sight seeing today. We did go to the Canterbury Museum which was great I enjoyed it, then we went and got some lunch before returning to the motel for the night.

Tomorrow before going to the airport we are going to visit the New Zealand Air Force Museum.

Oh yeah I have forgotten to say that we are in Christchurch............

Dreaming about Dreaming

Good morning everyone, have to say I am up early again 6am I got out of bed and went and had a hot bath.........why you wonder........well I had yet another horriable nights sleep.

Now get this last night I had one of those nights that I had a dream in a dream in a dream, now you maybe wondering what the hell I am on about so I will tell you..................it's when you are dreaming about dreaming.

Ok let me describe better I was asleep and I was dreaming and I dreamt that I was asleep dreaming but here is where the really weird bit comes in............at one point I dreamt that I woke from a dream I thought wow just a dream then I actually woke up and thought I just dreamt I was dreaming and in that dream I was dreaming again...........so that meants it was a dream about dreaming in which I was having a dream..........see weird................

Now most of the night I dreamt that I was dreaming about the room are staying in......things like people knocking at the door or trying to open the door and I know this was a dream because in my dream I would wake up look at the clock look around the room and thing just a dream but the clock was different and the room looked a little different and then I would wake up for real and realise I was dreaming about dreaming..................

This went on all night add to that I woke up every hour or so and of course there is the fact that on the second night of our holiday I stood on the mask to my Cpap machine breaking the clip at the side so the mask isn't doing up and I have to hold it together often during the night.....................so all in all I have not been sleeping well..................then we have the whole waking up drenched in sweat and NO I am not suffing from night sweats it is just that the doona on the beds are really warm and Tim has been leaving the heater on in the room and I just over heat and that makes me sweat.

After my hot bath I decided to put on some long light weight pants and one of Tim's singlets, because I left mine at home.................silly me...............

A Rainforest and some Pancake Rocks

Good afternoon everyone we are now in Greymouth staying at the Kingsgate Hotel have to say it is another nice place, it is an older place well let me say that a bit different the place doesn't look old in any way from the outside and in the loby and reception areas but in the room its self you can tell that it is an older place the bathroom looks old but it has a bath.......and those of you who know me at all know that I love to have a bath more then I like showers...........

Anyway today after we left the motel we stoped at the Charleston Nile River Rainforest Train, this is a short ride in train up through the rainforest and I have to say it was bloody awesome.

We then headed towards Greymouth but we stopped at a place called Punakaiki and went for a walk to look at the Pancake Rocks and blowholes it was also bloody mavellous we hadn't planed to stop there but I had to go to the toilet and that was why we stopped and we both were glad we did.

Yesterday afternoon I decided to oder breakfast at the motel for this morning which we did but for some reason Tim ordered 2 hot breakfast which I thought was a silly thing to do when he did it but he thought he knew best and of course he only ate maybe half of his and I ate 3/4 of mine. I had suggested we order one meal and share it but no he knew best.............I do at times get annoyed that he doesn't listen to me.

The Wow Musuem

Today is Tuesday the 7th May and I am sitting in the car writing this while Tim goes for a bush walk through the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary I would had gone with him but it is both cold and a lot of uphill walking well it looked to be a lot of uphill walking I started out with him but it looked to steep for me and I am not that interested anyway, so I decided to sit in the car and wait for Tim. www.brooksanctuary.org.nz

This morning we wnet to the World of Wearable Art & Classic Car Museum and that was really nice I like old cars and the wearable art was interesting ok some of it was jus plain ugly but still we enjoyed it. www.wowcars.co.nz

I do find it annoying not being able to access the internet from our motel room but oh well such is life I guess, at least it gives me a reason to go to Macca's for breakfst each day.....lol

Tim likes wildlife and birds and I love old stuff so while we are away we try to see both types of attractions.

Tim had to buy a new camera as his started taking blurry photos but he had it for around 5yrs and has taken countless photos with it, the new camera is the same brand as the old on and that was just a fluke.
