End of the Year not the World.............or Goodbye 2012




2012 is coming to a close and looking back it has been a great year for my family we had 3 babies born during the year which is always great, who doesn’t love babies they are so cute and adorable.
I have seen of Facebook some people saying that it wasn’t a great year but you know I can’t remember any of the lows of the year, I don’t know what that says about me and guess what I don’t care……………lol 

How is everyone going to see the New Year in? Me I will be in bed early………….lol 

My days of seeing the New Year in are long gone…………………lol

For the second year there are no fireworks held locally for us, there used to be fireworks at 9.30pm done on the foreshore which we could watch from our back yard which I loved doing.

I am having a can of scotch and coke this afternoon while I am writing this and I am going to ask/tell Tim I want to get pizza for tea tonight but we will have to get it delivered since I am having something to drink.

Tomorrow I have told the girls that I am having a baked lunch here and both Jessica & Kathy have said they will be here but I haven’t heard from Natasha so I just sent her a text asking if she would be here. I do not expect her to be her because I know my daughter and she rarely she comes to lunch. Jessica just rang and said that my niece Kelli and her son Daemon will also be here for lunch. 

I will be telling Tim that he has to go down and get them, well he will drive down and Tim will drive Jessica’s car back here and she will drive our car back. Her car is still playing up we have been told that it needs a new starter motor and it is booked in to have that replaced on Wednesday so she is leaving her car here for me to take to the auto electrician on Wednesday. 

My parents have picked up their motorhome and have left now for their holiday they will be back by the end of January as mum’s birthday is on the 30th and school goes back the same day so mum wants to be back by then.
