From Sunday to Saturday in my Life

Up at 6am again, Tim got up at 7.25 complaining he was late when I checked the roster it said he started at 7.45, so yeah he was running late.

Been another hot day, I am dripping in sweat.

Spent ages doing Chrisco orders but I will need to ring them tomorrow as the headstart didn't roll over.

Jess dropped off her work clothes this afternoon.

Another early start to the day up at 6am again although I was awake at 5am when Tim got up.

I went to aqua before I went to the doctors for a care plan review. Tim drove me to the doctors.

While at Mount Hutton I went to Millers for mum.

I have lost 16.5kilos in 4 months according to the doctor, although according to my scales I have lost 19 kilos.

Mum didn't ring me so at 5pm I rang her, she was upset because David hid Dawson's ipad and Mum & Dawson couldn't find it, it was in Sue's room under a pillow. He hid it because Dawson ate what David considered his biscuits. Mum said she felt that Dave & Sandy were acting like children.

Awake and up at 5.30am just before Tim, it is suppose to be another hot day.

Had the air con on from 10am.

Jess took forms back to Whitebridge High.

Mum & Dad's wedding anniversary.

Leo here tonight.

Up at 5.50am this morning Leo was already awake.

Chrisco came at 9am for all of us, Natasha came and collected hers and stored some things in my freezer.

I had a lay down but I didn't sleep.

Mum said she has felt sad all day, I said it may be because yesterday was her wedding anniversary, she said that could be the reason.

I woke at 1am feeling sick in the gut and I ended up throwing up.

I dragged myself out of bed at 6.30am I managed to get dressed. However, I still not feeling good.

Had a moment when Tasha had to come down and make me some toast with honey.

Had a bath and had to call Tasha and get her help get dressed.

Leo is here tonight of course.

Up at 5.45am this morning, it is nice getting up so early.

Going to be another hot day temps in the 30's.

I turned the air con in the kitchen on before I left home, when I got home I found the air cons in the bedrooms were on. I think Blain turned them on.

I am fed up with my right arm and body shaking so bloody much. This afternoon I am just over it.

Awake at 5.45am up at 6am and by 6.15 I was dressed for the day and dripping in sweat but it is not hot it is lovely and there is a slight breeze.

I thought the running hot and cold was over but I was wrong during the last month it has returned.

Tim went and bought us all Macca's for breakfast.

Kathy and the girls came over with shopping and while here Summer helped me put up some Christmas decorations.

Tim drove Leo home this afternoon.

Well I guess it is time to post this

Thursday's words

Friendship and kindness walk arm- in-arm through life.

One without the other is bittersweet, together they are joy and comfort.

For one is silver, the other gold.

Creature Day/Emoeror penguin

I do not know why but for some reason I forgot to do a post yesterday but this morning I am with it..............................kinda................................

Tuesday is creature day and today's creature is the Emperor Penguin, it is the tallest and heaviest of all living penguin species and is endemic to Antarctica. The male and female are similar in plumage and size, reaching 122 cm in height and weighing from 22 to 45 kg.

They are found all around the coasts of the Antarctic continent. They breed during the depths of the Antarctic winter and in some of the most desolate, coldest, windiest and downright grim places on the planet during the season of 24 hour darkness.

Some emperor penguins are the only birds that never set foot on land.

It is difficult enough survive in Antarctica, let alone breed, the female lays the egg in the mating are, after the chick hatches she leaves it with the male and goes in search of food which she stores in her stomach and coughs up to feed the chick.

To avoid freezing they have a thick layer of fatty blubber under their skin and a blubbery, feathery brood pouch just above their feet, where the egg or chick can shelter. The parents need to take care not to drop the egg onto the ice or it will quickly freeze.

Another week done and dusted and another year older

Again I was up at 6am, becoming the norm.

When Kelli dropped off Blain she took Leo home to his mum's.

Kathy-Lee and her girls came over and did some housework for me. She washed the kitchen floor which was very dirty and she made a comment about it. She also partly washed the bathroom floor.

Sydney-May & Summer took turns vacuumed the lounge and hall way.

Kathy also ironed her dad's work shirts.

I had a low BGL moment this afternoon when I was on the phone to mum, Blain came when I sent him a text. Tasha was out when I texted her but she came down when she got home. I made some toast after Blain gave me some honey.

While I wasn't good I went to sit on Tim's chair but slide off onto the floor.

This morning I slept in to 7.30am what the hell is with that.

Tim drove me to the podiatrist who cut my toenails.

He is on afternoons this week.

Tasha is in a great deal of pain, it looks like she has an abscess so she rang the after hours GP. They prescribed antibiotics and she sees the dentist tomorrow.

This morning I was up at 5.40am, the first thing I did was check to see if Leo's school was open and it was. Sandra rang mum and told her she saw that it was closed, so Tasha rang the school to check.

Leo is here tonight, although Tasha didn't have to get him from school as Jess did that.

Around 5.30ish Leo and Blain got into a spat which saw Leo grab a weapon a metal stick and he hit Blain with it. I tried to explain that using a weapon is a big NO NO. He didn't get it.

Leo was crying and saying Blain was a bully and hated him and Blain feels the same.

I felt stuck in the middle as I love all my grandchildren the same but I feel closer to Leo than Blain.

Leo said he wants to ask Papa drive him to school.

I am very upset about the whole thing.

This morning Leo asked Papa to drive him to school as he doesn't want to go with Tasha. Papa said he would.

Sandra rang and asked if Tim would pay for Dad's headstone I said I didn't think so, so she came over and spoke to Tim and he did say he couldn't that he didn't have the money.

Kathy rang and let me know that Summer has a virus which has given her a rash.

Been a lot cooler today just had the doors open no need for the air con.

Up at 6am again, going to be a warm day again. I have a headache and feel like shit.

Had to have a nap as I felt so tired, only laid down for an hour.

When Leo went to make his noodles the kettle didn't work, so I will need a new one.

I was awake at 5am, but managed to lay in bed till 5.30, then I got up and had a bath and I also put Tim's work clothes on to wash. I was able to hang it out before I went shopping.

It has been another hot day here, I turned the air con when Tim left for work.

Speaking to Mum this afternoon and she told me about her & Dad's first date.

It was on the 4^th July 1958 Dad asked her to the movies and he rang his Aunty Joyce and asked her if she could bring him a clean pair of trousers and she did. Side note, Aunty Joyce never drove and had to catch a bus into Newcastle and another one back to Walllsend a distance of 12k's as the crow flies. Aunty Joyce didn't think Mum was good enough for Dad.

It was Mum who took care of Aunty Joyce in her old age.

Tasha had wanted to take our car to drop Blain off because of the heat but she didn't because Tim carried on about it.

Jess asked him why he is suddenly so possessive with the car, he said he didn't know. He did go on a bit about it being his car and he should be able to use it when he wants, no one disagrees but the way he carries on annoys me.

It should be our car not his.

I woke at 4.30 to go to the loo and wasn't able to get back to sleep so I got up at 6am again.

While alone I got the clothes off the line and checked my emails

Tim gave me a $60 gift card from Kmart.

Jessica & Leo gave me new clothes.

Natasha & Blain gave me a new watch.

Kathy & Family gave me new clothes & earrings.

Had Kathy, Summer, Jessica & Leo her for lunch Tim bought pizza.

After lunch Kathy filled out the forms for Whitebridge High, the way her and Jess acted had me laughing.

I did have a little cry missing Dad.

Been another bloody hotish day.

Spent some time updating my address file and printed them ready to do my Christmas cards.

As I am no longer able hand-write stuff I have to print the to and from parts and paste them in the card.

Life lately

Good afternoon, everyone how is everyone this Wednesday afternoon?

I am well even though I am aching all over as per usual and my jaw is moving a lot.

Some people may have noticed that at times that comments I leave may at times look like it is incomplete this is because at times I accidentally hit publish before I am ready. I hope people understand when this happens

We have had some bloody stinking hot days with horrible fires all over, thankfully they are not around me although the school at one end of the street was closed yesterday but the one at the other end that Blain goes to was open as per usual as was Leo's school. My granddaughters also had to go to school.

Yesterday Tim left his mobile phone at home when he went to work, Natasha rang the office and asked them to let him know, so he didn't think he lost it on the way to work. He said because he didn't have it his night was long and boring, he spends a lot of time watching stuff on his phone. He said it made him think of the days before smart phones.

Yesterday I also spent a few hours doing the calendars for next year but it is now done and this year I didn't stuff it up.

Tasha just rang and asked if I would cook up my packet of popcorn for her and of course I did.

Did you know facts about WW1

Hello everyone, how is everyone on this lovely Monday morning no afternoon it is.

Because it is Remembrance Day I have five facts about World War 1.

An explosion on the battlefield in France was heard in England

Journalists risked their lives to report on the war

Around 12 million letters were delivered to the frontline every week

Plastic surgery was invented because of WW!

The youngest British soldier in WW1 was just 12 years old.
