Guess Were I Ended Up On Thursday?????



You will never Guess But I will give you a hint..........................................I'm sure family service will be knocking on my door soon hopefully that's it for now 3 thing in a few months



And I bet you can't guess which child it is!!!!!!!!!!!!



That's right it was my accident prone Thomas...........................................
.........after seeing a lovely photo of the break, it was plastered, well 1/2 plastered. Next week we have more x-rays and then hopefully a full plaster. He was at a friends place when it happened. How you ask, break dancing spinning on his head and the landing wasn't what he wanted. They put ice on it and it was fine (so they thought) the next morning his hand looked like a rubber glove that was blown up and a nice shade of black. Vicki took him to the hospital until I could get there. A bad day for me with work the departments were here from Brisbane and Toowoomba and we were also catering for 20 people for the day. I got there just in time to have the doctor break the news that it was broken. They took him out the back were he was really brave while they straightened his fingers and set the plaster. Thomas eyes were dry but mine were very wet. Such a sook.

Thomas was meant to have his High School interview Thursday afternoon, but that didn't happen. It also means no guitar lessons, no basketball, no band practice and no work for a while. (I will be home early every night and tea will be ready earlier how cool is that)

We had a really mad week at work so glad it's the weekend. I decide to clean out the kitchen cupboards and the linen cupboards yesterday and today. (How silly was that) Tomorrow we have the dance concert Wooohoooooo dance is then over until next year. Christmas is coming around quite quickly soon all the TV shows will be finishing and we will be able to put up the Christmas tree. Can't wait for turkey lunch.

Have to go we are having pizza for tea. Michael is away working now for how long who knows.

Bye

Keely's Excited


Keely pick her first cherry tomato off her plant tonight. There are quite a few nearly ready to pick. And doesn't it look delicious, I wonder who will eat it? She waters her veggies every morning before school and again when she gets home.
What an wonderful episode of Domestic Bliss, it's so good to see so many people pull together and do something so wonderful for one family. Keely brought over tissues all through the episode I think I had tears in my eyes for most of it. And how Special was it for they did up the manaro for dad. What a wonderful family full of so much love and support I wish them all the best in the future.

Well nearly alone Abbey is home for a little while, she is baby sitting tonight and sleeping over. Thomas turned 13 today finely a teenager. Keely & Thomas have left to go to Charleville. Michael is carting grain and I'm about to do some house work. So there isn't much happening at the moment, the house is very quiet.

MICHAEL JACKSON NIGHT ON IDOL

Keely has just her birthday and Thomas's isn't far away. Thomas wont be home for his birthday as him and Keely are going to Charliville for Band Camp (nothing at all to do with American pie Kurt) anyway their birthday presents arrived on Friday.

They both got Street Cubes Mics and stands. So Sunday night and tonight have been very loud in the house. This is Thomas's, Keely's is black.

Keely and Abbey really enjoyed MJ night on Idol, they sang on the mics to all the songs as well as the adds (God only knows what the neighbours thought). They clicked their fingers and wiggled their hips, They were back up singers for Luke when his sang his song.


The photos aren't great still using an old camera, anyway have to go bye for now.

I HAVE BEEN BUSY..................................

I had a weekend with a difference this weekend. No kids...............never happens. They all had sleepovers at friends places. The house was very quiet.
This gave me some time up my sleeve to do this.....................



and this................................................................................

and this......................................................................................

and this with the leftovers.........................................................................



They are all packs from Cut & Paste

This is the new addition to the driveway that I have spoken about Michael is very excited to have brought a brand new truck. He has always brought brand new second hand trucks

It has everything in it from Microwave to TV with a DVD, Toaster, Kettle, refrigerated air conditioner and lots of switches that do "Who knows" Did I mention the surround sound.



Yes that's me in the truck going out to load. You gotta love harvest time. I think this is the first time I've been in the truck for 5 or 6 years. Michael was happy I did a load yesterday (bored because I couldn't handle the no noise thing in the house) & again today. Now I don't have to go again for another 5 years or until I'm bored because the kids aren't home.
Some photos to prove that I was in the paddock for those who don't believe me "MUM".


"HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR YESTERDAY MUM" Love you

&

Happy Birthday Aunty Dianne

Have to go the kids are all home now. Bye

A big week....................

Another busy week in the house this week. Thomas decided to help me cook tea, he thought it would be a good idea to turn the steak after he had turned the steak , one piece anyway it was a quick trip to the local hospital he had about 9 blisters on one side of his tummy after cleaning them and dressing them he looked like a mummy all bandaged up. So the next 2 days were back to the hospital for new dressings then I was aloud to dress them. He decided not to tell me when it first happened if he had of told me it might not have been so bad.

All the soccer stuff is at the auditors looking in better shape then last year hope the accountant thinks so.

Abbey had her last formal for the year she looked lovely. Year 12 next year this year has gone so fast.



Keely had her party this weekend for her birthday there were 8 girls who slept over. They played some games and had lots of fun most of them were good but there was a couple that...................................not as easy as Abbeys parties. So today after hardly any sleep the party is the last thing I want to talk about.


Thomas played in the State School band and the St Marys school band at the Battle Of The Band at the High School on Friday. Not sure which band won the were about 9 of them. It was funny seeing Thomas playing in the St Marys band everyone asked why he was playing with them Keely told them he had swapped schools.

My scrap booking area is now finished and I plan to scrapbook all next weekend (Fingers crossed)

Anyway I off to bed for a good nights sleep I have a photo of Thomas all bandaged up will put it on next time BYE...............

These are the presents that I got for my birthday, lots of goodies. lots of Pandora my favorite thing this year & last year. I was also given a voucher from the jewellers for $150.00 which I brought a new Pandora bracelet and a charm







Keely turned 11 and got lots of presents and money, she is wanting to buy a Karaoke Machine. She also got a beautiful Goose egg jewellery box that aunty Barb made, Abbey and I are very jealous. Keely is having a sleepover with her friends on the 25th they are camping outside, I will have to warn the neighbours



Claudia gave Keely a 1/2 Of a heart with friends forever on it. So Cute.




We also have another new addition in the driveway, I will share a picture of that later.

The school holidays were very quiet Abbey spent the first week at the snow with the school and Thomas spent the second week in Rocky he loved it up their and can't wait to go back. Keely didn't do to much.

My new scrap booking area is just about finished hopefully John will be over on the weekend to fix the tables to the wall.

We are going on a road trip to Charleville tomorrow for the weekend. The office staff and a few carers are coming we are leaving here at 9.45am, on a bus from Brissy, we will be picking up other people on the way. Not sure what time we get there but it is a long way. We have a full weekend of training with a little fun on Saturday night. Can't wait, should be a great night with lots of laughs with what we will be wearing. I will have lots of photos to share when we get back.

Have to go and iron some clothes, pack my bag and get some sleep.
