Merry Christmas
Bitter sweet Christmas....
I found out yesterday, Christmas eve that my oldest and dearest friend has been diagnosed with bowel cancer.... and has already been operated on...
I spoke to her this morning... after going to mass....I feel so helpless....
The kids are enjoying Christmas morning as they should...santa was good to them.... but I keep thinking about Kate's kids... spending Christmas day visiting mum....
Better go and get joyous....

Catching up
I haven't had a day's break in ages.... what with one tihng and another... so having last weekend's events start later in the day was lovely....
Saturday was the celebration of Gordon's first birthday and Mel's 40th...held at the WattleGlen esatate :)
Katrin had the kids disappear for hours with a bounty of $100 riding on the capture of a rabbit :) needless to say her cash was safe.
Sunday I made lots of the VFT guys and gals a little envious of my ride earlier in the week... hehehehe
and today... I am making space invaders with year 7 and 8s.... they are having fun :)
Tomorrow digital christmas cards :):)

What a week.... WHAT a month
December just seems to be a haze...
The V8s finale at Phillip Island was pre-empted with a week with only one night not commited to "something".
Thursday night was sad as I farewelled two great mates I have worked with for over 20 years....I probably drank too much... hmmm a bit of self medication... LOL... but it was good I wasn't tooooooooo messy....
The drive down to the island the next morning was a bit of a challenge... ughhhhh.... starting the weekend of long days tired was not good... but we brightened up the office with a couple of blondes on Friday... .the drivers seemed to appreciate the giggles...as we checked their licences and other documents.
Saturday was soooooooooo smoky... brought back memories of the conditions on Ash Wednesday.... however, these fires seem to be more that a one of event... and it looks like they may be burning with us for most of the summer :(
Sunday flew.... needing a nana nap from the heat at the partaying on Sat night... the race result was hmmm contoversial... but the decision was made eventually later in the week... and Holden was No 1 again :)
A friend from work was given my guest pass, a regular arrangement... I love to give them to people who really enjoy the racing as well as the event... well... on Tuesday I got the best thank you ever for the passes...
A hotlap around Phillip Island with Garth Tander - one of my favourite V8 drivers :):)
I am still buzzing.... and do you think the gang at the VFT party was a little jealous yesterday??? hehehe even the ford fans :):)
Anyway... I will come back to last weekend later... better get some work done :)

Jingle bells are coming
and the time is still flying.....
looking forward to a break over Christmas and New Year...
Miss Nat's ballet concert was wonderful on Sunday.... she is a little trooper.... when I asked if she was lonely being at the theatre from 10.30 am til 8.30pm... little miss replied... "how could I be lonely.... I am here with all of my friends"
gotta love her :)
TPL day today... yay... but going in to fix up some Moodle stuff... and hopefully clear off my desk....
today is the only day with nothing on this evening....33C and a day of total fire ban... I can smell the smoke...ughhhhhhvery hazy out there..... they reckon the fires in the past couple of days are more like February fires, rather than the start of the season...and the fires up north could burn all summer..... it's definitely dry enough....will make the drive to Qld interesting
Trying to work out MySpace... hehehe... maybe tonight.....
tomorrow INTEL.... then Sue and Jill's farewell... then the Island :)
woo hooo..... and Tinky coming down from Qld....
better fly
