A saturday in July

Another day at the footy....it's nice to get tix for free :) just the travel and the drinks. Richmond vs Esendon at the G... I was meaning to send a photo blog, but never got to it.. Jack was happy, this time he saw his team win :)and even better, watched the saints win over the hawks tonight in the warmth of my loungeroom. Hope to have picked up some tips, as I told the girls I would play footy this thursday, and if I survive that a couple of other days. UGHHH
The eczema on my hands is getting way worse, no matter what I do... I think I will try some antihistamines tomorrow...
Nat and Jack have set up Imbee accounts... it is a social networking site for younger kids... it makes parents sign up the kids with proof being a CC - handing out CC details always stresses me... but it seems to be ok :) - so far anyway. Nat has even writen her first blog... at the age of 8 - how cute, she wrote it about me.
ohhh dear.. getting sleepy

Ahh first day of hols, at least i am not

Ahh first day of hols, at least i am not as sick as last ones. Hehehe was up before 7am to make will porridge before tennis. And now we are at karate with jack. If is so prove of his orange tip. Calls himself am orange tip ho! Nat and i are kicking back on the sports mat, quite comfy although a bit chilly. Have my hairpiece in today felt like long hair for a change. Brrrr need a blanket. They are doing a lot of kata (sp?) Training today, this is good for our orange tip ho. Hehehe

Chess champion

Well if was confident of finishing 3rd but if won. What a star. One more week of term, it has been so long. Reports came home today, all excellent. Such a proud mum I am. Been a while since I have done the tennis run, he is so tired. Will have to give him a massage tonight, maybe a footspa. Pool is painted out. Things are moving. May have to bite the bullet and get the surgery. Life is to busy to be out of action for 6 weeks. We shall see.

Well neil has been scattered over turn 1

Well neil has been scattered over turn 1 infield. I gave him a hug between the girls before sharing him with the earth. Miss you mate. Had a drink at the royal for you.

Ahh been a while since we have travelled

Ahh been a while since we have travelled up to winton. Nice not to be leaving home at 5am though. Time to farewell neil at the track, and have a few tears and beers.

Saturn.

A long day. Open night is done. Love the Big telescope they use in physics. I saw saturn. I wonder how clear the pic is. I am exhausted. Loving my wiifit that my lovelies got of for mother's day. Today is the first day since i got it i haven't played. Hope i can get to the gym tomorrow. Way looking forward to the island on the weekend. Too tired to txt more.

The footy

Ahh mic got tix for the richmond vs hawks game. It was chilly and the first game jack has really been to. It was anyone's game until the last 5 mins, although the hawks should have won by heaps, they kicked 23 points. LMAO. Ahh 7.30 and on the train back to mum's. Still have stuff to do before work tomorrow. Thawing out.

holiday madness

just set up a youtube account....

hehehe OK... we have all done it.... surfed youtube....
I have a couple of vid and phone pic sites that I post to.... but I had not seen the need to go to youtube....
well... middle of school holidays... kids are bored... I am too sick and tired to move to far from home....what to do what to do????
kids... go make a movie..... narh, just use the little cameras... they have worked easiest on moviemaker....
hmmmmm... good theory...
they planned the script... rehearsed... then today we shot the action..(I was steady cam mum)
Will has used moviemaker before, so I tried to load them to that....grrrr... not reading formats...so I tried Premiere, haven't used it for a while... but was suprisingly impressed with the ease of use...I showed him the basics, and he went on to edit the movie... titles were a little trickier than moviemaker, but we worked that out...
I set up a youtube account (because they want the feedback...and the other sites I post to are fairly quiet, and I have them posted privately - places like teachertube are awesome for resources, and I posted a couple of vids I have produced as there... I have a few more to add....ANYWAY....
I may have to go back and resize.... their vid is 350mb.... will take ages to upload.... will let it run overnight... but I have added some others... and we shall see.
Will has an account with his cousin, and they make up stupid vids... taking simpsons excerpts and resyncing sounds... so I wanted them to try something a little more skilled....

for now I have uploaded a couple of old vids.... hehehe... me at my best.... with long hair...LOL

Race day

Hot hot hot going to tis a bucket of ice over soon. Marshals going down all over. Got to go drink. Race start still an hour away.

5.4

Well day one is done. It was long and hot, but we got some action. The porsche found the wall not a good place to stop. Working with a great team. Bit Bleagh this morning it was a hot night still 29 at 5am. The F1s are on track today, i wonder how the europeans will cope with 40c temps! Driving in glad mic is driving. Hehehe

Ahh phillip island. Not so much wind tod

Ahh phillip island. Not so much wind today, and the sun is still hiding. Working at point 4. Should be a fun weekend. Now it is sunday. The weather is warmer and magnificent. Ice to in to a steward's hearing yesterday. It was flat out. And today is no different. Only getting a sit down waiting for a mess to be cleaned up on the front straight. More later.

That feels better. I am awake, and glad

That feels better. I am awake, and glad i pushed myself to in to the gym. I needed it. Makes it 3 times this week which is my minimum goal. Bugger i played with google maps so much and have used my available Internet on the phone, next lot comes on monday, so it's mms til then. I must work out the whole tag thing so my clois have some links. Next month will be fun, we should get our point for the AGP next week. Woohoo. Would like to be in Adelaide this weekend for the clipsal, Ahh well if we lose the gp we can pick up there again. Time to get moving. Karate next. Suprised tennis wasn't washed out.

Ahh the rain on the tho some last night

Ahh the rain on the tin roof last night was a sweet lullaby. Waiting to get into the gym. Spur of the moment thing. Here we go to start the day

Swimming fun!

Perfect day for the sports. I even went in the splash and dash. OMG every muscle hurts today. The swimming efforts were added to with a fun night at barefoot bowls. We were all pretty shocking to start with, but after some expert coaching we were getting most of the balls in the right spot. Now to do some party shopping with the little miss.

Homework time.

Ahh she had been looking forward to it, until she got it. Now it's a drag to get it done. Ah well she will get into the swing i hope.

The baby teeth are out.

Well it took a little help from the dentist but those stubborn top teeth are finally out. They didn't get any more loose on their own, even with all of us trying to help. With the right tools and some pain killing fairies in the injection, and a big set of pliers they came out. Double whammy for the tooth fairy tonight. And some more panadol. She is such a brave little possum.

Pit stop

Finally got the bikes out and went for a ride around the new suburb. Loads of paths which is great for the kids and me. My legs sure can feel it, felt it from yesterday, but if i am going to shift this weight i am carrying i have to do it as well as the gym thing. Hehehe at least i had gears poor nat was pedaling her legs off. The sun is magnificent and tomorrow it heats up again. Yay. Weigh in for the no gain pool in the morning, so i hope i have sweated some off. As i type this of course i am sipping on a bubbly. Sun is about to set behind the houses, so i will be able to stop squinting. Sweat dripping in my eye stings.
