Another Day The Same....

Today is going to be the same as yesterday, I somehow don't think Isaac will be going to kindy, but I do have Eli for the day, well to about 3ish... just heard no Kindy for Isaac....

Tomorrow I will have Eli, when Isaac has school visit, Eli turns one next week Saturday.... then he will go home and I will be doing my friends nails at lunchtime. 

Oh slept in till 5.45am woohooo.... and now dressed waiting for daylight to hit. Tummy issues have gone thank god :).

Another good thing next week Sunday, is the shortest day of the year... yay the mornings will start to get lighter a fraction every day lol. 

Walk done...

Bloody hell it was cold out there today, a nice little frost....

Whoops ripped a nail off... so you know what that means needed to remove the lot, before I ripped them all off....
Kiddo's should be here anytime...

Today....

Today, same ole same ole.... woke up at 5am, and now waiting for daylight....a couple hours away nearly.

After kindy drop off, I will be having Eli till after pick up which Steph will do, then no doubt Isaac will want to stay for a bit....

Still have a squishy stomach.... 

Anyway thats me for now...

Well no walk for me today, I have spent more time on the loo than off.......

Well stomach settled so hopefully that is it for me, I ended up with both little munchkins....Isaac vomited last night, so not allowed at kindy for 24 hours, or maybe it is 48 hours..... he was quiet today which made a nice change, Eli was just being Eli lol. 

Another day of it tomorrow, not going to lie, starting to feel a little tired now :).

Anyway catch you all tomorrow :)

A New Week Begins.....

Woke up at 5am, now sitting here waiting for daylight for my walk - not sure if it will be a 20 or 30 min walk yet, depends on how my tummy is over the next 1 1/2 hours... I would like to aim for 150 minutes a week.

Going to have Eli for a bit later this morning, then am thinking of having him Wednesday for the night.

Catch you later....

Walk done, a slower one but thats ok :)

Before the walk, I cleaned the kitchen... so thats done :). 

Eli has been and gone, will have him tomorrow and Wednesday at this stage, while Isaac is at kindy, so Steph can catch up on some sleep. 

Nothing else to report, catch you all tomorrow :)

Fine Weather at Last.....

It is basically suppose to be fine for the next week at least, cold but fine, god I need that, so much rain does my head in.....

Today not much plans, watching IndyCar qualifying at 8.30am, then the race tomorrow is in the afternoon. 

No walk today, have massive stomach cramps, and Isaac was sick last night, so probably has what Eli had, luckily it only lasted 24 hours, well the vomiting anyway - hope I don't get it. 

Back later...

OMG the sun and blue sky out there is just perfect, the birds are enjoying the new orange I put out there this morning. 

This is the lego I made yesterday..... my wrist is so sore today, good thing I have no more to do for now :). 

My little friend is back, ok prob not the same one but it is still cute :)

I have just been sitting outside in the sun, for about an hour, it was so nice. 

Dad's open home went ok, one person through third visit, going to mortgage broker tomorrow to see if they can do a back up offer, but she has only just started working here in NZ, her partner is coming to NZ in August.... so not looking good for them at this stage. 

Still feeling a bit off, Isaac came and visited for a couple of hours, tomorrow morning I will have Eli for a couple of hours, while Steph goes to the doctor about a lump on her arm, to see if it needs to be removed or not, and to check it is not melanoma....

It has been an ok day, we had two Tui's here for a bit, enjoying the oranges :).

Catch you all tomorrow, plan to go for a walk in the morning, providing my tummy issues allow :).

Take 5 Maybe.....

Will I or wont I, do take 5 of that bloody Mario head again..... not sure yet...... I so want to get the bloody thing finished, at least I know I am not the only one, googling it many many people have the same issue. Add to that a bung wrist and long nails and it makes it even harder. 

No walk today, woke up with the worst headache ever.....

Confession time, the last few weeks, I have been eating everything I shouldn't had a few good days then bad weeks. I think the headache is from the crap I have eaten, so starting today I am getting back on track, low carb, higher protein. I need to turn this around NOW!!!!!!

IndyCar is on this weekend, but thankfully it is on in the afternoon starting tomorrow, so no real early mornings this weekend. 

The rain is suppose to stop today, thank bloody god - I have hated it. Last night it was 15 degrees with 98% humidity. Give me a cold morning/day any day. 


And it's fucking done..... bloody hell a lego has never ever made me this frustrated...., better not have a bloody earthquake now. 

It is now safe in the china cabinet....

Started and finished a much smaller lego, photo tomorrow, did it while Isaac played Astrobot on the playstation. Now I have none left to do, so might go out and get a new one later next week.

Not much else has happened.....

Catch you all tomorrow :)

One Step Closer....

Got confirmation from the lawyer that dads house is one step closer, the builders report/Asbestos Roof and Lim report is all ok, so the only thing is for them to sell the house..... cross fingers, still not getting to excited yet....

No walk today, no reason... might go later who knows....

Todays plans finish lego just have the ears to go so only about 30 pieces left on my Mario Cart.

Kindy drop off....

Vacuum and mop the floors....

And thats it for now, lets hope I have a photo later of the lego :)

Vacuuming done, will mop the floors after drop off, (if that happens, Eli has been vomiting), so need to make sure Isaac is not sick. 

Then I will do my lego hopefully lol

Drop off done..... 

Well I finished the head of Mario (lego), went to click it on and it crumbled again.... so I threw it on the desk and walked away then I mopped the floor to get rid of my frustration...... I was fuming . So no photo today of it, it can sit there for the next few days/weeks till I have calmed down again.....

5am....

Woke up at 4.45am, then got dressed ready for my walk, just need some daylight to come....

After that Eli will come while Isaac does his school visit with mum and dad.

Don't think I will do my lego today, it is doing my head in lol. 

And thats it from me for now....

Walk done, again very slow, I didn't even do 2k's lol - I change routes most days, and todays walk was with a lot of wet slippery autumn leaves.... so I took my time, don't think I will do that route again till the leaves have gone..... I have broken enough ankle bones in my life, I really don't want another one.


Quite a nice sunrise as well.....

And this was my start of the day, he was here for a couple of hours.
Now I have Isaac, school visit went really well again :)
He will go home about 3ish... David has come home sick - great.

Not much else to report.... going to have an early night probably lol.

Catch you all tomorrow :)

Today I am Walking..... and Dad has been gone 7 months today.....

Today I am walking, at some stage, I am dressed ready to go, and will stay dressed in workout gear till I have walked. 

This house is still so bloody hot, doesn't help that the mornings are bloody warm and humid. 

Steph has had a turn just when things were settling.... just trying to stay calm myself, without letting rip. I am not sure if I am doing drop off or not.

Dad has been gone 7 months today, still hard to get through today. 

Anyway back later.....

I went for my walk, slow but thats ok, it was wet and slippery out there.... Yes I got wet, did I melt, NO did I enjoy the walk, kinda the rain was a bit of a damper... Am I glad I went now that I am showered and dressed yes lol

Going to do kindy drop off, then some housework, then hopefully finish the Mario lego, only have 3 bags to go :). 

OMG the Mario head is so hard, I still have not finished it, having a break then will try to finish it today......

Have given up on the lego till tomorrow or the next day, for some reason I cant get the hat to fit the head.... so a break is needed. 
Tomorrow morning I will have Eli while they do a school visit with Isaac... then not sure what the day will hold.

Catch you all tomorrow :)

Another Wet Day, with a Heavy Rain Warming....

Well again no walk, heavy rain warning in place and its bloody heavy rain out there.... and add Autumn leaves out there and I will probably arse over. 

Today I will be doing drop off and pick up for Isaac...

Today I also want to work on my Lego, but have a few things to do before that.... like going for my diabetic eye test.....

Back later....

Eye test done, and all looks good :)

Kindy drop off done, and man was it windy and wet out there.

Might go and do some more lego :). I think the wheels will be going on the cart today :)

Also need to look for some kind off raincoat for my walks :)

I have spent the day doing lego here is the update, just got the head to do tomorrow :).


I am tired today for what ever reason, we had some sun poke out today, that was fun lol.

Anyway going to sign of the day, catch you all tomorrow.

Well Another New Week, Month and Season....

4.30am, and watching the IndyCar race.....

A new week, month and a new season begins today, we are finally in Winter, you know what that means Spring is the next season.... I love Spring :).

IndyCar finishes about 7am, so hope to get out for my walk then.... doesn't seem to be raining now... then do my kitchen clean (Monday job).

Later will prob do more lego and not sure what else :)

Well it's absolutely pissing down out there, so no walk for me today, I can still use my gym membership for another 2 weeks, so if I can't get any walks in the next couple of days, I can use the treadmill :) 

Well kitchen done..... and slightly rearranged :). And it's still raining :). Oh and to turn the heaters down as it was still to hot. 

Bet you can't guess who came and spent the day - if you guessed Isaac you would be right lol.

I worked on my lego, up to bag 8 :), starting to look like a cart now.

Anyway thats me for today, lets see what the weather is like tomorrow morning, to see if I will be going for my walk.

Catch you all tomorrow :)

Another Day The Same....

Today is going to be the same as yesterday, I somehow don't think Isaac will be going to kindy, but I do have Eli for the day, well to a...
