A New Week....

I am tired, the weekend has caught up with me, was going to mow lawns but in all honesty I can't be bothered right now, will see how I feel later :)

Early this morning I got a txt from Steph to come over, poor little Eli had bad croup..... we managed to get him breathing better and think he might be back asleep, it was touch and go if we should go to hospital or not. He has Plunket today so will see what they say. We are still waiting on the hearing appointment for him. 

Did my kitchen housework this morning, and will do school drop off today.....

Well the weekend was rough, its the night times... First night Isaac went to sleep at 11pm and wee little munchkin Eli went to sleep at midnight, last night was slightly better Isaac was asleep about 8pm ish and Eli 11pm.....The rest of the weekend was ok.... They go home about 11am - 12pm ish...... Then I might sleep, have not had a good sleep either night lol. Now I don't have them for another 5 weeks..... :). 

Man we had some wicked thunder and lightening last night, but today looks like the worst of it is over for us. The good news with the shit weather not many fireworks went off....

Hope to mow the lawns tomorrow, weather dependant... and will have to go grocery shopping once the munchkins are gone.

Today.......

Today is one year ago that Dad passed, it's been tough as each day got closer, I have had a good cry, and am sure there will be more today. I have been giving myself a few allowances this week. In a funny way I feel at piece right now kinda. 

David has today off, might finally go and get our tomato and cucumber plants and vote, as I will have the kids this weekend. 

Come tomorrow I need to refocus on me.... first of get back walking/swimming and also start having breakfast again, so I just don't pig out on junk, which I have been doing the last week. I need to make not only myself proud but also need to make Dad proud of me. 

My fish are doing good, and they are cute every morning when they see me walk to the tank to feed them they get so excited, its nice lol. Have watered the gardens this morning and will now see what the day holds. 

Oh and my haircut, not the best of photo's but it will do lol, no bleach just grey :)

Not sure if I mentioned but didn't do Halloween this year as in decorations, and won't be doing Christmas decorations this year as the kids are going to their dad's. David will be at his sisters, I might go to my sisters but might not, looking forward to having a few days to myself :)

We went and voted, and went to Mitre 10 and got some Tomatoes and Cucumber plants, and also brought two new Passionfruit Plants as our one out the back as sadly maybe died.... this time we will plant them with our other trees out our front area (the area by the lounge).

Whoops Another Day I didn't Come Back....

Whoops forgot to come back yesterday, Isaac came for a visit, then he went home and I took Eli for a couple of hours.....

On to today, today I want to change the fridges over, so the one that beeps when the door is left open will go in the kitchen as lovely Eli decided he loves to open the freezer and leave it open.... I will also give them a good clean.

No school drop off today as I need to go to Toyota to pick David up as he drops the car of for a service. 

This afternoon I get my hair cut, no bleach as I really can't justify $400 for a bleach and also I don't want to sit in a chair for 3 hours either...

Done my kitchen clean this morning....

It was a year ago today that my only Uncle in NZ passed away, and a year tomorrow for dad. All my relatives except for one of mums sister and their family live in Holland. So now its just me, sister and 2 cousins left in NZ. 

This week I have Eli on Wednesday, and am having both kids this weekend, I am having them a week early they will come here after school Friday... and go home Sunday lunchtime.... glad it's only 2 nights this time lol. 

Well the fridge changeover has been done, it was harder than what I thought. Just killing time now till my haircut later today. 

Haircut done, man my greys are really showing through lol, will do a pic tomorrow. 

Dinner is done, just needs heating up so glad thats done. 

And thats me for today.... catch you all tomorrow :).
