Homework

For my drama homework I have to study a person and the way they walk and talk and behave for a week. When I got home I told Dad about it. We were talking and Dad said would it be like stalking? Then i said not really.
Dad then said maybe I should write you a [...]

Road Trip

We’re going on a road trip for Easter, more specifically a Great Ocean Road trip :)
We’re ditching all our responsibilities, Easter masses will cope without us, families and friends can see us another time, the grass can grow and the household to do list can remain undone, cos we are having some time away from [...]

): I broke my arm again :(

A week or so ago, me and the scouts were going to the Bayswater Roller rink. At about 9 though, I fell and broke my wrist. It hurt and I was hysterical. The staff called the ambulance, when they got there they gave me the magic whistle to take away the pain and it made [...]

Vegie Patch

“Thanks clouds” I shouted to the clouds. Of course actually I don’t think I want to tell you about my vegie patch. Nah, just tricking. I thanked the clouds because they gave us lots of rain and our carrots are just starting to poke out of the ground.

Uncle Jase

While I’m already Uncle Jase to Bec and Liz, Mark and Bern’s kids, as of Wednesday Tuesday May 8 I’m now an official uncle. Mike and Rach had their first baby, after some reluctance to be born Rohan James Parlevliet entered the world at 12:17, weighing 3.4 kg, or 7lb 8oz in the old [...]

The Forgetting of Wisdom

I’m getting my wisdom teeth out tonight. They weren’t working anyway…
I’ll tell you all about it tomorrow maybe.
UPDATE : Friday - Not much to tell, it all went very smoothly, not much swelling, no bleeding. Taking Mersyndol Forte every three hours, and a Nurofen in between sometimes if it still hurts, but the pain [...]

Jamboree

Ashleigh is gone for two weeks to the 2007 Scout Jamboree. That’s an awful long time for our little girl to be gone, but it will seem like just a few moments to her I guess. There’s some awesome activities, shows and stuff, she is gonna be exhausted when she gets back. Lucky we’ve [...]

Never stops….

Ash broke her left arm on Friday. Mucking about at school, tripped over a friend and landed on her hand. Greenstick fracture of one bone, clean break on another, cast to just below her shoulder for four weeks at least. She’s sore but dealing with it OK. While we were waiting [...]

Connor Lost a Tooth

Connor lost his first tooth :

That’s the most concrete reminder that he is growing up. I don’t want to let him grow. Things like going to kinder, or going to school, and such things as these, these are all flexible markers of growth, placed arbitrarily by society and [...]

News of the Ears

Went for a hearing test today. Apparently my hearing is within normal range. Which is weird cos I was sure my right ear was a little rock affected, even before the spate of infections that ruptured my left. So clearly I am not hearing impaired, but listening impaired.
Also had a CT scan [...]
