Recap

Not much at all happening really, hence the reason i've not updated in a while. Just day to day stuff.

i think poor Miles was rather bored today, did have Playgroup and story time on this morning but i cancelled it as i had to get a few things done and, well just couldn't be bothered really! Plus im on craft duties at Wednesdays playgroup tomorrow so needed to get a couple of bits for that too as well as go to an appointment at he apple store - went to get my phone fixed as the speaker phone wasn't working and scored a brand new iPhone 4 for freeWhooo Hoooo!

So just had a little tidy up at home this morning, pottering around and the off to the shops this afternoon, paid a little off my Xmas lay by and went to th iPhone store for my appointment, so not much to stimulate poor Miles, so he has been bored silly today!
I guess shopping centre and entertaining yourself at home isn't much fun for the kids, but its a very rare day when we have days like that.

i did get the stamps and ink pads out for them, and that entertained them for half an hour or so.

Yesterday was fun though, walked up to music class - a 6km trip! Caught the bus back, because i could not manage that again! Miles though the bus was great fun, we dont ever really catch busses so he enjoyed that.
Then in the afternoon we planted potting plants that we had bought a couple days ago in some big pots i had lying around and played with the water hose and poor Greta got drenched my accident! oh i wish i had my camera it was so so funny!

We had a trip to the beach last weekend, that was great fun.

Picked up my new Jeep - yes i FINALLY bought  a new car!  a Jeep Cherokee -still trying to work out the fancy sound system its a hard drive so no CD's just load the music on.  Guess they are all like that now but my car was 5 yrs old so CD's when we got that still.

its an Automatic, my first ever! took a while to get used to but im getting there - keep feeling for he clutch! But Jonathans (did i say he has a new car too - and is selling his motor bike) is manual, so i can drive that and hope i dont forget how to drive one!

Still losing weight, im 8.5kgs down :) so my old clothes are feeling so much better, they were all tight and uncomfy before, so thats great - fitting into so much stuff i wasn't before :)

Miles has to go back for an earing test as he failed his last one in his left ear.

Did a big shed clean up over the weekend at Playgroup, that was actually ok, grafted hard but was nice to be with the other mums and had a laugh.. looking forward to the next Playgroup meeting - although i have to chair so not sure about that!

Erm.. not much else really...

Got Fairies tickets for next month. 

All of Christmas is organised i think.  Got the pressies for everyone on lay by - very organised this year.  just got to get J's pressie but i know what im getting him so will get onto that soon.

Need to think of a birthday pressie though.

Most likely be boring socks and undies from me this year ! we are still broke so no money for anything but practical stuff im afraid :(

shouldn't be too much longer though - 2012 should see us get straight.

Mum in law is coming to visit in Jan so having a week away with her, then in Aug we plan a big trip to Fraser island and then J wants to go to Broken hill in Dec for his birthday next yr and my parents will be over for a visit so no doubt a big 2 week trip with them too..

SO a few trips planned and thats about it really - up to date!
