What's Up



This week has been one of mixed emotions.
For John it has been tedious as he counts down the days 'till school finishes for the year. On the plus side all his report cards have been done, on the down side the children have very little work left for the year to keep them busy.

Tiffani has been in end of year assessment mode with test, exams and assignments due. She studies less than she ought but still churns out plenty of A's so I guess I can't complain ( I do complain though - it seems extremely unfair that she gets good grades with very little effort, when I was in school I worked like a dog and still sucked).

Isaac is bored, he has finished for the year but his friend Josh hasn't. He has played and replayed his many computer and Play Station games and clock watches until Josh gets home from school. He spent the last week building a really cool robotic mouse from a kit I bought him. It functions in part. We have to pull it apart to realign the wheels because it goes in circles at the moment (at least it goes)

Joel is mega bored. He is also finished and nagging me to cook with him and do craft. We are going to start baking Christmas gifts tomorrow for friends at church. Should be fun and probably more than a little frustrating for me.

I have been reading when I can, I started a book club a few months ago and it has taken off really well. We have our next get together on Tuesday so I'm trying to finish 'Chocolat' a wonderful book by Joanne Harris. I was saddened by the mining tragedy at Pike Creek but relieved none of my brothers were involved. Work is going well and I am trudging slowly through my TAFE course, hope to be finished by January.

That's all 'till next time.

Love & Prayers

Hello Family & Friends

I have revamped our blog. It is now a place to keep family and friends up to date with our family comings and goings. I will try to update once a week and include lots of photos. This way, those of you who live over the ditch can keep up to date with our fairly boring life.
