So after an awful Monday, I had a wonderful Tuesday at a training course! It was enough to renew my spirits (surprising, no?) and on Wednesday and Thursday had a much better attitude. Lots of breathing and trying not to think to much really helped!!
And yesterday I was home with the kidlets.
Since Lil started school I've not had both of them for a full day - it was nice! Primarily because I looked at it in terms of what I could do to make it fun for them - rather than trying to get my stuff done. We went down to the school carpark and Lil showed me how she learned to ride her bike (on Tuesday with my Dad). She was pretty good! Then we went for coffee and a play in the big mushroom at the Belconnen Markets with my sister. Lil ran into a kid from her school who is known as the 'naughty boy'. I didn't know it was the NB. They played nicely and laughed and had a great time. Until it was time to go and he yelled 'bye bye f**king head' - which is his hallmark farewell. Then I knew it was the NB... Otherwise he seemed lovely. I'm loathe to label him a naughty boy, because, well, people in glass houses and all that.
And now its the weekend again. I was just cruising through my blogs and my head nearly exploded when I saw that one of my embroidery pieces was featured on Craft! So hello if you've come by from there. Ironically, I made the picture when I was cleaning out my embroidery floss, which Nana had gifted to me because she no longer used it. Then Nana asked for it all back and I couldn't say no because it was all hers... so I'm not doing much embroidery at the mo! I did do the embroidery button swap over at feeling stitchy and did these for Quinne
And she sent me this lovely package:
Anyhoo, I'm off to visit a friend that just had a bub (great reason to start a baby cardy) and then to Mum's for dinner. Enjoy yours!
P.S The roses are from my inlaws garden. They not only look stunning but they smell divine!

Yay for flowers and feeling good. The NB sounds rather naughty, but um his farewell greeting cracks me up just a little - unless of course he was farewelling The Smurf and then I might feel differently.
1. I'm glad you're feeling better than you were the other day.
2. You're coming to BO tomorrow, right?? Gosh I hope so!
3. Kids are funny, but I would have given NB a clip around his ear. but then, I'm not a parent, so ...
4. Bloody Nana. Obviously an Indian Giver!
I'm glad your week was mostly good, and congrats on being featured on Craft!
NB has quite the mouth! I would have struggled not to laugh in shock.
Allow me to put my parenting and model citizen hat aside (wait, where did I put that hat?? anyway...) and say that "bye bye f**king head'" is possibly the funniest farewell I have heard in ages! but then I remember it was delivered by a school child and it kinda loses its charm....
