What's new? Not much really!
We have been busy not with anything major just the usual life of a busy mum. School, playgroups, work, trying to do abit of study.
Although i will say we have been abit stressed out again with family issues, certain members of our extended family really need to become adults! But i wont get into that...... It can be a tad draining.
I have a few projects on the go at the moment. Going through all of our video tapes, putting them onto a hard drive so that we have some spare tapes to take away for xmas.
Also making scrapbooks for the kiddies, all of their past craft creations.
And my general scrapbooking, which i have let slip behind, but i am determined to get on top of it :)
Also i am starting to think about Christmas presents, what to buy etc and i had better go and start buying/ layby. I have decided i am not going to do Christmas cards this year, people are going to get a Christmas email. Otherwise it is too expensive and people most chuck them out anyway.
No major weigh loss to speak off, still gradual, i can feel it in my clothes. Kicking up the Low GI eating more this week and i have an exercise bike now, so while watching Oprah when the kids are asleep i will be working out on that in addition to my half an hour walk in the mornings. I am also thinking about incorporating some weight training, but slow and steady.
My next goal is not to have the muffin top! HHAHHAA I am glad i can laugh at myself now.
Until next time, adure!

Computers
I love having my lap top back in operation. Like today i can sit in the lounge room, watch the V8 race at bathurst and also check what is going on on the net. Paul fixed it, new keyboard as i spilt beer on my last one and it stopped working. I had to use a plug in one, big and bulky. My battery also didn't work, so i had to have it plugged into wherever i went. So new battery and new keyboard. I just need a some Ram to make it go faster.
We have also fixed the car, well Paul did :) Our sub tank was never working and Paul and my dad decided to fix it last Saturday! Wohoo it would have cost $1200 or more to get it fixed. Clever Paul brought the parts and spent a day on it and it only ended up costing us $400. Big saving and Paul thinks he is very clever now!
I haven't been on the computer that much as of late, as it is boring. facebook sucks, nothing ever exciting happening, or should i say no one messaging me :(
But its good i have been a bit of a social butterfly, playgroups nearly ever day of last week. Its good, but i also think i need to find a balance as i need some time at home through out the week. Otherwise things just don't get done, washing, general cleaning.
Don't get me wrong my house is generally very clean, things put away etc because i run a business from it and i have a certain standard that is has to be kept. But that is just the visual ares, lounge room, kitchen etc. the rest my room and the kids room tend to get to a point that you cant even walk in the door, clothes and just general stuff everywhere. I haven't cleaned the bathrooms for over a week and they need to be done. So i might get stuck into that this afternoon maybe, if i don't have another beer while watching the bathurst. GO FORD! Ok now i am rambling.
Count down is on to our holiday, 11 weeks until we go to 1770! Paul and i are working very hard at the moment. I have two new children starting care, and Paul is pretty much doing 7 days a week so we can save up and have a well deserved holiday.
So also 11 weeks to go until i loose about 20kg! 7 down so far, not that most people notice. I don't blame them as i have only gone down half a size. It is so so slow but i am getting there and i am so determined i am going to do it this time. yay me.
