Supplies



and that's just to fill up the cracks.  Teenage boys x 4 involves some serious feeding. 
Tomorrow I have to bake muffins, plus make meatballs, while the boys load the car.
Then I have to buy fruit and bread when we arrive.
And if it rains, and they're stuck inside for too long, the food/ manchild ratio increases.
be afraid, be very afraid!!

Have you noticed....

that it's getting cloudier by the second.  It's my fault.  Sorry 'bout that.  We're due to head  over-the-border on Monday, so of course it stands to reason that the rain that hasn't appeared in the last 60 DAYS will appear the second we hit Tweed Heads.  Don't wash your car, dong hang out your sheets, and if you see anything going "two by two" head for higher ground, IMMEDIATELY.  That is all.

I PROMISE

that I shall be a better blogger from now on.  Looking back over the year to date just shows you how totally preoccupied I have been with everything in the universe except my poor neglected blog.  And I should keep up with it, since sometimes the only way I know what the hell is going on here is to read back a few weeks.  So, based on that principle, I've been living the high life under a large rock somewhere in the far outer reaches of Planet Mongo. 
Which I totally HAVEN'T.  I've actually been crazy busy chasing my tail and trying to re-order the universe in 15 minutes a day.  And, yeah....it's going pretty much how you'd expect, really.
SO....here it is.

Firstborn:

is in exam mode
has 40+ hours on his learners log book
wants to pick out a suit for Formal over the school holidays (!!!)
works most weekends
is on track for his 7th grade piano exam sometime next year
has decided to study veterinary nursing after finishing senior next year.
is STILL growing


Second Son:

is now homeschooling as well as transitioning to Cav Road for the start of year 8 next year.
is seriously kicking ass at drumming, and hoping to join the drumline program at Cav.
has grown two inches in two months.

FF:

finally built me my long awaited cat garden.
managed to find "the man from atlantis" so I could force the kids to watch it
found a new job but stayed with the old one 'cos they upped the ante (considerably)
dressed as a Fairy Penguin for the school trivia night, and totally rocked it!!


Yours Truly:

is still hanging on
spends much time growing small things in pots and protecting them from large things with fur.
wants an Ipad (just in case ff is reading) and another ragdoll (a seal point boy, please)

I SHALL RETURN!!!!
