It’s early Monday morning and I’ve been kicked out of bed by a snoring 3 yr old who climbed in at 5.15am. Rather than be subjected to that I decided to blog cause it has been ages since I’ve done that!

Things that are on my mind today are work related. I’m a bit down in the dumps about work it because it is not going as well as I had hoped or imagined it to be at this stage. It has been 3.5 months and things are slow. Some days (most days) I have no patients booked in, and then there’ll be the odd day with 10 bookings. I love it when it is thriving and I’m busy and the atmosphere is charged. I guess that it is getting me down because I am just bored. This can transcend into trouble at home, because I am so frustrated with my lack of busyness that I am cranky and crabby. Justin seems to cop it the most! The position is to be advertised soon (it was just a 6 month contract to get it up and running) and I am beginning to wonder if I will apply for it. I have been there from it’s inception, written all the policy and procedure and have great plans, but without the patients and actual day to day satisfaction ……I just dunno!

Yesterday the rain was drizzling and the girls were a bit stir crazy so I taught them how to finger knit. It was a hit. They went nuts with it and had metres and metres of long knitting all over the house. Kept them amused and contained for hours. Andrew came over for a play and he got in on it too. He was actually the fastest.

Holly has been hit hard by a flu this past week. She had all week off school, went Friday then was bad again over the weekend. I hope she wakes up chipper today! Both she and Meg made it into the PSSA for track events, after stellar performances at the Athletics carnival 2 weeks ago. I’m going to see if I can get the day off work to go and cheer them one. Hell, there won’t be much happening there so why not!

Here is a funny pic to cheer me up! This is Jess when she was about 5 months maybe. Wasn’t she cute!!

Have a great day. I’ve got my new boots and will be wearing them today. That is enough to keep me smiling! 🙂
