sleepless nights

Sat Dec 16th
Well after a bit of baby sitting for Jaden , it was a long night and quite tiring! I keep forgetting how exhausting children can be! He was constantly into everything at the tender age of 7!

The dogs were exhausted too and he just would not let them sleep, Roxy was the only one who managed to keep up with him and lively until the moment he left and then she just flaked out!

We have managed to do a number of little jobs around the house, lights, bulbs, seeding grass, finished of taking the wall out etc.

We have a number of paperwork items to sort out to get funding back from the government who are kind enough to give you your tax (tamp duty back) when you purchase your first house in Oz!

We have been looking and applying for jobs and will wait and see what comes up!

Sorry blog is not so exciting or bubbly today but the dogs managed to wake me 7 times last night getting up to sort them out and then i gave up at 4 am and decided i may as well get up. Tim managed to sleep right through only waking at 3am. But slept through until 6.30am.

So while i was up i managed some surfing on the net looking for businesses to buy!

John Lennon came around to play table tennis and have a swim in the pool, it was fun, think Tim enjoyed playing with someone competitive! I managed to put up some xmas decorations as Tim has relented this week as i am feeling far from home with family and friends not around us this xmas and very teary.

We now have an advent calender up where we stick in our own chocolates :) and 4 wooden tree decorations around the newly knocked down wall dinning room! And finally some coloured fairy lights out side wrapped around the palm tree, which are solar powered.

The office is looking more like and office and Tim has managed to get an advert in the paper for the IT work so hopefully something will come in after xmas as hopefully lots of people will get PC's 4 xmas!

Was too tired to go garage sales today but Tim wanted to go so relented and we went, Tim found a load of LP's he wanted and we then went and got some dog mince from the butcher which the dogs love!

Had breakkie cooked from me when we got back and now going for a sleep as i have been up over 6 hours now and feeling very woozy!

Strange the temperature going up the closer we get to Xmas! just seems so back to front!

For the first time ever i will have a hot birthday! so we can have fun out side!! :)
