kids....lots of kids.

12 February 2007

Monday.... nothing to report ...Im sitting here enjoying the blissful peace and quiet....Ahhhh!
Ive just got Mitch and Briony off to school....the poor things were dead to the world when I got home this morning..... they had about 20 minutes to wash, dress, eat and argue with each other lol .... and then they rushed for the end of the driveway where they are collected by the bus.

Brent growled something about letting him sleep for another half an hour...so Im about to remind him to get up in a minute...then its off to his course.

We had a house full again this weekend..... Im sure there is an invisable sign out the front the front....a sign that I cant see.....but is a beacon for kids....lol
Ian and I went out Saturday night..... a band 'Planet Square' were playing at the club....and we got a table together and went along....they are a fabulous band...we have been before.....they play lots of golden oldies from the 80's and are very easy to sing and dance too (oops...got a bit off track..lol)..... so the kids stayed home and invited a friend over each...... except Mitch's friend turned in to two...and Brent and Alex arrived home with Alex's Brother as well......and then we babysat cutie pie James from 8.30am on Sunday....so we had a house full.....aged 21,18, 17,16,16,16,14,13 and 18months .... now can you see why Im sitting here thinking peace and quiet is bliss!!! In actual fact they were all fabulous and no trouble..... I just wish we had a much bigger house....especially around the table.

Well Ive just yelled 'Brent' for the third time.....looks like Im going to have to risk my life and enter 'the room'..... he takes after his Mummy....he is not a morning person...lol ...... now make that five yells..... Im off to open the door..

... phew!...I survived.....
  • Well..... Im unbeleivably tired.....may need a Nanna nap today.
  • Im excited about the Boxx retreat......I still havent started these 70 name tags....Argh!
  • My house looks like a bomb exploded...it needs a huge clean...but I cant today....too tired.
  • Mitch still hasnt heard anything about his 'after school' job...even though he has been back in 6 times..... and 4 of those times has taken in another application and resume as they have lost them......only to be told they needed someone who wasnt playing footy.... (so decided he would forgo footy this year in preferance to work) but still to no avail..... Bahhhhhh!!
  • Brent just wanders out asking for money for petrol!! ....I mean he has sat around all weekend ...opted to sleep in...and now he remembers he needs petrol to get there .... oh..and a clean shirt.....bless him...lol
  • Im dizzy when Im tired....and my head is spinning this morning.
  • Im still waiting on the Scrapboxx DT announcement ....I have a friend who I soooooo badly want to get this position ....the wait it like chinese water torture.
  • I have a parcel at the Posat Office.....Ive had to wait all weekend...I got a parcel pick up card in my PO Box.... but of course that was at 6pm on Friday night...so it was closed.....I love parcels...whats the bet its only a layout back ....Im not expecting anything exciting.
  • Im looking forward to Loser tonight ...... I wonder who will go?...... Im not a Gerard fan at all...and Im not fond of Courtney either....both are way to self obsessed..... me me me me!!

Ooopps.....Im rambling.....Mardi x

  9. It sounds like you had fun on Saturday night. I've seen Planet Square (years ago though!) and they're good fun.
    I so have my fingers crossed for you in the Boxx competition. I hope you and your friend *both* win a spot.
