Hmm not sure what is going on with my hips lately... very sore and making it uncomfortable to walk :(

It has been a hot and humid weekend here this weekend.

Sian played her first ever game of netball. It was so cute seeing the girls out there giving it a go. I am sure as the season goes on they will get the hang of it a little more.
She also scored herself a bee sting today on the finger. It seems that she is not allergic as such but she did have a reaction. Her finger was swollen and moving down her hand. To the point that she couldn't bend it. But an icepack put on it and some antihistamine and all seems ok. It started getting a little puffy again tonight after the antihistamine wore off. We will see how it is in the morning I guess.

Brad's soccer training is in full swing at the moment. Building up to the season starting.
He went to a sleep over birthday at a friends place Saturday night. I was not impressed at all when I found out they went to bed at 3 am!! But such is life. He or maybe I should say WE are going to be paying for it all week. tonight his eyes were hanging out of his head and he still comes out of his room saying he can't sleep. I think that might have been overtiredness some how.

My day today was nice but sweaty and blah. Fixed the taps in the main bathroom finally. :) Now the kids can go back to using that one instead of ours. Makes life easier I must say. I overhauled the kids rooms... alot more still to go, but a start. Moving around their beds and new bedding to go with it.

Washing in and out rather quick today with the windy hot weather. So that was a bonus.

Gareth is helping out by learning how to use the washing machine.... which also means me learning to appreciate his help without being too critical if he is not doing it exactly the way I would like it to be done :P

I have had my acrylic nails taken off for now. I will give them a break for awhile and see how it goes. I am not liking the way my hands look without them, but I am loving the feel of not having them on. I will see if I can get them looking nice and healthy the way there were way back when. (pre moving out of home and pre kids) :)

Work is still the same and busy as normal and only looking to get busier, with them combining offices with another part of the company. Also shutting down another interstate office/ agency that helped us out.

New girl starts on Thursday this week. Fingers crossed all goes well there as it looks like I am designated trainer again. It comes with the territory I am guessing. I am a little disappointed that the girl I have been training for the last couple of months seems to think that work is a little bit of an inconvenience and seems to spend more time away than she is there. I am not sure how much longer that she will last. We really need people that are going to be committed to the job.

Well I guess I had better head to bed and rest my brain for tomorrow. New Day New Week New Start.
Positivity is the key. I just need to remind myself of that more often..

6 weeks until we get the car :D Provided they are running to schedule :D

Having a great time with day trips to photogenic places :)
Totally busy at work still .... a little short staffed - not helping at all

weight loss is a little up and down at the moment. I have had a bad few days. But time to get back on track ;)
