Sunday

Soon it will be time to leave for little e's basketball game. This will be their third game and they'll likely be playing with four again. They only have five players on the team. Last weekend they defeated a team with 12 players. Yes, they won playing only four on the court.

Someone on the other team wasn't happy about losing 27 to 8 and they reported the game to the league. Turns out you have to forfeit if you don't have at least five players in the game. Mind you, they had five players suited up for the game but the fifth sat on the bench due to a sprained ankle.

This game will be another forfeit but the girls want to play anyway. I want them to kick butt with four players again.

12-13-14

That should be lucky right?

So a busy Saturday in the sunshine. Went to the Sugar Plum Faire at Emory's school and T had her last training session. Cal is off with his dad doing some type of filming thing.

Tomorrow one basketball game to go to in the afternoon. Hopefully we can be full slugs until then. We may have to do some chore stuff like groceries.

Have a good night and enjoy your updates.

Peace, Health and Happiness.

Counting down....

It's been a long week and it's technically not over for me. Tomorrow I'll attend my final training class. I'm happy that it's been very informative. It's much harder to stay focused and awake when all the instructors do is read the text to you.

All of us just have to make it through next week and then we get a small vacation. I know the kids are likely counting down to Christmas day. I'm counting down to the first day I can sleep in.

Jabs again.

Snow's not the only one who's had her jabs this week.

I got my 'flu jab on Monday after work. My arm is a little bruised and a little sore. But at least I won't get the 'flu. Not that there seems to be any around at the moment anyway.

What with that and my HepB booster last week, (if you work in an industry that sometimes requires you to clear waste ground ready for re-use there's always the danger of needle-stick. Precautions against HepB are always sensible), my immune system is working so hard that I'm dog-tired when I get home from work. Right now I'm having so much trouble concentrating that I might not even know my name if asked.

See you next week. Goodnight and may your God/s go with you

More Jabs

Snow update - she's had a second - different strength - jill-jab. We're hoping that one works. If not she'll be scheduled for a spaying operation. Not ideal at her age but better than the alternative. Keep your fingers crossed.

Late

Running late tonight. I stayed late for work and E had to get little e from basketball practice. We ended up having pizza instead of my planned dinner as a result.

Finally getting around to the update...sorry there's not more. I know Ze will have a lot for you tomorrow.

Another Sunday Night

Busy day and evening with plenty of chores to do. I think the upcoming holiday creates a bit more work until it fully arrives. The kids return making the week ahead also very busy.

Tonight there are a few more updates, please enjoy.

Peace, Health and Happiness.

One Down, One to Go

My class today was actually worth attending. I needed to go for the certification but, surprisingly, it was also a good class. It's always nice when the instructors are actually active in the topic they're teaching.

The rest of my day holds a basketball game and possibly a few chores. Poor E has been home washing clothes, walking the dog and getting the tree up all by her lonesome. Time for me to join the fun.

TGIF

Really this time of year I am as busy at home as I am at work. Tomorrow T has an all day class and I will drag the tree out and get it up with lights. Sunday we can put those ornaments on it. Early evening after picking up T we will head to Capital Hill to go see a basketball game of our daughters. We will come home and walk the doggie, feed the cats and do the update.

Busy weekend for sure. Hope y'all enjoy the updates.

Peace, Health and Happiness.

*yawn*

I'm pooped and can't think of anything even moderately interesting to blabber on about so I'll just let you get to reading.

Nearly Christmas!!

The tree is up and decorated. The decorations are up. Overseas cards have been written and posted. Domestic ones are in the process of being written. Some presents have been bought and wrapped. Christmas Songs compilation cds playing.

And the mince pies have been started.

In fact yesterday I ate a whole box - six pies. Today I had a thumping headache all day. A sugar-hangover. Serves me right, I suppose. I'm not used to eating that much rich, sugary, food-type stuff all in one go.

I'm limiting myself to two a day in future.

But... It's beginning to look a hell of a lot like Christmas... **bounces**. Yay!! Christmas!!

And of course there's the NORAD Santa Tracker.

And I've got I Believe in Father Christmas as a earworm. Great.

But... Christmas!! **bounces some more**. I love Christmas.

See you next week. Goodnight and may your God/s go with you.

Brain Fart

There was an update here yesterday. Whether Yahell lost the notification or E had a moment of foggy-brain and forgot to post it, I have no idea. But if you want to check out what was in it go here.

It's turning a bit nippy here, too.

And Snow's jill-jab doesn't seem to be having any effect, so I'll have to have a chat with the vet and see what I can do next.

Chilly Week Ahead

Another cold day coming to an end. I was too lazy to start a fire tonight, so we will have to bundle up in the house. One day down and another 4 to go for me.

Hope your Monday was splendid. Enjoy the updates.

Peace, Health and Happiness.
