Somethings not quite right

One of our chooks is having a few problems in the egg laying department ... she spent a night away from home not long ago and came back a different girl.... shes looking a bit better now but obviously the trauma is still evident in some areas...

It's chrissy season in the Yea household and the kiddies are busy writing cards ... Aaron had written his 5 best friends out without even asking for help with the spelling.... I'm so proud of him and his achievements this year ..... this photo is of his first few but overall he wrote 34 cards over two nights.





On the subject of Aaron ... here he is doing his 'Super Hero Work' impersonation .... Shane gave him his old diary on the weekend and Aaron fashioned an outfit to match .... pretty good copy I reckon ...





Movember is going along quite nicely but unfortunately Shane has decided not to have a haircut this month either..... looking a little to much like a 80's porn star for my liking...


Here are the photos of the camp at Tara I promised .... the weather wasn't great... I'm so glad we got a cabin instead of camping ...... but the weekend went really well and all the girls had a ball ...... Regan tried lots of things she hadn't done before and stayed up way past the adults telling all sorts of spooky stories with the older girls.... the drive was well worth it but I'm glad it's only once a year...





... and last but not least I've even managed to scrap a page ......



off to Sydney again this weekend to see John Cougar.... or is it John Mellencamp .... anyway off to a concert in Sydney ... will catch up later.

Well so much for that idea

I know it's been 5 days and nothing .... I, however, have an excuse ... I've been away on camp in Sydney with the Girl Guides and have come back to a home computer with no internet... when I get it sorted out I'll post some photos....

Busy week what with life and stuff. The kids Fete was last weekend and they had a ball, I was so proud of Regan she stayed all day with her friends ... I hardly even saw her..... Nov 2nd was funny hat day hence those pictures and lastly my Aug in review.... I've got to stop leaving it so long between posts ... as I seem to loose track of what I want to say... I am going to try harder to blog at least twice a week otherwise I end up with photos from ages ago and stuff that is irrelevant..... so..... I suppose you should check back in 3 or four days and see how I'm tracking. Oh yeah we did archery at girl guides last week... check out the strain on her face... all the girls managed to get somewhere close to the target but I was the only one that managed to bruise my arm by not holding it right!!...

Bad Memory

I've always known I have a bad memory.... things have a habit of sticking for only as long as needed and not a second longer... and in a lot of cases not even that long... whenever I am seeing a specialist for Aaron I have to take notes because I don't trust myself to remember the important bits I need to relay to Shane... When I was working on the STS Young Endeavour it was my job to teach a group of youth all about the ship, the names of all the sails and lines, where they all were and how they all worked... but now I can't even remember how long the ship is .... I have vague recolection of all the important things in my life but no stand out moment by moment recall and sometimes Shane will say .. remember when we . - . - and, well, quite honestly,no I don't. Where is this leading you ask? Well I have of late caught up (through facebook) with a couple of close friends that I had lost contact ... and as those that use it know you end up with one friend then another and so on and so on.... anyway I was online the other day and got in a conversation with a girl I went to school with, but I have absolutely no recolection of her at all... even after looking at photos of her there is just nothing... I kept up the conversation hoping that something would spark but again, nothing....
I have Aaron on a special fish oil suppliment to help with his concentration, maybe I should start popping a few myself.....

Anyway....these are a few wall hangings I have been doing for Regans friends for their birthdays..





and just some random photos of the last week or so...



yes Grandma they still love your teddys... they are getting quite good at pool too!!!








Till next time.....
