Ears, fridges,ipods and multibirthdays

Hello dear readers (assuming anyone is readin this drivel LOL) Have had a busy week and I wanna lie down! Saturday was a big trip to Palmy and we left the kids with Dad and WSM and went fridge shopping - ours died months ago and was gonna cost nearly $500 to fix so we decided to get a new one. Managed to talk Peter into letting me get an ipod for my bday on saturday as well. Also got some much needed walking shoes so I can get back into walking, bought the Eskimo's bday present and picked up the kids xmas presents off layby (remember the mad shopping trip to Kmart??)

Anyway I am now the happy owner of a shiny new stainless steel fridge which is arriving on saturday, a cool hot pink ipod nano and have a kitchen full of healthy food for my new lifestyle change. Had huge dramas with said ipod after spending 5 hours downloading the itunes program discovered at midnight that it isn't compatable with ME so had to spend another small fortune to upgrade to XP. Spent all day yesterday on the puter burning everything on to disc and installing XP. But the ipod is now up and running - sooo need more cds tho. I bludged some off Kelly and discovered I quite like Gwen Stefani and the Black Eyed Peas - go figure! Need to start buying cds as mine are sooooo old and outdated.

Tuesday I had to take Q to the dr as he had an ear infection again, number 7 this winter I believe. I asked the gp to refer him to the specialist but he wanted to wait till he has an infection in the summer. After multiple ear infections each winter i wasn't having it so rang the specialist yesterday and he went to see him this morning. So the upshot is he needs grommets and his adenoids out so is on the list and hopefully in 4-6 months he won't have all these problems. So I am glad I decided to get proactive and do something about it myself.

A busy few days ahead, I have finished my BTP for the last DT I am entering and have just got to get the LOs done so hope to have them done this weekend. I am having dad and WSM out for tea on sat night for my birthday and they are bringing my new fridge out (saves $100 odd for delivery!), monday I have to make Q's snake bday cake ready for his party at playcentre on tuesday and he starts school officially on Wednesday WOOHOO!! When i will have time to finish this scrappin I dunno, I have 2 Cjs to get done too ARGH!

Never mind it will soon be scrap camp and I will have a whole weekend to get lotsa scrappin done!! So much to work on too and no new supplies which is a bummer.


I was gonna show you my latest pics of the kids but the toolbar where you add pics is missing from this blog - who has it?? give it back!!

We are awaiting a couple of babies at the mo, my SIL Sharon is due shortly and MaryAnne at playcentre is overdue, wonder if my new nephew or neice will add to the Oct birthdays in our family? Somehow we managed to fit in mine, MIL is monday and Q is on wednesday, I am picking this bubs will arrive at either end LOL

Ahh well spose i had better go cook some tea. Hopefully will find out what happened to the pic function on here and add some more photos.
