For the last few years I have not had contact with my direct family, one of my nephews would call me but life got busy and my family did their thing and I did mine.

Today I finally spoke with one of my sisters, who told me my Mum died. Three years ago on April the 9th.
I never got to say goodbye or to thank her for loving me and trying her hardest to give me what I needed, she was not good at it but I knew she tried her hardest to give us six kids all she could. I never got to tell her that my love for her was so deep and I was so happy to have her as my Mum, I didn't get to do that.

So tonight I am hurting for all of the above and because my Mum is no longer here.

Mum you are and always will be loved and missed.

RIP

I wonder how much of this we create ourselves and how much is projected on us. On Friday I was advised I have a four page supplement to produce for a magazine at work. It must have six hundred words per page. Hmm

Now this in itself isn't too tough, but mixed with the monthly newsletter and the three day strategy meeting and a week already fully scheduled with work, I am starting to feel the stress.

I got up early today and had breakfast at the local markets and then went to the local scooter shop only to find it has shut it's doors. So I traveled over to the other side of the city and ordered a drive belt for my scooter it will set me back $170, but I need it as I am losing power on the freeway. I am going to replace it myself, so fingers crossed the scooter doesn't fall apart after.

I just finished watching jindabyne on TV it has made me feel a little down. What can I say I am a big softy.

On the plus side this weekend I have managed to pick all the winners in the AFL so far. :)

I hope you all have a great weekend.

Well a lot has happened since my last post. I have been extremely busy working most days from 7am until after 9pm at night. Hopefully things will settle soon and I wont need to do so many late nights. Mind you at work I have made huge changes and all seem to be working for the better. I have not had much time to myself but today I did go and see the Doggies win :)

On the personal side, I am single again, we found the distance to much and with the economy the way it is, it was not smart to move.

I am not going to be sad I enjoyed the time we had and now I am just going to keep looking forward. I have started a savings plan so I can buy a house next year, I will have all debts paid off and enough for a deposit if I keep on the right track and don't spend just for the sake of it.

Thanks to all who wished me well in the new job, I must say I was surprised by all the extra work that I just didn't think about before. At the end of this month we have a three day marathon strategy meeting, can you tell I am looking forward to it.

Anyway I think that is enough for now I will try and be back more often,

I hope everyone had a safe Easter break.

From Monday next week I move into a new job at work, I applied for it and now I have it.
I have a conflict to resolve between several people , a heap of back work to clear and a team to motivate who seem intent on doing nothing really.

Hmmm

My weekend will be spent reading up on HR policies to make sure anything I do doesn't bite me later.

Wish me luck.

On the plus side, it is more pay and a management position which never hurts on your resume.

So much for my well thought out budget, I blew it in two weeks.

All I had managed to save is gone.

However I do have a hard-case attached to the scooter for carrying things and three new tech books.

Now to start again..sigh

I find my weekends go far to quickly and I find myself back at work and not really ready for it.
Maybe I need to work out my weekend like a work day and that way I will get more done.

Ah well, back to it.

I am exhausted, getting used to a new house and the noises at night is hard. I wake at the smallest noise.
It doesn't help that my house mate wakes in the middle of the night and makes such a ruckus.

She is deaf and obviously can't hear that she is banging doors and kitchen things around..sigh
She is also a diabetic so she gets up when her sugar levels are low.

I think I might start wearing ear plugs.

If you could be an expert in any one field, which one would you choose?

Lets see...doctor..nah...lawyer..nah

Sex Therapist ..Yeah !!!

Blahhhhhhhhh

That about sums it up !!
