Well another week that was is posted so time too start the next one.

Today the girls came for lunch for Jessica’s birthday, Leo was unmedicated so was a hand full but that meant he ate. I was glad to see them all leave.

I offered to make a potato bake for Tasha but it did hurt my back.

Jessica asked if I would go to Kmart with her tomorrow, Leo needs new school shoes.

Monday morning I slept in till 8.40am after I got up and dressed with Tasha’s help. I had two eggs for breakfast then I rang Glendale shopping centre and booked a scooter for 11am. I then rang Jessica, she had forgotten about going Kmart.

However, we still went Tasha drove me to Jessica’s in my car and she was in a mood about it.

I am worried about Natasha she is run off her feet taking care of Colin. I am worried they are taking advantage of her.

Jessica drove my car home and will bring it back tomorrow.

Tuesday I was up at 6.30am another cold morning, Natasha came and helped me get dress.

Jessica arrived around 9.15am with the car, I have asked Tasha if she would take her home.

However, at 10.45 she decided to walk home because she thought I was in a snappy mood. She was wrong I was fine.

This was because she spilt her drink over papers I had on the table, as well as over the medication containers. I got up to clean it up while she did nothing.

Then a man came to the door with Natasha on his phone, I told Jess to talk to her and she yells and say what, try hello. Natasha was out and he needed to get into her house. Jess took him up and let him in, he took a photo of the broken item and left.

Leo is here tonight.

At 4.15am on Wednesday morning, Leo came in wanting more night time medication, heard Papa telling him no as he will need to get up in a few hours.

When I got up he was awake but by 6.45 he was asleep again. I had to wake him at 7.50am.

Jessica called in to pick up Leo’s stuff.

I slept in Thursday morning to 8.04am I woke at 4.04am with a headache, I applied Vicks to my forehead and went back to sleep. The headache was still there when my alarm went off a 6am.

Tim home early from work, had him ring Rankin Park Day Hospital about the bars in the bathroom. Sara will ring me on Monday.

Leo here tonight.

Friday morning Tasha & I went to get mum & Dawson but when we arrived Sue was there and we ended up taking Dawson and Sue drove mum.

Jessica rang at 7am and said she didn’t know when or if she would be able to meet me at Charlie.

Thankfully she was able to meet me.

I had a bad start to the day I was shaking so bad that I had to have a smoke before I went to Charlie.

Jessica brought me more cookies.

Saturday now and a pretty average day, Tim is off. Natasha brought down sheets for me to wash as well as a doona which Tim put on the line instead of in the dryer.

This afternoon Tim at last cut my hair.

NATASHA & TIM

Another week over another week starting. Today aka Sunday was spent answering letters 5 in total and then I had to do the weekly medications. Jessica and Leo called in to pick Leo’s medication for the next week, she wasn’t feeling good and was somewhat snappy with me.

Monday morning started out cold with a temperature of 11°c so I didn’t go to aqua because the cold water really makes my knees sting with pain. Tim took the car to work.

Tuesday is cold and wet it was only 6°c when I got up this morning, Tim took the car to work again.

We have had very strong winds on and off all day, so Tasha got the boys out of school a little early, didn’t bother me as I was having a nap when Leo arrived.

Wednesday morning was cold and wet still, I made Leo change his school pants this morning.

I had to go back to bed at 9.30am, I slept for 90 minutes and felt better when I woke up.

Thursday is another cold but dry day, at around 7.15am I rang Jessica to see where they were and she said Tasha was going to pick Leo up from here house on her way to the school. I said it would be nice if someone told me.

Tim off today he had doctor’s appointment at Belmont hospital, just to get the results of his colonoscopy, all is good but he will need to have another in 3yrs time.

Today is also Jessica’s 30^th birthday she was born at 4.15am so Tim & I took her out for lunch at the Eastern Tiger restaurant.

Friday I had to go shopping alone as Jessica had a doctors appointment to get a flu shot. However she was given a script to get it and neither of the two chemist she went to had it in stock.

Friday night Jessica & Leo were invited out for tea along with her friend Kim who she works with and her son, to the home of one of the children they drive to from school. I thought I might have Leo for the night as Jessica thought he may not want to go and she wasn’t going to force him.

Saturday now, I didn’t have Leo last night as he went with his mum to the dinner and had a good time, as Kim’s son also went and Leo is good friends with her son.

We did have Leo all day today while Jessica was at work he spent a lot of time out the backyard playing with dirt/mud. He is never any trouble when he is here.

Sunday at last, having the girls and grandchildren here for lunch for Jessica’s birthday. When I went to get dressed this morning my left knee gave out and I ended up on the floor but thankfully the house phone was on the bed and I was able to ring Tasha for help.

Well it is Monday again and today a little about the meaning of the name Joanne or Jo-Anne/

Joanne (alternate spellings Joann, Jonn, Johann, Johanne, Jo-Ann, Jo–Anne) is a common given name for females, being a variant of Joanna, the feminine form of John; derived from the Latin name Johanna with the meaning in Hebrew of “God is gracious”.

Joanne

A cool girl, generally generous, smart,sexy, and funny. into expressing herself through music, art, and or acting. fun to be around, and even though she may not know it, she’s loved by everyone. People who hate her, hate her out of jealousy. She’s very amazing, easygoing, a little bookish, but can also be very sexy when she wants to. Usually very happy and positive with a little ADHD, she is always ready to bounce back on bad times

The key to happiness belongs to everyone  of earth

who recognises simple things as treasures of great worth

He paints the lily of the field,  perfumes each lily bell;

If  he so loves that litte flowers,

I know he loves me well

Hello everyone, how is everyone I am well it is a month today since dad died . So let’s chat about grief everyone grieves in their own way.

I haven’t cried as much as I thought I would for me I have felt numb. I think of dad every day, as I have a lot of photos of dad around my house.

Mum things of dad as being in hospital and she talks to him a lot and each night says goodnight to him before going to sleep, she reaches out and touches his side of the bed.

I am not sure how my siblings are coping, I know my brother has been to the cemetery most days, I have not for two reasons one I am unable to just jump in the car and go over also I just haven’t been able to drag myself there it hurts too much.

I know there is something called grief counselling but not something I know of anyone having.

Love is what you’re been through with somebody

Good morning a coolish day in my opinion although Natasha & Tim think it’s cold.

Do you eat lollies?

Do you have a favourite lolly?

I do both eat them and have a favourite, I like spearmint leaves and fruit sticks. However, the spearmint leaves I like are the ones you always bought years ago, many of the ones you buy now days are not as nice. In fact the only store that sell the ones I like is Woolworths.

Fruit sticks are like musk sticks but are in many different flavours they are hard to find, they are sold at Kmart & Target stores I rarely go to.

As a child I used to like fags and cobbers both of which you don’t see now days.
