A bit of this and that and a story
Firstly -
i would like to point out to those people who hunt down blogs just to leave negative messages to others - that frankly i am not interested in what you have to say.
I am very open to constructive criticism, but to be able to give me constructive criticism, really – you have to know me. If you did however know me. You would know that i am more of an upbeat peorson than a negative one. So – negative comments will be deleted.
I thought i would start off with the negative stuff so that hopefully it can only get better.
Back -
I went to my first back clinic class yesterday. I am sure that people down the street thought that we had all been beated as we walked out of the class in worse shape as we walked in. I am sure that in a few weeks it will pay off and my back will be more flexable. I do however think that it will be good to kick start my excersizing and diet routine ready for Christmas. Yes people Christmas. I had to say it. Well its only 3 months away and already i am getting excited about it.
This year we are only giving presents to the children in the family. Which is good for bank balances all round since our family doubled last year with us all popping babies out.
I am yet again making presents. And since i have learnt to knit i am thinking maybe some hats with little ears?. We will see. I was going to make little cuddlys but the pattern was too hard for my brain and talent.
At the moment i am getting on with the blanket that i am making for my girlie. So far i am on my 5th strip and not doing to badly as i am getting a bit faster.
Angels -
My street angels training also started. It was brilliant. A very good police officer gave us some self defence training. No one should now mess with me. Ha!.
It is just incase we have to deal with some drunks that want to grab our arm or try and hit us. It is worst case so i am hoping it wont come to that.
The uniform seems cool. Will top and some really warm jackets which will keep me nice and snug in the Christmas months.
Next week -
My hubby has two weeks off. I am looking forward to it as well as not. The first week we are hoping to sort out the house. Maybe even do some decorating. The second week we are hoping to go away. Not sure yet. Depends on the spondulies. The not being that fact that when we dont go away we will be living in each others pockets and if he doesnt help out with the girl then its not much of a holiday for me.
I really think that sometimes men think that us girlies just do nothing at home.
Here is a little story for you. -
Story -
Peter came home from work. He couldnt put his car onto the drive as his three children we sitting on it. There was sweet wrappers and crisp packets throw all over the front garden and the children were covered in mud with grass in there hair and chocolate all over thier faces.
The front door was wide open so Peter walked in.
First he came upon the kitchen. The bin was knocked over with cereal and milk all over the floor. The fridge had been left open and the tap running.
In the lounge the dog was sleeping on the new sofa. He has weed and pooed all over the cream carpet.
Peter walked up stairs.
The bathroom had toilet paper everywhere and Peter thought that he had been broken into.
He then walked to his bedroom.
Inside was his wife, she was lying in bed reading a book as happy as can be. She looked up from her book and simply said -
You always wonder what i do all day – Today i didnt.!!!



Someone left a negative comment? I’ve received one before, I would have thought I’d get more to be honest. The thing I hate about the negative comment is that they are always anonymous. If they have something nasty to say, why hide behind an anonymous comment?
oh .. stop saying ‘Christmas’!
Hey TT. Thats exactly it. I hate the anon thing. It was a personal dig at me also. Obviously scared that i would hunt them down if they put thier real name. Stupid.
Ohhhh your not gonna be a bah humbug are you. Come on. Its time to start planning. Either that or it creeps up so quickly and scares you.
As my daughter would say Fab… and I do scold her for this… “Tell them to bugger off!” ;o)
)
Yep, hit delete and move on, you did the right thing. Some people just like to try and porvoke you and to be honest, if you are anything like me you will not be led!
Enjoy the two weeks with your man! That will be great fun I bet! Proper family time… Love the story. Love your stories.
(hugs)
anonymous negative comments – I think you’ve put it well; if it’s constructive and there is a point you’ll take it on board; but if it’s just someone doing the equiv. of kids in the playground calling each other petty, pointless names and teasing for no real reason.
CHRISTMAS!!!!
I’m a little excited about it, I’ve no idea why; I’m usually a bit sad around Christmas – but I’ve been re-arranging my lounge so I’ve a spot for my tree – back by the window; like it was the first year I was here (it seemed to work well, although sometimes my cat ended up as an extra fairy on it!!) I love your idea about knitting gifts; I used to (and may do again) make special Christmas stockings/socks for my girls and then fill them with little bits and pieces (I’d buy a pair of socks and then cut out felt shapes and sew them on)
Exercise et al – I think whatever it is you do, the first couple of sessions always leave you feeling a bit like a used punchbag; but it doesn’t take too long for your body to get used to it. Good luck with it – the secret is always to “keep it up and do it regularly”
Loved the story
Whatever you get up to, enjoy your couple of weeks with the hubby
Have a good evening
(oops didn’t finish my first thought – distracted by Christmas
) …
after “teasing for no real reason” please add something that makes sense
(I think “then it’s not called for, very immature and has no real aim but to upset or hurt” works)
Don’t talk to me about negative commenters…! Grrrrrrrr!
Hope you have a lovely week – get away. Preferably to the sun! (Tell him the heat will be good for your back! )
i HATE anonymous commenters – if you’re going to leave one, at least have the guts to say who you are!
to whoever left a mean comment – feck off and go spoil your own fun.
re christmas – i cant wait. since i have heaps of time im going to make loads of stuff. shep and i planned to do each other stockings with a spend limit to be strictly adhered to. otherwise i will be making sweets and chocs and possibly even the little boxes to put them in with ribbons n stuff.
re the peter story – oh how true!!!
Love that last story. So true!
I got an ugly comment one time and it upset me so badly. Why do people say things to your blog they wouldn’t say to your face? It affects you the same.
