Shit I am old

I was reading a post in a forum that I frequent asking you what was your email address when you were in high school.

Well crap I am old because when I was in high school there was no www and there surely was no email, mobile phones had just come about and they were those ones you carried around in a bag. When I was in high school yes we did have computers but we still had rooms with typewriters for 'typing class' - cripes I am so old I cant even remember what the name of that suject was?

In fact just the other week we took the Hillbilly's to our local musuem and there was an old style typewriter on display - both SH and I drew a blank trying to explain to jnr what is was used for.

So anyway after putting not much thought into it I have come up with a couple of examples of what my high school email address might have been:

weekendbingedrinker@hotmail.com

netballbitch@hotmail.com

narkygossipbeearch@hotmail.com

My Happiness

At the moment my theme song could be My Happiness - yes Powderfinger and yes still lusting after Bernard.

I am just so damn happy. Life is good in fact apart from winning lotto and both Senior Hillbilly and I never having to work again it doesn't get much better than this. Yeah sure I still bitch and moan how 5 minutes after vacuuming and mopping my floors they are dirty again but hey I will get over that we are all in a good place.

I have replaced my love of Reese Peanut Butter Cups with Jasper Coffee Arabicas chocolate coated coffee beans, now at $12 for 100gm I can't really afford to keep this addiction up I assume it will be cheaper to take up cocaine.

I turn 34 (eeek) in a few weeks time I wonder if my 20 something self would have known that this is where I would be when I was 34. I might get on the band wagon and write myself a letter to my 18 year old self.

Stay tuned ..

p.s The Little One is just as delicious as ever. I swore I would never have another baby but by god I could have 10 more of her.

Come fly with me

I seriously think I live in one of the best places in the world.

My house is approx 800m as the crow flys to a beautiful clean beach.

I am surrounded by red soil small crop farmers, this means beautiful fresh cheap produce all year around.

Less than 2km away I can buy locally grown tomatoes, mushrooms, lettuce, rocket, cucumbers sweet potatoes and these beautiful lilliums...

Tell me where else you can buy a bunch of these beautiful flowers for $10. I bought them last Friday and I am still waiting on buds to bloom.

Life is good.

One for the 21st album

A brilliant capture of a unique little personality.

The 3rd Person

Ellie detests it when people talk in the 3rd person. If Ellie could slap said people, Ellie would be one happy girl.

Just for the record Ellie is not normally a violent person.

Just beautiful

Don't really need to say too much more do I.

Can you remember

When you first learnt to wink, whistle, click your fingers and do all those 'cool' things.

Well Jnr Hillbilly is at that lovely age were learning to do all of those things is on his mind. Totally funny to watch his wee face contorting and moving his head at a funny angle because we all know the angle helps close the one eye.

Just quietly between you and me I am not looking forward when he is trying to learn to whistle.

One Month Old Today

Wow can you believe it!!!

Where has it gone.

Well The Little One is officially one month old today and she is just as delicious as the day she was born.

I have never experienced the total bliss out of a newborn before - not that I didn't enjoy my other children but this just feels so different and I am totally loving it. Slack mumma doesn't have any weight stats as I have been a tad slack but I will hopefully get her weighed tomorrow.

Still feeding her but it has an ouch factor of about 20/10 so am introducing a few bottle feeds to give the ol (.)(.) a break and hopefully heal a bit quicker. Am still trying to figure out if my hanging the washing out sans my top and bra to get some sunlight (another recommendation) is of great pleasure or displeasure to the neighbours and the surrounding workmen..only time will tell I guess.

And on a crafty note another gift albeit a little late for a dear little girl who turned 3 last month. I am a just a tad late but I am sure she will love the postman bringing her another gift. Am much happier with the pj set this time and I rembered to do a pocket on the pants as well. Not so happy with the crayon roll as I used very thick ric-rac and it was very hard to sew on, so it looks a little tatty.
