Playing catch up

I've decide to *try* and post twice a week. Most likely Tuesdays and Thursdays as these are my home days now. With Will at 3yo Preschool in the afternoons it should give me time to post something.

Ha ha ha let's see how long that will last snickers all!


In case you missed them in the galleries that I post in, here are my CT LO's for the month of February!

My little track and field star

On the weekend we had the Little Athletics Southside Carnival. AJ competed in 5 events, 100m, 50m, 70m, discus and long jump. We were very proud of him. In his age group he placed 7th overall in the discus, missing out in a place for the regional carnival by one; 9th overall for the 100m, 9th overall for 50m, ran the final in the 70m and finished 7th overall; and finished 6th in the long jump placing him in the team for the regional final for under 7 boys long jump.

Here's a couple of action shots! Oh and that funny blue thing - that's the discuss ;)


I used these cute little cluster frames from Tara Dunstan Designs, they can be found at the pickleberrypop shop under Clustered Frames !

This one's for you, Amanda!

I was chided by "Odd Job Amanda" for being way too slow in my blog postings .... life sure does get in the way of a blog post!

So what has happened recently in the life a damsel like me? I now have two boys at school. Will is at 3yo preschool for 5 hours a week and I *think* I start work on Monday. Woah - yep work - the hardest thing was gettng my CV together and making it sound interesting considering I haven't been in full time paid work since 2000 and casual work since 2004. And of course trying to find a referee who was still contactable. In the end I was able to find one plus I have also asked the teacher in charge of the preschool to be a character referee. It is now a waiting game - my CV has been looked at and I heard that the HR manager was suitably impressed (phew) and final decisions are being made.

In between I have been scrapping (well der), being mum the taxi driver between schools and Little Athletics events and play dates and doing all those endless chores (washing, ironing, cleaning). Oh and I had a birthday too ;)

Is that enough now Amanda?
