More of an effort

Okay, I've decided to try and blog at least once per week. Just to record whats going on. It's almost Christmas (yeah Shelley... why don't you state the fricking obvious) and I don't know where the year has gone.

Things have changed BIG time for me. Met someone.. sigh.. its a nice feeling to feel "spesh" to someone. We've been together for a few months and its going fabulously!

First day back at school for the final term of grade three for Zak yesterday. He is growing up so quickly :(. Didn't get off to a good start for him - he took his footy tazo's (against his wise mum's advice) and of course got them confiscated for a week. Parent-teacher interview on Wednesday so hopefully I'll hear the "real story" of the confiscation then!

Little athletics has started again - and again - its fricking hard work! But Zak loves it.. and thats all that matters eh.

We had the soccer carnival back in September. Was a great day. Our team scored one goal in the whole three games.. Zak scored it. So for the season our team scored a grand total of three goals... lol.. Zak was pretty chuffed because he scored two of them.. poor kids - it never discouraged them though - they kept on playing. A couple of quick pics from the Carnival. Of course he couldn't manage a decent smile! He couldn't concentrate on smiling for the camera and eating the ice block at the same time.

We've also been out fishing a bit! It's great fun. Jason has a boat and loves to take it out. We've all had the chance to catch a fish - its just a matter of catching the "keepers". Most of our catches we have to throw back because they're not quite big enough.

Have been spending a fair chunk of time at Jason's - he's doing some work on his house so we've been over there "helping" him. Not much time for scrapping lately. But still getting in there when I can.

Shop and Crop are having a "Creative Escape" next year - can't wait! Charmaine and I have our tickets booked.. travel paid for. Now all we need to do is what to take with us! Bit worried about baggage limits lol.

Anyway, time to nick off and get ready for work. Yawnnnn... roll on Christmas break!
