I woke up at 1215 am thinking I could smell fire so I did the run around thing of switching off night lights and lamps. Then of course I couldn’t sleep because just in case…so I am tired and cranky but that’s okay because the kids knew and so therefore crap got done without a voice being raised.
So this time last week I was torn between leaving one family and returning to another..my trip to Darwin my home town visiting my parents come to end.
I love Darwin I am grateful for the child hood she gave me but she is different now the 6ft high fences and every house having a dog tells me that and so as I think of how sad I am that not all change is good..
And on that glum note here are the few things running through my head..
1. My kids have a better social life than me and I’m weary for it.
2. Started watching American Horror Story the Coven Series…addicted however I cant watch the opening credits…they are scarier than the show its self.
3. I now however sleep with all the lights on.
4. Whilst I was in Darwin a man was beaten twice in the space of an hour whilst walking in a shopping centre car park..he fought for three days before dying..the gangs that beat him it is thought will get just 20 months with probation after 14 months..I don’t even see the point in finding them..as I said to my mother the only thing I have to worry about when I go for my morning walk in my small country town is snakes..
5. I’m getting ready for thanks giving. I’m not American, I’m not celebrating it for religious reasons or being suckered into American money making holiday. I love the idea of giving thanks to those that are important in my life. I think it’s a beautiful way to start the festive season and it’s a great little distraction for the kids now that daddy is at work. having done it a few years in a row we just do a little dinner, dessert and literally say thanks. But here is a little info did you know that Norfolk Island celebrate it and have a public holiday on the 4th Wednesday of November..this year the 27th of November.
6. I will not be eating Mc Donald’s ever again here **amendment Ammonia Hydroxid is not used in the making of Australian Mc Donald’s**
7. She is having a double mastectomy and this is how she behaves…my kind of woman.
8. A few building opp’s here.
9. I decorate my home within an inch of its 100 year old life at Christmas…and have been designing her up since September…but if you need some help head over here.
10. Being this pretty and off to jail..they are going to be someone’s girl..
Have an awesome day..
Xx Deb
