a fifo wife {fifo life: a few things}

Another big weekend over and it brings with it the last week of school. Yeah. Ha. However that does mean we have one more week of school lunches but that’s okay because there is light at the end of the tunnel.

The weekend saw Daddy come home on Friday. That day was eventful to say the least. The boys and I went to the movies while we waited for his flight and saw Meatballs 2… the kids loved it..I however kept looking at my watch. I’m hanging out to see Frozen myself. The day progressed with B3 being accident prone all day. Sliced his foot on the door at the theatre after taking off his shoes and having the door opened on him, then banged his head on part of swing and finished it off with eyes so sore from swimming at the lagoon he couldn’t open them.

Then Daddy arrived and fixed everything mummy couldn’t..sigh.

So Daddy got home the star was placed on the tree and well Christmas in this FIFO house may begin so this last second week of December these are the few things running through my head.

1. I haven’t done my Christmas cards yet…it’s throwing my control mechanism of getting them out on the 1^st December out a little.
2. Support Sunday has become amazing and I feel so grateful to be a part of something so awesome.
3. Walked into a store on Friday to make a hefty purchase and was admit tingly looking a little dishevelled. I was ignored for a pretty young thing. Nothing drives me crazier than judging a book by its cover.
4. You are not responsible for someone else actions just remember that always.
5. Were eves dropping on some European back packers Friday afternoon? We were at the lagoon for a swim. One back packer said how surreal is it to be in December be in swimming and looking at a Christmas tree. This will be my first Australian Christmas one said but it doesn’t feel like Christmas. It’s nice as a novelty the other said but I wouldn’t want it every year. Hmmm…yes some days during the festive season when it’s filthy hot the season feels nothing like the plum pudding tins say it’s meant to.
6. Have a look at this app…It’s a countdown for families that work apart…great for kids and mums too.
7. Looking for an obvious answer? Here.
8. Some couples want to travel, have babies these honeymooners wanted to do this.
9. A porn channel for women yup here.
10. She looks nice here its all I am saying..I get introuble otherwise and being Monday thats enough just there.
