If I had a little girl…which I don’t..I’m blessed with just my beautiful boys. So if I had a little girl I would ‘make’ them grow there hair just so I could do pony tails and ribbons…especially these kind of ribbons..strips of fabric scraps..perfect and so sweet.
Have a great Friday my friends

Oh and don’t forget my little draw..
So when husband is at work staying sane means being and staying organised. When I’m not orgainised and the houses isn’t I get a little crazy in my head. dont get me wrong Im a great multi tasker you have to be but I have the worst memory in the world. I’m also a post-it note girl. Always have been. They are everywhere to remind me to do something. Or to remnd me of a brilliant idea. Post it note…turn off the sprinklers…post it note turn off the oven…yes it can be that bad.
So to ensure that everything runs smoothly I have three yes three planners…1st my ipod touch and its calender /alarm application I use this for in my bag for when I make a appointments whilst on the run out and about. I never thought I would be a techy girl because Im old fashioned I love to write things down but its so easy , small and ohhh the possiblities on it are endless. 2nd My dairy I put all dates especially longterm dates ahead here. When bills are due etc 3rd My weekly planner I use this for the week ahead. On it it has an area for shopping list. I also put my menu plan for the week here. I write everything down everything. I brought mine from kikki k but you could just down load one from the net there are so many good ones.
How does any one do it with out a diary and a weekly planner? It saves so much time during the week. Im a happy planner.
Each Sunday I sit down and go through my dairy and ipod and transfer any dates for the week ahead on to my weekly planner. Sounds abit OCD but I like to be organised. Makes things a lot easier. Its also when I do my menu plan and shopping list. Its also good for FIFO husband he can see at a glance when he gets home what he is on for and there is no cross communication.
I keep mine in the kitchen visible for everyone to see. Just dont change anything without telling me.
There are so many options for household planners I so dont know how a house runs without one.
Love things being simple. lol
Have a great Thursday my friends..

Whinge and whine. Im sorry. I have lots to post but I cant because I cant think. I dont think it will make sense. I havent slept much more than four hours for the last three nights. Im literally running on adrenalin I think and its sucks. I have two sick kids. I always seem to have sick kids for a period of time when FIFO husband is away.
Cryptosporidium (our second bout in a month thanks public swimming pool and daycare centre) and serious flu/ head cold action, Im not sure which.
It gives me the crackers that I will keep my kids home when they are sick but others send theirs to school and daycare to spread the germy love and spread the germy love they do right B1 and B3’s way. It really peeves me. Its always those two that get sick. Never B2. I dont know why.
Yet having said that I dont know there situation. I dont know how tired they are or how desperatly they just need a break even if it does mean sending their child to school sick as a dog. You just dont know I guess.
Back tomorrow,

Its coming up autumn here you can tell these are some of the last days of summer. The mornings are so much cooler and the leaves on my gorgeous crepe myrtles are starting to change one by one to a burnt orange. I love the change in the seasons.
So as these are the last days of summer we have spent most of it by the picnicking water this weekend one of mine and the boys favourite places to be.
We don’t live near the beach any creek or dam will do it doesn’t matter, I will picnic on the bank of the river underneath the shade of a tree anyway where.
Here’s to the last days of summer.
Have a lovely Monday my friends,
