learning the art of patience...

OK, so it's been a pretty long and tiring journey this whole building a house thing! But it is drawing to a close, and I think that I am finding this part the hardest... In case I forget and it seems like a good idea, I do not want to build again with a volume builder ever again!!!! Owner building all the way from here on in... Well that's if we ever build again ;). Today being the 15th means that we have only have another 15 days of a roof over our heads! Thankfully we do have a caravan and a very nice foreshore here, so that is where we may end up if Metricon does not full their finger out and give us a settlement date... arrrrrrgggggghhhhh Sorry just had to let that out!
The house itself is looking lovely and I am sure that we will be extremely happy living there but we just need to get there... OK so sitting here blogging is probably not going to get anything packed, but just needed to vent! Thanks for listening...
May your day be full of sunshine! XO

rugged good looks...

Time for a change here, not sure what I think about it yet, what do you think?? The look of the blog that is...

all creatures great and small...

Some people measure the greatness of their life by how much money they have, or how many possessions they own, or how great their career may be, or as sad as it sounds, but as to how many friends they have...
Well just the other day whilst going about my home duties, I too began to ponder on what my greatest achievement to date in my life would be, which made me stumble across this sheer fact of awesomeness!! Awesomeness, not sure if it's really in the English dictionary as a word, but it totally suitable for what I came across in my head...
I made totally amazing babies, all 4 of them to be precise!! Yep that's a functioning heart and lungs and all the other important fundamentals that you require to be a living human. I personally believe that so many Mothers underestimate how truly amazing a feat this actually is... It's not just bake in a Moderate oven for 1 hour here, it's 40 or so weeks of creativity at it's best...
And then, once created I fed them to the chunky size that babies should be, apparently for all of them, to the size of 25% of Australian babies!!
So the next time someone tries to make you question your existence, think about the wonders that growing and rearing a child can bring.
I will have this job as Mama Hick for life! No-one can make me redundant or cut my wages because this is a job that's paid with love, pride, and sheer satisfaction!
I know that your probably thinking well hang on a minute, you did not do this single handedly, so acknowledgements to my gorgeous punkins ( aka Cory) for planting the seeds of life!
This also leads me to realise how wonderful my life is...
May your day be 100% loved up! (with a little bit of sick and snot for good luck)
Satisfied Mama XO

home...

Oh me oh my, I do believe that we will only have 29 more sleeps in this house until we should be in our new home!!! Smiling like you would not believe! x
