NOVEMBER .... SO LONG AGO !!

November .... so long ago .... we are in March now and boy of boy how the time is flying. I know it's been a long time since I blogged. Have done so much and been so busy in that time.

My youngest daughter .... Miss A, has now finished Year 12. Don't know what the year ahead holds for her ... but I'm sure there will be many challenges ahead. For those of you who don't know Miss A has Asperger Syndrome and so much of life is a continual challenge. She is getting help to find a job and I hope for her sake that this will be happening soon. I think being at home all the time, doing nothing, is becoming rather boring. Let me say that despite all the challenges over the years of schooling, I am very proud of her for the achievement of actually completing all her schooling ....... The only one of my children to do so !!!!! Good for her.

Christmas has been and gone and so has New Years, and so has our National Day - Australia Day ..... I've been away on a bonding weekend with my brother's and sister's in Halls Gap, Victoria, and our exchange student who was here from Illinois, USA 29 years ago, and came back to see us again after all these years .... it was wonderful to see her. We had the best time and we are hoping to have a weekend like this away every year .... minus the exchange student who probably won't be able to make it every year. I have been to Tasmania and spent time with my twin sister and my mum, albeit a very short amount of time ...... but I had a great time and loved it.

I will blog more about my time away, with photos, in the near future. Just have to make time to do it.

I've done some reading, although I'm a bit slow on the reading these days. I like to read in bed before I go to sleep, but often I'm so tired at the end of the day, that after just a small amount of reading I'm off to the land of NOD.

Oh and I haven't been keeping up with my one photo a day for a year .... not sure whether to start again or just continue on from where I left off???? Would that be cheating or just making allowances for having a very busy time.

So nice to read this post! I was just reading your last post last night and wondering when you'd post again! Sounds like an exciting time has been getting in the way of the computer! I vote for just start posting photos again. Doesn't matter if the days are all in a row or even if you miss a day or two. I really enjoyed your photos!
