Yes
I am way late doing a November post, no excuse just forgot, so shoot
me.
Anyway
this month marked my parents 55th wedding anniversary and to
celebrate I arranged a surprise party for them that we held at their
house so mum and dad could both have a drink or two if they wanted to
do so. Pretty much every one who was invited turned up which was
good, with the exception of my mums brothers and their wives and also
none of my sister Sue's children could attend. We all were pleased
that our cousin Kristine brought her mum our Aunty Pat to the party
we like it when Aunty Pat comes as we all know how much she enjoys
the family gatherings. Aunty Pat is dad's sister his older sister she
is a year older than dad and a year younger then mum.
Also
this month was my birthday I turned 53, no party but did get some
nice presents, Tim gave me $100 to spend on myself, Kathy gave me a
$50 gift card from Kmart, Jessica gave me a new trolley for my
laundry basket and Kelli gave me some photo frames and bath stuff the
frames already have photos in them I just have to decide where I will
hang them. Natasha at this stage hasn't given me a gift, my parents
gave me a beautiful watch and a lovely pendant and some garden lights
for my garden which I really wanted too.
My
sister in-law Leigh, also had her birthday this month hers is two
days after mine and the day before my birthday is Dave & Leigh's
wedding anniversary.
From
my birthday I dig out my Christmas jewellery and my Christmas hand
bag as well as my Christmas shirts and of course the Christmas
decorations go up, in fact yesterday I started to get the decorations
up with the help of Blain, I think he liked helping me I still have
more to go up haven't done the windows yet and I need to get some blu
tack to put up some of them.
Natasha
is moving home this month, she has given notice to the Dept of
Housing and Tim and I have filled in forms to tell the Dept of
Housing that she is moving back in here. She will be out of her place
by the end of the month, she has got a storage unit to store her
stuff as really only her bed and fridge are coming her everything
else will be going into storage, ok her clothes and Blain's clothes
are also coming here can't live without their clothes, (don't want
them going around naked).
I
will try and not be slack with next months post, I am thinking though
as I write this that maybe I should do a post at the end of the month
instead of the start of the month. I will think about it a bit more.
