We all decide which of these is most relevant in any situation. It's all in the genomes...

Bowl me over
Well.
Myself and Jaiden have been TenPin bowling twice since Thursday. On our first visit we bowled 3 games. I averaged 127 (137 high score) and the boy averaged 75 (79 high). We went again yesterday and I averaged 139 (155 high) and Jai averaged 81 (99 high) over another 3 games.
It is very enjoyable. I am thinking of maybe joining a league with some co-workers from PizzaBoys. Andy has shown an interest and maybe a few others as well.
You can also buy Bulk games. 10 games for $38. Might have to do that.
I will endeavour to take the boy there once a week from now on. Gives us time out of the house and we can try and do some Male Bonding. He doesn't have a father figure in his life. We shall see what becomes of it all, anyway.
Apart from that I've been calling Ang once a day over the last few days. Missing them terribly. Only 5 days to go now. I nearly cry when she puts Jessica on the phone. Jessica knows it's me. Last night whilst on delivery I got an egg thrown at my car. I thought it was a rock as it hit with some force. Damn punk arse kids. It would be something that I would've done when I was a teenager. Not so funny now though. Guess it is my Karma.
Working tonight/Monday/Wednesday/Thursday and then the ladies wil be home. Yay.
Getting Graeme (From work) to clean my Air Filter at 9am this morning. And then maybe heading to the Sunday Crap Market here in Morwell for a browse. That's about it....

Sad Sack
:(
6 days till they get back.
I am not myself without them here. Sad and lonely. I work which helps some. Is hard during the day when I am here by myself. Trying to keep busy but it is hard at times. Sleeping is hard as I have no-one to snuggle close to.
I talked to Ang / Jess this morning. Missing them a bunch.
Now where did I put that Time Machine??

Im a lazy git
Yes, I am.
My special women (Ang & Jess) and Paige/Sarah flew out to New Zealand on Monday.
Im so lonely and sad that they are gone. That's what love is. An ache in the pit of your stomach when those that are precious to you are not around. I am coping Ok I guess. Have been attacking the backyard with renewed vigour. Have booked in a 3m Skip for next Wednesday ($140 for a week). We are going to have a veggie patch at one end of the backyard along the garage and a Japanese style garden near the house. White pebbles / Rake garden. Shall be nice (I hope). The work has begun anyway... Need the $$$$ for the project. Will not be wasting my work money at the TAB like yesterday ($70 down the drain) in the future. Need goals to work towards.
Brother Andrew (Fruitloop) came back to the Valley with me after I dropped the ladies off on Monday. What a moocher he is. I sent him packing yesterday.
There were dramas with the flight out from Tullamarine on Monday. The cargo doors would not close which delayed the flight by 2 hours. Stuffed up the adjoining flight to Nelson in the evening. Ang told me that Air NZ were excellent in accomodating her needs. They gave her a $30 food voucher at Tullamarine and even paid all expenses for an overnight stay in Auckland. That was good. Will be writing them a Big thank-you email when they get back.
Myself and Jaiden are going off TenPin bowling tonight. 3 games for $30. Not too bad. Gets us out of the house and doing something together. He looks after himself and we hardly say 2 words to each other when we are close. I like it that way. Gives the Boy independence and a chance to take care of himself. I was at that age (I think?). He has been excellent. The house has not burnt to the ground whilst I am at work - So that is a positive.
Work has been Ok as well. So far have done 9 hours this week. Will probably end up doing close to 25 hours for the week. Will help pay for the Skip next week anyhoo.
Well, that's about it from my end. Until next time, Ciao.

All clear
Got the results from my CT scan yesterday.
No tumors or adenomas up there, thank the gods. Just need to get my bloodwork back and see if any of my hormones/chemicals are out of whack.
If not, it will be a simple Med change to fix my sky-high prolactin level.
Phew... Good.
On other news got a new exhaust fitted to the Mira yesterday. Purring like a kitten again. And I worked till midnight last night. Jessica woke me at 3am and then again at 630am. Whenever she sleeps in the bed with us I have a horrible nights sleep.
Bah.

CT Scan
Some bad news yesterday for me.
After seeing my GP (Al Mayahe) we found out that my Prolactin levels are off the charts. A normal range is between 80-300. My levels are at 596 !!
He then asked if I suffered from headaches. I told him not so much headaches but certainly pressure in the skull. He rushed off and called a specialist. In the end we had bad news or bad news.
Might be tumours OR adenomas on my pituitary / hypothalamus gland in my brain. Not so good.
I had the CT scan at Traralgon in the afternoon and will get the results either today or tomorrow. Might be nothing more than my medication causing the problems BUT might be something more sinister. Certainly would explain alotta shit going on with me at the moment (ie. tiredness, sleep patterns, nausea, seein black spots in my vision).
Will update this once I know more.

Hmmmm
Jesus.
I've been anchored down of late. Too much shite on my mind. A lot of stress be it either money, the house or the kids. Ang understands me well and we talk openly about the problems which is excellent. If one festers one cannot heal.
My main worries have been been, I guess, money. Always not enough to go around. I earn over $400 a week from work yet it seems every week it is spent before I have it. Not good. We are still recovering from the Xmas/School Holiday period. Has been a total (if not disastrous) wipeout. Apart from that I've been totally avoiding what to do with the fruit of my discarded loins (Byron). I have come to the conclusion that I am never going to be close to him and I don't want to fuck up his/and his parents life by being part of it. Hmmm. This is a toughy. I will make the decision when it becomes clear to me. We are dealing with the Paige dilemma as we speak. We saw her counsellor last Thursday and she seems nice. Time will tell with this one as we are at a total loss with what to do with Paige. She is (if she continues as she is) going to have a hell of a hard time as she grows up. Poor kid.
I feel as though I am not passionate enough with Angela. I wish to hell I could be more of a good husband. I feel as though I am being a cold hearted bastard at times. It isn't me though - it is my defunct genes. Damn parents. I will continue to make an effort to be a loving, caring man. Just takes some extra effort at times with all this other stuff going on. We sorta come last (me and her) in the greater scope of things/life. We talk and air things out which is great. I love her to death and would do anything for her.
Jessica is a terror. A beautiful, snuggly bum terror at that. Steals my heart with a flash of her mischievious grin/smile. Another soul that I would lay my life down for.
I guess I understand what love is. It is when you cannot go without the special people in your life and that there is an ache in your heart when you are away. My late cat (Millie) falls into this category as well. Funny it seems that I was so close to her, but she was my little companion when times were at there darkest (1997-2003). RIP old girl. I miss you.
Well, what more can I lay down... I guess I feel like a battery operating on empty at the moment. I reach deep and find the guts to keep doing it. Always will. My special ladies in my life give me meaning and the will to keep going. Awww.
