Vaminos Muchachos

Ava has broken out in chicken-pox. There was a note up in day care on Thursday informing parents that there was a case of CP in the Possum (baby) room. She is covered mainly on her upper body. Arms and face especially. She is in good spirits though.

Jess has re-developed her Daddy Daddy complex. Ang can't go to bed if she's in there. She tells her to "go away" and "my bed, my Daddy". She is quite precocious. The terrible two's is a fun stage of development.

We had to have our cat put down on Thursday. Thomas was 14 years old. He was pretty fucked up (not eating or walking). He had a toe removed 4 years ago and we were told that it was a high possibility that it was cancerous. He has been put down in a sunny spot of the garden. Going to get the kids to help me make a cross for the grave.

My Mum had a heart attack 2 weeks ago and didn't know. She went for tests at her local GP on Thursday and ended up being sent straight to Western General Hospital in Footscray. She has been seeing a personal trainer so obviously it took too much out of her. She is in good spirits and according to Dad you wouldn't know that she has had a turn.

The kids go back to school on Monday. Thank the gods !! Sarah has been really good over the period but Paige sort of went troppo the last week. Was a mess - up and down at the drop of a hat. Jaiden has been working his arse off. Has a bit of a bank building up. Has been getting a lot of kudos from his managers. Good.
