Smiley Saturday


What made me smile this week

  • I got to see a very special friend Tiff @ Three Ring circus and her delightful children - at a picnic in the park
  • What can I say Saturday is almost over and I had a great afternoon at the Body and Soul women's event at Church. The Afternoon tea was why I went LOL .
  • I made a cute card , learnt a little about winter gardening (potted 4 tiny tomato seeds) and learnt a little about massage and got a short shoulder and scalp massage. I also gave a foot massage ...no way was I soaking mine and I am way too ticklish. It was fun.
  • My MIL visited this morning so my computer time was limited *wah* .Actually - it was okay we sat outside in the last of the autumn sun and enjoyed watching the boys play. DH was at work till 1pm.
  • This afternoon, after I left for my afternoon off , she repeated everything she had told me to DH ...LOL I checked. Gotta' love her she is so consistent.
  • We have HOT water - more than ever the best reason to smile.
  • I know I shared it yesterday but for those of you who missed it -

  • It has been a lot of fun ...new comments but a lot of my other dear readers seem to be absent. I miss you Okay !
  • My virtual friends - new and old - some which are real life friends made me smile.
  • Laura's Carly is here
  • Yesterday I wrote ...

    I am have touched by the many instances this week to the extent that though Internet friends can’t replace your community of real life friends this virtual world they can add to it.

    It is the supplementary support, that in good times and/or in bad times brings us to tears and cheers us on.
    When our world is shattered - cyber friends can help us pick the 'virtual' pieces. When we are triumphant - they can celebrate with us.
    When we use it earnestly and with compassion to reach out in friendship, we can receive it in return - that for some us is very real. I hope that we can give and take a little of this support.In my travels the last few days I have read some heartbreaking and inspiring stories.
  • Plus found some great steals - Trisha Truly made smile when she shared this guy -11 years old.

52 blessings Grateful Fridays,


Another week and it has been a good one ... lots of randomness tonight as I wrap up my week.

  • Firstly The Blogosphere blitzed Alison's busiest day ever -thanks with over 8000 hits !
  • I started

    NaComLeavMo

    on 25th May . National Comment Leaving Month has been a lot of fun so far and I found a lot of new blogs.
  • It was my blogosverary too.
  • Our dishwasher got attacked by roaches recently - we didn't know. It broke down of the horror of making the teen do the dishes. Exasperating beyond measure.
  • Our microwave was finally fixed after 5-6 months. In Dec we called the appliance repair guy who came and looked it over- said it needed new turntable motor. He was going to order it - quote was about $200 .It was a convection microwave that I use as my main oven so we said - yes ! We wanted it back by Christmas ... never happened. We let it slide.
  • I still used it -just got used to turning the food or burnt edges LOL. I waited for M to ring the slacker fix the 'problem '.
  • Finally a few weeks ago Dh took the microwave to someone else. We got it back yesterday - $142 (yes less indeed than the slacker quoted... *bing* we saved $60 odd )
  • I digress to add the slacker guy who fixed our dishwasher - was the only one we could get - we had no choice since we hoped the dishwasher was a warranty problem. He was the authorised repairer.He still kept us waiting over a week. Unfortunately it was not under warranty and it was expensive - overcharged this too probably and took him 2 hrs to figure out the problem!
  • The hot water system that didn't heat up last night (apparently - we hope) so we have no hot water tonight. DH had stripped off himself not for me and the babies for a shower - he jumped in to warm it up ...at the same time I was quickly filling the sink to wash up (non dishwasher stuff) - NO hot water ... I go to tell him - he who is hastily drying off and two nekkid poopy buttered babies are suddenly running about the house. I boil the kettle to make hotwater for the laundry tub bath. The teen is screaming - hey someone wipe his b u m . I chase the babies - Dh is out checking the powerboard ? Who knows why - tomorrow we find out it heats up today overnight- if that makes sense. I stopped him from drilling through the case to push the button to make it start !
So what I am I grateful for my appliances ... I can't live without them though for thousands of years people have but these comforts certainly make life easier. Cockroaches I have no idea why they walk the earth. Vermin.

What appliances can't you live without ?



I am also very grateful for my Virtual friends - new and old - some which are real life friends .

I am have touched by the many instances this week to the extent that though Internet friends can’t replace your community of real life friends this virtual world can add to it.

It is the supplementary support, that in good times and/or in bad times brings us to tears and cheers us on.
When our world is shattered - cyber friends can help us pick the 'virtual' pieces. When we are triumphant - they can celebrate with us.
When we use it earnestly and with compassion to reach out in friendship, we can receive it in return - that for some us is very real. I hope that we can give and take a little of this support.
I know there are are some bloggers who never get many comments - I was one of them. In my travels the last few days I have read some heartbreaking and inspiring stories.
I try not to comment for the sake of return comments but I know that it the way we start new friendships. We strike a cord and we build up a rapport... eventually... hopefully.

I found another new Aussie blog last week A goodsort - go read there latest post - Are yours heading south ?

and they shared this awesome prose from The Modern Goddess Blog -

Mountain Dreaming from the book

The Invitation ... by Oriah

It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love
for your dream
for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon.
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow
if you have been opened by life’s betrayals
or have become shrivelled and closed
from fear of further pain.

I want to know if you can sit with pain
mine or your own
without moving to hide it
or fade it
or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy
mine or your own
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us to
be careful
be realistic
remember the limitations of being human...

A New BEST day ever -update

A NEW DAY HAS BEGUN - target reached !

I am asking all my readers to join the blogosphere in helping Allison - by a simple click or more if you have access to other computers (say in an office)


Melissa from Stirrup Queens and Sperm Palace Jesters wrote ... A New Day

The day that Allison lost Zoë is forever marked her "best day ever" on Wordpress because it is the day that the most people visited her blog. For her own emotional well-being, she needs this post to be taken off her blog dashboard. The way to do that is to create a new record for visits to her blog.

On Thursday, May 29, please click on Allison's blog, Our Own Creation, and help replace that post with whatever is currently up on her blog that day. Everyone needs to visit on the same day--May 29th--because if we simply click throughout the week, it won't bump the day she lost Zoë from that section of the dashboard. I am writing this now to give us time to spread the word. Take the graphic I created and place it on your own blog. Don't worry--I'll remind you to click that day.

We need 2,350 people to visit Our Own Creation on May 29th. We need 1,785 people visit Sweet Zoë.
I have to check the time zone for Australia but sometime over 3-4 pm Thursday should do it.

If you are visiting from NaComLeavMo please read my welcome post HERE.

Empty Arms

NaComLeavMo


25th May was my Blogosversary and it also marked the start of NaComLeavMo. I am playing catchup today. Melissa from Stirrup Queens and Sperm Palace Jesters wrote

... Blog writing for a month is all good and fine; but what about the other side of blogging--the comment leaving? Comment leaving is an integral part of blogging. Without comments, blog posts are as flat as...Flat Stanley. Blogging is a conversation.

Welcome ... If you are visiting me for NaComLeavMo and are struggling with infertility or pregnancy loss, I am sorry if the pictures of my IVF twins upsets you. My story is complex.

For 14 years I've straddled the realms of long term infertility, local adoption, surprise pregnancy and the subsequent unexplained loss of that precious little girl when I was 6 months pregnant in 2004 (Charlotte was stillborn) .Then we embarked on an IVF journey that gave us our miracle boys in 2006.

I want to share this with you Empty Arms .If you want to know how someone suffering infertility feels please watch this video too and share it.

Anyway from May 25th to June 25th I am up for a full month of intense comment leaving.*gasp*

I look forward to visiting you and I hope to meet many new people and share my story too. It should be a lot of fun.

Aerobix and other heavy stuff


MY Winter Exercise program...

I am on it !

Take one Weetbix.

Take an Aero chocolate bar.



Crumble the Aero over the Weetbix. Voila!

AEROBIX !

Seriously I would not do that to a chocolate and I don't really eat aero bars because they are so full of holes - hole lot of nothing !





I do have a muffin top and a twin belly flap ... tucks neatly into my jean though and is hidden by top.I don't mind this at all - the babies love to poke my belly button in and out. It is a cheap amusement whilst nursing - except it makes me jump.
I am inspired to start a real exercise program though after reading Lightening's efforts.I want to get fit. My weight is in the healthy weight range but on the limits. I will never wear a bikini again my body is very ugly due to NF1.
So some serious stuff now ...
I will talk more about this later week . May is Neurofibromatosis awareness month -and I am in still in denial ...It is as common a genetic disorder as CysticFibrosis yet most people have never heard of NF.

Have you ?

Rewinding at the Fibro today 7/5/2010 ...

Weekly Winners - Blogoversary edition

Lotus @ Sarcastic Mom is the brainchild and host of Weekly Winners. It gives me something to aspire too each week ( a new camera ...) I didn't get many this week.

525,600 minutes ...how do you measure a year ?
Well, a year ago today I started My Little Drummer Boys blog (though I had two other posts written earlier that were an integral part of my story). A few years ago I saw the musical RENT. This song sums up what I feel.

How do you measure a year ? ... 376 published posts...1500 cups of tea or more . A large number with no comments . I was very discouraged in the beginning. I am still not sure how where my blog will take me . There are so many things I want to say but not enough hours in my day and yet ...

I do feel 'down' sometimes and I feel if I don’t put some of my thoughts down I will have a meltdown.

I’m not writing this for sympathy or even your encouraging and kind words or earnest comments. It blows me away when you do though. The kindness of strangers can be infinite.I just know that I have been thinking (and dreaming) of so much I want to say and not saying anything about it is making me feel worse . So maybe I will ?

I say thank you for each and every one of my readers for hanging in there. I really appreciate you. It is a great song ... Seasons of Love ?

Smiley Saturday - Peace Globe Project


Another week has passed me by in the blink of an eye ...
another week of smiles and reasons to be thankful.

  • S still has his glasses intact .Monday we got a reprieve from patching for now. Our next appointment is in 2 months after his 2nd birthday when they will re- assess him again.
  • I have been concerned about the boys language or rather their speech .I know they understand everything I say but they weren't speaking much. This week they have finally started using more words.
  • We had great fun at the library choosing books to read ... though next time I take them in the stroller - they loved hiding between the book aisles and running away from me. I was laughing while cursing chasing them but they might ban us next time. Thank goodness for hoods on their sweaters.
  • I discovered the Blog blast for peace - thanks Sue.

BlogBlast For Peace Meme ~ Join The Revolution


BlogBlast For Peace Meme ~ Join The Revolution

Here are the rules and the story.
Copy this into a post, ADD YOUR NAME to the bottom of the tag list and tag as many people as you'd like.

The Peace Globe project began in the fall of 2006 with a simple post from one blog, Mimi Writes. The post ignited a flame in the blogosphere. The flame became a passion. The passion became a movement. It amazingly traveled from blog to blog to blog across the globe. Bloggers wrote passionate articles on what peace means to them, along with the promise of three Latin words scribbled on a globe - Dona Nobis Pacem (Grant Us Peace) - branded with the integrity of their names or blog names. It was positively inspiring to watch. And it began to happen all over the world - from Singapore to China to Afghanistan to Brooklyn.

It was simple. And powerful.

In less than two weeks bloggers from all across the globe will blog for peace.
We will speak with one voice. One subject. One day.
Won't you join us?
