ooops nearly a month since last Blog,,,,,
LOL so much for my big brag I was going to blog more often HAHA Yeah sure carol.
Anyway whats been happening, Tassie in in ythe grips of a heat wave, its so dammed hot here. Well its hot everywhere but we are sooooo not used to it here in Tassie.
Nev started building the carport and the other day I was going to pick up the kids and my car was in a different spot so wjhat did I do but drove a tad too close to the house and put a nice little dent in the car, (not to mention the house :)) I went inside and told nev he just gave me a hug and said hey dont worry it could have been worse. Its bad enough tho $700 for a small dent to be fixed, grrrr. In my next life i want to be a panel beater :)
My Kids havent gone back to school yet. Spending a huge amounyt I have them ready to go, Tegan starts grade 7 on Monday..... my baby in High School !!!!!!! and Ryan starts grade 9 on Wednesday . Ryan said to me the other day, Hey mum do you realise next year I will have my "Ls" now THATS Scary.
Anyway that will do for today and I will try and blog more often :)

The next episode!!!
Well after fining out the car was going to cost lots and lots of $$$$ to get fixed apparently pistons and other important things were bent and broken, apparently the timing belt broke, which I have now learnt IS NOT a good thing.
Nev decided we should buy a new (well new for us) car so we went looking on Thurs afternoon around all the car yards in Burnie only found 1 he kinda liked so we went back Fri morning (19th Dec) and took it for a test drive, nev said it had a knock in the steering, me ?? , so we went to Shearwater to have a look at a private one from the paper, Nev fell in love with the car AND the price and I ended up driving my new car home YAY.
On the 29th december Nev went back to work and I called him to let him know that our fridge died. sighhhh what else can possibly go wrong next. Nev decided the best thing to do would be go buy a new fridge so he brought one home on Wed.
I have decided that all out bad things happened in 2008, not all bad off course because we had our wonderful wedding. but 2009 Is not going to be a bad year. Things WILL go our way,,, pleaseeeeeeee.
lol thats all for now folks I have RSI from typing so much in one go lol, Carol xx

gee where did the days go?
Well here it is Christmas is over and I didnt make a post sorry!!
Its been a pretty eventful (read expensive) time here lately.
On the 17th of Dec I headed off to take the kids to the airport to go to melbourne to meet their dad and then go to new Zealand.
Ahh the best intentions..........
We left home with an hour to spare, I thought we could have an easy trip and would have spare time if we had a puncture or anything, what I didnt plan on was my car dying completely, totally,, DEAD. We just got around the roundabout at Howth and PftPft it went and then nothing...... I pulled over, checked the petrol :) and tried to start it,, nothing.
Hmmm time to start thinking, ok I will ring my best frind in Wynyard ask her to come get us, take us to Devonport where i would grab a rental. PLAN A
Ang said she would come, I spent ages on the phone calling directory assistance to get car rental places numbers and calling them, could you believe that there was NOT ONE rental car available in devonport that day. I tried to call Nev but he wads working out of phone range. I called my mum, just for some advice really, she suggested my SIL who lives at Turners Beach, so I tried her and asked how she felt about a trip to Launceston this afternoon!!!
Thankfully Jodi said no prob and we got Ang to drop us there and Jodi took us to the airport in Launceston. All panicing slightly we arrived 10 mins after we were supposed to and the plane was 50 minutes late. soooooo thankfully we sat had a calming drink, I gave the kids big hugs ( to their huge embarasment!!) and said goodbye.
Got back to jodis and Nev was there waiting for me, I had managed to get thru to him at some stage in the afternoon. he took me back to where I had left the car and we then towed it home, what an absolutely awful trip, its horrible being towed, horrible!!!
Home at 9.30 pm nev cooked tea while I sat at the table shell shocked. hes a wonderful man.

Your fairy is called Thorn Goblinglimmer
She is a bringer of riches and wealth.
She lives in brambles and blackberry bushes.
She is only seen when the sun sets on the day of a completed harvest.

Married 8 days now
This is us signing the register, I look so happy, I guess thats because I am, very happy.
The thing is, neville hardly smiles in any pics but then neville hardly smiles in public anyway :)
The day turned out perfect, see the sun shining, well you wouldnt believe it was absolutely bucketing down an hour before, everyone wanted me to change venues and I stood firm and said NO I want to be married at Oldina, its where we met and we want to make our vows there. God must have agreed cuz,,,, it stopped raining :)
