Men

Can anyone tell me why some husbands have to speed on motor bikes? Specially when we're so short of cash that we can't afford a $200 odd fine. FINE, don't listen you know better. NOT. Grrrrr.

2009 In Review

Well another year has come and gone in the blink of an eye.
The 2009 highlight for me would have to be my trip to Chennai. Never thought I'd really leave this wonderful country for a holiday over seas and now I'm busting for another.




David's second mission trip to The Philippines was in May. He was away for mother's Day. Yeah I know I'm not his mother but he did have a part in me becoming one and it was weird him not being here.



Greg bought a house and moved out of home and in with Megan in June. Oh my goodness my baby is a home owner.



Anzac and Lola came for a sleep over. They are so awesome.



July had some trying times that don't need discussing however they were growing times for me.

Georgi became an aunty. The gorgeous little Elaina came into the world.




Turned 48 in August. Feel pretty good for my age.

Geoff shifted out of Lara and into Geelong. My babies are not babies at all any more. (They'll always be my babies though).



In October, Geelong won the Grand final. Yay, Go Cats.
Took a little time away to Healesville in October, only a few days but very nice.

My over view.
Being married is hard work at times but I would never want to be without my wonderful, loving, caring and strange husband.
I love my job at Kaisercraft and I do a great job. I'm blessed to be there.
My mission in life is to give love to those in need. Whether they need a little loving or a lot, I do my best to be there whenever I can.
My staff that I have worked with and am now working with have given me beautiful memories and experiences. Starting the year with Jess Matters and Kylie Obst. Then welcoming in Deb Johnson, and for awhile Mikayla Johnson. (mother and daughter team). Then as the year went on and circumstances changed in came Jess Johnson (no relation to Deb) A little while later in came Melinda, bringing with her Jillian and Loretta. And last but by no means least to join the team Maureen.




My sons are absolutely fantastic. I maybe a little bias however I think there are none better.
My friends are so special and I am so lucky to have some great loving times.
There are no favorites or maybe there are but in alphabetical order (so as not to offend anyone), special love to Amy, Caitlyn, Dani, Fi, Kathryn, Kim, Mary, Megan, Pam, Sheryl. Oh and the last on my alpha list and stand out in the crowd, Si.

Amy, You are the sweetest young lady I know and as you grow and mature I only love you more. Totally beautiful inside and out.

Caitlyn, wow how our friendship has grown and I love you.


Dani, what can I say. You are an amazing God send into my life. You beautiful girl are so precious. Thanks for loving me.

Kathryn, We haven't caught up much this year, busy for both of us but I treasure our
friendship.

Kim, Life was becoming so hectic and Thursday night started to become a chore but being your friend is never a chore. And the crazy connection our men has just makes it easy. Bless you my vintage girl.

Mary, you are a beautiful lady. I was so blessed to have the opportunity to catch up with you again this year. You are so far away and must make the effort to email you regularly as I love you very much. Maybe I'll get the opportunity to come visit you sometime. Look out Shropshire.



Megan thanks so much for having me stay with you and showing me around Chennai. A long way to go for my first ever manicure and pedicure. The night away at Fisherman's Cove was a memory that I'll never let go of. Love you my Sisterchick.


Pam, always there, always loving, always supportive. Unconditional love. That's what we have. You have taught me so much I am forever grateful to you. Love you.

Sheryl, we can see each other every day or once month and nothing ever changes, we are lifelong friends and I treasure you.



Si, I don't just love you for your kids. Truly I don't. You are one truly indescribable friend. When I try to think of words to put you and I together I can't. I love you more than I can describe. I love and appreciate you. You teach me so much and I feel loved by you. You encouraged me to go on my first overseas trip. I don't think I would have ever gone if not for you. I love Anzac and Lola so much. You are a wonderful Dad. Thanks my weird and special friend.



DAVID, It has been one very big year. So big. You are the love of my life. Our trips away from each other are amazing and saddening. I had a great unforgettable time only you weren't there to share it with. I missed you and it shed me my love for you. There will be trips for us together ahead though. We got through the yuk stuff and I'm so proud of you for your sharing and connection with me through communication. I'm also proud of myself for my own growth. Every day I love you more. Me, you and a big BMW will make so many memories. Love being your wife. I hope I make you proud.
