Wow...life is busy & my blog has been neglected!!
I can't believe it's so long since I updated my blog. It seems that my life has been running me for a while. Brakes on, deep breath and take control.
A quick summary... Sebastian is now sitting up on his own, my lovely daughters Kaye and Danie both had birthdays in September and we all got together for a great garden party BBQ at Danie's house in Malvern. It was great and the kids all had a fab time with their cousins.
Andy and I had two idyllic weeks in Puerto Pollensa, Mallorca in the first 2 weeks of September, we walked, swam, snorkelled,dived,ate,drank and danced and most importantly restored ourselves together. Both came home tanned and refreshed and only put on 2 1/2 lbs!!
Fat fighting is going extremely well now and we have both reached our 10% reduction targets, Andy is on his way to 2 1/2 stone loss and I am close to my 2 stone.
Little Tink had to go to kennels for the birthday weekend and although she had a great time, sadly came back with kennel cough. I sat up all one Friday night with her and was waiting on the Vet's door at 08.30am on Sat morning. The wonderful Will from Gower Veterinary Practice in Killay came out to the car and checked her over...diagnosed kennel cough, dried my tears and prescribed some medicine for her. She being a healthy little tyke recovered very quickly and 4 days later you'd never know she'd been ill. The kennels said they had had lots of cases reported and even though all dogs have to be vaccinated it's a bit like 'flu and the virus mutates!
I am back in work and feel well and in control again which is always a bonus. Still ridiculously busy but at least the time goes quickly and I do LOVE my job.
My sister princess Sharon and I spent a couple of days together and attended our Aunty Mona's 91st birthday lunch. It was hosted by our delightful cousin Briar and her husband Ken at their fabulous 22 roomed home in the midlands. Lunch was silver served for 30 people, we had gorgeous champagne, a pianist on the grand piano and lots of smiles and laughter.
Gemma has now had her baby ..a little KIWI boy to add to the family, he was quite late putting in an appearance but all is well. Georgia and Keith have set the date for June 2012 for their wedding and that too will be a joyous reunion for our lovely family.
The next occasion is the Woodhouse annual reunion that is coinciding with cousin Charmaine's 60th Birthday. We are all lunching at Stone Manor Hotel,(it used to belong to Uncle Ollie and Aunty Winnie and we played there often as kids). Really looking forward to it and this year some of the younger generation are attending for the first time.
WHEW......I'm glad things can calm down a bit now.
