Time flies when you're ....

Holy hell where did that month go?  My last blog was late May and we're now about to wrap up June.  I haven't posted anything and I feel slightly guilty about it.  I know I shouldn't, it's not like I’ve been twiddling my thumbs raising 3 kids and all, but what did I do last month?  Let's see :

• I've nursed 7 cases of the cold/flu
• Entertained the concept (and cost) of returning to college
• Watched my share portfolio crash… again
• Dismissed the concept (and cost) of returning to college
• Attended Mum and Bub dance classes
• Hosted dinner parties
• Started a community health course
• Faced 2 very old demons (people) of my past
• Left community health course
• Treated a teething toddler for 3 of the 2yr old molars
• Mourned the anniversary of family member's passing
• Celebrated my daughter's 2nd birthday, 3 days later…
• Been visited by all versions of family and friends for said 2yr old birthday cause I didn't want to deal with organising a party (bad choice on my behalf, party would have been easier in the long run)
• Seen the return of my carpal tunnel syndrome
• Helped a friend start a new business
• Broke in a new support volunteer
• Saw a close friend move overseas
• Relished and lamented at 48hrs away from the kids
• Celebrated our wedding anniversary
• Enjoyed my first taste of real French cuisine (aka snails)
• Farewelled my past in one hell of a messy/drunken swan song
• Nursed myself through the mother of all hangovers
• Joined a playgroup
• Started the duo on solids
• Sprained my back
• Essentially paid for my chiropractor’s next holiday in fees treating sprained back
• Review household and revisit baby proofing for little rolling / crawling peoples
• Buy and install new car seats to stop the screaming babies
• Progressively increase distance driven with the trio, testing new car seats
• Fell over while holding a baby
• Participated in 3 market research product trials
• By some grace of the gods, we have been the recipient of a large flat screen TV, a HD set top box, a Wii console, a new laptop and a multi function centre.

Phew….


Like a friend recently blogged, we’re all SO busy these days, I mean who isn’t?

 

Sure my month has been full on, with all the ups and downs listed above, but I have 3 happy gorgeous children, a husband who loves me and that I adore, an amazingly supportive family and network of friends. Not to mention, food in the fridge and a roof over my dragon den.

 

So what did you do last month, do you even remember but more importantly what are you grateful for this past month?
