Hello again

I apologise for not typing Christmas day as promised, i did not continue my blog for quite some time, but apologies as i have been flat out and have a very sick friend that i am also tending too, enough said.

Xmas day, well this started with a 5am wake up and stomping down the stairs to see what Santa had delivered under the tree.  Needless to say with one child he was spoilt silly and was more disappointed to see so many clothes in the Santa sack.  Now i have a bit of a theory about this one! do i just buy more clothes as the rabbit continually grows! or can i just add to the Santa sack and make him feel grateful that he has gotten more clothes than toys therefore more to unwrap!!

Upon speaking with a friend about this we both came to the conclusion that he should learn to be grateful about anything that he gets so fancy clothes should be seen to be gifts and not just what appears in your wardrobe.

By the way, the 5 year old was awesome but the mumma (thats me) was ridiculous.  I unwrapped pressy from husband and had a face like a bloodhound.  I walked into the kitchen to hide the disappointment (it didn't work as I was followed and told off for being a brat!)  What was i complaining about?  I was bought some lovely perfume but it was nothing i had worn before and all i could think off was great, perfume, and nothing i even wear and great i am after 20 years worthy of bloody perfume.   Why is it that women put real effort into gift buying and men just think of something you need.......i wanted to be spoilt with something i didn't need and wanted to feel like the girlfriend again.   But since i am living in the real world i just have to get over it!!!

So as to the Ninjago!!! needless to say i was off the hook for most of it as hubby did the majority and when i needed some zen time! i did assemble a rather scary looking dragon.  and i also have to offer an apology to Lego.  You don't market to five year olds do you and you do make the work books easy to read don't you and you definitely aren't marketing to geeks so make your adds more upmarket so that it doesn't look like once you have assembled them you can actually play with them GEEZ i mean the old Lego made sense, you just got your blocks and make whatever you wanted, now all this stuff must fit together to make something that if it gets bumped breaks so here is my tip don't buy it if you want to play with it but if you 30 something and need a zen place to go to then buy it and buy a display case where it never gets used and is something pretty to look at.

OK now after way too much food that wasn't meant to be consumed and not near enough exercise, i feel i have gained at least 4 kg which sucks but now is my new years resolution!! AGAIN

Went to Southport parklands for party and fireworks which was great and now waiting for Jacqui, Dave and Lucas for dinner and some drinks to celebrate the new year.

So with that a rather quick blog happy new year to all and take care not to do anything other than concentrate on your happiness.
