Tuesday

It is 9:20 in the morning.  I went to bed around 1 a.m.  Took a bit of time to get to sleep.  Woke up around 3 a.m.  Have been up ever since.  I am so tired and it isn't even noon.  Have tried to sleep, no luck.  Will get a few things done and maybe try to nap this afternoon.

Another, lighter, thunder storm this morning.  Today is probably going to be a write-off.

In case I do fall asleep early, have a great rest of the week.

I have a theory Belinda, you arent busy with work, so you aren't weary. You are fairly relaxed so you aren't tired enough to sleep. You will probably be OK once you return to work. I do trust this is all it is. Today I had a 9.30 am visit to my long standing gynacologist, all was well which is good. I had my right ovarie and tube removed in May. No cancer though so relieved at this news. This afternoon I had a dentist appoinment to have a tooth made prettier that had had an absess on the gum. Tomorrow is the back man and then the hairdresser. Busy days, such is life. Your storms sound rather good, I so enjoy them. I hope you are well. Julie xx

Thanks, Julie. I rarely get insomnia, so when I do it hits hard. I think the patch might be a contributing factor also. Yes I do need to get back to work.
Glad to hear you don't have any cancer, wonderful news. I have an appointment to get my teeth cleaned and another to get my second shot for Africa the week after next. If never rains, but pours.
Really do love thunderstorms, too, but at night when you can turn the lights out and watch the show.
I am well and hope you are too.

Insomnia is a bitch, I don't get it often but when you do it is difficult to break the cycle. Like you say it never rains...... next week I won't have any appointments but I do need to buy my poor old Dad a walker so that will be next weeks project. He has to go to Newcastle to the hospital down there on Tuesday to the professor he sees so that will be an all day affair. Tuesday is also son number two Robert's 24 birthday. I am well, just getting old with lots of aches and pains. My dad is 84 so can only imagine how his body feels. Lovely day here, 8 am sunny and 9 degrees but it feels like it will warm up. Boss just rang and wants me to buy bread rolls for him on the way to work and I need to change the sheets yet and haven't had my shower as yet so I had better get organised. Hope you have a good day. Say hello to Kayla for me. Julie xoxo

It has been a strange day, weather wise.  Woke up to pouring rain, then beautiful sunshine, the pouring rain again.  Weird.  I am really missing Mumbushi this week.  Loved that little guy.  FB is getting a little weird.  We had a really nice group, then it grew.  In some ways it is a little better, in some ways, I liked the group we had.  Can you tell I don't like change too much?  I think I am just feeling too sentimental tonight.  Missing all my babies and can't wait to see them.  Mumbushi was only with us a short time, but he touched a lot of lives.  I am so sorry I never got to meet him.  Oh, Lord, the tears are starting. A little upset tonight.  Maybe I am being a little petty, but I don't care.  My son's girlfriend's family want to throw a birthday party for him tomorrow.  This is great.  However, for his birthday, he borrowed my car to go to a wedding, and stayed there overnight.  Just came back this evening, so no time to really do anything for him.  Now t

Ah, another week has gone by.  16 days left before I leave.  I realized today that it is not traveling that I am nervous about.  I think I have this fairy tale opinion of Africa that I had had since I was a kid.  I have dreamed of going for so long.  But with all that's going on, my views have shattered.   I always thought of Africa as deep jungles, lost rivers and exotic locations.  Maybe it was like that when I was a kid, but that was 45 years ago.  A lot changes in that time. Back to work tomorrow.  The weekend was a complete write-off.  Pouring rain, cold, miserable.  But I got a lot done.  Washed all the bedding from the guests last week.  So everything is good. Long weekend next week.  Our Thanksgiving.  I am invited to the "future in-laws??" for dinner.  Am looking forward to it.  Such a great family.  I am so glad Greg met Allie.  She is a wonderful girl (woman). Anyhow, I am all packed.  I think I have my luggage at the good weight.  I had to fix one of my

Monday

Have been doing a lot of thinking tonight.  I realize I can hold a grudge.  In my life, I have been abandoned by 2 mothers and a father.  However both mothers decided to come back into my life around the same time.  And it was a case of "let's forget about what was and there was nothing in the middle".  Everything is normal, we go on as if nothing happened.  Excuse me, but FUCK THAT.  I am not going to forget everything and just act like everything is normal.  I hate swearing, but there are a few times when it is warranted and this is one of them. Sorry for the rant.  It just really ticks me off that they expect me to be available when they decide to show up, like it's a family obligation.  There has never actually been a family situation. O.k. I have gotten it out of my system.  Deep breaths.  Relax.  Done. How are all my friends today?  Hope you are having a great week.  Just took Kayla for her walk.  We had a storm a little earlier this evening and when we we
