And for no good reason. I am just downright lazy when it comes to getting my act together to blog to you. I don't think it's because I'm boring (although I probably am!); I just don't tell you about my boringness.
Life is not quite so boring at the moment though. Mike is away on a bushwalk; Gabi is going to Melbourne on Friday for a Young Leaders Day (being run through the school); Ben is rehearsing to be part of a choir (they're performing some of Handel's Messiah) and we have a house guest! One of our cousins, Nicole, is staying with us for a few days while she does some nursing coursework at Monash Uni in Churchill. And I'm back to looking for that highly elusive, externally paid employment. :P Other than that, it's pretty run of the mill, regular life here.
Catch y'all again later. Maybe I might do some crafty stuff and blog about that... :)

First day back
and Mike left his notebook at home. *facepalm*
I asked the obligatory :"Does everybody have everything?" as we exited the front door to get to the bus.
"Yes Mum!" they chorused.
"Ok off we go then, " said I as we climbed into Gus. (Gus is our Ford Territory; it's short for Angus, because he's just a little bit fancy.) The children head over to the bus stop, with their friends, to wait for the bus. I have a quick chat to some of the other mums and then go and do the grocery shopping. As I pull up in the driveway, I get a text from Mike asking if his notebook is on the table. And it is. He says he can manage for the day without it, so we'll see how his first day back was when he gets home. Lol.

It's good to be home...
Oh, alright, I haven't really been anywhere that would explain my looooong absence from blogging, but I like the quote. Yes, it is a quote (from ST:Enterprise). I remember silly things like that. I have the mind of a steel trap...a trivia trap!
I'm currently waiting anxioulsy to see if I have managed to join the ranks of the profitably, paid externally, employed. I saw an advertisement in a local shop window and put forward my application. I was interviewed. The sign is now no longer there, and I am waiting for the call!
School starts again tomorrow. The holidays went quite quickly! Too quickly for Mike (my son) and not quickly enough for Gabi (my daughter). :D One of Gabi's school friends rang her yesterday to find out if they were going to be in the same class! Remember when that was your biggest worry? We're all set to go here; lunchboxes are clean, bags are packed and uniforms have been tried on and found fitting.
