My families adventure on the road to oz via Germany

What a week , wondered how i fit it all in.

This week has been so hectic the fancy dress night was a hoot on Monday, the kids school plays were really good , i managed to get my assignment done and sent off. i even managed to fit a shopping trip in with my friend so we could get the desirable underwear for under the ball gowns.

Last night was the christmas ball and i really enjoyed it, there were a few people gave me hassle, one a German lady who im on a 'hello how are you type of relationship' She told me she thought i was the most lonliest woman she had ever met and always grumpy. Thankfully i just told her that just because i dont hang around in a big group of fellow army wives doesn't make me lonley  nor am i grumpy. I think the booze made me brave. i also told her that im just not an 'in your face type of person'

I also had the workshops octopus drag me up to dance, i felt ill after having the misfortune to dance with him. Thankfully the other gentlemen who asked me to dance were charming and didn't mind my two left feet when trying to waltz with me.

I even woke up this morning with out a hangover or feeling too tired considering it was gone 3am before i got to my bed.

When ive got photos of the do i will add them on.

Tommorow i have a review at the drs to see how things are after taking the thyroxine. Then we have a week to get the boys christmas pressies. so another hectic week beckons.

Our good friends have agreed to store the kids big pressies at their house and when we are due back from Bispringer heide will put them around the tree with a note from santa. (we can only take small gifts with us hidden in the suitcases.
