That is actualy one of the best updates i have read on here, quite simply because it is an actaul slice of life, warts an all. You seem to have coped incredibly well where some may have just collapsed completely. I hope that if our experiences are anywhere near the same as yours then we cope as well as you appeared to have done. Lots and lots of luck to you all for the future.

what a wicked wicked post:thumbsup:
I love your honesty and your humour. I'm glad your daughter is more settled; as that must have been bloody stressful on top of the other things you had to get through.
cant wait for the second installment, lots of action and adventure in your household.
good luck:thumbsup:

Hi everyone, thanks for all your comments. Found out on Monday night the house sale had fallen through for the third time, I missed lunch with the BE girls at the Boat yesterday because Heather had got it into her head that she would skip school so she could come with me....she's gone to school today though.

We've got another real estate agent coming to do an appraisal tonight but I'm at the point where I think we may just take it off the market, at least then we could put air con in, I've had so many melting moments recently I'm truly thankful I wasn't made from wax!!

We've started doing the odd bit of fishing at the weekends, (caught my 1st fish on Saturday) which is a great stress reliever, some dozy cow walked straight into my line and it got caught in her pony tail...lol.

We've been and still are going through a rocky patch but I'm laughing and smiling more than ever. We are all in good health and that is all that matters!!!
