Im done , after a couple of years blogging here. im done, im going to start blogging on facebook.The only reason i come here lately is to blog and dont seem to find time to check out other peoples blogs, i can go to facebook and contact people in real time chat. Enough justification my decision is made.

Wow! what a great sailing trip. The stay on the boat the night before and an extra night after made it seem like we were away forever, just what we needed.

It was fantastic to go away with our friends. their were more laughs, music, partying and dancing then i have ever seen on that boat. We had all our friends from our sunday night get togethers and Darren flew up from brisbane (used to do sunday nights too) so it was Sunday night every night.

The weather sucked, it blew harder and rained more than i have ever seen on that boat but it didnt matter. we all had a ball anyway.

Then we had to brave floodwaters and get home. Our trip took a bit longer and we got home at 4. Just enough time to have a shower and go to work 5-9. I was/ am shatterred and it will take a bit to recover

My knee is shot (from before i went away) my calves are killing me (apparently from no shoes and sliding around on deck) and im sooooooooo sunburnt on my head. So i feel like crap but someehow so refreshed.

I have been getting into facebook, catching up with some people. I chatted with a mate who is policeman in gympie last night and i havnt caught p with in ages. I have dealt with my initial resistance and i am liking it. A friend of mine blogged the other day on facebook. I was blown away getting notification that she had blogged. I am thinking that i might change my blog over to facebook (have to figure that out) then family and friends would be notified when i blog. I would of course miss out on the random friends that come by. Have to think about that one...............

Another big day ahead. the staff did a great job of running the shop while we were away. Just have to find out what mess there is when we get there today.

Not echarged batteries just run down in a better way. Cant wait to get together on sunday and catch up for a de brief

what is it with facebook??? i went and started using it properly the other day, iv always had it set up so i had some invites and now i got "friends". So i log in to check it out and find myself looking at nothing for ages, i have to say, this is crap and log off. i ant believe it.

i work 3-9 tonight and it feels like a day off. my knees are sore and im just plain old and tired. im gonna go buy some new ink cartridges for printer (refilled too many times me thinks) and that will do until about 2 when i will start doing something about getting ready for work. Kath has done her back in just t make things fun. So we both working ourselves into he ground.

Had a good chat to gemma last night. Sounds like shes having fun. Finding out a bit more about grandma and leash (because shes living with em), good and bad. Good learning experience for her, but i still miss her :(

i got nothing..........................

please comment and let me know what you doing????

today will be a better day

PLanning to have a few days off next week, sunday through thursday and go sailing whitsundays on kaths parents boat. http://www.tallshipadventures.com.au/alexander_stewart.htm

So to make that happen , we have staff for the day to day. We need someone to decorate the donuts. I will go in and bake for the time away . Connor is learning the process, it not hard just gotta be organised. im getting a checklist together and a daily diary with some instructions, so he should be good. We will be out of phone range most of the time so hope he knows what hes doing by time we gone, lookin good so far.

last night jasmine woke up (well sort of sleep walking) crying and came out to me sitting in office, ipicked her up and cuddled her to my chest and settled her down. she was sort of sitting on my lap and must have thought she was on the toilet because she procedded to pee, not just a little bit but really let it go! i couldnt do anything so just let her go, saying, your not on the toilet, then she finished. and continued her cuddle. so we took her wet knickers off and put her back to bed, then i took my wee pants off and kath mopped the office, we couldnt stop laughing, she peed my pants!!

parents will be amused by that, most prople without kids will think its gross, but just another day for daddy.

i checked out facebook for the first time last night. what a time thief! search- donutboy@bigpond.net.au

i set it up ages ago and havnt used it, so ive got a few invites, mostly family. so ive got some friends already, then i searched and found some more. couldnt believe how long this all took. while doing this i was using my old mate msn and chatting with a friend in brisbane, who is on my face book, and we chat for hours, hes coming up for my birthday and will be great to catch up

took some photos with the camera yesterday, must transfer to pc.

my kneee has given in, too much standing i guess, so it has happened before and i have kneee support which i am wearing today, but basically i am falling to pieces.aaaaargh

so off to work i go, today is big training day for connor, bring it on. today will be a better day
