Rain Rain -

It is wet wet wet. The rain is absolutely pouring down today. Tabi said on facebook she has flood signs. Not surprised. Thank goodness my lawns got mowed on Sunday. Very good - I baked him a choc cake, and some choc chip biscuits, good system.

Saw Niki today for a coffee so that was good. She had been up since 2am with Hannah, so that wasnt so good.

Went to WINZ to drop off forms - and typically Weds only they dont open till 9.30am. So will now just post them.

Very proud of my boy who passed 2 out of 5 exams. That was awesome. Funny thing was that they were English and Science. Maths and Social Studies only missed out by about 3 percent on each. Music well - he only got 16%.

Jeremy got the highest in the class for Science. So that was pretty good going.

Palmerston North book fair this Friday - yahoo. Hope the rain stops by then otherwise might have to rethink my whole queuing idea. Was going to be in by 8.30am queuing but maybe not if this rain keeps up.

Had a bit of a downer day yesterday - not sure why.

Someone came in and had a go about Sara - not happy with the way she treats her children while they are at work with her. Mind you she definitely should not be having them in the shop all weekend for the whole day. So I rang Sue and told her - I decided it was one of the things she could deal with.

In the weekend one of my friends kids OD - she is okay now, well out of hospital etc, but her poor parents. They are not coping too good, I dont think children realise sometimes just how much parents do care. Well I know I do about mine, and I dont think I would cope too well at all if my kids did that. Bad enough my mum used to do it all the time when I was a kid, and when i think now what she has missed out on, she would have loved to have seen my kids grow up - and see Kathleen graduate, and Josephine how she has coped with going overseas, etc, and Jeremy - how well he can do things with his hands even though he has a hard time with school work, and jolene playing netball, and how affectionate she is.

Anyway, no real plans for this weekend - besides the Bookfair on Fri, netball and Carole's housework on Sat, and Sunday work.

I am looking forward to the bookfair, but wish I didn't have to work on Sunday.

Must go make my lunch and then do some more St Johns Lifelink phone calls. Rather interesting Phone calls. Get to ask people how they are finding the St Johns alarms. Not too bad a pay. $75 for 10 calls. Option is only for 10 calls though.

Well I mightnt write often but boy I have made up for it today.
