The past few days!

The past few days....


Mossman Gorge.....lovely


Night Swimming at the Lagoon in Cairns.....I was on the edge wearing a fleece jacket!!!


Thorntons Beach Daintree National Park.....reflection too!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUCA!!!....Birthday Cake for lunch!! Well when it is that big and the heat will ruin it - we may as well eat the whole thing!!


Kids and a huge Kauri Pine....Lake Barrine.


Snorkelling at Lake Eacham....boys and their underwater toys!!


Swiss Family Robinson....at least we would be able to live on coconuts!!


Swimming in the beach that potentially could have had Crocodiles!! I didn't believe my husband at the time however back with Tanya (an authority on most things Queensland) - there really could have been crocs there!! When I told the kids "There could have been Crocs in the water" - Luca said "why would there be shoes in the water?" - he was thinking Crocs footwear!!

Oh and a lovely breakfast with a fabulously lovely blogger who was also on holiday.

It's Fun and it's FREE!!

Queensland really has things organisied for family entertainment - and they are free! Wait until I get some photos of the Waterway here in Townsville (we forgot the Camera yesterday) but we will be back there. Another fabulous place to go that is FREE - no wonder we want to move north!

Holiday Snaps

Heading North

A few days here should do the trick!!

Then some relaxing in Townsville!!

And all a hell of a lot warmer than Canberra!!

Will post soon.

shelly

PS. Have other Blogspot bloggers noticed that some of the posting options have gone - or is it just me?? No choice of Fonts, Colours etc....maybe I pressed something???

Exam Wrap Up!!

Exam ......Should have focused on this....



Rather than this!!!


Semester 1 finished!!! Have already binned most of my notes - I will never read them again and would have trouble to make sense of them anyway!!

I will spend the next 5 weeks being a nice person!!! Yippee!

Can't be bothered cramming!!

...I don't care what Barbie calls her bits....and i don't care that I have wasted a day and not studied for my 9am exam!! I have played god knows how many games of bloody Freecell, gone out to lunch, had my neighbour over for coffee a chat and a long cuddle of her new baby, a few loads of washing, a brief sweep of the floor, looked up all kinds of people on Facebook, read some books to my kids, eaten a lovely dinner that a friend cooked me, chatted for ages to another friend on the phone....now waiting for my husband to come home and we can have a glass of wine....
This is so "un me" - but I have already passed the unit and if I don't know the stuff I need to know by now then I never will!! I will still be a great teacher even if I put penis and scrotum in the wrong place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS. if this post is sounding a bit weird - read previous post!

I hate thinking of a title!

What would you rather do?? Blog and Internet surf for hours or knuckle down and learn the correct names of male and female genitalia?? I have an exam tomorrow and we could be presented with some diagrams to label!!

Actually given the chaos around the house at the moment I think I would rather hang out with Barbie!!! What do you think her bits are called????

...getting bigger!!

My project of the year is slowly but surely progressing and getting bigger!!



New way of writing!!



Can I have a small chocolate milkshake please?
I would hate to see large!!





A friend and her Malaysian Mum came over to show me how to make these!! They are delicious!! Green pancakes filled with a coconut and brown sugar mixture!!
