Don't belive in the stars?

I know it all seems like a bunch of hogwash... but bear with me... Mercury Retrograde

is running rampant..... what Mercury R_x is other than to say Mercury represents, among other things, communication, information and travel and retrograde is about things going backwards! What this means is everything in our modern lifestyle starts to suck big time...

This week - at the top of the list one of my best friends and I will possibly never speak to one another again and my mobile and emails have been going haywire - either not sending or recieving - or me getting SMSs from people where they'd sent it days ago.

TODAY - the car blew up this morning on the way to Seaworld, we spent the day at the mechanics, trying to recoup some sort of fun in the day we went to the DVD store to get some new DVDs out - and all the ones the kids wanted were out already, when I did get home clutching Dora the explorer and one of Diego ( of help me .....a double horror) our DVD player stopped working ( fortunatly the playstation ran them) my blender has chucked a hissy fit, the washing machine has sprung a leak. I'm too nervous to think of anything else in case that energy gets sucked away too.

If I survive the week, I'll come back and tell you how we went

Marching at Anzac Day

As always we went to Dalveen and did the whole Anzac Day thing. Its the first time that Lilly has marched with me - she wore My Grandad Mitchells medals, I wore Uncle Jacks and Morgan wore my dads.

It was an unusually warm day - not even a frost in the morning!

It was heartening to have so many people come out and clap while the march went past. I can't but help have tears in my eyes most of the day.

The RSL was very quiet at lunch time - a shame as it used to be heaving.. I think next year we will go to one of the other cafes that was open along the street - as I have to agree with my parents - the food has gone down in quality dramatically -the service very slow.
