Half Way Point You Beauty

Today was the half way point of my chemo ten weeks to go with those big needles and five more blood tests and today the Professor told me that I will have to do a Ultrasound to make sure the treatment is not affecting my liver.I have put back the weight so its now on a diet and to do a walk each morning and in the afternoon I use the walking machine and then the vibrating machine this helps the circulation and is supposed to take of weight.

The New Friend

I decided to have the weekend off so we went to Yarrawonga for a break away from the work at home the weather was perfect and it was the first time Glenda has had a stone grill it was yummy and then I won $88 in one drop of the machine I was only playing one coin as it was getting low should have been two never mind that's the luck of the draw.

When we arrived home our new friend was out to greet us and he is getting used to us as he no longer heads back into the drain just keeps an eye on us as we pass.

Nice Day

A great day again and today we lifted the carpet and found that it was on top of lino then when we got the lino out underneath was lots of 1959 sun newspaper boy did I have a ball reading the ads and some of the stories brought back memories even Prince Charles when he was a boy but the best part is it is imprinted onto the floor very strange.Then latter I went outside and here was this massive Lizard sunning on the grass I kept an eye on him and out popped a second one but I only got a photo of one.I found the roof has still got a drip as I could hear it so its of with the roof again as soon it gets fine its a real problem might have to replace a few sheets of iron but that's a summertime job.

Baby sitting at Port Fairy

Over the weekend we went down to Port fairy to Baby Sit Chelsea and Emily and as the weather was so good we met them in Warnnambool and enjoyed a bit of time at the Botanical gardens feeding the ducks this was on Saturday and on Sunday we took them to a school fair in Port Fairy it was here they had a great time but Glenda took of when the wildlife park man had a snake out and was showing everyone he also had lots of other young animals that the girls loved.

The Mighty River Murray

Hello we just came back from Echuca as I wanted to go and see the amount of water that is in the Murray and it has quite a bit but I have seen it much higher years ago,while we were there we went out to Turrumbury hotel and had the best steak ever it was just so tender and tasty then back to Echuca to play the machine and we started with $20 each I pulled the $40 I had won and put it back in my pocket and then went and had a coke but Glenda finished up with $145 so we are in front this is rare.The motel we stayed at was the Caddle on the Murray and yes it was right on the side of the Murray River and a comfortable room.
