I'm Baaaaaaaaaack

Hi again! I know it's been quite a while but things have been so mind numbingly crazy here that I just cannot even begin to know whether I am coming or going!!
First my computer has decided to die on me so I have been having to use computers wherever I can which sometimes can be a trifle difficult now that uni has finished for the year! I am using my auntys' computer today and it is very fast and I love it!! hehe I am trying to find the problem on my computer myself before I get someone in but so far I think I am adding to the problem rather than rectifying it! I will try a little more than give up I think!
As I said Uni has finished for the year and I did ok- 1 distinction and 2 passes but I wanted to do a lot better than that but there is always next year. What really is annoying though is that for both subjects that I got passes in I was only about 2% away from a credit, just a shame that I couldn't have done just that LITTLE bit better............ Next year I do all teaching subjects and two blocks of prac which should be interesting.
We are quite settled at our new place now and quite happy there, we had an extremely busy month of packing, moving, unpacking and then getting the old place completely cleaned inside and out! I got all of my bond back so I was very happy and relieved. I don't want to move again for a long time to be sure!!
Then hot on the heels of moving was the end of the kids' school year which was also a busy time with swimming, parties, concerts and the like! I had tuckshop thrown in for good measure also!! I made 26 jelly cups for Mika's breakup party which was a lot of fun and the kids just loved them! I had to be creative in my method of getting them to the school- I made a tray from cardboard and put an ice pack and iced towels on top of them all to protect them from the heat! But it all worked out.
Now the kids are excitedly waiting for Christmas and it is coming very very quickly!! We went to a Christmas Festival last Saturday night and EVERYTHING was free!! We all went on rides, ate sausage sizzles, ice blocks and drank lots of softdrink, were entertained by singers, Christmas Carols and the like, and Cody got his face painted. It was a fantastic day out and we all had a ball. Conor was so tired when we got home that he could barely keep his eyes open, even to go in the bath!! Next week we are going to see Harry Potter which the kids are very excited about to be sure!
It is stinking hot here at the moment, yesterday it was about 37 degrees! It is just awful!
I have more to say but no time at the moment so will have to go! Chow!
