Heart Foundation Collection.

About two months ago I reveived a phone call at
Cliff's for him from the Heart Foundation wanting
to know if he would do the collection for them
over one of the weekends in September. As he
works both Saturday and Sunday I said that I
would do the collection for him.

Well the first two week ends were washed out.
Who in their right mind wants to walk up and
down the street in drizzle?

Of course there are only three week ends in
September. The last one reserved for the AFL
Grand Final, which this year was played between
St. Kilda and Collingwood, which is Don Jr's team.

But it was a beautiful day so I went out at 10 a.m.
There were only 12 houses in the street and four
did not answer. So I was finished by 10.45 a.m. so
that was not all that bad. I collected $33.

Angela Turns 30!

Angela turned 30 on the 13th of this month. I dropped
around to see her on the weekend before with a card but
as usual she was not at home.

I believe she was going away for her birthday weekend
with friends. Meg was orginally going to go but
the program was changed as she claimed it was too
young for her so she didn't bother to go after all.

I left the card in Angela's door but as usual have not
heard a word from her.

It is giving me the shits that I have to be the one
to ring or call around. She only works part time and
the two girls are in school, so why can't she contact
me for a change???

Emila's First Birthday.

Sarah's daughter had her first birthday two weeks ago
Saturday.

It was by written invitation only. Though Sarah bumped
into her 'aunty' Kath (great aunt to Emila) at Mid Valley
and verbally asked her to come. Neither 'great uncle'
Don, 'great aunty' Meg nor great grandmother Gloria
were invited.

Considering Sarah now only lives about six blocks away
from me in Morwell, less than a kilometer, you would
think I might get a visit.

But considering she still owes me nearly $600 from when
she went to visit her dying grandfather (my ex husband)
two years ago and I asked her to pay me back at $30 a
fortnight and she has not paid one cent I guess I don't
hear from her beacuse she is feeling a bit guilty, though
I doubt that. If I had money she would be all over me.

Welxcome Elizabeth Janette Richardson-Roberts.

What a mouthful for a little girl who weights in at 7 and
a half pounds!!(a little over three kilos.)

Karen Roberts had her baby at 3.20 a.m. on Friday 10th
September in the back seat of Chris's car, in the
hospital carpark!

Mum and baby doing well and sent home at midday on Saturday
the 11th September, 2010.
