Meg did not just invite family but some friends from
work and general friends.
Cliff came and he was looking very good. He even had
a hair cut.
I drove up to Yallourn Nth and picked up Kath. I for
got to put petrol in the car before i left and the
little red man camr on just as we arrived back at my
house.
It was to be at 6 p.m. at first but then she changed
it because Lisa could not get there before 7 p.m. but
I picked Kath up at 5.45 p.m. anyway and we looked
through a scrapbook magazine after I put some petrol
in the car.
We were not the last to arrive in fact we walked in
at the same time as Cliff. who sayed till 8.15 p.m.
before he went to chess.
I stayed till 9.15 p.m. and then left but because it
was a school night Angela left about 8.45 p.m. as she
had bought Lacy along who was the only child, so she
found it a bit boring.

Jessie Turns 18!
It was at Amigoes in Traralgon. When I turned up,
I found that Kim had come down after all, but not
Pam, she is still not well.
Kim had arrived on Thursday and was flying back on
Sunday (the same day that Aud will be leaving).
Angela was there with Rob and Lacey but not Broady.
Sarah and Paul and Amelia came. Melissa was not
there but Jarrod her eldest boy came in her place.
He will be 16 later this year.
Don and Lisa came but not with the kids. Meg and
Mick came. Kath and tribe, including Kirsten.
Brett was there too, he sat opposite Jess and her
boyfriend.
I was looking at the haul that Jess got and asked
who had given her the red lip purse. Pam had sent
it down.
Then Kim started, she said that she had not received
ONE Mother's Day card this year. After all she had
given up and done for her children. She had not even
received ONE card for her 60th Birthday last year.
Kim has never known what it was to "I'll get your
back and next time you get mine" It has always been
about what she can get. I guess that goes back to
her childhood. She does feel very hard done by in
life.
Kim carried on in a negative frame so much so that
Aud got up and went down to the end of the table to
talk to Don Meg and Kath. She even said to them that
it was all the negative talk that had driven her away.
Aud was not impressed that Kim was ordering two drinks
at a time, though Kim said to me that the service was
so slow it was the only way to go. It meant that she
was never without a drink in her hand. She also said
that she had 'drunk up before she came out, so it would
not cost as much when she was out.' Perhaps this was
why she was a bit put out with people.
I had to laugh when Kim brought up the fact that one
time she came to my place and had to serve up a meal
from my kitchen floor as the bench was completely
covered with STUFF. She seemed to equate good house
keeping with being a good mother. I know she always
tried to keep her house spick and span, but house work
was never one of my top prorities. I perferred to
spend the time with my kids. I always said that the
kids are only with you for maybe 20 years but the
housework would always be there. Of course it still
needs doing, because I'm a lazy shit.
Thankfully I sat next to Kim and kept her talking
to me so that Jess was free to enjoy her night.
After the dinner Jess went to her 18th party at
her dad's house with all her own friends.
Some of the others went on to the pub for drinks later.

Saturday 14th May 2011
Picked Aud from her motel. She wanted to go shopping
for a warm coat that could be worn in the rain as well.
As it was nearly l1 a.m. by the time I picked her up
I suggested a cuppa and early lunch. I wanted to go
to Zzip but it was raining and therewas not one car
space out the front. So we ended up going straight
to Center Plaza. Even then I could not believe ghow
many cars were in the center of course they all wanted
to park under neath and I must say I was lucky to
find a spot and it was the furhest I ahve had to park
from the escalator. I dropped Aud off and found the
spot. I told her to wait at the top of the escaltor f
or me. But of course when I got there. ther was no
sight of her and I couldn't ring her as I left my
mobile phone at Cliff's on the charger. I walked
around for nearly ten minutes before I spotted her
in one of the clothing shops.

Audrey Comes For A Visit
I turned up at lunch time at the shop on Friday 13th
to find that Audrey was there. Cliff had vaguely
mentioned that "Mum might be down tomorrow " on
Thursday.
So for once a Friday the 13th did not bring bad
things but something good.
I rang Meg and she came over had had lunch with us.
Audrey was staying at a motel in Traralgon, as she
has trouble getting her leg over the edge of the bath
now to have a shower at Cliff's house. Last time
she had to go around to Sue and Allen's and I think
she felt it put them out too much.
So that night we all had tea at the Traralgon R.S.L.
that is Aud, Cliff, Meg, Mick and my self. So that
was another good thing as we all got to meet Mick.
He does not seem to be too bad.
I drove Aud to the motel as she said she had a long
day and Meg and Mick came around to Cliff's where
Cliff stayed up to 12.30 a.m. playing chess with Mick.

Follow on from Another Day
Donald finally came to see me at the shop on Friday
and he claimed that the reason he had not contacted
me for Mother's Day was that his phone was not working
properly. I wonder why he did not use Lisa's mobile
phone in that case. Even then he did not actually
wish me Happy Mothre's Day or even say that he hoped
my day had been nice.

Just Another Day!
Yes Kath said she had no money on her phone and no
she never got a present or card from Nathan and
they were so busy running around with sports for
the kids and Nathan that they never visited Toss.
Toss dropped off Kirsten on Saturday night and
picked her up Sunday night so they had no need to
go see her. They couldn't even find a public
phone while they were out and make a call on that!
Donald claimed he didn't know what day it was! How
could a man live to be 36 and NOT KNOW that Mother's
Day is the first Sunday of May. I bet he never
forgets when Father's Day is.
Kath said that Meg rang and abused her for not
calling. GO MEG! It was Meg that told me what
Donald said as he has still not contacted me.
Kath and Nathan with Ryley and Dayne came down
to the shop yesterday and saw me and gave me a
lovely card.

Mother's Day 2011
Well what a bust. Meg rang to wish me a Happy Mother's,
Day but I never received a message or phone call from
Don Jr or Kath.
Really there is no excuse. Donald is going out with Lisa
and surely she would have wanted to see her mother for
Mother's Day so Donald must have been aware of the day.
As for Kath surely even Nathan would have bought her at
least a card for the fact that she has had four children
by him!! So she too must have bee aware that Sunday was
Mother's day! Even if she had made a quick call from Toss's
landline when they went up to see her for Mother's day.
But no nothing!
