Talhia's 12th Birthday.

On Sunday 10th Cliff and I went to Yallourn Nth to celebrate Talhia's
12th Birthday.

I can't understand why Nathan has to come to OUR celebrations of the
kids birthdays when he also celebrates their birthdays with HIS FAMILY.
Kath does not go to his family's celebrations! It really puts a damper
on the proceedings!

Kath cooked the cake she did it in the style of the rainbow cake from
the cheesecake shop in Traralgon and as that cost $45 no-one was going
to buy it even with the $10 discount voucher. Kath's cake tasted
awesome. We all had at least two pieces!

Wednesday 13th August

I picked up Meg from work and took her to Claudia's on the other side
of town for lunch so we ordered lunch and then went to the optometrist.
We picked some frames and there were two I liked that Meg "approved" of.
The lens were $100 and the frames $280. I got only $200 from Medibank.
So instead of the $150 I usually pat it cost me $180! But when I need
new lens it is easier to put them in metal frames than in the plastic
ones I usually get. So next time it should nit cost me anything!

Lunch was ready when we got back. Meg said that she enjoys the food
there better than Café Crème and I have to agree and I much prefer
their Iced Coffee.

We agreed we go next week as I have to pick up the glasses and get
them adjusted.

Busy Day 6th August.

Had lunch with Meg as usual but I forgot my purse so she had to
pay for the second week in a row.

After lunch with her I had a second appointment with Luke.
Unlike last week I had made the booking for the afternoon. I
drove around for nearly ten minutes before I could find a space!
Luckily he did not have anyone booked straight after me so I
still got my full 30 minutes.

I had noticed an instant improvement with my lower back but that
seemed to highlight the fact there was a lot of tension in my
neck and shoulders.

So I had him spend half the time on each. I felt really good!
so I booked another session for the 13th.

As I was on that side of town I went around to the optometrist
to book in for an eye test as now with the diabetics I have to
have one every year instead of every two years.

Too tired to go to exercise group. I have not been all term!
But with getting up early for Lena and then lunch and physio I
was really buggered! I think physio relaxes me so much that I
want to sleep. Something which I have not been doing much of at
night and that is why I am so tired all day long!

Gippsland Phyiso

On the Medibank website the only physios were at the Gippsland Physio
Group in Commerical Road. So I made an appointment for Wednesday
morning on the 28th July.

I had the two free sessions with Luke so I booked in with him.

He is quite young and very nice. But then again there is the saying
you know when you are getting old as all the service people you meet
are so much younger than you! My doctor would be in her 30's and I
would say the dentist and physio are in their late 20's.

Anyway he did my lower back and it was WONDERFUL, but I did not use
the free sessions as yet. I'll use those when I am broke from my
lap band operation!!!

Su Ann Tay

Finally got around to checking out the Medibank Private web site.
The only dentists in Morwell under their logo are at the Clock
Tower practice. So I made an appointment.

The dentist I saw was a young Asian girl Su Ann Tay. Unusual to
have a woman for a dentist. I don't think I could hack looking
in people's mouths all day long. What about bad breath UGH!

Anyway she cleaned them all up and said there was not too much
wrong with them considering I have not really had them looked at
for nearly twenty years.

I had to go to Traralgon and get an X ray so she could see what is
going on in the jaw and bring it to her in about 3 months.

Mr. David Scott

I went to see him about doing my lap band operation. I told him
what Mr. Arthur said about opening the previous incision and I did
not want to do that and he said he has to have a look to see what
is happening so booked me into Maryvale on Saturday 30th August
to see what is happening with my other band.

Maddy's Stay Ends Badly.

On the Thursday after her lesson she asked could she stay at
Aunty Tracey's for four nights and I said Yes.

On the Friday I went to Tracey's to take her the custard
tarts she wanted on Tuesday but hadn't eaten and her aunt
said she had NOT seen her since last weekend. She had lied!

I told Tracey I did not have her number and could she get
Maddy to ring me. By Saturday night Maddy had still not rung
rung so I rang her mother who was still in SA and told her
what happened and asked her to get Maddy to ring me!

Still did not hear from Maddy and I rang Karen who came on
Thursday to pick up Maddy's clothes but she would not take the
flavoured milk that was use by the day before.

It's like I have always said to Meg "It's not like the milk
says 'Opps my use by date was yesterday so I had better go
off to-day!'" I find in some cases the milk is still good
up to three days past the use by date.

Anyhow when Karen came I said that Maddy had still not rung
and Karen said that Maddy had told her that she HAD rung.

So she is now lying about that!

Connor's Birthday.

You have to feel for Connor. Every year his mother takes off to play in
Darts competitions and it is always around his birthday!

She couldn't even miss one last year when it was his 13th Birthday!!

I wonder how he will turn out. Will he be a giving adult putting himself
last when it comes to his children or selfish like his mother putting his
wants about those of his children! Can't really blame Karen as she was
brought up that way. Her mother always bought her smokes and put her
bingo above her 5 kids! You learn from your parents.

Anyway this year he was with dad. I had wanted to take him out again to the
city but as I had Maddy that was not going to happen. We went around and
I gave him the drawing stuff and he seemed happy with that. Especially as
it was from Smiggle (He said that is the expensive store from the plaza in
Traralgon, so he had seen it before and looked at the stuff but had never
been given any before!)

He has finally started to grow UP. He is now getting quite tall (and thin).
