Back to Reality...

Well, even though I don't have paid employment currently, it still seems that it is easy to fall into holiday mode, and let the daily routine lapse a little...

Today for us meant back to reality, cleaning up the house, back to homework (as Rory calls me struggling with Statistics - I simply call it Hell), and back to all those little jobs that have been let go.

Rory has gone to her Dad's for a couple of nights, I do miss her terribly when she's not here, I'm not sure how to describe it - I feel like something is missing, or that constant nagging feeling in the back of your mind that you have forgotten something.

Grandma's birthday party was great yesterday, I swear Rory was more excited than when it was her birthday! Up two hours earlier than normal, and then completely hyper until eventually I just said we were going just so she might calm down. Didn't work. Anyway, between the Kelly's, Zischke's and us there were 8 kids, so that tired her out soon enough. Good sleep when she got home too!

Friday means a round trip to Brisbane, which is 7 hours in the car for us, all to see one (very nice) doctor. However, a necessary evil, and over the last two years I have gone from monthly visits to every 3 months, so I shouldn't complain. Financially it's a bit of a blow, travelling like that is expensive, but there is people alot worse off than me so I try to not complain too much about it.

Anyways, off to check my to do list, I'm sure I must have some things I can cross off the list by now. Would have got more done, except silly me didn't realize there was a holiday today, so tomorrow will have to do.
