To move, or not to move...

Hi everyone.  Well I've spent a fair amount of my weekend thinking about transfers.  I have started to fill out my transfer at school (as you can't do it online, it has to be through the school intranet stuff). 

My main motivation is to save in school care fees!   I sat down Sat night and worked out that I'm paying close to $800 a month!! AHHH!  I thought it was less...  So I want to take the girls to school with me.  Another reason is definately the distance and wear and tear on my car. 50kms a day is wearing it out (I realise that some people travel heaps further than me!!)!  Finally, I think after about 7 years at Cab East it's time for a change!

So then of course the question is, where to?  I thought about Lawnton (has a good name now I'd say mostly thanks to Tracy)!  Thought about Kurwongbah (where the girls are already).  Thought also about Undurba, Petrie, Dayboro....  hmmm... anyone have any thoughts about all of this?  I would love some other people's input.

Then of course, I think, do I stay at Cab East, on prep and perhaps work 4 days a week like I will be soon.  I know the school, the staff, I LOVE prep and there is a big change coming with the new round of funding.

Hmm...guess I'll just have to wait and see.  Am seeing the staffing officer Thursday.  It's such a big thing!  Can't believe how nervous it makes me!

Netball...with photo!

Hi all!  We had our 2nd week of netball this morning.  The girls were up early and SO excited to go again (no netball last week)!  It's a bit of a drama to get photos whilst they play, so I took a snap of them before the game.  So cute!  Abbie had a ball and Caitlyn's team won, 20-0.  They were both exhausted tonight, but Caitlyn managed to keep talking about how much she loved the game today whilst she was in bed!!!

Hope you are all well and that you all have a fantastic Mother's Day!!!

Signing off,

Overflow!!!!

Well, my long weekend was fabulous and lovely but the end....not quite!  I started to run a bath for the girls yesterday afternoon, when Sharryn and family came over and well, you can guess what happened!  I forgot the bath until a wall of water started to fall whilst we were standing under the house!  ARGHH!!

We ran upstairs to lots of water flooding out of the bathroom!  Not only did we have flooding, but also the power switched off!!!  The safety switch would not let us turn it back on!  So off we went to Sharryn and John's for dinner (thanks again guys!) and home in the quiet house for bedtime!  Lights were OK, thank Goodness!

So very disorganised this morning (and without breakfast due to no milk, toast etc) I took off for work.  Then had to do a PD til 7pm tonight and didn't get home until 8pm.  So a pretty crap end of weekend and day.

We have power back upstairs and internet (thank God!!!).  So I hope you are all having a better couple of days than I've had!!!!

Scrapping Fun!

Just thought I'd share my creations from last night.  Had a ball!  As always, the photos aren't the best, but you get the idea!  Now to wait for ESK!!!!

By the way, I know my cards are upside down but it took FOREVER for them to upload, so not going to attempt it again!!!!

Have a great long weekend!!!
