Around Here: January 2017 Edition

Around here things have been busy.

Around here the house is an absolute mess. We have christmas stuff half packed away and half scattered through the lounge room. We have camping things still waiting to be put away after getting back from a week away. We have back-to-school supplies thrown in there and my craft stuff in the dining room to top it all off.

Around here I am thinking about what it is I want from this year. What goals do I want completed, how do I complete them and what things I want more or less of.

Around here I am ready to make changes to make this life, my life, the life that I want.

Around here it is still super hot.

Around here there have been lots of fun family time - art galleries, camping trips, movie days and just playing together at home with toys or board games. Always try to get the most of holidays that we can.

Around here I haven't really scrapbooked at all this year. Can't wait to finish up December Daily and see the finished product.

Around here there is about to be TWO school kids. I can't wait to hear how their first days went and get lots of cuddles.

Around here I am looking forward to Febuary which should be a much quieter and simple month for us.

Around here We have been busy doing lots and lots of Christmassy thing

Around here I haven't done a single page of my december daily. Hoping to get some pictures printed                  tomorrow and then start. The kids go to their dads house around lunch time on Christmas day and I have a few days to myself to work on it then.

Around here I recently finished my Certificate ||| in Community Services. I am hoping this helps me get a job next year.

Around here one of our pet birds died recently. It was hard to deal with and explain to the kids but I think we managed fairly well. This is one of those times when I really hated being single. Dealing with this by myself was not awesome but oh well its done now and still get brought up and discussed a lot.

Around here it is hot. Like so so so so hot. It is also stormy so often can't even head to pool or beach to cool down.

Around here Emma and Eddie finished kindy/school. Loving having more time with them while on holidays

Around here I have finished wrapping Christmas presents and can't wait to watch them be unwrapped. I have tried to be thoughtful in all things I've bought but have gone a bit overboard.

Around here there is only 3 sleeps til Christmas - not including tonight since the kids are already sleeping ;)


(So apparently I didn't actually upload this the other day when I wrote. whoops. Better late than never right?)
