We went out to Gregorys Gorge on Saturday for the day. Wow it was hard going. Caleb (13) was just starting to get a bug which we didnt know was coming. I had just finished a night shift so was not really in what one would call high spirits and our driver talks a lot which is great if your not really tired and a sick kid is brewing in the back. We thought we would shoot out there have a look and a swim then head back. It turns out that the 4x4 track is only about 30ks but took just under 2 hours to get through (bugger about the whiplash). But the gorge is oh my gosh soooo beautiful. It is like a oasis in the middle of the desert. If you were lost out there you would literally die from thirst but the gorge could be just a few hundred metres away from you and you would miss it. We will go back and camp one day when it is cooler for sure.
The band seems to be a bit looser now so will have a fill in the next few weeks. Menopause (at 43) has hit with a vengence. I thought it was a piece of piss until last week when the hot flushes hit. OH MY LORD. We as woman are just ripped off. I am hoping beyond hope that they dont last long.
Nothing else to report. Add me as a friend on facebook if you want to check out the photos of the gorge trip. Just search Dianne Moar. xx Blog ya

I never went to the Dr. I ummmed and ahhhed about it for a few days then thought how silly I was being getting a fill when I am already restricted. We are going to Perth for a few days over Easter and I thought how miserable it would be to only be able to sip fluids for the whole time, So I have to stop eating M and Ms and drinking litres of ice coffee and behave. Ha .......................too easy!
Yesterday was a terrible drive to work. I am one (I don't really know anyone else who is as hopeless as me) of those people who only seem to see stuff when I am driving over the top of it which explains a couple of cyclists a few years ago. I'm alright on the road its just well other people who may not be. Yesterday I'm looking at this whole group of about 20 birds sitting on the road and I'm thinking 'stupid birds why do you leave it till the last minute. One of these days you are gonna leave it too late to fly off ' by the time I had finished thinking all that I had driven over the top of them and i realised it was some sort of flightless bird with lots of chicks. It was so awful. There were bits of birds flying (s'cuse the pun) up everywhere. I felt so bad that I bawled the rest of the way to work lol.
We just had our house all landscaped. So glad to get rid of the red dirt. Such a relief. Sadly one of our dogs thinks hes really smart bringing us a plant so today I am off to buy some chili paste and I am going to smear it all over the retic and plants in the hope that will deter him.
We went camping the last two weekends at Millstream which is a national park. Its really lovely there which is hard to see when you are from a magnificent country like NZ but after 10 years of Perth and sand for dirt I can really appreciate Millstream. The problem was the heat at night. Andy and I were sitting up at midnight dipping our clothes into our esky which still had some ice in it then putting our clothes back on. So hot and soooo many bugs. Still it was a neat experience but next time I think we will probably go in winter.
No more news from me. Hope all is well with you. Blog ya soon xx

Im going for a fill on Friday. Not sure why as I am already tight but itll get a few kilos off before I go for a trip back to Perth which will be good.
I just finished my third night shift and man it takes it out of me. Must be an age thing but I am completely knackered. Wish I could win lotto as everyone else does. Oh well.
My days at work have not been anywhere near the last post so thats a good thing. It was all about working with a woman who measures her penis daily. She really gets off in acting like some king kong and that day she picked the wrong person on the wrong day. By the end of the day although I didnt have an apology she was very very pleasant to me cos I think she knew her game was up (probably cos I told her as much). It all makes me sound big and tough which Im not I have more of a problem of not being able to keep my mouth shut so people think I will take on anything and although that is probably closer to the truth than I care to think it still affects me particularly a day or two later when I find I get really down and emotional and I get itchy. Must be like a nervous rash or something so anyway I worked with her last night and she was fine. The amazing thing is how many of the other staff patted me on the back and said they really cheered me on when I tore her down and that they were glad someone finally did it. How many people put up with shit and say nothing which begs my question. How do they sleep at night cos if I dont deal with something I wake up whacking the pillow or I wake all the time having vivid dreams about the person pissing me off. I dont know how people just let it go. I do wish at times I could because I can be more of a person to fear than to like which makes me sad sometimes. Another oh well! Hope you are all well. Will post again after my fill. Ohhhh and I am going to talk to him about a tummy tuck.

I HAD A COMPLETELY ****** DAY. YEP I MEAN SUPER ******! I AM GONNA TELL YOU ABOUT IT WHEN I HAVE CALMED DOWN AND CAN BREATHE EVENLY AGAIN. PITY I CANT (COS ITS WRONGGGG) PUNCH SOMEONE IN THE HEAD.
