Hi all just a quick drop in to say hello and that everything is still fine. I am just over 4 months now and can feel the little one moving. Don't know what it is yet, will be going to the Dr on the 15 Feb then he could tell. The last visit he could not see because the little one was sitting on his bum with his feet in the air and busy very busy.

Our holiday was very nice. Madam won 2nd princess for little miss Van Stadens will post photo's later. She was just to cute walked like a real model. We went to Cape Town for a week to. I have been so busy and also helping out at a friends work. Keeping me busy and a little extra pocket money for me. I could not post due to my internet that was suspended because stupid me forgot to put money in my bank account before we went on holiday so I sorted that all out so now I am back in cyber space. Must catch up on all your sites.

Hope you all missed me like I missed you guys. Can you believe I have been blogging for a year now. Chat soon next time I will post some photo's.

Still alive

2006-11-29T17:40:00.000Z

Hi all hope you all missed me like I missed you all. I have a lot of catching up work to do. With me being pregnant I get so tired so in the day I get a power nap and I have been very lazy to get a prepaid card for the house phone. Sorry hope you all forgive me. Well what have I been up to ok let me start.

Everything is well with the pregnancy all the test came back negative so I was very relieved. And getting on the scale is very depressing seeing those kilograms or pounds rising instead of going down.

The 18th November was a Saturday boy was that a busy weekend. Our friends from Cape Town flew down for the weekend to attend on of our friends wedding. So we visited them on the Friday. The Saturday morning I was up at 7 at a store at 8 to buy a birthday present for a party. 9 the party started and ended at 11. 10:30 we had another party my cousins daughter. The party ended at one and I had to rush home pack her bag to take her to hubbies mom. Rush back to get ready because the wedding started at 3 o'clock boy was that a busy day.

hubbies sister is getting divorced from her husband now. She does not love him anymore. The baby is only 7 months old. Well if you can remember that she just got married to him with no family or friends to enjoy her special day with her she was addicted to anti depressions so she said she was not with herself when she married him. He is so unhygienic on himself he stinks of sweet. He lives informs of the TV and plays computer games until what time in the morning hes a computer geek.
So she moved out. Filed for divorce. She lost some of her little piggies along the way some were. If you find one just let me know so that I could let her know. Ha Ha Ha.

Today I got a fright. My granny is about 75 suffers from diabetic and cant walk with out her cruches. My aunt phoned this morning for me to drive with her my granny fell and broke her leg. I just started crying. When we got there it was her ankle she is not on medical aid so its a disaster at the Local hospital. They took X-rays and it was broken and they did not know if they must operate or not. They have sedated her to put her ankle into place so they took X-rays again and decided not to because the ankle was in the right place. So they just plaster Parrish on the whole leg until her hip. We were so glad they did not have to operate because of her diabetes and her age a operation on her could cost her, her life.

Hope you all are well I am going now I have a lot to catch up on.

Baby at 5 weeks

2006-11-11T14:18:00.000Z

How Big is the Baby at Five Weeks Pregnant?
Pregnancy week 5 isn't much different from pregnancy week 4. During 5 weeks pregnant your baby is still just over a millimeter long. You might say that your baby is about the size of a small grain of rice! However your baby is growing in many other ways. Vital organs continue to develop through this week.

Your Baby's Growth and Development
During the early part of this pregnancy at 5 weeks the central nervous system, muscles, bones and even the heart will begin to form. Early skeletal development is also possible at or around pregnancy week 5. Remember that every person is unique, thus their baby will develop at a different rate from others.

Perhaps the most interesting changes that are occurring during 5 weeks pregnant include those happening in the heart. During this week the heart will begin to divide into separate chambers and start pumping blood. The heart is formed from the middle layer of cells called the mesoderm. Other organs that will develop from this layer include the muscles, cartilage and bone. The primitive placenta and umbilical cord are also developing. The neural tube starts developing in the top layer of cells called the ectoderm. The skin, hair, nails and sweat glands will also develop out of this layer of cells. The lungs, intestines, thyroid and pancreas also develop from a third layer of cells called the endoderm.

Surprise! Surprise

2006-11-11T05:29:00.000Z

Surprise Surprise!! Yes I am pregnant 5 weeks. I was at the gynecologist for a check up yesterday but will have to go next week again because its still to early to see a hart beat. I also had to draw blood because of my blood group being O negative. Danielle is O positive so for that during birth some of the baby's blood goes into your blood stream, so mine is negative and hers positive so my body makes anti body's. So what will happen? I will never have baby's again my blood will actually eat the fetus up. So to avoid that they inject you with 2 syringes full of non anti bodies just after your first birth. So I hope everything is fine. Here is my bump I cant believe it is showing already with Danielle you could only see on about 6 months. I was wearing my normal clothes until 7 months. You guys must help me with names. Ok.

Here is madam as an Angel in her concert they were all so cute. She went on the stage she was doing what she was supposed to looking into the crowd when she spotted us she started waving and jumped off the stage to come call me. So I went with to the stage now she wants me to go in the middle of the stage you just hear this Come Mommy between the singing and all the parents laughing at her.

We went to visit Buddess last night we had a nice Braai (BBQ) here is a photo of the kids nearly falling asleep they were up and going until about ten o'clock.
Hope you all have a nice weekend ok. I have a busy 2 weeks ahead of me. Today I have my cousins little ones party. Next week starting at 9 we have a friend of Danielle's party then my other cousins child party then the evening we have a wedding. So I am going to be busy busy. Will try to take lots of photo's to publish.

Update with a surprise!!

2006-11-02T19:42:00.000Z

Hi all hope you all still doing well. I have good news to share with you. But first some update what I have been up too. Well as usual cleaning, gym (now I wont babble to do that either), making food, looking after big hubby (hubby) and Danielle. We went to the German beer fest I took some photos will post it next time cant get it to my photo file on my phone. Had a nice time at the beach we had a nice braai (bbq). Danielle had a ball with her dad he took her to the little ponds to look at the little fishes.

This Saturday is my baby's first concert and she is a angel well a angel in disguise I tell you. So I am really looking forward to that. And how is my fundraising going for my PC. I cant take it anymore. I am missing out on so much and I see I don't get that much readers anymore. She is growing up so fast. We are actually speak Afrikaans in our home and now she speaks more English then Afrikaans she gets it from her little school they are more English there. So now I speak more English to her. She understands both languages very well. My mom is actually English and my Dad Afrikaans and he could not speak English to save his life so my mom decided to raise us Afrikaans. He would ask you what is your front name from your behind name. (whets your name and surname).

I have a new look here is a photo you cant really see it but its curled now at the back will take another one at a different angel. You cant really see it. Next week I am going to but some streekes in just waiting for the perm to set in. I cant believe the year is nearly gone. It felt like yesterday when the new year started. But not complaining one of these days we are going camping. Talking about camping got so much to do still. Before we go.

Ok here it goes remember I was not feeling so good the past 3 months. Well I got the result today. You tell me what you think it is then I would tell you.

Have to go now. Love you all lots and chat soooon.

Happiness and Sadness

2006-10-22T19:24:00.000Z

Today is my nephew Jurgen's 10th birthday. He is like my own. When he was born my sister and her husband was not married yet so they stayed with us. I use to spend a lot of time with him. I was there when he lit my mothers feather duvy; blaming me, I was there when he unscrewed any screw he could find. I took him to the circus I took him to the swimming pool and everybody though he was mine. I was still in school that time. I did everything with him. I bought him some clothes and a Playstation 2 game for his birhtday. The cutest thing he said was... He was very lazy to walk you always had to carry him. He was the first grandchild so he was spoiled a lot in a good way. So this day his father caught a fish and wanted to show his brother that just lived around the block from him. So he carried the fish and Jurgen had to walk and half way he said Daddy let the fish walk then you carry me. We were hysterical when his father told us.

Today 8 years ago my granny past away. She was so dear to me. A second mother to me. I spent a lot of time with her. She stayed near my school and we stayed on farm about 30km outside our town so I use to sleep over a lot to be with my friends. She was not just my granny she was my best friend to. I smoked like almost a year with her before my parents found out a smoked. When they wanted to tell her she just laughted in their faces telling them its old news.

It so weird. She was born on the 22 July 1922 she died on the 22 October on Jurgens 2nd birthday. Danielle was born on her birthday. She was actually due on the 12th of July but for some odd reason she was just not ready to face the world so 2 weeks overdue she was born on my granny's birthday. I was hoping something would happen naturally but nature knew something was wrong so I went in for a Caesar. The abilical cord was twice around her neck.

Ja I do not get a lot of opportunities to get to the computer you all know the drill already so I have come up with a plan. We must have a fundraiser to raise some money so that I could buy my own computer so that I could post every night. Nothing much has happened in my very interesting life. Its just gym go home, fetch Danielle make food, clean, sleep. And at night I cant even relax at the computer catching up on all my blog buddies due to hubby. I think I must through some sleeping tablets in his cooldrink or something. Hope you all had a nice weekend.

Back with another BANG

2006-10-12T19:25:00.000Z

Well hubby is like in glued to this computer. He watches all the new series and movies. I wish sometimes the computer will crash no, no not really that will mean that I wont beable to blog no I cant live without that. Ja its not that I want to be so quiet its just that I don't get a chance with the computer and if I do I just download everybody blog and read it off line just that I
still know what is happening in Blog o space. So I don't always leave a comment because I cant so I see my visitors count is getting lower and lower because of that.

Well went for my finger prick and my sugar count was 4.4 so it was ok. So my friend suggested that I get a multivitamin and see how it goes. They also said that I might have depression, depression I don't know for what. Well they say the smallest things, things that you think is minor can really bug your subconscious without you even knowing it. There is a few things that bothers me like the thing with hubbies mom and a other few things. So I bought me some vitamins and have been taking them for 2 days and will see how I feel before I go see a shrink.

Started gym cant tell you how nice it is to be back in action. I use to love gym before Danielle. Did max 3 hours a day. Haven't done anything exercise like after Danielle so its about 3 years if you take in the 9 months a had to carry her. I feel so good about myself well not as yet when I look in the mirro but it would be soon. I am really pushing myself to get my body like it was before her. Well I know my stomach wont be like it was but at least I am trying. Sorry but wont be publishing photos of me in action.

Wont bore you to much now. Must get this post publish before hubby gets home again. He went to friends for a drink I told him I don't feel like going, I had to say that too at least get another post in. So hope you all have a nice weekend now.

Back with a BANG

2006-10-09T04:42:00.000Z

Hi all it does not look like you guys missed me because I dont get that much visitors anymore is my blog boring or what.

Whell I was a bit busy to play chauffeur for my aunt because she is not aloud to drive she had the same operation as angel. Had to fetch her grand kids from school and take them to her. Last week it was raining the whole week so hubby could not work so he was glued to the coputer 24/7 you see we get new movies every week on our external hard drive. Movies and series thats not even released on our circuits yet. We just received sesean 2 of Prison Break it Wentworth Miller not the sexiest guy alive I mean I dont like a guy with tattoo's but boy oh boy I will take him with tattoo's and all.

Got my tests back from the doctor after a two weeks and a fight. The doctor just never came back to me with my results. He was out everytime I phoned and left messages. He is not my usual doctor just went to him for the test but I will never do that again know what service I get from my doctor. My aunt just thought that it would be best to go to a new doctor that knew nothing about you. But that just back fired in my face. Everything is normal but my sugar levels are very low. normal should be 3.5 and mine is 3 the nurse said that I should come in to do a finger prick just to check it again.

Danielle is just not scared of anything. Last week saturday I was cleaning the swimming pool and in the filter thingie there was this big frog. So I called her to show her boy I should not have done that. We took him out and through him at the back of our garden now she just wants the froggie. Standing in the corner were we through him, hands on the knees calling padda(froggie) padda come. So I had to go look for a frog at all the toy stores do you think I could find one. After a long search I found one a plastic one. She was so on cloud nine with that frog.

On Saturday she came to me with a ruler in her hand and on the ruler was a cochroach. look mommy goggo. She killed the thing and placed it on the ruler to show me. Guess she gets that from me. Hubby is glued again to the computer he just went out quick so this post was actually for yesterday but I had to save it in draft did not have time to publish. Got to do it before he comes back will have to tell you later about all the other goodies

Miss Mischief!!!

2006-09-24T19:29:00.000Z

playing in the mud this morning. We had a lovely sunny day.

Getting some more mud

Little Miss Muffet. She got hold of my sunglasses. I tell you she is now a real miss busy body. Wish I had her energy somedays.

Madam found out she can open taps. When I got to the bath it was nearly over flowing. She does not want me to sit there she tells me "Go" so I leave her and check every second. I was busy with the dishes when I heard the geyser still running.

The second house hubby is busy with

Hubbies first mayor house he had attempted and a big success its a major big house. Double double garage, cinema room, lounge, kitchen, scullery, study 2 rooms with en-suite, main bedroom with dressing room and ensuite. I did try to take photos inside but my phone cant zoom small enough.

Hope you all had a great weekend we were at home and friends. We made a nice chicken spit braai (bbq) today and the day was such a nice summer day.

Some Tests

2006-09-23T05:49:00.000Z

I have not been feeling well the past 2 months. I am so tired everyday some days a sleep during the afternoons some days not. As soon as I got Danielle all sorted out at night time then I am all over my tiredness then I cant sleep. I only go sleep like 23:oo up during the night, up by six and then here by 11:00 I cant keep my eyes open anymore. Lots of people has been playing my doctor saying it could be you blood pressure, your thyroid, your hormones and cant think of what else.

So I have decided to go to the doctor so that they could run some test. So I went yesterday he said we will test all of that and then take it from there. Danielle does not sleep through. That is the main reason I took her dummy away from her but now I am waiting for her to fully recover from her tonsils. They say it takes about 10 days for them. I spoke to the doctor and told him I don't know if its that too that's really getting to me. So he gave me a bescription something I could give to her at night just to make her more at ease.

I wont give it to her until after she recovered from her tonsils and I see that she does not sleep through. Its been going better since I took her dummy away she only wakes up once crying but that is because she has still got some pain. So I am hoping that she will sleep through now. I am going to give her another week's will only get my test results in next week I think Tuesday, Monday is a public holiday again here in South Africa, National Heritage Day I think. I hope you all have a good weekend now.

We got some nice fest going this weekend but we wont be going because hubbies got a house to finish. I must actually take some photo's to show you its one biiiggg house. It must be finished by the end of this month and he is busy with the next one through the floor of the foundation today. I must go see the gym to hubby signed us both up yesterday but the lady has to speak to head office because I still got a unsettled amount and I am going to give them a hard time because somebody did not do there work the day I cancelled my contract. We will see. I cant wait for Monday to start gym again. Gym was my life before Danielle.

Two weeks

2006-09-21T17:52:00.000Z

Today it has been two weeks since miss madam does not suck dummy (pacifier) anymore. She does not even ask for it. She came the Monday to the drum asking about the goggo and I gave her the dummy and as she was about to put it into her mouth I just told her no its not nice, took it out look at me all puzzled and just through it back into the drum.

At the hospital she found one in the box of toys and went and threw it into the drum. She is not fond of her toweling nappy as well. Maybe it was only a good combination with the dummy. We got our new caravan last night will take some photo's. I cant wait for December, holiday time. On the beach, Braai (BBQ), hearing the waves break as you sleep cant wait.

short post. Hope you all are well.

Going Well

2006-09-20T19:23:00.000Z

Well everything has gone well for my aunt and my soon to be mother in law. My aunt was discharged today she has a little pain but not to bad. She recovered very good. For my mother in law well it will be still a while before she would be discharged she is still in the ICU. Went to see her today. I just hate hospitals and especially the ICU it really gets to me to see all these people on heart machines and every machine you can think of. She is still in a lot of pain but looks very good for someone that had a VERY BIG operation. They might put her in a normal ward tomorrow. All her pipes and all is all coming out tomorrow. We all pray that this would be the last she spends in a hopital and that this operation is a major success.

At the hosital hubbies dad was there to so we reconciled not that there was any vibes between us but he is just a very difficult man to please and to understand you either like him or don't. I never had a problem with him just that one time. I think the whole thing was that I did not kept my mouth shut.He does not like that. So that's another thing off my shoulder. It really bugged me the past few weeks.

I finally got the time to get hold of another driving school. I am not going to the one that I started with because I know the guy. Did not know when we spoke on the phone only saw who he is when he game to pick me up for my lesson. Will see how my day goes tomorrow, I want to go make an appointment for my license then I must give him a call he said then he can prepare me for that. Hold thumps please

In my prayers!

2006-09-17T21:28:00.000Z

Two people very dear to me is having a operation tomorrow. Hubbies mom is having a big operation and I hope that it would be an success so that it would make her life more livable. The past few months was hell for her.In and out of hospital,she suffers from bad acid reflux and she has gone for 4 operations and nothing has helped her. Her lungs are so badly injured of this acid reflux that she has beed in hospital since Wednesday so that they can make sure the lungs are strong enough for the operation. We must all pray for her because her lungs could collapse during surgery but its a chance she is willing to take to make her life more living. They will transfer her to ICU straight after the operation. She is such a cute little lady wont hurt a fly. After my incident with daddy inlaw monster I have not seen him since and according to her he is still cross with me. He can be really childish sometimes. She really wanted to see her before the operation at the hospital and he just said she must not start. But M's sister is allowed with her baby, even if she is only 5 months old still. What is good for the goose is good for the gander ( hope I have set it right)

My aunt (like my second mom) is also going for an operation a hernia something replacement. She also suffers similar to hubbies mom but hers is not in a bad stage yet. So I hope and pray for ther that the operation would be successful. So I am playing babysitter for my aunts grandchildren for the time she is in hospital. Luckily I only stay like 5 houses from the primary school were I must get two of them Ashleigh-Jade in Grade2, I normally go fetch her with Spotty she loves him. I must fetch her basically everyday from school with the dog and if I dare skip a day and her granny fetches her she is highly upset wont even get in her grannies car and Brandon in grade7, Candice comes with the bus she is in High School already. So hope you all had a good weekend not like my boring weekend was under house arrest with Danielle making sure she heals properly. Bye for now.

Growing up

2006-09-17T13:09:00.000Z

Mommy's independent little girl. She dresses herself and don't want help of anybody. Here is the proof.

Danielle and her cousin just loves each other. Owen is about 2 months older than her. But believe it or not some people think that they are twins if we go to the mall with them together. Bath time is her favorite.

Hospital update

2006-09-13T20:11:00.000Z

Danielle had her tonsils removed today and what a day. From 02:00 this morning she was not aloud to drink anything anymore. My luck she slept right through to 06:30. When she woke up she wanted her bottle and had to tell her over and over that its still hold (shushu). I made a bottle of tea (hot) and she would just give it back to me to tell me that its hot.
keeping madam busy before her operation.
So we arrived at the hospital all fine. She was done about 9:00 and came out about just after 10. They removed her addinoids when she was 9months old and had to remove it again, her tonsils and placed grommets in her ears. You just see all the moms come out with red eyes and trying to hide the tears. But its hard to see your little bundle of joy on that big operation table. They gave her gas to put her out at first I went in with her and she was quit good until the gas started to kick in. I just turned around I could not handle the feeling and seeing her eyes rolling in her sockets and they asked me if I wanted to leave now and I said yes please.
Did not want the band on her hand
She slept a good while before she took the whole ward up by storm and the people just could not believe how well she recovered. She has beed very independent since after her 1st birthday, the people could not believe that she fed herself dressed herself without me helping (she does not want me to help her). We were discharged about 14:00. She was running around at home being her old miss busy body self.

some photo's of her Birthday

Danielle, Me and Leah. Her twin friend from school

Took this on Sunday at the game centre. They have this machine that takes a photo then you can have it sketched like this one or in color. Its me, Danielle, Owen (her cousin), my youngest sister Ronel.

Will publish more photo's next time.

What happened!!!!!!

2006-09-10T19:32:00.000Z

I was playing around trying to make my blog another color and there I did it but lost all my other goodies so now I must go back and get the codes to paste it into my template. I am sitting with a problem I cant remember the passwords. Stupid me I can really go as a blond sometimes (no offense to any blond reading). I need some PLEASE.

Is everybody busy the past few days or what or is my blog getting a bit boring because I see I don't get a lot of readers anymore. I visit a lot of blogs but due to the internet at home some blogs takes forever to open for me to leave a comment like Babs, Reluctant Nomad, Mr Froggie. So its not that I don't visit your site is just that I can not leave a comment it takes sometimes like 5 minutes to open.

Took Danielle to the nose ear and throat specialist on Friday. They are going to remove her tonsils. He gave me the choice but he said that her tonsils doesn't look good the time period of infection will only get nearer to each other. Danielle is a (toweling) nappy and dummy baby. So on Thursday night I discovered a dummy of hers that's got some mould inside so I showed her the dummy and told her its a goggo. I know its cruel of me but it was my only way out to get her
of the dummy. She asked for it like a thousand times and asked her if she wanted her goggo dummy and she just shake her head no. She only really fell asleep like 1:00am. I slept with her on her bed because she was calling me all the time. They said it only takes 3 days to take a child of the dummy and it really does I would say 2 days she hasn't asked for it again. I don't know what her reaction will be when she sees a dummy will found out tomorrow at school

Hope you all had a great weekend.

Missed me!!!

2006-09-05T18:58:00.000Z

Hi all sorry I have been so quiet was sorting my phone out. Got my new phone on Friday, Samsung D820 did not want a Samsung again but the insurance already spoke to hubby. He said yes to the claim. I was so cross I wanted the new Sony Ericsson K900 well its new here by us. I could not get to the computer to say hi because hubby was watching movies all the time. Can see that I was missed well at least there is people out there that misses me. Ha Ha Ha. Missed you guys to now I must catch up again.

August was not my month and now it seems like September is not Hubby's. They broke into his container at his site (the house he is busy building) and stole about R30 000 worth of stuff and then he dropped his phone in the toilet (don't ask me how "men")so more drama.

got so much to tell you guys. In the 5 years hubby and I have been together I have never had words with his mom or dad and Friday was the first with his dad. I was so cross I felt like smacking him. Just thinking about it makes me all tensed up again. M's mom was in hospital again and she asked me to bring Danielle because she misses her (still the same drama with her she still don't make any effort on her side)

The last time that she was in the hospital Hubbys dad asked me not to take Danielle because she messed on the floor and she does not want to sit still. So I told her that the uncle is going to through his toys out the cot and she reassured me he wont mind. So I took Danielle to her on Wednesday night, Danielle was quite sweet. When grumpy old grandpa arrived I left. So on Friday when I went to fetch my phone I quickly dropped in to say hi to hubbys mom. His dad was there. Wait let me just take a few breaths 1, 2, 3, ok. So he said I must please not bring her because I can not control her because, wait 4, 5, 6, (its not working),I do not teach her correctly about what is wrong and right (ek maak haar nie reg groot nie),she smacks you in the face and she does not want to kiss a person if she does not feel like it.

I told him who the hell does he think he is to tell me that. He is not in my house to see how I reprimand Danielle and another thing is she is only 2 years old and not 30. Before he could say anything else I just walked out because I would say stuff that would regret later. I am just that kind of person I would not keep my mouth shut for anybody I will say my say. She never see's them like ones in three weeks of course a child of her age wont just kiss anybody. The reason why she smack them the ones is because they started irrating her because they want to kiss her and she doesn't want to. I know that was not right but she is off that because I worked on that bad point with her. She is still exploring with things you cant smack the living day lights out of a child on that age just because they are not aloud to do this and that you will give them a bad start in live.

He was the worst dad there could be and now he wants to preach me. I have not spoken to him again. I told hubby that I would not take Danielle to there house again because she is not aloud to touch this and do this and the list goes on. Friggin hell she is a child not an adult. 7, 8, 9, 10. Still did not help, wait let me go pour me a glass of wine that will calm me.

Our family's our so much different. My family is very close. Likes to do things together and his is like in totally different. Wanted to upload a photo of my 2 sisters and I with our little ones and my granny but blogger is being a pain again will ask Froggie to do it. That was the phote I send to
Mr Froggie. So hope I did not bore you all. Thanks for all the nice things you guys said about me and Reluctant Nomad does it mean you will turn straight for me.

2006-08-18T19:04:00.000Z

Today something very terrible could of happened I still get cold shivers just thinking about it.

My eldest sister son Jurgen asked me if he could spend the weekend with me. I said its fine and my mom agreed to bring him to me after she has picked him up from school he is in grade 3 now.
JURGEN
So my mom brought him just after 1 o'clock. My mom looks after them during the day but sometimes she leaves them with the maid if she really needs to go somewhere. Today she decided to bring them all with. Jurgen is 9, Ivan 4 and Paul 1y and 6m. They were playing with the dong and outside. Just before my mom wanted to leave she told Jurgen to go hide away because his brother (Ivan) in going to cry after him. So when Ivan realised his brother is missing he started screaming and crying. I still don't know how it happened.
IVAN
Before my mom got into the car she asked but where is Paul we all just yelled "THE SWIMMING POOL". My braai area looks onto our swimming pool and we were sitting there watching them. When we all walked to the door I still made sure the sliding doors are locked.
PAUL
My mom ran I ran after her as we got to the braai area we saw the water moving and my mom just yelled "HIS IN THE SWIMMING POOL" she tried to unlock the sliding door put she was to much in a panic. I quickly unlocked it and just saw him in the swimming pool floating I just prayed, shivers going through my body again just thinking of it, PLEASE DEAR LORD PLEASE LET HIM LIVE. I jumped in my mom was at the side and she took him from me. My aunt took him from my mom and she just collapsed and started crying. I was to shocked and cold to feel anything.

That little face that looked at me as I grabbed him I still feel like crying. We still don't know how he got to the swimming pool he must of walked around the house. He did not swallow much water because he would of vomited he must of just fell in when we got to him. THANK THE LORD. My cellphone was in my pocket so now its water damaged will see how much it would cost to be fixed. Rather my cell phone then a life you can replace a cell phone but not a live. Luckily I downloaded all the photos and video clips on my PC in the week.

It just shows you how fast it can happen it was in a split of a second. We always say it will never happen to me it can I just realised that today. I always watch Danielle like a halk and always make sure all the doors and sliding doors is locked. When she goes outside she's never alone I am always with her. But I am phoning people on Monday to put a net on Hubby hasn't got a choice he will just have to pay.

We smoke in the braai area not in the house and I cant look at the swimming pool then the whole episode replays in my mind. I am so thankful that he was ok I don't know what I would of done if he wasn't how do you tell a mom that your kid just drowned. I don't even want to think of it. Today was a lesson to me to appreciate every second you have because in a split second it could be taken away from you.

(I did a post last night about Danielle, her visit to the dentist to have her teeth fixed but before I could publish it my money on my house phone was up so I could not even save it but will publish it again got to do everything from scratch)

Photo's at last!!

2006-08-14T18:57:00.000Z

Photo of our doggie Spotty that I told you about his much bigger and very naughty. Will take some photos of him tomorrow to show you how big he got.

twins no its Danielle on the left and her friend at school Leah on the right. They act like twins. I have to pack in 2 of everything so does her mom what the ones got the other one wants too. They call them Cloyie and Zoyie at school.

Danielle with her father she was about 6 months old

This was taken last year when my aunt looked after her. She got hold of my aunts lipstick. She likes to do mischief. When you don't hear her you have to go look what she is up to now.

Its photos I had on my phone that I just transferred to my pc it uploaded it very quick but the photos that I scanned or other ones takes forever. How do I upload videos got a lot that I want to share with you. Will post some more again.
My next post will be a photo of me ok will see how I feel. If I can hear you beg hard enough I will consider it ok.

Guessing game!!!

2006-08-12T05:57:00.000Z

Well I see all of you cant wait to see how I look like so I have decided to have a guessing game. You must tell me how you see. Fat or thin, long hair short hair, blue eyes brown eyes you get the picture and I will give you a score so before I do publish a photo of me if blogger will allow me. UnfortunatelyBuddes you cannot play with but if you want to you can score them to so that they don't think I am cheating.

The score will work out of ten. You describe me in your own words how do you think I look like will then score you. Lets see how you do. The one with the most points will get a photo of me send to your email first. How's that.

Today is cold and the wind is blowing gail force. Another wedding don't really feel up to it because its so cold. Just 3 more weeks then Spring is starting cant wait. So I must say goodbye now must start getting ready for the wedding. So hope you all have a good weekend and cant wait to read your comments on me. So long for know.

Update

2006-08-08T19:56:00.000Z

Well everything has gone a little bit back to normal. Some roads are still closed due to the flooding the actual road was washed away. Traffic jams in the mornings so glad I'm not working at the moment. The wedding was very nice and I caught the boutique second time. The beginning of the year we went to a friend of M's wedding and it was so weird I caught the boutique and he caught the carter that was now coincidence I say. So on Saturday at the wedding I caught it again is fate trying to tell me something or what? Got another wedding on this Saturday at the same venue. Lets see if I catch it again then fate is really trying to tell me something!!!

Went for another interview today. Was at my old work collecting puzzle money when this agency phoned me to find out if I am still looking for something. I faxed my CV to them last year. So strange. Well I hope I get it the money is very good. Otherwise I am really considering my banner at the robot.

I am still trying to upload photos. Can someone PLEASE help me before I kick my PC in its &%@*!!!. I use ACDC it that maybe why. Please could somebody come to my rescue. Tomorrow is a public holiday its Nasoinal women's day but its unfair the men gets to stay at home to. So tomorrow is going to be a big shopping day with all the specials the shops are going to have.

Still no luck with the photo tried uploading again while posting. Think I will have to go to a Internet shop just to publish some photos.

Heartache and Water!!!

2006-08-04T08:49:00.000Z

It has struck us again lots of rain. This time it was a little worse then last. Roads were washed away, trees fell, people missing. You can read and see pictures here its one of our local newspapers The Herald. You can search yourself to all the stories.

My brother-in-laws best friend lost his 3 year old daughter she drowned. The water swept their car off the road and into the Baakens River. She was washed out her moms arms by the strong current of the water. They were searching for about 6 hours before they found her little body. That was so hart struck news when my mom phoned me to tell me.

We were driving in hubbies 4x4 on our way to the Spur for a birthday party when we saw the people searching in the woods off the road not far from were we stay. They said they were looking for a little girl. The one road was closed so we had to turn around to the other side. I only found out the evening who the little girl was that they were searching. Looking at my little girl just the thought of loosing her breaks my heart.

At least the rain has stopped a little but it still rains now and again. Hope you all have a good weekend now. We have a wedding tomorrow so I hope by then the weather has cleared up a little.

More celebrations!!!

2006-07-28T08:22:00.000Z

I am trying to upload photos but still cant I must still get use to the normal internet at home it is slow. Danielle's party was a success the sun came out but was still a bit chilly.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIELLe!!!!

2006-07-21T19:11:00.000Z

Its precious little girls Birthday tomorrow the 22 July we are having a party at my house so I am not sure if I will be able to post so I am doing it now. Well I hired a jumping castle for this event but tomorrow its going to rain and be very cold (Damit) The rain forecast for tomorrow is 80% rain and a low of 9 degrees (48F) and a high of 15 degrees (59F). Maybe not cold for you people use the snow but for us it is. I was hoping for a nice sunny day but I guess not everything goes the way you want it Hey!!

Time just flies. It is pretty amazing to see how much they learn, grow and develop in just a short period of time. Well she is definitely got some of her moms genes. Don't take shit of anybody and if she does not get her way she is a tantrum alert of note. Think she got some of her dads look and she definitely got his build. The only thing she got from me is my mouth, ears, my color eyes and of course one thing too.

Hope you all have a nice weekend and its nice to be back.

For some odd reason Blogger is being a pain again I can not upload any photos but dont you worry Buddess will come to my rescue tomorrow. will publish some photos as soon as I can

Did I Pass my Learners License!!!

2006-06-20T08:50:00.000Z

Well, what a nerve reckon day. Our house is a show house the past 2 weeks and under renovation so its been cleaning and fixing the past few weeks that I never had a chance to really sit down and go through the book.

I forgot my books at work on Friday so I asked Wayne, one of my supervisors to take it home with him and I will get it over the weekend. So on Sunday (Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads) no one was home. So I had to get my brother in law to take me to work due to the fact that where I work is right in the main street and it prowls of the Traffic Officers. To my luck they pulled him off and gave him a R200 fine for not wearing a seat belt. I got my books and starting learning.

My nerves started kicking in and could not get all the stuff into my stupid small head. So the time came closer so I just closed the books and said well I just have to do it. My brother in law dropped me off again. It felt like being in school again writing my matrix exam. I hate that feeling. Never go through your work a second time then everything just seem wrong. I was the first to finish and the first one to PASS!!!!!!

Sorry that I kept you all in suspense I did the post yesterday but unfortunately I had to leave earlier to take Danielle to the Dr. She's got tonsillitis had a fever of 39 on Monday and it started to climb again yesterday and so I could not publish it. Good day.

National Youth Day

2006-06-15T08:06:00.000Z

We al get to stay at home tomorrow its National Youth Day.

Tomorrow was Previously known as Soweto Day.

In 1975 protests started in African schools after a directive from the previous Bantu Education Department that Afrikaans had to be used on an equal basis with English as a language of instruction in secondary schools. The issue however, was not so much the Afrikaans as the whole system of Bantu education which was characterised by separate schools and universities, poor facilities, overcrowded classrooms and inadequately trained teachers. On 16 June 1976 more than 20 000 pupils from Soweto began a protest march. In the wake of clashes with the police, and the violence that ensued during the next few weeks, approximately 700 hundred people, many of them youths, were killed and property destroyed.

Youth Day commemorates these events.

Well you all have to hold hands because I am writing my learners lisence on Monday at two o'clock my nerves it would be my ???time so keep a finger crossed for me P L E A S E I am going to need it. If I get myLearners License I am going to get drunk. Hope this is the last time

Roomservice!!

2006-06-12T13:11:00.000Z

Well Chitty wanted one of my Roomservices stories so I told him I will post on. Here it goes

I started working at the Flaming Arrow Spur in my last year of school (Grade 12)doing roomservices for the Holiday Inn. The Spur is attached to the Holiday Inn. We were three people doing room service; one to answer the phone; one to take orders and one to take food from the grill as soon as its ready and make sure the order is correct or one two did delivery's when it was really busy.

Sarah and I normally worked together (we were not a good combination together always caught on some shit). We went together on a few orders. We delivered the one order, as we came out of the one room this gentleman (if you could call him that) stopped us and asked what do we do, Room service. So we told him "Yes sir if you want to place an order just dial 9, there is a menu in your room and the bill can get charged to your room". He was reeking of the alcohol. He kept on showing his room card and asking us are we sure, when we replied "Sure about what sir". He would just say its ok never mind. We excused ourselves due to our other deliveries. As we walked he followed us into the main lift asking us over and over. "Are we sure". We just ignored him. He followed us until the room where our next delivery was. As we came out he was still standing waiting for us, staring at us and stared until we went around the corner to go into service lift. We were like shivering our asses off. It was like in so freaky.

We got his room number. Was not long after he phone and placed an order two garlic rolls and a bottle of wine. So we said we would go together (we had other orders too). Sarah decided that I must go in and she will stand by the door to call for help if he makes any funny business. So I went into his room, was full off empty wine bottles. He could hardly talk, after he signed his hotel slip to the dot of the amount owing he asked "what about your tip". So I explained to him he must just scratch the total out and put in a new total and just sign next to the amount. He had the nerve to tell me that "no we must work something out". I said to him in a very polite manner "Sir I do not know what you are talking about we are in a hurry we do have other customers waiting. Have a nice day".
He was still talking and I just left the room. Sarah laughing. Again he came out of his room to stare at us until we disappear around the corner to the service lift. (you can feel him staring at you). After our rounds of delivery's we discover two garlic rolls left on our tray SHIT SHIT SHIT its his we forgot to give it to him. I suggested that we just knock on his door and leave it on the floor. Sarah said no, so we knocked and the same thing all over again.

That was not the last.
About 3 months after the whole incident I went to the hotel to get a guest ledger. Who was sitting at the bar .....HIM I just ignored him calling me. Was not long after that he phoned and ordered. Want to know how we knew it was him believe it or not 2 garlic rolls and a bottle of wine. So I told Sarah this time you are going into his room and I will wait at the door. We took his order he asked us if we knew where he could get some nice ladies for the night I was like in did I hear correctly. Sarah and I was not scared of this sucker anymore she turned around and told him to phone the escort agencies. He said no what about you and your friend and we both told him straight to F@*k Off. Took the slip and left. There is so much more freaky things that happened will blog about it next time.

Answers to my Scenario!

2006-05-19T12:30:00.000Z

Well I made a trip to the bank yesterday in my lunch time to find out what the HELL is going on. So first I waited in the queue for about 30mins (I hate waiting in a queue it just one of my weak points, I get so frustrated), my lunch is only 35min long so I am late already but could not go goes I just sat down to be helped.

I told her what was going on so she started to print statements. So it was not my evil twin trying to play a trick on me it was Mr Price or FNB's mistake. That was for the purchase I did in February when I re-decorated my room. It only went off now. How the hell does this happen. What if I had no money in my account then I would have more costs.

well you will never know who the culprit was cause the one party blames the other one. When I exit the bank I did just so in time other wise I would of been trapped in their for a few minutes longer. There was a strike going on outside, all the shops where close. Police standing everywhere. Click Here to read more about the strike that took place all over South Africa.

I don't know what to do must I just leave it or must a lay a complain with the bank. So let it be a lesson for you guys after you swiped your card make sure it went off your bank account.

New technology going bad I tell you!!

2006-05-17T13:14:00.000Z

Yesterday I logged onto my bank account through the internet and saw that on Friday the 12 May 2006 an amount of R249.96 was swiped with my debit card but on the 3rd of May (it only went off on Friday)at Mr Price Home The last time that I purchased something from that store was about 2 months ago when I redecorated my room.

I gave them a call and the gentleman said he would look through the slips for the 3 of May for that amount and that I must give him a call back tomorrow (today). They cant phone out they can only phone their branches so I said its fine thanked him and ended the call.

So today I phoned him he's not in(The bugger). So I spoke to the lady that answered the phone and had to repeat myself. She was not very helpful and insisted that it cant be swiped on the 3rd and only go off on the 12 and did anybody perhaps have my card.(I was slowly but surely busy to work myself up)I don't know what is going on that is what I am trying to figure out, and that I have not been into your store on the 3rd I was working and no nobody had my card. She then told me to contact my bank. (got a very short temper) Told her (Screaming) just to leave it and slammed the phone down. (WTF)The steam was coming out my ears.

So I phoned my bank and told them the story. She said well if I did not purchased anything on that date then I will have to come in to their branch and fill in a form then they will take it on with Mr Price. So I called Mr Price Home again and spoke to another lady (had to repeat myself again). She took my card number and promised to phone me tomorrow she will check my card number. So know now I will be waiting patiently for their call.

Well if it was me that purchased that goodies I was on drugs or something or it was my evil twin playing cruel tricks on me

Before I was a Mom!!!

2006-05-10T14:42:00.000Z

Happy Mothersday for Sunday to all the Mothers out here in Blog World. Hope you get spoilt to death (figurely speaking)

Before I was a Mom

Before I was a Mom I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunization.
Before I was a Mom - I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.

I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put it down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom - I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.

I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.
Before I was a Mom - I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, The joy, The love, The heartache, The wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I was a Mom.

And before I was a Grandma, I didn't know that all those "Mom" feelings more than doubled when you see that little bundle being held by "your baby"...

Send this to someone who you think is a special Mom or Grandma. I just did.
And remember that behind every successful mother... Is a basket of dirty laundry.

The meaning of our Dreams!!

2006-05-10T10:45:00.000Z

Dreams represent a fascinating alternate reality, and dream analysis is a fascinating subject for professionals and lay people alike. Many people feel that if they could just understand and take control of their dreams, all their real world problems would be solved. While this position may be a bit of a stretch, it is true that many issues in dreams have their roots in the waking world, and when these daytime issues are solved, so to are the dreams they sparked. When studying the fascinating and sometimes confusing world of dreams, it is a good idea to look at the symbols many other people have found in common dream objects.

We all have dreams that we don't understand or we wish that we did. Well I've been having two dreams for years now. The first one is water I dream about it a lot again last night. Its just water everywhere or I will walk with somebody and all of a sudden the water will start raising from the ground or BIG waves will brake on us put nothing happens we still stand on the same place. Some people say that water is good. But I have been dreaming about it for a long time and no luck as passed my way. The second dream is about my teeth, yes my teeth odd I say. I will bite into something and my tooth or teeth will brake into the gum. I literally spit the teeth out and a whole will be in my gum where the tooth was. That's freaky. Everybody got there own dream analyzing. And I'm not the superstitious type well just a little.

I had a dream ones about our neighbor's wife strangling her husband in our lounge infront of me. I saw his eyes rolling back in his eye sockets and his face turning blue. He did not even put up a fight. I was very stunt of my dream so I asked our maid what does it mean. She said that I will hear of death not neccersarily in my family it could be in my circle of friends to. Did not take much note of it. The Friday my cousins phoned me to let me know that one of our friends committed suicide last night. It only struck me about a half an hour later after our conversation what our maid said. That freaked me out. I never asked her about a dream again.

My mom dreamed about shit the one night. Sitting in it, tramping in it she said it was just shit. So she too asked our maid and she said she will hear of somebody being pregnant. So my mom could not figured out who the possible person could be. Most of the cousins were still in height school and the rest were married and just had kids. It was about a month after my moms dream that we heard it was my cousin in Grade 11.

I did a google search on what the meaning is about dreaming about teeth so if you have the same dreams Click here if you want to find out more about it. And to find out about the meaning of dreaming of water please Click here. Or would just like to surf around

Blue Monday. I don't work on a Mondays(only Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays) but the Blue Monday phase struck me this morning. I'm standing in for the other lady she had to have an operation. Last night we all went out for drinks so I forgot to set my alarm for this morning. M woke me up at 07:00. I just looked at him and said WF!!! I still got to make beds, lunch, shower, dress Danielle take her to creche and still stop for petrol don't know how I did it I was only 5min late.

We also got a new edition to our family a puppy his name is Spotty, that's M's choice. Haven't got one spot on his body he has only about 10 white hairs on his chest. Its a Chow mixed with a Labrador. What a combination I know but he is to cute. I have been begging M for months for a dog. Yesterday we were visiting friends and his brother came there with his dog. M spoke to him and he said they still have 3 pups left without any hesitation from his side he took the money out his pocket and gave him the money to get him one. I was like in shocked. (Maybe it was the Savannah). Danielle is loving him to bits she only saw him this morning. She was shocked to. I was in the shower while Spotty was lying on the bathroom floor when she came in he growled at her. Then jumped and licked and sniffing she just woke up so she got the biggest fright of her live. Will publish a photo soon promise

The Choclate Maths

2006-05-08T09:09:00.000Z

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!It takes less than a minute Work this out as you read .Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!This is not one of those waste of time thgs, it's fun.

1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to havechocolate (more than once but less than 10)

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756 ....If you haven't, add 1755.

6.
Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.You should have a three digit numberThe first digit of this was your original number (i.e., how many times youwant to have chocolate each week).

The next two numbers areYOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2006) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS! .

I Did it!!! I Did it!!!

I forgot to share this with all my blog buddies. I finally got the time and made an appointment to write my Learners License again. (Yes again) I wrote it a couple of times already and failed(Just for the note Chitty I am not blond). Went for my Driver's and failed. I was 3 months pregnant at the time with Danielle. Went for a 2 hour lessons before the big test. I got full marks for my parking and DAMNED I could not do my three point turn. (After parking they let you out to do the road test). When the Examiner came walking to me, my eyes already watery (I always expect the worse in every situation). So he said "Sorry (when he said that I started crying already)girly you did so well in your parking. I don't often get somebody with full marks BUT you did not make it, you must be able to do the 3 point turn without any problem" I could not say anything I was so emotional I could only nod my head.

My Learner License expiring soon. I could not get in anywhere before it does so I just left it. Did not feel like doing it all over while expecting Danielle (who feels like doing anything when you feel like a whale with to little space around you). When she was born she kept me busy 24 hours a day. So I have put it on my do to list for the year. My nerves just kicks in again if I just think of it. So my BIG day is on the 17 June 2006 at 14:00. So please hold thumps. I just see the Headlines in 2050 WOMEN AGE 71 FINALLY GOT HER LEARNER LICENSE AFTER YEARS OF TRYING. No that won't happen I will have my Drivers by the end of the year.

Not for the faint hearted!!

2006-05-03T14:31:00.000Z

They were together in the house.
Just the two of them.
It was a cold, dark, stormy night. The storm had come quickly
and each time the thunder boomed he watched her jump.
She looked across the room and admired his strong appearance...and
wished that he would take her in his arms, comfort her and
protect?
her
from the storm.
She wanted that...more than anything.
Suddenly, with a pop, the power went out... She screamed...
He raced to the sofa where she was cowering.
He didn't hesitate to pull her into his arms.
He knew this was a forbidden union and
expected her to pull back.
He was surprised when she didn't resist but instead clung to him.
The storm raged on...as did their growing passion. And
there came a moment when each knew that they had to be together.
They knew it was wrong...
Their families would never understand... So consumed were
they in their passion that they heard no opening
of doors...just the faint click of a camera......

Grannies Day!!!

2006-05-03T11:39:00.000Z

So on Friday M's mom phoned me to make sure where my aunt stays because she wants to pick Danielle up (it was late about just after 3 the afternoon). I was so glad when she phoned. I think she felt bad about the whole incident the previous day that she felt guilty or maybe not I will not know went to my aunt after work because I did not know what to do with my self without Danielle. I went home about 17:30 just sitting on the couch watching my soups. M was at a friends house quick to find out what there plans were for the evening was going to sleep at her grannies house but due to the loss of her dummy (she cant sleep without her nappy or dummy) grannyhad to bring her home. So now I don't stress that much anymore. Now that I know that M's mom made some effort with Danielle. They had a good time she said. She said they took the dogs for a walk and she was calling Cheeky the whole time. She ate Smarties and fed the dogs and ones her smarties was finishes she wanted does back that she fed them.

Her health is also going backwards. So how much time she has left to enjoy her grandchildren is also a very sad story. She's been everywhere and nobody can really tell her what will work. She's been through so many pain and disappointment that she has considered suicide. She said the only thing that still keeps her going is her grand children.

Granny came visiting on Monday (was a public holiday in SA)and bought her lots of nice tracksuits and jerseys. I am not the jealous person but being a mother your natural instincts (protecting your young like in the wild) kicks in every 5mins. Its just natural that you always put there needs before yours. You get use to eating cold food or eating with one hand, starving, lack of sleep or anything.

So I will now see how long it takes for her to make an attempt again to spend sometime with Danielle.

The SMS!!

2006-04-26T13:00:00.000Z

This whole story about M's mom neglecting Danielle is really getting to me. I am a very straight forward person that always let you know what I think. So on Sunday after I left M's sisters house I was thinking how could I let her know how I feel. So I though I would send her an SMS which sed:

I just want to say thanks for everything you do for me and Danielle and we do appreciate it from the bottom of our hearts. Even though we don't get to spent that much time together anymore.

I felt so much better after I have send it. So last week we were all invited to Dine with M's grandfather for his 85th birthday. At first I did not wanted to go. We dropped Danielle off at my aunt (she lives just around the corner from me). The whole family was there. I kept my distance from M's mom I kissed her hello and that was it. I only spoke to her when she asked me a question. I felt bad doing that but the hurt I'm feeling kept popping up in my head.

So the Thursday night she phoned me I was so shocked. She said that we must do something tomorrow because she has neglected us the past few weeks. (My little inner person was shouting up and down "I finally got through to her without the REAL me doing it"). (I only work Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays). So I said "that's fine will see you around one. Just need to do some things". She said: "OK see you tomorrow:.

So my day started and I could not wait to finally spend some time with her. I really love her very much and the past year has been hell. I made all the attempts to keep in touch with her and made more efforts for her to spend time with Danielle then what she did.
So at 13:30 when I arrived at her house the past year just flashed right back to me. Yes M's sister was there to. I almost just left again. Its not that I am jealous on her its just that I want M's mom to spend time with Danielle alone. When she is there she keeps on giving her baby to M's mom then she cant play with Danielle.
We went to Reggies to change her pram due to crack in it. Went for coffee and that was it. Yes a total waste of my day. So I went home. I felt like screaming, crying, banging my head against the steering wheel. But I keep my calm infront of Danielle.

Yesterday was the last. I phoned M's mom to found out what she will be doing. (We had a public holiday in SA). So she said she will come visit around one. She did not sound to good. Like I said she suffers from acid reflux. So most of the times the acid pushes up through the night and then the next morning she is so weak and sick. So I had to do some groceries (I dropped Danielle off by my Aunt) shopping for the house. When I got a phone call from her about 3 hours later my heart started jumping and my face got this big smile, but not for long. It was M's sister they just want to know when I will be home. She is coming with. My lip dropped to the floor (nearly tramped on it) and my heart fell right into my shoes.

So I said to myself NO don't be like this. So I got home unpacked. They arrived about an half and hour later. We had a smoke and fetched Danielle. Everything went well until they wanted to leave. Danielle wanted to go with her Granny. I don't know if it was my imagination or what. It just felt like she did not want Danielle to go with even M's mom she did not seem eager to take her. So I told her I will fetch her later. So Danielle got her bag and was so pleased to go with she even kissed and hugged me goodbye.

When we got the car M's mom was holding the baby and Danielle wanted to sit on grannies lap so M's sister said she new it would happen and saying to her mom that she still want to stop at Spar. So had to count to 10 otherwise I would of exploded and say something I might regret later. So I told her I will take her now. Grab Danielle who is screaming and yelling and told her to go. She still tried to say something but I just walked on trying to keep Danielle from kicking and smacking me in the face. She was crying her eyes out so I had to get into the car and drive with her. I drove to my aunt. She was not home so Danielle was crying ones more cause we left her "other grans" house without saying hello. So at the four way stop we met again M's sister and mom came back from the Spar they weren't even 5 min in the store. I just waved and road off.

We ended up in the park. We just stopped at home when my cell phone rang it was her I did not pick up. She phoned again, again I did not pick up. On the 3rd ring (my little voice inside me said Pick up and just listen what she has to say) So I did. She said that she just wants to apologies she did not mend for it to come out the way it did. (My inner voice: she's got a guilty conscious)So I just told her it sounded like she did not want her to go with cause she had an excuse everytime M's mom wanted to take Danielle with her. So I just said its fine.

So this morning I had to drop Danielle off with my Aunt due to her school being closed. I made another attempt with M's mom to spend some time with Danielle. I phoned her to let her know that Danielle is at my aunts house if she wants to pick her up. M's sisters just lives one street away from my aunt so its not out M's moms way. So today I will see if she made an attempt to see her. If not. That will be it. No more phone calls, no more visits from me. That is fair is it not. I made more then enough attempts.

A Grannies Love!!

2006-04-18T14:27:00.000Z

My precious little Dannielle (photo of her where she was only 1 day old) was the first grand child on M's side. So she got a lot of attention and granny made lots of visits. She is not very healthy for the past 3 years. She is suffering from acid reflux she had many operations but still nothing helped her. Still that did not stop her of spending time with her grand daughter.

Her own daughter gave her lots of grieve during the years and she always said that I am the daughter she never had. They are not even fond of her husband that is as big as a whale and she is a tiny women. They came home one day to say that they are married they got married in court without nobody attending. Her parents were furious. She was addicted to Prozac at the time so we all wondered if she knew what she was doing. They tried to have a baby but due to his illness as a young boy he only has on testicle. They turned to insemination, that did not help either. So last year she fell pregnant naturally

Since she found out that she is expecting we were nothing (Danielle and I). I will phone M's mom no answer and no return call. Then later she and her mom will rock up at my house to visit Danielle. They went shopping together the whole day.
M's sister had her a baby about 2 weeks ago. I still try to make an effort to go visit M's mom but no luck no returned SMS or nothing. And when you drive past M's sister's house her car is standing there. Then I feel like shouting, I just feel that even if she visits there the whole day she can still just pop in to say hi to Danielle for 5min. We stay just around the corner of M's sister. I get told she is not well but then again she is fit enough to go visit her new grand daughter.

What can I do to let her know how I feel. Is she aware that she is neglecting her other grand child. I am not jealous I know that its her daughter, but I just cant understand that a granny loves one grand child more than another. I feel like crying, shouting etc. I just told myself that I will not make any efforts anymore. If she phones me to see Danielle I will make an excuse. I will make her feel like I am feeling know.

M's mom and I are very close (were) we did everything together. Shopping, walking the dogs, sharing secrets. She is a very dear old lady she wont even hurt a fly. We have never had an argument. We love each other dearly. But this past 10months is really getting to me.

Exploring the child still in me!!!

2006-04-13T11:00:00.000Z

On Saturday my friend and I took Danielle and her four year old daughter to Kidz Galore its at the Board Walk (want to see more about the Boardwalk click here) down at the beach front. And did she have a ball. She thinks she is a little Jane (Tarzan & Jane) on all the equipment. Not scared to attempt anything. And mommy must just follow and climb on to everything with her to make sure that she does not get hurt.

She likes the slides the most so that means to get to the slides we have to go up with soft round steps (see photo on the right), then mommy must slide down with her (She is only 1 year and 8 months so she is still to small to all does dangerous moves on her own). My friend sat down to look after our shoes and bags and her four year old daughter went with me. The mommys proberly thought look at that mommy is she nuts or what because every time we went down the slide it was me, Megan in the middle and then Danielle on her lab. It was fun getting to the bottom and hear Danielle laugh out loud.
If you want to see more click here
On the jumping castle she jumps until she is at the end of the jumping castle and then she starts running, who ever is at the end,must just catch her. Not scared of anyting I say.

They have a section with a lot of balls. What does she do? she stands on the side and dives into the balls. I take her by her feet and slide her on the balls, her head just bounces up and down. She thinks that is real fun just laughing all the way.
They had real fun. So after all that excitement we took them to Mc Donalds.

National Cleavage Day

2006-04-07T10:34:00.000Z

So ladies grab your Wonder bra's and short strappy tops we have to give the guys something to talk about (not that I have cleavage to show well not anymore). Lets stop traffic today. Not that they warn you before the time. I have got a long sleeve shirt with a collar on. (Yes Chitty - how vervelig - but its cold today)

Just something to thinks about??
Why do men always have to have all the glory. If you watch a movie with sex in do you ever see anything from the mans side, execpt bum why do we always just get bums. (Not that we really want to see anything else. But just the minority that makes me sick. There is books, sex clubs, strip clubs, porn movies. I think ladies why don't we start a big knob day (see whose got the biggest knob infront). I think that would be such a big joke day. Everybody will just look at the men's knobs.

Perfect Password

2006-03-29T11:23:00.000Z

A woman was helping her husband set up his computer, and at the
appropriate point in the process, the computer advised him that
he would now need to enter a password. Something he will use to log
on.

The husband was in a rather amorous mood and figured he would
try for the shock effect to bring this to his wife's attention.
So, when the computer asked him to enter his password, he made
it plainly obvious to his wife what he was entering by stating each
letter out loud as he typed.....
P...
E...
N....
I...
S.

His wife fell off her chair laughing when the computer replied:

***PASSWORD REJECTED. NOT LONG ENOUGH** !

Port Elizabeth, South Africa!!

1.
Erected to commemorate the landing of the 1820 British Settlers, the Campanile is situated at the entrance of the railway station and harbour. The 53.5 m Campanile contains a chiming clock and the largest carillon of bells in the country, in addition to its chiming clock. The Observation Room can be reached by climbing a 204-step staircase, offering a magnificent experience and view not to be missed.

2.
The oldest Library in PE.

3.
Art venues include the King George VI, EPSAC and Cuyler Street galleries.

4.

The 5 km Donkin Heritage Trail links 47 places of historical interest in the old Hill area of central Port Elizabeth. The useful pedestrian signage orientates tourists along the self-guided trail. The Donkin Reserve was proclaimed a public open space in perpetuity by Sir Rufane Donkin. It includes a stone pyramid monument, with a touching inscription, erected by Sir Rufane Donkin in memory of his late wife, Elizabeth, after whom the city was named. The Lighthouse, built in 1861, also houses the city's Tourist Information Centre.

5.
Fort Frederick is a 1799 stone fort built by the British Forces to defend the mouth of the Baakens River. It was named after Frederick, Duke of York, and was built by English troops. The English troops were sent to Algoa Bay to assist the Graaff-Reinet rebels in preventing a possible landing of French soldiers. Yet, ironically, no shot was ever fired in anger from the Fort.

6.
The Horse Memorial, located on the corner of Russell and Cape Roads, was erected and dedicated to the horses killed during the South African War (1899-1902). This magnificent statue is reputed to be one of only three memorials in the world dedicated to horses.

How fairy tales should end!!!

2006-03-22T11:29:00.000Z

This is the fairy tale that we should have been reading as little
girls!

Once upon a time,
in a land far away,
a beautiful, independent
self-assured princess
happened upon a frog as she sat,
contemplating ecological issues
on the shores of an unpolluted pond
in a verdant meadow near her castle.
The frog hopped into the princess' lap and said: Elegant Lady, I
was
once a handsome prince, until an evil witch cast a spell upon me.
One kiss from you, however,
and I will turn back
into the dapper, young prince that I am and then, my sweet, we can
marry and set up housekeeping in your castle with my mother, where
you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes, bear my children, and
forever feel grateful and happy doing so.
That night,
as the princess dined sumptuously
on lightly sautéed frog legs
seasoned in a white wine
and onion cream sauce,
she chuckled and thought to herself:
I don't f**kin' think so

The next FHM swimsuit cover girl!!!!

This photo was taking on our holiday at Van Stadens Resort. We were there for 3 weeks and she enjoyed every single day of it. The people in the camp site knew me already because I had to walk with her in her pram every night to get her to sleep she did not want to sleep. Around and Around the campsite I went. Van Stadens is just about 35km outside my home town. She is such a good child. She loves water and the sand. Every day I took her down to the lagoon to play. She even took part in Little Miss van Stadens but she was to small the age group started from 3 years and she was only 1year and 6months. I just entered her in for fun. Will get the photo and publish it for you. We even had our own father Christmas (my hubby) will publish those photos soon.

Poor little duckling!!!

2006-03-08T11:17:00.000Z

I grew up on a small holding about 30km outside Port Elizabeth, Greenbushes. That was some childhood. Was a real tomboy. Climbing trees, catching animals to keep as my pets, swimming in our dam (because we did not have a swimming pool then). I went to the farm school. The bus would pick me up infront of my house and drop me off again in the afternoon.

Once I caught a wild duckling on our dam. Still today I cant remember how I actually did catch the little duckling. It was only a few days old, it still had the little sharp edge on his beak to crack the egg open (don't know what you call it)Put it became my pet. Cant remember what I called it.
I used a baby bath for him in the day to swim in while I was in school and in the afternoons I will take him to one of the smaller dams for a swim and to eat plankton in the water. I even took him to school the one day for a oral. I only had him for a week. My little sister was about 4 years old and stayed with the maid in the day. On the Friday afternoon when I came home I found my little duckling pet floating in the baby bath. I started crying. I went to my little sister and asked her what happened to my pet. So she said she only played with him by pushing him under the water, she wanted to see how he swims under water.

My sister drowned my little duckling.

The "P" Signs of getting old

2006-03-02T11:53:00.000Z

This was a good joke for me this morning and its so true will translate it in English for those who cant read Afrikaans.

Jy is oud as jy op die "P - Stadium" is:-
>
> "Pramme op Pens, Pens op Parra, Parra op Pote en Pote in
>Pantoffels....!"
>

>You are getting old when you get to the "P" - stadium

>Tits on stomach, stomach on Vagina, vagina on feet and feet into slippers.

Hope it made you laugh to

So proud of her

2006-03-02T08:05:00.000Z

On Sunday she went with daddy so long to our friends so I can get her thing together to take with. I had to go to Pick & Pay (our convenient store)to get her a pack of diapers because hers was running low. I went to the swimming pool part, was looking for a pool noodle for her so I saw the Pollyotters so I got one for her (got damn expensive R200).

It was so busy. It normally is on a Saturday. So I had to stand in the queue (suppose to be a express till for baskets only) This one lady infront of us did her shopping with baskets holding us up which only had about 2 to 5 items she had about 25. After waiting for about a Half an hour. (Yes its suppose to be a express till.) She was very picky too waited for prices on mugs then helping friends (did shopping to waited for her with their full trolley) buying airtime for them while waiting for the prices on the mugs. That was the pits felt like taking her groceries and throwing it off the conveyer belt. She still had the nerve to say "Sorry for the delay" So the couple infront of me just went of on her saying she's being unfair she should be at the normal queues. Then she had another nerve to say that she has baskets to. I had to count to 10 about 50 times not to loose my temper cause I would let her have it.

So eventually I got to our friends house. Put the pollyotter on for Danielle and in the water we went at first she could not balance her that good. After 10 min she was swimming on her own, jumping in the swimming pool and turning herself around in the water(and she is only 1 year and 8months). I was so amazed. R200 well spent. Do you think she wanted to get out the water NO way that was a battle. Any parents out there with little ones. You can really invest in one of those. That will be the best thing you could buy for them.

Now when we are outside I will put it on for her so if she falls into the swimming pool she will be able to swim out. (although she's always under my strict supervision when we are outside). Accidents happens so quick and it only takes them 2 min not even to drown.

Joy of motherhood

2006-02-23T09:07:00.000Z

My best friend had her baby on Friday the 18th. Its a joyful and painful time for her cause last year the same time she was expecting her first and at 6 months she was battling with high blood pressure for two weeks she was in hospital and so they had to do a emergency Caesar so Haley was born weighing only 854g she was healthy and breathing on her own the Dr was positive she was going to make it. Haley did not only a week old she past away. I still get shivers when I think about it I got the SMS on 4 March 2005 at 18:18,24 still got the SMS on my phone from Riska(it was in afrikaans)that her angel flew to heaven and that she died at 14:40.

The Friday before she went in with Tamlyn I went to visit her looking through her scrapbook album there was photo's of Hayley on the machines with her little foot prints they've made with lipstick. The only thing she said is that she just hopes everything goes well and that she cant go through that ordeal againg.I told her that it will and it did everything went well. A healthy baby Girl Tamlyn is born.Hope she brings joy to her parents.I know Hayley will live within their hearts. They will always wonder how it would of been if she made it. Gods got plans with everybody even though she only got to live for a short period she will always be missed by her mommy, daddy and sister.

How was your Valentines Day

2006-02-15T09:45:00.000Z

BAD NEWS N O T H I N G!!! H A P P E N D!!!

Sorry nothing happend. No kiss no happy Valentines nothing. The only thing half romantic was he ordered pizza thats all. So I better accept it that I will never have a valentines Day full of surprises. And that is the way he will stay. The Lingerie story: nothing had to pick up Danielle so I could not stop to get anything.
Face it there is 365 days in a year minus one day for Valentines day gives you 364 I will rather take the 364 days than Valentines day. If you think about its only for the shops to make money after all the big spending at Christmas time Jan and Feb is a poor month for them so to make something they have VALENTINES DAY.
Yes maybe I am just jealous because I did not get anything or will never.

WHAT'S VALENTINES DAY!!!

2006-02-14T07:45:00.000Z

083 948 I am a very romantic type of person but if you with somebody that is not and you have tried every trick in the book you just give up.
This morning was just a normal morning for me got up get ready no surprises lurking somewhere. At the beginning I would still hope that somewhere in his macho ego will unveal this romantic movie type of guy nope been nearly 5 years and still no luck only thing I got in five years for valentines day was a chocolate with a heart on saying "YOUR ADORABLE" a still have that little heart and will show our kids one day that daddy can be romantic. I think I must frame it and hang it in the passage maybe that will remind him the little things counts to. He is romantic in his own special way.
Maybe I will surprise him tonight will go to the lingerie shop at lunch time maybe that will do the trick I will surprise him tonight
WATCH THIS BLOG WILL REVEAL WHAT HAPPENED!!! (HOLD THUMPS)

WHAT CAN WE GIVE THEM TO STOP GROWING

2006-02-02T14:04:00.000Z

The Old people always said give your child some brandy it will stop them from growing if it was only so.
Got a big throb in my throat in the week I was unpacking all Danielle (now 19months) baby clothes (not that shes is all grown up) out to give Sonja(to my other halfs sister which is expecting in 2 months time)to use.
When I suddenly released how much she has grown in only 18teen months its unbelievable and a sad story.Looking at the clothes remembering how she looked in it. And cant believe that just a few months ago she fitted into that little pants. You miss that little bundle of joy to cuddle and now they just want to cuddle when they want to
Terrible twos here we come.

Working Moms

2006-01-27T07:49:00.001Z

I really take my hat of for moms thats working a 5 day 8-5 job stile comes home make food attend to kids and your important big baby (Daddy) I worked all my life when I found out I was pregnant I was lucky to could have stayed at home and raised my little pumpkin myself. Its just as hard being a full time mom and house wife.

She is now 19 months and Im currently helping out at Johnnic at the Herald doing Data capturing. We have put her into a play school and she is enjoying it now mommy is bored and cant believe how I miss her and reialized that I will have to let go someday just the fact that I'm not going to be with her 24/7 was a very sad story for me.

I'm just working 3 days a week and when its home time I cant wait to go pick her up. She will go to bed at 8 then mommy must do her quores while daddy relaxes on the couch with the DSTV remote. I cant complain he really helps me alot with her (Danielle) he does more for her than other daddys does for their kids (what ive seen in our Circle of friends)

By 9:30 I'm so tired that i cant keep my eyes open. When I want her to sleep late she will wake up at 6 in the morning and when I want her to wake up early she sleeps until 8 like this morning 5:45 she came into our room smacking me in my face to wake up taking my finger dragging it, to follow her.

Normally it would not bother me cause I know when she goes have a lay down later the afternoon mommy can nap to but not today I've got to go to work and shes must go to school. Thats when I realized she is growing up to soon.

So all you working moms if I could give you a gold medal or a holiday to Hawaii I would.
