Who an I kidding, I hate the cold & to add to my misery we are all full of flu. TOday I decided that my monthly billing has been on hold so I decided that I would do it here at home & when I felt crappy I could go have a nap. This has worked really well I actually think I got more work done here at home than what I would have done at work.

Orian went for 2 job interviews an got both jobs, so he had to decide which one he was going to take which would not interfer with his school work.

Yesterday he got to look after Dylan for the day, it was great seeing the 2 of them bond & play. It was a huge day in Orians life & doubt anyone can believe what he was feeling looking after his boy like a real dad.

Daniel is back at school as of today I hope he was not feeling to crappy bet her really could not miss anymore school.

Steffy is also getting over the flu even though the eye infection is still bugging her.

DH & I will both be back in the office tomorrow, I have to admit I really like the idea of working from home I could only wish it could happen.

Hi all things have been really hectic since I got back from leave, I must admit that 2 weeks back in the office & I wish I could go back on leave.

Keira is so cute suc she keeps asking when are we going back to the holiday home, if I had half a chance & the finances it would be NOW!!!

The holiday was wonderful & peaceful it showed me what life should be like & not this rat race we live in, I hardly saw the boys as the met up with some friends & only really came home to eat & were back at the beach ( the beach was 5 minutes away from the apartment we stayed at. Keira loved swimming in the ocean, Steffy loved the sand (not to keen on the big water)

Since we got back a few things have changed, Orian is single again but has his eye one a special girl R has moved closer to us so I am hoping to see more of the grand baby, Oh yeah Orian turned 18 when we were on holiday... now he is legally an adult DH & I have put adopting on hold till we sort out what it is we want in life, we are tempted to move to the coast as we both prefer the slowed down lifestyle they have going down there.

Hey a girl can only dream...

I hope you are all well I promise to do some serious catching up on all your blogs. I will put some pics up a little later. Hugs & blessings to all

R has asked me to leave these pics up so I will, this is my first attempt of taking serious pictures for her modeling portfolio. My favorite is the first on on the first slide show I managed to catch her when she was not paying attenting to the camara....

Well Orian has a job, i must admit I do not have all the details as he started yesterday. All I know is that is is riding along in a tow truck. The best part of this job is that he can still study when they are having a quiet day.

Here is the latest pic of 1/2 my family as usual the boys had other things to do.

Things have been getting my down. I know I have no control over a lot of stuff that is going on around me which makes it worse I guess I am what you can call a control freak. My bosses keep on telling me that I can not save the world but I keep on trying & by doing so I get kicked up the ass.

DH contacted our social worker today to find out what is happening with our adoption report as the social workers in Durban have not recieved it yet, as it turns out she has been very busy & has not done it yet, she has promised to have it done by the end of the week. I am glad DH has made the call as I was really worried that he would not go with adopting another one.

As to baby names we are having a little trouble agreeing to a name, those of you who walked with me through Steffy's placement will remember that we had this problem ten as well.

Names I Like:
-Ethan
-Damien
-Austin

He wants : Tastin (no clue what it means or where he got it)

We both like Scott but he has a cousin called Scott therefor he feels we should not use the name. In the 9 years of marriage I have seen this kid twice.....

So would it real be wrong of us to name our new son Scott.

Work has been driving me nuts, its financial year end & we have been doing our pre audit & have found some really strange things which we are trying to sort out

I must admit all I want to do is go on leave its only 12 working day till we go but right now that feels sooooo far away. . The rest of this month I will working on the financials. The end of the month is going to be really hectic with month end, timesheets, increases, bonuses & me going on leave. not to mention the fact that my assistant will be going on maternity leave as well the office is going to be nuts for 2 weeks till I get back.

Oh well enough bitching from me.... hope you are all well.
