Whats been happening? Well I have gotten in contact with my father, stepmother, and three brothers again, and its been fantastic! It was seven years since we had all spoken, which was way too long. Tom had never even met his inlaws or brothers in law! We think its funny that his brothers in law are 18, 16 and 11 years old! From the moment Tatum met Layne we never saw them for the rest of the time we were there. They rode the horse all weekend, which is great. I am so glad that they get along so well, and that tatum is getting to know the rest of her family.
I also started a new job at the end of August, working for Telstra. It is the MOST BORING job ever, but its a job. Though it is supposed to be casual I get at least 25hours a week, and am over it. I have hardly had time to even look at my camera, little own use it! My ad for my photography comes out in the Yellow Pages in April, so there is still lots to do to get things ready for that. So hopefully I can quit work and concentrate fully on that when the time is right.
My friend Belinda and I took Tatum and Dakota to see Shannon Noll in concert. We met him afterwards too. We got front row of course, and the girls were very patient waiting for 7 hours in line out the front to secure their awesome positions. Tatum loved it, she was touching him and yelling out. A little groupie in the making!
Tatum has her orientation day for high school in a week and a half, so she is very excited. I picked up her uniforms this week and cried when she tried them on at home! I cant believe my baby is nearly in high school. Where did the time go? I remember my grandmother saying when Tatum was a baby that it wouldn't be long before she was in Prep! It was five years till then and it seemed like it was forever away. Now we are starting the high school years. That conversation seems like yesterday.
I have been doing a bit of scrapping, so I will have to take some photos and upload them. I have finished all my christmas shopping except one thing, so its the first year I have been organised, which feels good.
Anyway, better get going, I have to go to work for four hours! On a Sunday, which sucks!
Take Care
