Day off? Hmmm. Today the wife is working from home, and the daughters ex-boyfriend will be around tomorrow asking for some assistance with a website. Maybe I can take Friday off... or maybe sometime *next* week?? :)

Baby home now and parents, grandparents et al are relieved to say the least. Still no idea what it was tho gastroenteritis and possible choking on vomit (sorry) seem to be potentials. More tests in coming weeks just in case! :)

Thanks Jen... it *is* one of those times I wish I was 12,000 miles away!! Still, the little one made it thru the night. His blood pressure has dropped but the docs still have no idea what was/is wrong. Fingers are crossed it was just a one-off incident. :)

My youngest grandchild (my son't first child and only a few months old) has been in hospital overnight in the UK. Seems he had some sort of spasm, threw up everywhere and his lips went blue for a while. His blood pressure shot up and so the doctors are keeping him in overnight for observation. We're obviously all a bit worried.
 

Chris

January 22, 2012, 12:05:06 PM
One more week and the kids are back in school. No doubt I'll miss them... but it just *might* mean less work for me to do. I'm still chasing my tail here! :P

Don't ask me what's been going on because I have *no* idea. For two days *I* couldn't get in to check what's wrong. The site simply disappeared.

If nothing else I can at least check the logs etc to see what's been going on. :(

The monsoon/cyclone season arrives in the north again, like it does every year.
Heavy rain, strong winds, for months on end.
The 'wild west' it surely is, where only the tough survive the 'hard drinking-hard-living'.

Think maybe Sky is having trouble understanding & given his "huh"  ??? I think I'm correct in my assumption!!!  :D
Tai Chi - Mind, body and spirit are all exercised simultaneously.  The continuous flowing movements of Tai Chi are based on the principle that running water never stagnates.  The gentle movements relax your muscles and joints while strengthening your body and mind.

Thank you P, but I can speak for myself. I am not having any trouble understanding (some may, though).
And I used emoticons as you yourself sometimes use as well as others here.

I'll by a boags ale super-jug, drink that and then you two can mix your drink in the empty jug once I'm done and lining up for another.

I see your hic and raise you two.

 8) 8)  Your'e on!!! Minx.

But first, I must squeeze in a quick trip down to Mackeys Pub,
in Latrobe,Tasmania: where I vaguely remember, sinking a few, at one time......The call of the Boags.....is getting stronger every day.
I may just come across Crankenstein, in my travels. :P

My plan, is then Darwin or Bust.!!!!
Wether it is via Birdsville or Longreach....I have yet to decide.

Love Barra: seafood curries: mangoes and avocados.
So, hope you are well provisioned.***

Dislike cane toads tho:
that line up on the window sills......staring at me.....all goggle eyed: while I attempt my daily ablutions!!!!.
Hope that you have stacks of Cane Toad repellent.

Cane Toad repellant here is called Dettol in a spraypack - LOL

You can relax at the spa end of the pool,sipping on something chilled - the ice maker works overtime thru Summer

Thanks Minx, :-* :-*
Great to hear that a good squirt of Dettol, takes care of the "C.T's".

Love the thought of the pool and the spa.
When I get there, I shall surely dream my day away: with Sam Miguel: and Ricky Donna.
Oh!!!! sounds like shades of our Melbourne Cup Party, last year...
with the Cabana boys?....eh?.
