Dave's op went well.It took about 2 hours .

Mum talked to him at 7pm and he couldn't stay awake to talk.

So I will talk to him tomarrow.Sweet Dreams Dave!!

Ok back to watch Bad Girls with Tony.
I am thinking of my younger brother Dave today as he is having his back opperated on today in Invercargill.I wish I could be there with him.

It sucks living at opposite ends of the country.Oh funny I just received a text from my sister in law erin.He has just gone in.

Dave was looking forward to the sleep.LOLHe has been going bad on the farm trying to get everything finished.

Great news the plumber is starting the outside drains at our house today.It will be great to have toilets.LOL.

Who is going to "Scrapped" the Movie?

Well better do some more jobs on my list.

Our day went bad at lunch time today.Mark a friend who is doing some work for us at our new house called to say that he found the back door to the garage open and it had been jimmie open.I went all cold while Mark continued to tell what had happened.All those feels come running back.Panick,fear and the need to get justice(I really mean to beat the c&*p out of the low life who have done this to us again).

We dropped Katelyn and Max at my lovely friend Keren's as we didn't want the kids to know.Our shipping container was robbed a week before christmas last year and the kids didn't held that well.
So we are keeping it from them this time.

Luck our security man isn't one of the guys who is holding us up.And the alarm sent them packing.They only got into the garage.Thank goodness.
So I would hate to think how much the locksmith bill will be.

It rained here today so we didn't get any painting done today.The kids had a great time play fight with Tony and watching videos.

I am off to bed now.
