April Down Under: November 2013
http://aprildownunder.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 28, 2013. This is my third Thanksgiving down under. Wow. Where has the time gone? We celebrate the Saturday following Thanksgiving because everyone (including me.the cooker of the Turkey) has to work. I would much rather have a four day weekend like all of my yank friends in the states, buttttt, Australian could care less about a meal shared between the Indians and Pilgrims. Followed by "traffic is horrible! Anyways, I have a lot in my life to be thankful for. Choosing not to parti...

April Down Under: June 2014
http://aprildownunder.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 3, 2014. Tomorrow is a new trimester. I can't believe I am entering the THIRD trimester tomorrow (28 weeks). It still feels fast and slow at the exact same time. Pregnancy has continued to be a difficult task. But I guess growing a person 24 hrs a day isn't suppose to be a walk in the park? Although "they" like to make it look like it's great! It certainly seems if it's not one thing it's another. So ready for August! The nurse laughed and said "oh, someone doesn't like the monitor at ALL!

Monday, January 28, 2013. What would you do if I sang out of tune? So this weekend I have had a great time surrounded by my closest friends here in Perth. Yesterday was Australia Day (think July 4) so it's been fun, sun, cookouts, fireworks, movies, etc this weekend. And to top it off. TOMORROW (monday) is a day off (WITH pay! Because Australia day fell on a weekend. Gotta love it. Is this just me? Is it more of a female thing since we tend to rely more on friendship/companionship than men do? Wedding wi...

Thursday, November 27, 2014. You are having a preemie.". I would tell you the "chapters" so to speak that I plan to write.but that would require me to think ahead and well, we all know that my ability to do that is nonexistent, and now that we have Emily home with us (where she belongs) I do good to plan my daily shower, much less blog entries. No offense, readers. I instantly burst into tears. How could this even be possible? The book. I bought the book! No, no. This is clearly a mistake. Remember, I re...

April Down Under: November 2012

Wednesday, November 28, 2012. Another day, another late night. Well, I was right. 7am.which turned into 8am. April hated me this morning. Especially after once I got in bed, I discovered an episode of "Friends" was coming on. which meant of course I HAD to watch it. How can you not? We'll forget the little fact that I OWN the box set. Today work was flat out. Soo busy. And the weather? Rainy, cold and windy! Makes all that seem to disappear! And, Good eye might! Val, that's for you! I should be in bed!

April Down Under: February 2013

Monday, February 11, 2013. Two Blogs in one night? So, I was piddling and surfing the net, and logged into an old blog looking for a quote. I came across the following and wanted to copy/paste and share it on this blog. It makes me laugh out loud and thought you might enjoy! Sometimes we think we really understand men. Then we regain consciousness. We do like to have sex, just not at midnight when we have to get up at the crack of dawn to feed two kids, three dogs, and a pair of fat goldfish. Rst because...

Sunday, March 31, 2013. Life as an Expat, continued. mate. A couple posts ago, I blogged about Life as an Expat (click here. To read the post). Since that post, I have had quite a bit of feedback from fellow "yanks" who totally relate, and some who found quite a good laugh with me (not AT me. well, probably, it certainly wouldn't be the first.). I am aware that the above is a toilet, and other than being more square than round, not MUCH difference right? Ok Two reasons I'm starting this blog off in the s...

April Down Under: December 2012
http://aprildownunder.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 18, 2012. It's simply heartbreaking. An elementary school being attacked by an armed gunman. Victims being elementary aged, as well as the adults who worked at the school. For no reason. And if there was a reason, we will never know. But really, would there ever be a "reason" that would justify this cruel, horrific act? Tuesday, December 11, 2012. Work is chaos. Well, whatever level 15 levels PAST chaos is, is actually more like it. Just when I think I am getting ahead and I THI...I did...
