Another week finished...
Where does the time go, oh hold on I spend most of my time doing housework, building a website, cleaning snotty noses, wiping bottoms, blogging or doing stupid stuff on Facebook. I have to admit it that I'm on Facebook. And find it totally annoying when I receive a message from facebook asking me to long in read messages. Grrrr!
I do sometimes get the chance to do something less boring than this, and I managed to get some time to photograph the kids at my friends house. And here is the fruit of my labours (all 2 of them!)
Some Elvis photos too!

365
365 days ago a little angel appeared. She captured our hearts from the moment we saw her and ever since she has smiled and laughed every day of her life.
Emily I wish you happiness and blessings for ever and a day.

Some updates
Yes I've been quiet, mainly because I ran out of disk space. Good news is I bought a new one (500GB) and installed 2GB of RAM. So that should at least give me another years worth of space for videos and photos.
Here are some photos from our trip to Alton Towers

Yes that hurts
Yesterday I had my first physio appointment for my sore back. Over the last 2 months I've had a plethora of differing aches and pains. I even once pulled a muscle from lifting a dining chair, and that left me lying in bed all day whilst my back spasmed.
We did the usual filling in the history of my back problems from the car crash to baby care and general health. She then got me to lie face down on her therapy couch while she had a go at locating the problems and oh my god I nearly jumped off the couch with so much pain. She started off at the base of my skull and pressed on the neck muscle and worked down to my left shoulder. It took all my reserve strength not to jump off that couch. Even my palm became sweaty with the pain. But she was doing her job! She continued down the neck, and into the shoulder and she even showed me the difference by pressing the other side of my neck and shoulder to show me how much less painful that side was.
Next she gave me some ultrasound to help loosen the muscle. Now this is odd as when you say ultrasound I couldn't help of thinking about babies and ultrasounds, but alas no pictures were made during this session.
Finally she gave me a couple of exercises to do which will help lengthen the neck muscles and ease some pain.
I really can't wait to see her again. I felt really happy and good yesterday. I finally had some answers to my crabby mood for the last month because I have been in pain, and tired from not being able to sleep most nights.
Hurrah, hurrah ! :)

Bye Bye Murphy
Today we had to say goodbye to Murphy. Murphy was old, 15 years!, and was suffering from renal disease for a long time. Yesterday he collapsed but recovered quickly but today he suffered a seizure and Drew had to take him to the vet. The vet agreed that he was close to the end and we all decided it was best for him not to suffer any longer. Murphy went to sleep peacfully. So to you my ginger haired fat cat - I salute your ever happy character. The time you dozed on the edge of the couch and fell off in your sleep. You were a happy dumb ass cat!

Hello Again
I've not been blogging recently due to a couple of things
A) I have been busy
B) ran out out hard disk space on my home PC and couldn't upload new photos
C) just been a lazy git
If I have time I'll blog some more

summer laze
I have been a bit lazy over the past few weeks, things have started getting busy again with the run up to school. We've had to go shopping for some new skool threads as The Pheebs has either grown taller or ruined the other ones. The kids have needed new shoes and as always Clarks was busy the day we visited. Emily got her first set of shoes too. They look cute but sometimes she gets the hissy fits with them and takes them off. I think she's like me and prefers to wonder around in bare feet all the time. In fact whilst I'm writing this my trainers are off (no comments about the smell please - these are fresh socks!)
If any of you are planning some fun activity holidays then there is no better place than here http://public.box.net/robfernall. Rob is a fellow workmate (and Microsoft challenger) . He's been advertising his newly refurbished holiday cottage and I have to admit that once I read the details I was mighty excited and wanted to go for a holiday. Lots to see and do all year round in Slovenia.
