I spent 4 days over xmas in Mildura staying with my mum. I was bored stupidd as usual, xmas day was spent at my sisters with my extennded family and I might as well have not been their, ignored mostly and nothing I said or have done is good enough. I managed to only take a couple of photos. One photo is off the ancestral home buiilt by my great grandfather and where my mum lived until she got married, it was sold long before I was born so I have never seen inside..

The only way is up!

Wow, I woke up with a hangover and not feeling great but I had a fantastic night out, not sure about the $20. martini though. Met some new people and some I already new so had a great time, but all that walking from bar to bar i have blisters.

This year is almost at an end and finally some good is happening. I don't have to move house, a freind of mine has bought this place as an investment and I can stay on as the tenant indefinately. I can also get a gate put up and look at getting a dog. this is fantastic.

Time for me to go and eat and have lots of water to make me feel better.

TGIF

I ve had a much better day today. Dropped my kids at school and went to the gym and took out all my frustrations there. Good way to make you feel better.

Then I went and puchased my daughters books for high school, I can't believe it is 12 years since she was born, a lot has happened in that time.

Tonight I am going on a mystery bar tout in the city so I best have some money on me, it will be fun catching up with a few people I know and having a drink before xmas. Hope I don't have to much of a hangover in the morning.

Tears

I cried myself to sleep last night, and I woke this morning still crying. Why do I put myself out there to meet guys and they cant even take the time to get to know me. I ended my day with a great xmas dinner with some ladies that I have known for years and we had a fantastic time but even they don't know deep down how I feel, they have all been married for a long time. I know they would say to me don't worry about men you don't need them and yes to a certain extent I don't need a man. I don't portray myself as anything other than a caring, loyal person who has a life but also has a lot of love to give. Like any body my life doesnt flow smoothly and Ive had the odd stressfull moment throughout the year and with the year about to close I am hoping for a much brighter better year next year and if that means another year of putting all my love towards my kids then so be it.

Yesterday I went to Daylesford, the temperature was 42c and the bushfires where raging in the north east and there was a blanket of the smoke accross the sky. I went to cricket willow and they where playing a cricket match in the heat. I will go back again in autumn after rain so I can go and photograph Sailors falls, Trentham falls and the blowhole. Mt Franklin will also look great in Autumn.
