Sam the gardener...





Sam planting his pumpkin and sunflower seeds earlier this week. (I'll add Abby's to her homeschool blog later)

You can also see here that Sam decided to cut his own hair last week when I was totally out of it from my new meds.....I tried to tidy it up as best I could but that was difficult without cutting it VERY short :( I asked him why he cut it and he said he wanted to make himself beautful! lol!

Skating on the driveway...



I'm not sure you SHOULD be able to skate on a driveway but its great that you CAN....lol!!!!

Sam just hanging around on Monday.....





Jasper exercising on the climbing frame...

Charlie barley out for a stroll....




.....and a game of soccer with Charlie......

Enjoying the warmer weather....


Friday

Morning - breakfast with Val, Andrea and Christie. It was chaotic but fun. Grace was back and was an absolute Saint with Sam! Sam decided to impress everyone with size of his penis right in the middle of the restaurant (were you all suitably impressed??? Woohoo!)Andreas Son then decided this game was great and stripped off his boots and pants again in the middle of the restaurant....next time Abigails going to start pole dancing....who'd have thought the Esso was THAT kind of restaurant!

Afternoon - I went into town to comfort a friend - who ended up comforting me!! Wah! It turned out to be a lovely heartwarming afternoon - a special close-friendship kind of afternoon and at least, if nothing else, she knows how much she means to me........

Evening was spent catching up with my blog and chatting a little at the scrappers haven online crop. Lloyd was working beside me as there were problems at work so that worked out ideal really.

Oh and the wonderful thing is my meds are having an amazing effect on my appetite still - my scales don't work so I can't weigh myself but these are the first migraine meds that work (no migraine in a week) that don't make me gain weight - I have gained so much weight in the last year because all my meds have had side effects of weight gain and bloating and increased appetite etc etc horrid.....especially the amitriptyline...and the ones that make you lethargic etc etc.....but topamax is often prescribed now for weightloss too woohoo so this one has the lovely side effect of weightloss :) I have no appetite and when I do get hungry I can't eat much and I don't want anything junky - no interest in anything that I have baked - no brownies of cookies......I eat hardly any of my dinner....yesterday at breakfast I ate a quarter of a piece of toast...one piece of hash brown and a little egg and was full!!!

So Lloyd is force feeding me lol and keeps making me eat little and often :)

Have a great weekend everyone!
