WEEKEND PHOTOS, AND AN UPDATE

Here's a few more photos from this weekend:

 ABOVE:  It's a hard life being a teenager... and a much loved little dog.  Coco was hounded by Archer all weekend.

ABOVE:  yeah.  Not much else to say... *smiles*

Today I have a morning shift and an afternoon shift at the Rest Home.  So I pretty much am out all day.  Luckily we have lots of left overs from last night's dinner, so I won't need to cook tonight.

ONWARD...

UPDATE:  a little while ago I told you I was terrified for someone in our family... who was facing an 'issue'.
Well... since then I've managed to calm down a bit, let the news settle and start to actually deal with it.

While not going into specifics, I can tell you that it is a medical issue with potentially a very serious outcome.
But we won't know till that person has seen a specialist, and THAT is going to take weeks, even months.

The person involved is on the 'HIGH/URGENT PRIORITY' waiting list to see said specialist through the public health system.  So we just have to wait.

I just hope waiting does not impact on the outcome.  

So there ya go... I'm still functioning OK... now the shock has worn off.  *smiles*

And now... I have to go to work.

5.55 pm:  And I am home from work, and immediately turned around and got dinner on.
We are having left overs from last night, so no biggie for me.  Thank god, cos I'm so tired!

Been one of those days.  Too many naked bums.  One bloody cranky old man who wanted me to chop the elastic out of his track pants cos they were too tight... they weren't even his.  *sigh*

Glad to be home.  But I do enjoy being at the Rest Home, nice to be with other people during the day.

The dogs miss me.  Marley has been very naughty, getting into things that she shouldn't, so now I have to lock them out of the rooms altogether when I'm not home.

Stew just got home, so I better get off here and spend some time with him before dishing up dinner.

Dinner was just lovely!  After dinner we went for a quick drive into Hamilton so I could travel on the new stretch of road at Tamahere, it was just opened today. 

And now, I'm literally falling asleep in my chair, so time I went to bed.
