D Day

Hello Everyone.

It is with a very tired body and mind that I come to you.

Scott's 40th Birthday Party is tomorrow.

We have spent the last 5 days preparing for this event.

We have tidied, vacumned, mopped, swept, blower vacked, weeded, decluttered, shopped and used a high pressure guerney.

The children have been magnificent.

Amelia : "I am bored".

Tom : "I played footy and thought that I would come and watch a DVD with Amelia, to keep her company.
I watched barbie mum.
I WATCHED BARBIE !! ".

BUT they wanted a party WITH their daddy.
This is the ramification of that.

They may have laughed so much that Amelia dribbled all over her top.
She may have threatened to "wet her pants".

He is a GOOD brother.

"I looked after her" he said.

Truly. Honestly.
He is a good kid.

Thank you to Mardi, Kirsty and Fiona that helped us elevate the boredom.

We are now finished the clean-up.

We have approximately 90 people coming tomorrow night.
Approximately 50 are saying they will be here till morning.

Oh Dear.

There are also a few surprises for Scott.
SHHHHHH.
I cannot tell you.
He now reads this Blog!

So many friends from past and present to celebrate my marvelous husband with.

Yes.
I will be giving a speech.

Have an amazing night Scott.

See you on the other side everyone.

OMG.
Who would organise a massive party at home?
Oh yes. That would be us.

Scott's 40th.
(the man who has not written an entry on here YET!).

Last minute?
Yes that would be us!

Our garden and house is a MESS !!!!

After VERY expensive invites..... (text message) ..... we have A LOT of people coming.

Originally HE wanted it to be an adult only event (translation - lets get drunk) but the kids would hear nothing of that!
Amelia and Tom EXPECT to be there.

So now, we have many "families" attending.
Many children being babysat after a certain time.
Many children leaving at a decent time.

Not ours !!!!
Oh no.
They will be attending and being assisted to bed at some un-godly hour!

At least we will have MANY people here to help us!

Today was Day 1 of  "Operation of Clean Up".

Our "green bin is full" (and so are 2 of our neighbours!)

We have done the front yard only.

Exhausted.

We will do this.
We will achieve the impossible.

(MINE IS AT FRANKSTON RSL IF ANYONE WANTS TO COME - IN OCTOBER! - NOT AT HOME)

By the time Saturday rolls around, Scott and I will be rocking in the corner !!!!

PLEASE learn from US !!!!!

Cannot wait to get drunk on Saturday.
(Please do not look at ANYTHING I am may be tagged on Facebook).
