Monthly Update

3 posts in one day. Yeh!!! Well I finally started at Coles as a Check Out Chick. The work is pretty easy and you are fairly busy all the time. I haven't had any offensive customers yet so that is good and they pay nearly $20/hour. Had 8 hours this week, 3 last, 11 the week before and 10 the first week. It is good to have money coming in weekly to tide us over until the monthly accounts get paid. Had my second Nutrimetics party last weekend and it went very well. Have another booked in for next month and some others thinking about it. Mowing is still going well even with the winter slowing down growth and rain limiting the mowing days. We had a pretty quiet school holidays and the boys are now back at school (though neither of them wants to be there). I better go and pick them up as it is raining and not great weather for walking. Catch up again soon.

Dirty Weekend

Patrick spent the weekend with his uncle at the 4WD park. They had a great time with the blokes. Camping, barbequeing, and 4 wheel driving. There had been quite a bit of rain so there was plenty of mud to drive through. I've included some photos. There is heaps more but Patrick hasn't been able to work out how to get them off the memory chip in his new phone.
Oops couldn't find any of them so I will post them later but here is Pat in his new hooded jumper looking like a real gangster. Scary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Request


It has been on my heart a lot lately to pr@y for this family. I am posting them here and asking for others to join me. I am not listing their name or the country they are in so that it can not be searched and therefore highlight them. (look closely at the photos). They have been working in this country for almost a year now. It is almost time to decide whether to come home or extend their time there and if to extend in the same or a different direction. Please pr@y for wisdom, safety and opportunity plus the education of the children.
