Cooler Weather

I am loving this ever so slight cooler weather. As much as I love QLD weather there is nothing better than a huge cold burst. I love wearing jeans, jackets, trenches and knee high boots. Unfortunately the time frame to do this in sunny QLD is not long enough. I wish we could wear beanies etc.

Last week I was exhausted but I am feeling a little more energised this week. This is a slow process. Today I was privileged to meet with a group of young women (all mothers) going through breast cancer. There are always tears at these meetings but it is lovely that we all know what everyone is going through and we can be there for each other.

I just had little ones parent teacher interview and am glad to say he is a very solid performer. Teacher is a little concerned about his hearing ( I will have this tested) but I suspect it is the selective hearing gene that afflicts all XY humans in the house!!!

In an effort to get organised I did something a little unique on the weekend - my plan that was implemented today is:

I picked 5 evening meals for the week (all easy, yummy and healthy) that I will cook for three weeks. This takes the guesswork and hopefully angst associated with the "what will we have for dinner" and makes shopping easier! Tonight was homemade hamburgers - salad, rolls and the lovely rissole made with carrot, zucchini, mince, 1 egg, tablespoon of wheatgerm. All enjoyed. Rest of the week is: nasi goreng, salmon pie, chicken noodle salad and garlic chicken with greens!!! no change for three weeks boys!!

Tomorrow is first day of rads - yah - no bloody chemo!! XOXO
