Yes, I know it has been a long time since I last wrote in my blog. Bad Netnanna. I must declare that the countdowns have well and truely started. Yes I do mean countdowns. I must say they started ages ago but have crept up on us as they usually do. The most important one of course is the birth of our granddaughter in just 7 weeks. Then the overseas trip to be with Casey and Nathan for this beautiful time .We are lucky to be able to be included in this happy event. 6 weeks to go there. You know when it is close because Graeme always writes the days on the calender in the toilet,Heavens knows what else he gets up to there. Now the other day my daughter Kristen announced that her birthday is coming up, mind you it is not until November. She is always excited about birthdays even though she is all grown up now. She tries to make every birthday special for everyone,it’s great. The other day someone at work said not long to Christmas I put my foot down about that. It’s madness. Anyway the countdowns really have started in this family. What about yours?
