The infamous Christmas Tree

Well as promised here is a photo of our tree.

We have kept it very minimal this year. But we love it. We have blue xmas lights on it and some clear stars on the ceiling above it. Looks very tranquil. I have always wanted a white tree. It doesnt look very xmassy but I still love it...Chris reckons next year we will have purple decorations.. I threatened him with pink-lol.

What do you think of our tree?
It will look even more better with the presents underneath it, as i used blue/silver paper this year..

Not much to say.....

Well I honestly have not much to say.

It has beena trying week for me. The kids have been really pushing my limits and we are only half way through the term.
Alex is loving school visits and we go again on Wednesday.

Abi is being destructive. Pulling heads and legs of barbies and ripping books. I really hope its a phase.

Chris is still loving work as per usual. He is happy as a pig in mug though, he got given a dirt bike on the weekend but it needs some repairs, so that goes along the project pile with his go-kart.

As for me...im still getting used to the medication the doc gave me. im still really tired in the mornings.
But I have had a bed headaches for the last 2 days. I have out that down to Raspberry Raro juice.

I did some altered scrapping on the weekend. Turned out ok....
I have some invites to design and get made for 6 months time, yes its good. I have a lot of time to prepare.
As the barmaid job starts soon. Im really looking forward to that.

Well I went out Sunday morning, and Chris decided to out the Christmas tree up... so when i came home he had almost finshed assembling the tree. He was bored so he thought he woudl cheer me up with the tree. He did. I really like the tree... will post pics later today.

I finished and wrapped all my Christmas presents 2 weeks ago. Plus got my Christmas cards ready to post.
For once im onto it. But now they are bringing out the Christmas stock stuff to buy, but I will not buy anoything more except 3-4 boxes of choccies... you know for emergency presents.Will get them later as I dont want them to 1- be eaten and 2- get spolied in the heat.

I went thorugh our wardrobe yesterday OMG what a heaps of c-rap i keep. Threw out 90% of it. Keeping a very small box of stuff. Some will be placed in the china cabinet.


OMG, i do have alot to say dont I.....

I am so rapt and frickin happy. I didn't think I would get in...
I cant wait to start this. What a great adventure in the new year...

Will keep you posted about that.....


But I am so onto it ( yes blow butt I am)
I managed to complete 3 circle journals I was working on and a swap too in 2 days.
The CJ's are looking so great, some very excellent work coming out of them..


OK, as for the new meds I'm on... They seem to be working ok. I'm just tired 90% of the time, but getting used to it. It will take a bit for them to kick in....
Since I'm tired etc.. I have been in such a foul mood today. No one can do anything right.Poor Chris went and bought me some DVD's and I went off at him because they were ones I didn't want and because he never spent $$ on himself....
Hopefully I snap out of it quickly as I hate feeling this way and I'm on borderline tears.... hormonal I guess (well my excuse anyway).

I hope everyone is ok out there,

Please if you read this post a comment.....

Take care, be excellent to each other.

Finally some answers

Hi there,

Now some of you know I have been sick.

I have suffered form almost daily dizzy spells that the doctor insisted was Sinusitis.

Well after having this problem for 2 1/2 years I demanded i see an ENT specialist.

Well I finally got an appointment and went up to hamiton on Monday to see him.
He asked loads of questions and after oh 5 minutes he says its not Sinusitis..He was adamant is wasnt that.

he thought it could be my inner ear so he did a test on my eyes where i had to wear blackout goggles that video my eye movement. It was horrible at the time as the shook my head for 20 seconds,. talk about freak me right out.
Then did a couple of other small tests with the googles on, no nothing wrong with my eyes etc...

Had to stand on a large cushion and close my eyes so he could test my balance, I turned out to be better than average.

Then he asked about any head injuries.
I might have hit my head when i came off skate board at age 7 but nothing else.

he says that after asking many,many more questions that I suffer from

MIGRAINES!!!!!!!

Well, yes they are crap to have but OMG how cool... I can handle that...
its such a relfief to know what it is..

Now im on a preventative medication. so hopefully the attacks will not so frequent.

but yesterday I sat and looked up migraines on the computer.... after reading all the symptoms (yes dizziness and my other symptoms as migraines)
It all made sense. Im so pleased.
Now I am trying to figure out what triggers them off so Ican avoid it.I know high pitched noises is one, strong perfume is another and food may be one as well.
So I have a huge list of food I have to avoid...

I know being tired is another so im off to bed for a good sleep.

Take care all
