Looking Forward to some R&R!

It has been a long week. With the long weekend being so busy and things looming over our heads.

Yes things were looming, no wait they were pushing down on us so hard that we were scared shit less. What I am referring to is a melanoma that Jay had removed from his back. It was small but had a funny raised head on it and had been bleeding. So while on a visit for a chest infection that had lasted 3 weeks (that's another story) it was removed for further examination. We had to wait from Friday till Wednesday for results. It was a sickening wait with Jay feeling very vulnerable and scared. I was worried out of my mind. It was so horrible to feel helpless. Jay has been away the last two days working so I had to give all my support via phone. Not fun believe me! Anyway much to our relief today Jay rang the Dr and everything is fine. Boy did we both sigh quite loudly. We both feeling alot better now we know he is o.k!

The long weekend was great we spent Saturday at Moomba which I always thought was so much bigger than it was. I am glad we only stayed a while due to the heat as the prices of rides were ludicrous! Jax insisted on having a go at the clown game. You know the one, it always results in a crappy plastic toy in the end. Jax and I also went on this caterpillar rollercoaster which he thought was great. He tried to rope Jay into it but of course he was too tall so it was up to mum!
The other fun thing we did was get the kids minded over night so we could go to "A day on the green" which featured Clare Bowditch, Lior and John Butler. It was all about having a picnic and a great time watching some great bands. We went with a couple of friends. Although it was a hot day we indulged in a bit of wine, a mud fight and some dancing. Great day! I also had the pleasure of meeting Lior, lovely man is all I can say. This weekend looks to be a busy one again. Going away on a craft weekend to Ocean Grove. Woo Hoo! Great company, great food, great massage and great crafty delights! I am hoping to work on the pirate I have been making for Jax. Hopefully get some felting done and some home work too. As I said a busy weekend. 2 more sleeps and counting!
