My lastest craze

I have been neglecting my blog lately due to the fact that Farmville has taken over my life. Since Kerry Ann introduced me to Farmville I seem to spent most of my time planting crops and harvesting them. That is apart from looking after all my livestock and trees. I didn't think farm life would be so consuming. I even have to rush home so that I can harvest my crops before they die. I lost my strawberry crop some time again and didn't want that experience again. At the moment I am saving up to buy a Manor. This is a picture of my farm in miniature. It is actually Tony's farm because it is on his facebook but I run it. I will have to just plow my land and leave it without any crops when we go to New Zealand on Tuesday as there is nothing that takes 10 days to grow. I have six neighbours and need two more so if anyone would like to be my neighbour let me know.


Craig has been quite stressed out at work and needed a few days away so we looked after Emily on Sunday. We went to Parramatta Park for a picnic with Kerry, Felise and Jake. I packed a lunch of dip and biscuits, chips, sandwiches, mini cup cakes and strawberries. We munched into these then went to the playground for some fun. Unfortunately I lost my good watch. It must have come unclipped, so although everyone enjoy themselves, there was a hint of disappointment. Next day Tony went out and brought me a $10 one from BigW which is just as good as it does the same thing; lets me know the time.









On Thursday I hung out a line full of clothes for Kerry while looking after Jake. Rain was forecast but it turned out to be a very sunny morning and I took Jake to the park where he played on the pirate ship and ran around chasing all the birds. When we returned home we had lunch and I didn't realise it was starting to rain. When I did, I grab Jake and rushed out to bring in the clothes that were nearly dry. When I looked around Jake was standing there and the raining was pouring down on him. The look on his face was priceless. He looked at me as if to say "where's this water coming from. its all over me". He thought it was fun.

I'm about to pack my overnight bag as we are staying at Rydges Hotel, Camperdown tomorrow night. Our friends, Terry and Janet from Stanmore are celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversary with a dinner at the hotel. They were going to hire John Paul Young to perform but he wanted $15,000 for the night which was way too much so they have settled for a substitute.
