Wow Michael, 6 weeks! At least they are being careful, and looking after you. How will you get to work when you go back after your holidays? Are you feeling ok this morning?

Oh no. Not Zumba! My one and only experience with Zumba was the day after doing a Body Pump class only two weeks back into going to the gym after having bub 8 weeks prior. I felt like I'd been hit by a semi-trailer for about three days afterwards!!! Needless to say I've strategically avoided going back to that class again so far......

Never gotten a Tumblr but I've visted quite a few of them before..People can post some very strange things on it O.o

mine was working a few hours ago to Ill check now
I dont seem to be getting and e.mails either...I dont really have a problem with this seeing I just delete most of them any way lol
We are having terrible weather again...here's a link to our local paper showing some of the photos at the beaches... http://www.theherald.com.au/multimedi...

I also read about this boy..lucky he is safe but still- http://www.theherald.com.au/news/loca...
It's pretty calm here since 2 weeks ago...It's just really cold with the Mt getting lots and lots of snow.

Yes, he was an extremely lucky boy!!! On the news last night, his Mum couldn't stop cuddling him!!! Nice young kid too, so scary!!!
We just went to the beaches again, and boy oh boy!!! It's like a washing machine, so much white wash..we were sitting in the car (it's pouring) next to the fence, next to the ocean, and a wave crashed on the wall and hit the car!!! It's beach at the bottom of the wall normally!!

When I went looking around surf spots there was one point when coming home the sea was flooding the road..There isn't any barriers to keep it away from the road but nor does it usually get that high.

When I went looking around surf ..."
Yes, we headed away pretty quickly when that happened!!!
It's scary when the sea floods the road, isn't it!! I suppose if it doesn't happen often, they'd figure it wouldn't be worth putting a barrier up!

I agree Carmel, though he seemed a pretty sensible kid. He said he thought he would die, when being interviewed on the TV last night. He won't go near drains again in a hurry, I wouldn't think.

Don't worry Jess...it comes with the age!! It's a parents thing....they have to worry!
Be patient with them, cos I can 100% guarantee you'll be the same when you're their age with your own teenagers!

I can't believe how bad it's got up there! Areas that haven't seen any crime/violence in many years, all of a sudden. According to the TV, there's people who are thinking of selling up to get out of the area now!!

Merewether, our 'elite' suburb here in Newcastle, has registered 332ml of rain in the past 4 days!!!! We have taken over 180ml out of our gauge here at home, so far...thank goodness we didn't have as much as Merewether!!
