A hadedah bit through my ADSL line and once I couldn't find the "Duck" tape to fix it, then my kitteh threw my blackberry into the fishtank and I couldn't use it to post so I just gave up and sat and watched the fishes swim around and around until they hypontized me and I just didn't care anymore.... Then... what was I on about again? Oh. BTW did you know that there is no such thing as fish? I really need some woolies chocolate mousse...
Then, the fish (that don't really exist started eating the blackberry and soon there was only a stalk left.... Then I remembered I had a stalker the other day and he stole my will to live, so I decided to go and run after him to try to get it back..... but..... didn't have the will to do it. And more Hadehad descended on my house and ate my neighbours WIFI aerial too so I couldn't even hack into their account.

The lights in your house went out, and you had to burn it to get enough light to see the fuse box.

I know this is absurd, but a dog really ate it. Our neighbour's dog. He was about to bite this little girl, who's the same age as your daughter, when I decided to put the newsletter in the dog's mouth just so he wouldn't bite the terrified ...little girl who's the same age as your daughter. I am so relieved that the little girl-who's the same age as your daughter is fine now. I hope you don't mind me sacrificing the newsletter just to save that little girl who's the same age as your daughter. You don't mind, do you?

So due to lack of interest.....eeerrr lack of inspiration and with all that's going on in the economy...fuel prices going up!with all that's happening with mother nature-cyclones and all... I figured I'd hide out for a while till the world ...decides to behave in the appropriate manner...sooo seen as though neither have been co-operating and have been so "out of it" with regards to moods-not sure if its hormones or "early menopause"....being 2011 yrs old and all. I guess that explains my recent lack of motivation as well as the weird effects it has been having on me!so please if you have any complaints would you be so kind(here's to hoping you have not been affected either)direct them to mother nature or the economy-its THEIR fault I have not written a newsletter this year!best they get back to being their old selves soon so that I may continue writing;)
Or just go the simple way---- no news letter? WHAT? No way! Oops!

What do you mean there is no newsletter?? I did one, I'm sure of it! Or was that only a dream? No, I'm convinced one of my multiple personalities did it... didn't they? I'm going to have to have a serious chat with them, they are letting me down here. What are we talking about again? Wait, who am I? I'm confused... I need to get another prescription...

Lol, okay Debs... you were probably so involved in your personal life trying to run around like a chicken without a head sorting out your own kids items for school and helping hubby etc that you just didn't have the time... you clearly didn't have a bar one day (25 hours instead of 24) hehe

My excuse for not having done my Moms Matter Newsletter is, well after trying to juggle a very busy full time job, taking orders, placing orders, delivering orders, getting two boys ready for school, trying not to forget the swimming gear, cricket bat etc, doing homework, making supper, cleaning house, and when I finally sat down to do it between "2am and 3am", I guess I fell asleep, better use toothpicks next time to keep the eyes open or an intravenous supply of coffee

'The enormous amount of tears from heaven during December flooded my house with debris and mud. My ADSL router got water damaged and my keypads got mouldy. When it's not raining I bathed in the long over due sun rays till I've burned all my overindulgence this holiday away. After I nurtured my blotches and was finally able to move off the bed, school opened and fees were due. I was too poor to reconnect my internet and too exhausted getting 3children back to weekday routine...'
