My Uncle passed away

My Uncle Fernando has passed away. My cousin rang me last night to tell me. Total shock!
His body is being sent down from Carnarvon to Perth for an autopsy to determine how he died as he was only 39! Would of turned 40 in July.
My poor Nanna (his mum) on seeing the body had a nervous breakdown and is in hospital also now.
Everyone has been contacted and we are all awaiting news of the autopsy and what the results will be.

On top of this news I have the flu so I has pretty congested to begin with and did not get much sleep and just layed there wondering when was the last time I actually saw and spoke to him.
Life really is too short!

How I will remember him: Very corny story:
The only English music my parents would allow us to listen to while growing up was ABBA and I honestly thought (being 10 at the time) that the song Fernando was written about my Uncle. :)

Re: Yesterdays Rant

Bit of a rant yesterday! Very emotional day and having my doctors appointment first thing did not help especially when she said that I have to cut out all the Junk Food from my diet including chocolate (so unfair) as apparently I have still 8 weeks to go (no kidding!) and have almost put on the maximum weight for a pregnant women!
So needless to say, I was NOT HAPPY! I honestly think I am doing well and still getting enough vegies and no stretch marks yet! (that I can see anyway!) So considering she has not got any children and from what my friends who do have told me how much weight they put on I am not going to worry about it!

As if I could ever give up chocolate!
One good thing: I can drink more coffee as it will help to raise my blood pressure (apparently it is a bit low!) LOL!

Anyway, watching DH packing his bag and getting his stuff ready to go next week did not help either as it only just fully sunk in for the both of us what he will be missing...
I am just lucky to have such supportive friends, both here and far. :)

One week from today...

DH goes to recruit school for 10.4weeks!
He will be missing Squishy's birth and we do not know whether he will be able to come back after the recruitment course and before the next course starts which unfortunately falls a week shy of six months so I am unable to go with him!
So at this point in time it could be up to almost 9 months before we live together again!
It is all just a waiting game!

Photos coming!

DH got my computer out of storage and I am using it along with f-i-l's phone line for the internet so I can upload my photos online and do all my other craft related stuff online too!
Too cool!
So some of the previous posts will get updated with photos before my next long post!

Mt Buller











OMG I have never seen so many buildings all crammed in together on such a high mountain! No where to park, construction workers everywhere! At least I can now say that I have been to the snow!
Really did not take all that many photos!
