WELL ITS HAPPENING

After 9 gruelling months im about to be a NANA shit im a bit scared i never been a nana before so i hope im gonna be a good one.

Ive rung my dad and told him his Great grandson is on his way so hes excited but now im a bit worried bout the next phase in me life i never been an orphan before either :-(

will keep u all updated on the progress

WELL HES BACK IN HOSPITAL :-(

I got a fone call this morning at 5.30 from my sister Erica dad was taken to hospital at 3am my brother and her thout they would let me sleep as dad has had me running around for him over the last few days and they both new i wasnt coping.

So up i went at 8.30 he was having heart trouble and his breathing wasnt the best, his ankles are now swelling so his kidneys are failing again he keeps bugging me bout Brock wants to see him before he goes.

The specialist Dr Holst (Yip thats right Alisons daughter) shes really nice and concerned bout dad she thinks that maybe we look at putting dad into a hospital wing in a rest home as he needs more care than the home can give him he was concerned about where we are going to put him as he really likes the home that hes in so he said he would only go into Combrae in feilding so we have to have family meeting and see his social worker that is if he survives this episode.

well the rain has stopped and the sun is now shining so i better go and do the dishes

LETS HOPE NEXT YEAR IS BETTER

Cause god knows i cant take much more of this crap.

Dads not to good hes been in and out of hospital and its putting a real strain on me heart Ive not told neil bout the pains he just dont seem to understand what im going thru both of his parents are still here and now im gonna be an orphan any day now and i feel so alone.

When you watch someone dying its the hardest thing in the world.

The neighbours are really pissing everyone off they have gone and chained the only remaining gate and that bloke actually owns the driveway man what a ruckess that caused he cut the chain and lock and then ran over the gate when the neighbours were approached they had the nerve to say it was us we think hes trying to cause trouble the bustard the neighbour told him in now if you ever lock me gate again there will be more trouble than he can handle so lets hope he listens eh.

Well chrisy has been and gone and im so looking forward to next year
Brock is nearly here hes giving his mum a bit of a hard time hes not in the right position and shes havin real probs with her back.
Dad has told the home hes just waiting to see Brock thens its all over.
Brock will be his first greatgrand child and hes so looking forward to meeting him so im excited about Brock coming but sad at the same time cause i know as soon as im a nana dad will give up so its real hard at the mo eh.
well the dishes are waiting so chow for now

Well it finally happened

Well the neighbours have finally pissed of the one person that they shouldnt, the man with the power to CUT of there water and yip they been cut off LOL that will teach them eh
they all shitty now I wonder why lol
Well you cant be upseting everyone but they have there are 4 of us in our little lifestye blocks who all get along we share the grass so the stock have plenty to eat they even share the grass with one of the neighbours when theres run out so why would you go and upset everyone like they have all over a gate that they blocked up, they have now paddlocked every singe gate in our community so we have to cut the chains to move the stock then they call the police and send nasty letters to everyone. Not very nice people at all.

Cant wait for them to move and get some good neighbours cause i dont like the fricton all this is causing.

Well i have lost 4.8 kilos since i last blogged cool eh im being so good its scary i have been going to a meeting in feilding as its hard going to meetings in palmy when just about all the members know you a leader and sometimes you just want to sit back and just be a member to.
Just cause you a leader you dont have all the answers and when things go wong with you you go get help from the others so thats what ive done good on me eh.

Dads not been to good he had another heart attack and spent 5 days in hospital he played up merry hell as well when they wouldnt let him out of there, behaved like 2 year old was so embarassing we had to tell him off and when he left he done the fingers to the hospital well did he get a telling off then the naughty little boy. Its so sad to watch someone who used to be so independant and active reduced to a 2 year old in nappies
if i go like him someone please shoot me i dont want to be remembered like that.

The bears have settled well into there new rooms i leave the wardrobe doors open (they connect the 2 rooms together) so they dont stress out to much well so i dont stress to much lol cant handle them being seperated sad i no but thats me lol i have brought a couple more and neil hasnt spied them yet lol man im good eh
well i had better go and get some house work done
chow for now

I bet you wondered where i was eh

Well i've been busy moving all them bears. YES i moved them and what a mission it was but they moved now so i aint gonna move them again so he better be happy with were they are or there be hell to pay im a telling ya.

Well ive been real busy went up to auckland on saturday for leaders seminar and all i can say is KEEP coming cause you will all be excited when you find out whats in store for you all cause i am.:-)
I had a wonderful time catching up with chris shes got a lovely home but there so many people who live in auckland and how she dont get lost i will never know. so im looking forward to her coming down soon :-)
By the way chris that lotto ticket SUCKED big time worse one i ever got lol oh well lets hope me Big wed ticket is better eh.


The weathers been a bit shitty here with a real nice day thrown in now and then so todays ok it could be better.

You wont believe what i did today man i can be so lazy sometimes, but in my defence it a bit cold now and i really needed to go to the loo so i usually drive me car down the drive then walk up the drive and pick up the wheelie bin then walk down me drive to drop it in its spot (now me drive if you dont know is about 160 meteres long so it aint a 2 sec job ok) so lazy me stuck the handle over me tow bar and off i went now how i didnt think of it sooner i will never know it was so easy but then on the exercise front i suck today but i got powerplate this arvo so i dont feel to bad now eh well i better go fix his tea and get ready for power plate so chow for now.

THEY MOVING TODAY HONEST

Its very sad at my place today :-( YES they are moving, it dont seem fair to stick me bears in to two rooms when they were perfectly happy in the one.
especially when the room they were in is now not going to get used . Now i wonder if i was to tell him to move his beloved junk out of the garage what sort of reception i would get huh.

well hes off down at mitre 10 so he can get a bit of wood so he can mount his new tv and we moved the old tv into the lounge last nite after a few of the bears were removed i wonder if he gets me any shelving that hes been promising to get me for a while now while hes there. I need a few shelves put up in the new rooms for the bears so that when Brock comes to stay they wont get hurt.

well this aint getting them moved or improving my mood so I better get cracking.

SEAMS IVE UPSET THE OLD FARTS LOL LOL

Well im terriblelly sorry for calling the girls OLD FARTS seams we are young farts lol so im SOOOOOOOO SORRY GIRLS. seams im learning a thing or to about bloging seems Capitals are not excepted in the blogging community as you all think im YELLING AT YOU but im not honest im just to lazy to keep pushing the shift button so im juat gonna try my best and not be lazy. -)

Well neil is back and hes about to upset the neighbours by moving the cows so, to do that he has to cut the chain that the stupid people put on our gate, we can expect the cops this arvo i think. But we have the permission of the other neighbours to move them so there gonna be squabbles in the neighbourhood tonight lol.

Morning tea was good had a lovely chat with the girls it was just so nice to sit back and just chat and not have to hurry home so im looking forward to the next one.

Well bloggers the day has come I have to move me lovely bears i can put it off no longer hes getting grumpy so im gonna do it a bit at a time so i dont get to stressed i know you all think im quite mad they only bears after all but they are more to me than that and those that know me understand that sooo i better get off me chuff and get cracking :-(
i have to hide the 7 others that arrived while he was away I'm soooooooo bad eh lol

WORKED WORKED WORKED I think i need some fun so someone suggest something fun for me to do..
I await ur suggestions.

well so far this week i have been to work and cooked tea then i went to power plate then i did the Wendy suffle down my hall lol thank god the kids have moved out it must have looked funny
Today i have worked been to the accountants (boring) cooked tea and rested me weary feet so now i have to get ready for weightwatchers tomorrow nite so i think tomorrow i will go out for tea cause god knows im not cooking when i get home at 8.45 its way to late to eat then eh.

Well the bears have survived another week in the lounge at this rate they will still be there next year lol hopefully he wont remember that he wants me to move them so they can all stay togther that would be nice eh.

I eagerlly await your suggestions for me fun times

TIME FOR ME TODAY

Had weight watchers this morning i must say it gets hard when you take 4 meetings a week you just seem to be repeating yourself so i hope that all members got something out of it i have to remember that they have only heard me once eh.
Ive got them all doing the wendy shuffle this week so it is gonna be interesting to see how many do it eh.

After the meetings it was off to coffee morning is was good to catch up with everyone.
YES Chris we missed you talked about your party sorry but i just cant make it if it was on the saturday i could have been do-able but not on the sunday sorry mate i will just have to try and get up on a long weekend :-)

well its time for me to do me bookwork the tax man a callith so chow for now

ANNE the wendy shuffle is
you get on the floor (best the hallway or big lounge) legs in front and shuffle forward then when you knackered you shuffle back (its great for the arse)
Sooooooooo go do the wendy shuffle lol

RIB RIBS AND MORE RIBS

Well we went to Lone Star its really nice there and you get good meals.
Yip you guessed it I had the Ribs but i took off the chips and coleslaw (they have more dressing than coleslaw there) and had veges instead. wasnt that good of me. I couldnt eat them all so i left them there didnt want to take them home and eat em and i didnt even have pudding so i think i did really well.

work was real busy today then about 1.15 a truck decided to do a delivery to the guys at the back of us and backed straight ito me shop what a bloody noise it made and the damage i hear you ask ????

well he took out the spouting damaged a few boards but lucky for him me big windows stayed in tacked. it gave us all a bit of a fright then it was the talk of the bakery the customers all got into the act seems this particular truck driver has a repretation for running into things silly bugger i ask you how can you miss a building seems he has a problem with backing he said he cant so what the hell is he doing with a truck licence you would think that it would be a requirement for holding one wouldnt ya, aparently not he better not come back, but the damage wasnt as bad as last time we got hit.
when we were at the other shop a truck came in the front doors now that was impressive i can tell ya, so i shouldnt be to upset with this chap least me customers can get in eh lol

well its coffee time tomorrow and im meeting the girls at 10.30 its our first coffee morning since Chris left it wont be the same without her but we gonna have fun anyhow
well better go and get tea ready chow for now

I took my nephew Jamie totally buggered him out i bet his mums gonna be impresssed with that hes bet me to bed lol

whos the old fart now eh hahaha
nite nite

BUGGER ME 2 DAYS IN A ROW LOL

Well i bet this has given you a shock Sandra Blogging 2 days in a row i must be sick eh YIP crook as a dog been to the doc what an idiot told me to gargle salted water for me cough (which ive had for a month) gave me some pills to block me up as i cant fart or otherwise you guessed it need to change me knickers then sent me on my way.

I think i better go back and ask to see my doc dont like that other one.
I havent eaten since monday cant hold anything down ive coughed so much that my stomach hurts and last night my chest was getting tight so i poked me husband and sure enough he just kept on sleeping to bad if i'd died eh.

Well dad has settled into to his new home and we are going to sell his little flat.
Me big bro Mark not happy im sure he thinks dads gona go mad and spend his inheritence but who cares its his money not ours let him enjoy it i say

I cant go visiting yet as im to sick and dont want to pass on this nasty bug but i must say i think ive had a good loss this week not a good way to lose weight but its the only possitive thing to come out of it but next week when im eating i bet i put some of it back on :-(

It seems that when dad was in hospital i got made chief toe nail clipper im not to happy bout that it wasnt the nicest thing ive had to do but it beats washing his bum yes i did that too seems the nurses to busy for these basic nessiseties same that cause now i have images i dont need lol

They also lost his teeth so im having to chase up what they gonna do about that aswell. Its not like im busy or anything eh i just got work, family, weightwatchers, soccer, all the farm animals.

Then 2 weeks ago i got home from work to find my beloved cat not well by the time i got her to the vet she had gone down hill real fast
she was completly blind and couldnt walk so we had to have her put down i just sobbed and sobbed it had been the most horendous month what with me heart then me dad now i lost my cat we had her for 16 years so we have had her cremated and now shes back here in a rimu box i just cry everytime i see it :-(

well lets hope that this month gets better eh

well i better get back to bed so i can get better

HES HANGING IN THERE............

Well hes survived the week all of us are here now Rosalie and Elizabeth arrived thursday nite Liane arrived wed nite so were all here and things are really strained.
I had to have my stress test which didnt go well now i have the girls watching me and telling tales to the nurses my blood pressure is now 175 over 115 so they not happy and i have to wait around like im going anywhere lol.

dad is now out of danger for now he needs dialysis and now he has a falling blood count they have told us that if his count goes below 80 he is in danger of a heart attack and he has a non resus order out so we are geting a bit stressed eh

well its 4 weeks down the track every one has gone home so its up to me and Erica and Stephen to look after him its getting a bit much now hes very demanding but hes alive if only just 30% of him
his kidneys are working at 30%
liver at 20 %
lungs at 25%
so hes a bit stuffed.
they have transfered him to star 2 and making him do things which is good as he wants to go home were not happy about that as he cant walk let alone get out of bed and clean him self hes incontentent so its a big problem how do you tell someone who is extremelly independant that it dont look like
hes going home.

Well they have taken him home for a home visit to see how he copes and he didnt as we expected
on Tuesday we had a family group conference which went well the doc told dad that if he went home and he fell then he would break his hip and would prob not survive it so dad has some thinking to do
Well he has decided to go into a home so on thursday we are going looking.
Well he seams a hit with the ladies they swarmed around him like fresh meat lol
he has gone back to hospital with some reading to do but he seems to have made his mind up

well hes made his mind up hes going to Willard home so he moves on Wed and hopefuully the pressure will be off us a little and he can get back to living as god nos he not done to much of that lately hes looking forward to getting back to Lodge so lets hope that goes well

AND THE SAGA CONTINUES....../.

Dads in ccu hes not breathing to good and my big brother is on his way its now 8pm and we have been here all day. Amanda came up from wellington and is here for the week





Jillian my new daughter in law tobe has arranged things at work so i can be up at the hospital as they have told us dad isnt expected to make it. :-( Im sitting in his room when he informs me mum is here now im worried as mum died 16 yeasrs ago so is she here to take him away or to reasure him he gonna b ok?



So i just say HI MUM but its to late shes gone oh well maybe she will come back im real upset as dads dying and im alone in his room then me brother turns up and we have the best chat we have ever had.



Dad is in and out of it but we manage a few words which where special



Mark tells dad that on the way from rotorua he was trying to think of his time with dad but couldnt think of any good memorys and Dad said he wasnt a good dad had no time for us and he was sorry for that then he said something that made my whole upbringing finally make sense he waid that out of all the kids (there are 7 of us) 1 was picked on the most. Yip you guessed it he said it was Sandra (i knew this as i allways thout i got the raw end of things ) it was just so cleansing finally having some one say they were sorry for the way i had always been treated.



SUNDAY

Dad makes thru the night. I have a house fill of people my brother Mark is staying Neils cousin and his partner and kids where there when we got home last night so there are bodies everywhere i just have to get out im not coping to many people to feed and not enough food so i went shopping Mark comes along and helps replenish my cubboards as we have my sisters coming over from aussie.

We arrive at the hospital dad is not doing well hes kidneys are failing he cant speak to good its realy heartbreaking to watch, mum has been back and bugger me if my brother dosnt go and knock her over scared the shit out of us all when dad started going crazy at him poor stephen doesnt know what to do he couldnt see her we all ask where she is before we move as we dont want to go knocking her over again.

its now 11pm and the fone goes we need to get up to the hospital ASAP so me and mark go as fast as i can drive and bugger me if i dont beat him to dads room (he has running medals) lol me training is paying off i think.

Dads not to good wants to sort his funeral hes been blacking out so wants to put things in order. Doc not happy with his progress told us get family over asap

IM BACK.............

Well last time i blogged i said it was a nighmare week WELL GUESS WHAT its been a NIGHTMARE 5 WEEKS.
Let me explain
on the 18th july my son geoffrey had his engagement party I was doing the catering (the good mum that i am) and it all started badly when i pulled a muscle in my back so to get thru all the things i had to do i just popped a pill and off i went but me back didnt like that so i took a stronger pill. My lovely friends from my soccer team (GO THE MUPPETS) came and gave me a hand i would have been screwed without them i can tell ya.
Then my dad turned up and he was mad as he hadnt got an invite ( yes he did he just forgot) so when we finally get home to get changed i sit down and bugger me if i dont go and have a slight little HEART ATTACK got rushed to the docs who put me in an ambulance and sent me to hospital and you guessed it i missed the party.

At the hospital they found a heart murmer and high blood pressure and asked me if i was under any stress DERRRRRRRRR my whole life is stressful what with the lightening strike, sons engagement, my dads deterating health , not to mention my job it gets a bit much sometimes but i manage you just do eh
Well that put paid to me playing soccer on the the sunday the coach and the doc said NO so i wnt and watched :-(

Well all week i was knackered it just took all me energy to get round so i took the saturday of weightwatchers and slept in

THEN ME FONE GOES nads its my sister from aussie she had juwst rung dad and was concerned with his breathing so i rang me big sis who lives round the corner and wake her up (shes a night nurse in a nd e) she said just check hes taken his meds so off i go i had me sister txting me from aussie telling me hes real bad and then another txt saying dads rung an ambo love and death
i didnt check the sender just thout it was my sis telling me he was dying so i put me hazzard lights on and speed like crazy didnt do me heart any good i can tell ya
When i get to his place which is 20 mins from mine i find me brother in law there hes rung the ambo seems love and death is my nephews signiture on his fone (little shit) so he got a telling off and changed it pronto
Well dad was in a bad way i went in the ambo with him to the hospital where my sister met us and there we waited while they tried to stablize him.
they transfered him to CCU he had phenumonia, kidney failure and he was septic as he hadnt done anything bout his legs being ulcerated what a mess
well i have to go and help Neil clean the carpets but i will be back to finish off me story till later

WHAT A NIGHTMARE WEEK SEE IF YOU CAN BEAT IT

Well to say that i've had the week from hell is no understatement let me enlighten you
Friday was cooking meat at work for the soccer club mid winter xmas dinner and you guessed it took it out of the oven and got covered in boiling hot water badly burning my arm (crap it hurt)
then the fone goes and its me dearly loved son MOM WE HAVE NO WATER seems we have a leak in the water tanks, i've got a burning arm and he wants me to go find the water nahhhhhhhh, ring the plumber god dam it i go so he rings around and the only 1 available comes around looks at said pump and informs us we been struck by lightening so that explains a few things
1. no oven
2. no microwave.
3 no dishwasher
4. no water pump
5. 7 lightbulbs blown
but we got no water and its pissing down outside so when hubby gets home he goes investagating and finds 50,000 LITRES OF WATER in the pig paddock, pigs happy as larry, hubby not so.
SATURDAY
shut of one of the tanks that is leaking and wait for rain to full up the other tank
piddling down with rain so should not take long.
borrow a pump from the neighbour (lovely guy) but something not right with that one as well
ok so by this time im dirty need a bath
need to get washing done

WELL IM GONNA READ MY BOOK NOW AS ITS TIME FOR ME R & R BEEN A LONG HECKTIC WEEK AND TIME TO DESTRESS I THINK.

I DID THIS POST BY MYSELF (CLEVER EH)

HELLO EVERYONE,
I got such a suprise to see that people have read my blog and asked me a few questions so i will do my best to answer them.

FIRSTLY THE BEARS
well thats a long story they did have there own room but that got to small and they started migrating around the house so i got the hard word and they all moved into the lounge as we use the family room hubby didnt mind them in there as it ment we then had a spare room, so off i went and moved all the furniture out and my bears in. No one is allowed in there, people just have to look thru the doors :-) i get very ancious if people touch them just ask Chris she will tell you im completly mad. If i see one i just have to buy them im not allowed to browse thru trademe anymore i found this really big one in Auckland and got one of my regular customers who ive become friends with to bring it down in his truck he thinks i am totally wacked eh was so embarrased he made his girlfriend carry it into the shop lol. well i could go on for ages about me bears but you would get bored so on to the next one

MY WEIGHT LOSS
after losing 44.2 kgs i became a weightwatchers leader.
I wanted to give back what i had recieved as losing weight we all know is relly hard.
I have had quite a few health scares as I got older things started breaking down. the upshot of it was i needed treastment that i wouldnt take as the side effects were weight gain as having lost it i didnt want it back so a fight ensued between the surgeon and me so i WON they wouldnt give me the drugs that would make me fat as long as i had a mirena put in as it would stop all the hemoraging and pain (that would stop me in my tracks when it hit every 2 weeks). I wanted a hystroectomy they said i was too young go figure my baby was 22 do you think i was going to go back there i dont think so. So in the Mirena went the mongrel didnt tell me that the biggest side effect was rapid weight gain did he no he lied so i went to a private surgeon who removed the nasty thing as then i had my hystroectomy Yeah no more periods no more pain best thing i ever did so now my weight is slowing going down and weight watchers is once again helping me so its off to leaders meeting tonight i got my weigh in so i will let you all know how i got on mwan i hope its not a gain on that would suck on me first reporting to you all eh.

i will try to put on my fat photo up but will prob need Chris's help with that one eh warning if you tell anyone you saw it i will have to kill you all its not a good foto haha just joking did i mention that i was quite mad

FIRST POST, WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM CHRIS H

I'M AS MAD AS A HATTER IVE BEEN TOLD.... this is Chris H helping Sandra with her first post...

She's a really neat girl, a wonderful friend and MY Weight Watcher Leader.

She collects BEARS, thousands of them....

She also has her own Bakery, gets up every morning at 4am to bake her bloody pies and open her shop... She works like a Trojan... and still has time to help all us girls with our Weight....

Her brain is not functioning right now... she can't think of ANYTHING to say on her own blog... derrrr! but I am sure she will eventually, so come back later and she might have something to say!

these photos are of some of my bears. top photo is big bear and friends bottom photo is bundy and big bear. bundy i stole from my brother in law in aussie yip i got him thru customs and he was waiting with the airline hostess when we landed in palmy they were scared someone would pinch him.

Bye for now.....nite nite.
