Time flys

I haven't written for over a month (as reminded to me by M) so I thought I'd summarise what's been happening.
Term 3 was huge as sports co-ordinator and involved School Athletics, District Athletics and Regional Athletics Carnivals. Interschool sport also finished with round robins 5 & 6.
Teaching and assessment were crazy, especially my senior PE and senior Health subjects although I was very fortunate to have a competant prac teacher to help with the load. Now I've just got plenty of marking to do these holidays.
The house started (photos to come) with the demolition of the current house, concrete footings, concrete slab, frame in old house and frame in new extension and windows and doors arriving. Hopefully in the next month it will be lock up and I can send J back to work! (However, I have to admit he has been amazing with all that he has been doing for the building of our house, a regular foreman if I do say so myself.)
We celebrated our 2nd year anniversary and spent the weekend at Caloundra and visited Steven Urwin's Australia Zoo. Of course J was in his element, tormenting crocodiles.
I said goodbye to my baby sis (who is 9 years younger but is more worldly than me). She's off to Sydney to become a very successful marketing manager. Fortunately, she's staying with mum's mum so she isn't too lonely.
I'm looking forward to celebrating my brother's wedding to Ash in October and seeing all of mum's extended family. J is also in the bridal party - I just hope he behaves.
Finally with things slowing down slightly, I'm able to catch up with a lot of my friends whom I haven't seen lately. Most of them have kids and I love watching their little ones grow up, cause I know sometime soon that will be me.
Now to some more marking....
