What a week!!!
Darryl's dental work has been giving him a bit of pain and discomfort.  Hopefully that will all resolve once the permanent bridge is in his mouth.  Fingers crossed anyway.
Neville is still back home and his sleep Apnoea results are in - and he will now be getting a CPAP machine.
My brother Peter came to visit on Saturday afternoon - he is working out at Tamborine on a dozer and hopes to be able to go home to Bundaberg this coming weekend.  It has been great seeing him and having him stay.
There is a write up in the Coles Fresh magazine about the sweet potato grower - Brendon Boon - who just happens to be sister Heather's partner.  And then in Coles is a little poster with his picture on it.  So spreading the word about growing sweet potatoes in Queensland.
Darryl, Peter and I headed out to dinner on Saturday night to celebrate Ben's birthday.  We went to a great little restaurant in Sunnybank called Sunnybank Oriental and serves traditional Chinese .  Not a fancy restaurant but one like you would find in Hong Kong streets.  Peter returned to work this morning - leaving at about 4.30am.
I - unfortunately - have been having a Meniere's episode since Saturday afternoon and it is REALLY frustrating. Tinnitus ++++++ but my hearing is super sensitive :C imbalance ++++++++++ (Darryl says that my 'dance' is more prominent) nausea++++   - so all up I am not feeling top notch!!!  BUT I have had terrible episodes before and gotten through it.  It might be a bl--dy horrid illness and mainly invisible - but it WON'T beat me.
Hoping that you are all well.

time is flying by......

Well we have been home for two weeks and we have been having a busy time with specialist and GP appointments, dentist and eye checks.
We are going out to visit friends who will be camping at Andrew Drynan park on the Lion's Tourist Road, near Rathdowney, this weekend.  We won't be camping as Beckie is having her fund-raiser for her 'Ride to Conquer Cancer 2012' at the Jimboomba Library - and we will be in attendance.
Darryl has had to have a GTT (Glucose Tolerance Test) [a two hour blood test] and his result has come back that he has NIDDM (Non-Insulin Dependant Diabetes Mellitus) and needs to start medication.
a new round of health issues is about to begin.........
We are doing some tidy ups here at the house.  We are painting the front fence, Darryl is going to paint the metal out the front with rust-preventative and we are seriously thinking of pulling up the original carpet upstairs. It is really tatty carpet and puts a dampener on the look of the house.  Ahh well - will see what eventuates.
Young Max is to go into hospital to have his tonsils and Adenoids removed in a couple of weeks so it looks like we will be camped on their front lawn for a couple of nights to look after the kidlets.
We had the van serviced last week and the guys were really pleased with it.  We will get it serviced again in March prior to us heading of to the corner country with Wendy, Ian and Holly for Easter.
We are also planning on meeting up with Grey Nomad friends for a tag-a-long up to Darwin after that.

Buster has settled into being the ALPHA dog here and doesn't seem to be missing Andy.  Andy has settled into life at Jimboomba and the children are really enjoying having him and Bob to look after.

Will Keep you updated.

hmmmm need dental work

Well Darryl and I had our 6 month checkup at the dentist this morning and it seems that my gold crown has got a hole in it...  no wonder the cold drinks have been giving me pain...... :(
I have to have the gold crown removed - tooth checked for decay - remove old amalgam filling and replace and then a new crown put on...  just thinking about have to do the teeth impression is making me gag but will try and be more positive by the time I get to the dentist for it.......
Have to get done asap so that the original tooth does not decay or will need root canal therapy.   YUK.
Other than that all are well.
Spent Sunday with Beckie, Matt, Brad, Gemma and Max.  What a lovely day.  Matt and Beckie were talking about the benefits of living in the suburbs but it turns out he was 'pulling her leg'. :( There is a perfect four bedroom home for sale minutes from the water.......
Ahh well - They will continue to live at Jimboomba.

We are planning our trip to Lithgow in December and then coming home to spend New Year with the family.
Have already started planning some of our travels for 2012,
