Merry Xmas

So Xmas day we spent at the in laws.We had a big lunch opened some presents and the kids got to run around and had a swim.

Needless to say by the evening they were all waisted.(and the cow too)
Anika fell asleep on the way home and we just put her to bed as she was.

Got some cool Xmas pressies and got to spend it with the one's I love.Hope you all got to do the same.

I hope you all had a moovelous Xmas

Tearing open some presents


We spend old Xmas eve at home.I had my brother and sister with their partners over for a braai.We played some games and the kids opened some of their presents.

When we grew up we normlaly stayed up the eve before Xmas and then opened presents.My husband however grew up where thy only put up the tree on old Xmas eve and open presents on Xmas day only.

So we have learned to compromise.

We got the kids a trampoline and they enjoy it tremendously.Here is some pics of the kids and our Xmas.

Grazing at home

I have been super busy at home.Being on leave doesn't mean sun and fun, it means cleaning.My nanny looks after my twin boys and washes ext.So normally I do the cleaning.

It started with scrubbing my tile floors through out the house.I then washed my bedroom walls and the ugly yellow paint that was there before reared its head.So I painted my room.

This morning I decided to wash the carpets.In between I still entertained the in laws and some friends.I still need to do some Christmas shopping.AAAGGGGGGG..........

I got my car

I got my car Friday afternoon only and did not spend a cent.They struggled to get the part from Fiat SA and after I complained on Thursday the part was delivered.Now I have had a run in with them before and when I phoned Fiat SA to lodge the complaint they basically just confirmed my details.This was so funny.

I went to lunch with my sister and we had a blast.On Saturday we had a 40th birthday party.We spent a good time of the evening in a heated pool.Joy since it was raining the whole of Saturday.We ended up going home on Sunday morning at 3am.

My family came over for brunch on Sunday.Fairly boring weekend.

Ok, so I am working on the MEME Angel send me.I know its taking long but have to think carefully about this one.In the mean time here is the Music list one she e-mailed me.

My car broke

It has been a very shitty week.On Friday after returning from lunch my car broke.
Yes,it went for it's service last week and now the clutch went.Imfricken possible as the clutch was replaced 20 000km ago.

I was furious.I then had to make my own arrangements to get it to the dealer.Luckily I have roadside assistance and the insurance company towed the car to the dealer.It is now Tuesday and apparently it is the Master cylinder than went.I blew a fuse and politely told them that it was done 20 000km back and I will not accept this.They ordered the part yesterday and will advise me.They told me that they will do it under the warranty policy as it seems to be a faulty part.

Faulty part my big fat cow's ass.When they serviced the car last week they did the cam belt and I smell a rat.They must have stuffed up something as they were quick to advise me they will pay it.

Lets see if I get a phone call tomorrow to fetch the car?

War with the neighbours,Round number 2

Ok, so my Rummstein didn't work.They just kept going.
Unfortunately our bylaws state that if it is between 10am and before 10pm there is nothing I can do.Well they don't know the Cow.

I phoned the metro police after my hubbie politely asked them to turn it down and they refused.I asked the Metro Police to please see if they can not do anything about this as it happens everyday and I have small kids.They were there in 10minutes.Even the cop said it's really loud and went next door to turn it down.Yeah,peace FOR 30MINUTES.

I packed up the kids,the husband and everything we needed and headed of to a friends house.Bliss, we only got home at 2:30am Sunday.We spend a quiet day as the neighbours didn't even make a noise.

Last nigh we were already in bed and one of the Twins is sick.I had him at the doctor yesterday and it's his ears and tonsils.The neighbours came in with a huge racket.There must have been about 5 cars that pulled in and they were going at it.So I got up as they have now made such a noise, that my sick child was awake.I went out on my patio and told them to please be quiet.I got a very rude response and told them I will then phone the Metro police again and this time they won't be so lucky as it is after 10pm.

What am I going to do with these people.I wish my starsign was Scorpio?Unfortunately I am on the cusp between Libra and Virgo.What to do,what to do?

How Crop circles came about

War with the neighbors

So I wake up this morning after having some friends over last night.PS: And a bottle of red wine, and my neighbors are pumping music.But they range between the age of 21 and 25 and are the rave types.Clearly they have not seen the cow in action.So I hook up my hi-fi with the speakers pointing outside.

I am now pumping Rammstein, Korn and soon to follow Marlyn.Yeeaaahh.
