A Chance to Relax

Before I start this Blog entry... my question to all of you... did any of you do a 'cleanse' of your phones? I would be interested to know if anyone was game enough to 'let go' of some of the junk on their phones or at least had a look and perhaps be a little surprised as to how much they really don't need or use on their phones...

As for my new mobile, I'm still trying to figure it out, I have been sent a picture that I need to transfer to my computer but as yet haven't figured out how to do it... Otherwise I'm getting the hang of its quirks! I am having fun with connecting the people contacting me with their texts. At least I have not yet been stumped by one and had to ask who it is :-) I'm sure the moment shall come.

Here's a picture that shows you all where I have been for a couple of days this week...

I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to go on a Carers Retreat for few days on the coast. I was able to have my first two nights of uninterrupted sleep in three years which of course was nice :-) I had the privilege of spending time with a group of other people who dedicate their lives to the care of their loved ones and we all had a chance to share our stories, have a laugh or two and perhaps eat a little too much food!

The worst part of it all was the fact that I had relaxed just enough to let my cold set in that has been simmering for the past couple of weeks :-( So we had one full day at the coast doing fun activities, I would have loved to have one more day there to fully unwind and relax and perhaps it would have given me a chance to get over this cold just a little more before coming home to get back into the routine of being waken many times during the night be my Cheeky Boy. Anyhow, such is life!

Here's another picture I took and I thought you may all like to have a look at, it's of a kangaroo who had definitely got the concept of relaxing fully figured out :-)

It's a hard life for some by the beach!

My chance to go to this beautiful location was due to the wonderful staff of Carers ACT and their generous benefactors.
