Still Ho'ing at Green Hills!

What have I started...I will now never hear the end of these ho'ing jokes...must admit,I fell right into this one!
Yes...am still ho'ing my arse off ( ha ) - but the hard ho'ing is over for now.

No more great lumps of heavy books to heave, just sorting and tidying as the day progresses.
Things are slow - I dont think people in Maitland have all that much money after seeing their houses float away a week ago.
The Shopping Centre is very quiet.

The traffic to and from Maitland is horrendous - worse in the morning, especially coming into Newcastle. The line up of cars is sooo long.

I have heard stories of people watching their washing machines and fridges float out the door and down the street - even some guy who watched his caravan disappear and end up two streets away in somebody elses back yard.

Boy, this rain really screwed some people over very badly.
I need to be greatful.

By the way, I won $10 in Powerball last week - WOW, see "Lucky" is already paying off (double ha!).What did I do with the money?
I purchased another ticket of course!

Thanks for your comment regarding my "sex education" talk. I am thinking of making it into a book. Do you think other mothers of frazzled teenagers will buy it?! Love your blog by the way...

I wonder what Hungry Jack is hungry for?

Maybe we shouldn't go there..... (then again, we've been just about everywhere else!)

Oh that is good, maybe we should all put stories in, our own little labourstoriesfromhell booklet. Complete with pictures. Now that would be a best-seller...Although we may get in trouble from the government as the birth rate would drop dramatically!
