Fingers Crossed!

My boy has been unemployed for awhile - various reasons. BUT last week he started what we hope to be a mechanics apprenticeship. YAHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Week 2 and he got up when the alarm went off. Those who know him will understand that that is a BIG thing. It helps that his workplace is a 5 minute drive away and an 8am start. He is not a morning person. ;-)
Now I need help. Anyone got any great ideas on how to get his uniform clean or more precisely mark free? Those drill navy pants are great at disguising the marks, but his navy/fluro yellow synthetic shirts are dreadful. I don't think he cares and I look on them as a sign of hard work.
We are happy. Let's hope the usual week three hurdle won't be so high this time.
Take care,
Kayly

Birthday Boys

Well these are my birthday boys!
My son J turned 21 yesterday. I really would like to know where those 21 years have gone. I know it's cliche, but it really does seem like only last week I held that long baby in my arms.
Yesterday we took J and 10 of his friends out to lunch. The above photo is one my Mum took last Christmas in my sister's lovely garden.

Hubbie and I would like to wish him all the best for his future, whatever he decides it to be. (We just wish he'd hurry up and think about it.)

This is my Dad. He's 79 today.
Happy Birthday Dad.
