Koby @Zac's Party Zac at his party Fergus at Phillip Island
Over a month since I last posted to my blog, the days seem to be flying by. No-one told me that retirement was quite like this.
Where to start with what's been happening to me?
Zac celebrated his 3rd birthday on 23rd February. He had a small party at at a play centre and had lots of fun. He is certainly growing his dad described him as 3 going on 8!! He wants to do all the things that Fergus does and is quite confident of being able to accomplish it all too! He came to my house on Tuesday, has been hanging out to do that for about 10 days. We had lots of fun at the park, on the beach and playing at home. I look after Koby every Wednesday. He is such a happy little boy and so good for his granny trish!! It's school holidays starting today and Fergus is coming over tomorrow for pizza, a sleepover and then we are off to the aquarium on Monday morning. Fergus will be 8 in June and before that Koby will be 1 on 1st May. Fergus is doing really well at school and is now learning to play the guitar...
I am still enjoying my early morning walks. At 7 am it' still dark but that will change when we change the clocks next Sat/Sunday. We are having beautiful weather here in Melbourne. (Not counting the terrible hail storm way back on 6th March!!) If you follow my face book then you may know that I was at Flemington racecourse that particular day! My first visit to Flemington and I was on a winning streak too!
I have seen a few movies, caught up with friends, listened to music and still managed to do some dancing. I love dancing and joined a Zumba class - check out the link...great fun and I can keep fit too. i am beginner but aspiring to reach the level of the lead dancer in the video !!! HA HA
I still have the issue of the neighbour to deal with and it goes to VCAT again on 16th April. Not sure what the outcome will be. I only wish it was over.
Still getting used to retirement and all that it brings!! including reduced income, however the Zumba classes are cheaper for pensioners!! Joking aside I think I am adjusting I miss the brain work and the social aspect of working. I do still get up at the same time every day (5.30) but have more pleasant things to do such as walking followed by coffee and good conversation.
Time to head up to the city for a discussion groups at the VSU.
Til next time.. Happy Easter and watch the chocolate intake
