14th May 2009 - "Beavers Big Adventure"

It was Thursday 14th May 2009, somewhere between 4.00pm and 5.45pm when my dad had some visitors come over for visit, and someone, I don't know who left the back sliding security door open slightly, it was enough for me to get out and go on a little adventure.

So off I went, underneath the house, its all dirt and cobwebs and bricks, I could hear the birds in the big trees, So I went to explore them, I came to the bottom of the tree and looked up, it was scary so I decided it wasn't worth the stree of climbing up the tree, So I decided to hide underneath the house until the sun went down.

I decided then to go adventuring next door to the neighbours house, I could hear Mum and Dad calling out to me, and my food container being rattled, I tried to Meow, but my meow wasn't loud enough for them to hea me. So then there was no noise at all but the rustling of the trees and it seemed to be getting cooler and darker, I was getting really really scared now.

It must have been 1 1/2 hours around 9.00pm, I crawled around, and I seen a light which I thought was my house, I thought if I can just get on to the verandah and meow Mum and Dad will come to the door and let me in, next thing you know I could smell a dog and that smell was familiar, thats right it was Kosmo and my Mum rattling my food calling out my name,"Beaver, Beaver", so I meowed and meowed and meowed really loud so they could hear me, and surely enough they did.

Kosmo came over and gave me a big lick and a nudge, Mum came running over and picked me up and cuddled me, then they took me home, was I glad to see them, as soon as I seen them I knew everything would be ok, because I was beginning to get really scared, hungry and cold.

After I got home my Mum put my dinner down for me, Yummy I had Whitebait & Chicken Breast, and I tell you I was that hungry I ate the whole lot, I then went and layed in front of the heater and went to sleep till Mum and Dad went to bed, then I went and slept on the end of their bed.

HEY I BET MY MUM WAS VERY UPSET WHEN SHE COULDN'T FIND ME, THE REASON I SAY THIS IS BECAUSE I KNOW HOW MUCH SHE LOVED KOSMO AND I

WEEK 15 -- THE DIET

Well the last 2 weeks have been interesting, week 14 was really well, but extremely busy and stressful at work trying to get things done, but yes we did it as usual.

Week 15, What can I say? The week started out really well with meeting my cousin for the first time on Tuesday, but whilst we were walking down the street I slipped and twisted my ankle, So I haven't been able to walk at all since this happened on Tuesday at lunch time, So no exercising, and not being home at tea time for both Brett and I for the next 3 nights, meant we ate some food that isn't any good for you like McDonalds and Chinese Food, So we have been a little naughty...

And yes today was weigh-in day and I have put on 400grams and Brett has now lost another 300grams, so overall we haven't done to bad I think. I have started to walk 10mins at a time on my walking machine and will increase it back to 30mins as the ankle gets better. So I will leave you with a picture of my Cousins daughter Miss Caitlan.

An Album just for "BEAVER"

I recently started to scrap an album all about BEAVER THE KITTY KAT, and I am finally finished.

The front and back cover of the album is actually fabric I brought from a shop down the road from my place called "Patchwork Coffee On Main", WOW what a great little shop, you can do classes there for quilting etc. The fabric I purchased is just beautiful and as you can see by the photos has just cats on it.

All of the papers used in this album were given to me for my birthday in kit form, and I have purchased all the embelishments throughout the last couple of months to use in it. The photos are random photos taken of Beaver during the last 12 months. I am very happy with the way this has turned out. I look forward to all your comments. The photos I have taken are of some of the pages in this little album.

FIND MY FAMILY -- I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE "PATRICIA ANN SCREEN"

Hello everyone

I would like to introduce to you Patricia Ann Screen, she is 26yrs old, has a partner called Darren and a beautiful 3 yr old daughter called Caitlan, she lives in lovely sunny Adelaide in South Australia. and has come all the way to Newcastle to meet up with some family members that she has never met before.

She is my cousin, the daughter of my Uncle that I have recently met with after all these years...And boy oh boy doesn't she look like her dad...

She came to my work on Tuesday and we had lunch together and this was the first time I had ever ever met her. Today being Friday we met up again and spent some more time with each other, I also took her to meet some other family members whom she had never met before. Our other cousin Margaret who lives on the Gold Coast in Queensland flew down to see her as well, they haven't seen each other in 16yrs. Take a look at some of the photos that were taken today, one is of her and me together and Caitlan and myself.

Slipping In The Rain

Well how clumsy must I be, on Tuesday at lunchtime I was walking down the street from work to grab some lunch when I slipped on one of those Telstra grids on the footpath, I have substained an ankle injury, So I haven't been able to use my walking machine, and havent had much sleep of a night as well..I think I faired pretty well unlike my friend Jodi, who came off SOLO during the week and is very very sore and bruised, Hey jodi i think we must be twins LOL as we both have an injury to our ankle.
