Billy is now 20 weeks old, everything they say about raising a Shiba Inu is not an exaggeration. Luckily he is gorgeous & makes us laugh everyday. 8 weeks old Billy Shiba Inu puppy the day we took him home. 19 weeks old Billy with sand on his nose 20 weeks Snuggles with Billy

Thankfully @centrelink international have escalated the issue with cancelling my pension. They are so nice the international dept, said it shouldn’t have happened and don’t know why it was cancelled, a blind pension shouldn’t be cancelled. All good and now I can have a nap

Sitting at the Honolulu airport heading back to Australia today. We have had a wonderful visit with our daughter who showed us around the island all all the amazing places they have discovered.

Last night in Hawaii and we all went out for dinner at Hard Rock in Waikiki Now I’m laying on the bed trying to get my back to relax while my darling daughter is very neatly (neater than me) packing my suitcase.

One suitcase all ready to go with its new pretty cover. Dresses it up a bit and covers the scratches and cracks on an old suitcase. Just three more to go🧳🧳🧳🧳

My daughter dropped math in yr11 and has gone on to become a qualified hairdresser, cabin crew for airline and now she has found her vocation as a registered nurse. Being allowed to grow and mature and choose your path rather than feel like a constant failure is very important

Fortunately for me my doctor was also my mums doctor, he knew her well outside of work as well and has been through her illnesses and cancer with us. He is also my husbands doctor.

Happy New Year from Hawaii❤️ Never seen anything like the fireworks here last night. This started before 6pm and really went off at midnight, was still going past 1.30am #hawaii #NYE

New Years Eve in Hawaii and the last sunset for 2022. People are setting off fireworks already and I’ve been told it really gets mental at midnight and it’s a fireworks onslaught. So I’ll try and get some video. #Hawaii #hawaisunset #NYE

Living in Western Australia we were amongst the first places to welcome the new year. This year being in Hawaii we are amongst the last places to welcome the new year🥳 18 hours behind Perth. To all my friends in the “future” have a wonderful New Year’s Eve and a Happy New Year

Let’s go baby I starting to think that my kids will not get an inheritance, I’m want to fly business class everytime I travel. The staff on both of our flights and at the airports have been very helpful and made this journey very comfortable #qantas

Goodbye Perth. Hello Business class baby. Now let’s see if the plane wifi will upload this video.

Good Morning to you all on the lovely day. Well here we are at long last and I can’t believe today has finally arrived. We on our way to the airport and eventually Hawaii and in about 18 hours we see our darling daughter. 🛫🌴🍹🎄🐕

I just got confirmation that I can use my Acrod permit in Hawaii. 🎉🚗👩‍🦯

New nails and sparkly toes nails all done. 💅Now I’m ready to go in holiday 🛫

I brought it out earlier today

I think one of the best things we have done in WA is to free tampons & pads in secondary school. We need to end period poverty and give these young women the respect they deserve

Aussie treats for my daughter all fitted in the suitcase 🎉🥳 If you can think of any others I can take to here that she can’t get in the US please do. I’ll get some lamingtons and freeze them just before we go.

ADHD means you organised and bought all your clothes for you holiday 6 weeks ago, but they are still all over the table and not in the suitcase until 2 days before you go away. 🛫🧳

I am reluctant to leave that little blue bird completely. It’s been a part of my life since 2007 and I’ve always liked it the best of all SM 🧵1/7
