Well again I am a bad blogger.
But we have been busy. It's stocktake season right now so by the time we get to sunday I would have done 5 stocktakes and Mike 2. My work is pretty big so we slice it into departments...on sunday it's my departments turn so I've been flat out this week sorting through pens and pencils trying to get ready.
We had an up and down week last week. Mikes dad had a mild heartattack... he's pretty secretive about it but far as we know he is doing ok. Then we had a meeting at the hospital with Mikes new cardiologist. The guy was awesome. Knew what he was talking about and we left really happy. He basically told us that the procedure Mike was to have a year ago is way too risky for number of "events" that he has. He also told us all these risks that the last guy didn't even go near telling us, scary risks and basically for the number of times it happens he was saying "would we do it and something happen and we think - was it worth it for something that happens every 6 months?". So the end of the story is that we are switching meds and seeing if that helps. And we'll just wait and see... the op is an option but one we only wanna go to if we really really have to and that might happen later in life.

Meantime it's definatly heading towards winter. The temp when down this morning and when I left to go to work all 3 cats were on the bed and having no ideas of heading out... tarts.

We had the weekend off and had a double up of events. The Beach Hop was on and as much as Mike wanted to go we also had his best friends 30th birthday party in Palmerston North. You can't turn down a best friend. So we drove the 4 hours to Palmy and hung out with Blair and his fiancee Lynda, caught up with Lloyd for the first time in 2 years and met his bride to be Sarany and spent the night at Blairs mum Lynns place. She moved to Palmy now after Pete passed away I guess Whitianga wasn't the same especailly with the rest of the family far away. Shes a top ladyand it was awesome to see her gorgeous new home.
