Age pensioner

WELL hello every One!  I guess if I get a blog out every month it won't be too bad. So I had the motor home serviced in Adelaide at Iveco they even  let me have a courtesy car which was great. I  visited with A dele  AND geoff and Adel e's mum , Bernice, so that was good. Went back to Leasing ham with the news that they found an oil leak in the gear box, but couldn't find the earlier problem.so I booked it in again and went and stayed with a dele while it happened. They had it for 3 days waiting for a part, but all under warranty, thank god. Geoff went off to The am worth for a real reunion, so I was able to be a bit useful as company for a dele.  We went off chasing card making stuff, so that was fun, all I have to do now is make Em! Headed off to Lofton and cousin Pauline s.  Genevieve had us on our tiptoes as she had some Labour pains but nothing happened.  I pored over more family tree info, ready for when I can find time to do some research myself. It is so fascinating.
Finally departed for Mildura and points along the Murray river further east. Stopped at Robin vale,  and then contacted Merrilyn at Nagambie and dropped in there for a night, then headed northish towards the nsw coastal areas. Met up with Hazel and Mike at Gearing on for a bead class, then south towards Wallaga Lakes. We were supposed to do 5 days there but that didn't quite work out . Still we had a lovely few days. I went on to a cmca friend for a few nights , and then headed west again towards Yass.  Spent my 65th birthday at the show grounds at Bungendore. Finishing off a couple of beading ufos. This morning came to Yass,  spent several hours at Centre link,  trying to get my age pension sorted, if that's Possible! , Came away with about 50 pages of forms to fill In!  I can see why it's hardly worth the hassle! ,,!.
Anyway Genevieve delivered safely child no 6, a girl, Jamaica Dawn, on October 28th. I pray that's the End!  She is finding out what it's like to have a fifo partner, Dion has gone back already.
Had a lovely photo of aunt Margaret doig who turned 100 last month,came on Facebook page from the dockets.  I wished I could have been there but not to be,more so close to mums 100th. They g are both marvellous. Good health to you all. Love
