Howdy all,
Just a quick catch up to let you know whats been happening in the O'Sullivan household.
Well Athalie is doing really well. She is starting to do more around the house and i think it makes her feel a bit more independent. It still tires her out but she feels like she is achieving something by helping out. It's funny how some of us view some jobs as chores, while others view them as little challenges.
Chris has finished his year twelve exams and only has one week of school to go (officially), he is only required to attend a first aid course on Tuesday and graduation on Friday. He has applied to go to Uni next year and has a real interest in Multi Media, specialising in Television and Film editing. It's been a big year for him with his mum being sick and me needing him to help out more and more. It's taken it's toll because he is a bit of a worrier like me, so it didn't surprise me when he got sick half way through the year. But i am proud of him and he has done really well.
Now Caitlyn (KT) is just starting her year eleven exams on Monday and has one week of school and one week of work experience to go. Now KT is in "Love" with Rodney and has him on the brain from sunup to sundown. So it will be interesting to see how her grades are this term. She too has stepped up to help me in the house (not so readily as Chris) but lately she has been wearing Rodney coloured glasses and that is all she is focused on. hope it wears off soon. LOL
Rosie (the baby of the family) is still a little traumatised from Ath being sick, but she seems to be improving slowly. She is still being home schooled and is starting to be integrated back into a school two mornings a week. She really enjoyed it at first but i think the novelty has worn off a bit lately. She also started nippers this year and loves it.
Finally me, myself and I. last weekend was the first weekend i had away for a very long time, now i know this is going to sound selfish but i needed it. I don't know if your are aware or not but i am a Director on the AFL Brisbane Juniors Board of management and last weekend we had our Presidents conference at Marcoola on the Sunshine Coast (my first one). It was so good to be surrounded by people with the common goal of improving Junior football in Brisbane. Oh and to talk on my favourite topic AUSSIE RULES. lol
By all reports Ath and the kids survived the weekend without me. Although i must admit my mobile bill is going to be a little high next month (from ringing every break to make sure everything was going OK). Hey i'm a worrier!
OK have to sign off now
Tim
