HEy guy's well here is the run down on my trip sorry it a bit long.
We left on Thursaday had a great trip down boy's slept the whole way. Did some visiting it was so nice to see the kid's I use to look after man how fast time fly's. Then we went back to my friend's house alan would not sleep so we had to share a single bed the whole time we were away. On Friday we went for a wonder around town tyhen headed off to my friend's Mum so much for the fine weather it rained that day and did not really stop till yesterday the day I came home. On Sat we went to Oh baby meet up it was great. Then my very wonderful friend decided to take me soppping in tawa at Dressmart it was so cool ran into a old teacher of our;s was nice ot show the boy's off. Went and done some last minute shopping as we were late gettign down got some lovely cloth's from Max. Then we made our way back home. Alan was sick on thid trip poor little man I must have been a sight I got him out of the car then then proceded to run up the rad to the service station it was raining Alan was in a nappy and T shirt me with no shoes on. (did not want to put him back in hte car till we had cleaned up) It only get's worse form here. Finally got home and went to bed. On Sunday I decided to go to church to meet up with some people was having a great time went to get Mikey a bottle and waht do you know I forgot it so I had to get my friend to pick me up. Then we headed over to her Mum's place where we diyed my hair. Was not quite the colour I was after. Anyway off to my friend's house to find out a little boy I had looked after off and on scince he was 4 (now 10) has been really sick and had major heart surgery He has down's as well. He is doing better, but still rather unwell at home tho. When we got home my friend asked me about some money ------------- Deborah Mum to:

That was surpose to be in her bag it was $80 I instanly remembered where I had left it on the counter at Max all the way back in Tawa it was too late to ring so I rang first thing the next morning and they told me I would have to ring back on Tuesday as the manager was not it till then. I was gutted the money was for my friend for petrol ect for having us stay. She was really good about it told me not to worry. So we packed the car and headed over to Bull's where Pete was coming to pick me up. Had a nice time with Grandparednt's. Then we said good bye my friend nad waited till Pete arrived. I then got a phone call from my firnd she sounded upset,but asked to talk ot another adult in the hosue so I handed the phone to Granddad who sounded worried. I then went out to play with Alan and Grandad came out to tell me my Friend had been in an accident she was fine and no one else was involved, but she knew I would freak out. Her car is totally munted turn's out it was the passanger side that got most of the impact. Anyway I was totally freaked out kinda blaming myself also going oh my gosh I nearlly lost me best firend and oh oww we could have been in that car. I cried the whole trip home. Anyway she reassured me that everyting was fine. Back on to the money I was so determinded to get it back cause not my frien needed it more then ever. So I rang Max today and got the Manager who was very rude and told me under no circumstance was the money let there and then she hung up did not take my detail's or anything. I was so sure I hads left it there and really annoyed with the way I was treadted so decided to ring the manager of the complex explained my situation he said her would look into it. He rang me back about an hour later and said he had had a chat to her and was sure she was telling the truth and that the money was gone. He was very good about the whole thing and said if it did turn up he would give me a call. I was gutted I really wanted to be able to get that money back for my friend. Anyway again about an hour later she ahd been out doing the babking when the teller informed her she had counted wrong and was up yep you guessed it $80. So Ya I will be getting a cheque in the mail over the next fre day';s I am also hoping for an offical apology for the way I was treated my the Manager of Max. Had I taken her word for it and not rung the manager of the complex I would have never got it back cause she had no way of contacting me I am still pissed about the whole thing. Any that was my holiday it was good,but oh my talk about stress. Sorry this is so long I needed to get it all off my chest. ------------- Deborah Mum to:

That is good news about the $80! Sounds like poor Alan was tuckered out, is he okay now? And as for the weather.... it still hasn't really improved over here. -------------  |
