June 4th 2012 Getting Away

Last Monday the family went to the Murray to our caravan for a bit of a break from the dreary Melbourne weather. As much as its cold on the Murray, the days are so much better and normally filled with sunshine. We went over to Echuca on Tuesday to catch up with some friends, have lunch and enjoy a change of scenery. Wednesday and Thursday were spent doing some cleaning and a few repairs or general maintenance then Friday the Melbourne lot starting rolling in for some very entertaining times over the weekend. Sunday was clean up day, pack up day and drive home. I stayed, as the plumber (who was coming last Thursday/Friday was apparently coming Monday) so armed with not a lot and no car i bid my family farewell and prepared for my first night EVER alone in my caravan. I must admit, it took a while to get used to, but i survived and i am very proud of myself for that. its amazing how you can fill your day in. I have several books here that i want to read, but i just havent had the time. Its Tuesday morning, I'm still here alone and loving it. Its so peaceful, i think i just needed to recharge my batteries. I miss my family specially my grandchildren who keep me on my toes,

Who wouldnt miss this little cheeky face?

Heath and Ayden so intently watching TV, they didnt even notice me trying to take photos.
