A snapshot into the lives of Mary and Alan

End of a project


Well - here are 4 of my research team heading down the drive this morning after 2 weeks of coming each day for BodyTalk!

There were 5 boys altogether - one fell at the first fence as mum had other priorities come her way - and they have all shown improvement since we started. Behaviour, appetite and calmness have all improved. Am now hoping the mums will go and do basic training so they can continue with what we have started. They all seem quite keen!

Alan has had to be Mr Mop this morning as the first load of laundry I put on dumped its water load all over the floor! Not so drastic as that area of the garage was in need of a bit of a clean anyway - but perhaps NOT with the rest of the laundry lying on the floor! - I think I would have used some floor cloths - but at least it got done!

I have nothing else on the agenda apart from some hours to dedicate to my garden and, as the sun is shining, I am off!

Hope someone out there is reading this - other than me!!

Love to all

Going to be wasting more time..................


Well - I like the look of the first posting so much I thought I would add a few more pictures and words.

The first photo was of us on a climb into the Kaimais - a local range of hills! It was a 4+ hour adventure that took us almost to the top of the range and we could look east out over the Taranaki plain - this is the view!

Stunning or what?

We had to ford streams, clamber up steep steps and negotiate slippery wet clay slopes - What brave adventurers!

Starting out.....

Welcome!

I have decided that as I no longer seem to have time to write so many individual emails that this would be a good way of sending our news to anyone who wanted to look at it!

I started a couple of blogs last year - but never followed through - so thought I would try again and see where it leads me to!

I will try and add more news as the week goes by and will welcome your comments!
