Just like my beloved Larry, Curly & Moe, I'm a bit all over the place at the moment, so will say my goodbyes until the end of next week. I'm off to Melbourne on Sunday morning for our annual Sales & Kick-Off Meeting & as usual, have left the preparation of all my financial & scientific presentations to the very last minute. So I'm in deep do-do big time. It looks like another huge Meeting, although I always want these things to be over with before they've begun. But I'm looking forward to seeing all my lovely interstate work colleagues for a really good late-night goss & whinge session in the Hotel bar!
We also have Son #5's birthday to celebrate on Saturday. Our baby will be 27 & if you missed his birthday pics from last year, do take a look here, they're ever so cute. I'm hoping to see the Melbourne sons for a quick Mother/Sons bonding session prior to the work meetings commencing on Sunday night. I hope if they are reading this post, they have remembered & are rescheduling their hectic social diaries. I am preparing an Agenda boys, so be prepared to answer your Mother's probing questions in a full & frank manner! MOTH's counting the seconds until I go, he's been surreptitiously digging for the date for months. When I finally confirmed them, he really struggled to hide his excitement, the high leap in the air & loud whoop of joy were a slight giveaway! See you all when I return, I promise to write a suitably 'interesting' report.

Hi Millie,
ReplyDeleteI am going to miss calling in and reading your posts everyday. Life does get very hectic, I couldn't agree more. Enjoy your time in Melbourne, be safe and will look forward to seeing you back here soon.

have fun with the sons, millie! and safe travels. pam
ReplyDeleteSon #5 was and is a cutie. A mother never tires of pictures of her children. They are a way of looking back to recall all that was wonderful about being a Mom/Mum.
ReplyDeleteWill catch up with you when you return home, in the mean time make the most of your time in Melbourne.
Hi Millie,
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time away in Melbourne, with your Sons and your busy work schedule.
I hope that you will be able to get in a little shopping, maybe buy the new wardrobe for the footy game.
Take care and have a safe trip
Hugs
Carolyn

MOTH is making me nervous - I'm getting the feeling not much progress is going to be made in the BFH! Enjoy your week. Leigh
ReplyDeleteHi Ms. Millie,
ReplyDeleteYou will be missed. And let's keep the contest a secret as far as dear MOTH is concerned. But I would be thrilled if you decide YOU want to join in and dabble... I think in the future I will be opening the floor to serious dabblers.
Have fun in Melbourne with the sons!!!Enjoy your time!!!!
ReplyDeleteBig hugs
I need to take Mum lessons from you so I can be sure to receive upright and frank answers from my children!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time kicking up your heels in Melbourne (after the hard work is done). I'm sure MOTH was only trying to make you feel comfortable about leaving him alone with his fat free meals...
xx
MOTH has back to back footy games ready to watch? No, surely upon your return the BFH will be complete. This is the only reason for his excitement I'm sure. Have a great week Millie. xx
ReplyDeletesounds like you work well under pressure!
ReplyDeletei hate goodbyes, even virtually...you will be missed for sure, but have a great time and sure come back with more stories and pictures. thanks so much for stopping by and do take care...maryann
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about your brain jumping around in different directions - sums me up pretty well at the moment too! Have a safe trip :)
ReplyDeleteMillie - at a time like this & your behind on your preps, all's I can say is 'Gods speed'. Before you know it you be having that goss & a whinge (not sure what that is but I'm in!)and a hoot & a holler in that hotel bar!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday #27 to your dear son. He's a handsome lad. I have a single daughter if he likes women shy of 3 years older? You are a very blessed mother. Enjoy seeing your brood and I can only imagine how happy they will be to see you too? Maybe MOTH will be guest blogging while your away?!!
All the success and best wishes to you Millie xxoo deb
I would be your wife-sister in a heart beat if it meant that we could share that Sexy slice of man cake. Have a great trip. Heidi
ReplyDeleteWe will miss you, have a fabulous time.
