Dear Stef,
I am very glad you are taking your Aunt's advice and staying away from the terrorists at Time Square, sounds like you will have a wonderful time anyway. The forecast is for -9 and snow so I suggest you take your coat.
C and I are leaving for a small sojourn to Port to stay with the other Aunt. Young Travis has kindly offered to stay here while we are away to keep the cats company.
Will update whilst away so do stay tuned. Photo's posted here http://inthislife1.blogspot.com/

Money
Dear Stef,
There is an old story. A young man (away on holiday suprisingly enough in New York too) wrote to his father (in the old days there was no email only a thing called a Telegram, you were charged for each letter that was typed)
No Mon
No Fun
Your Son
His Father responded
Too bad
My Lad
Your Dad.
Having said that I have deposited money into your account for Christmas. If you need any more ask Sue I'm all out of love and money (well maybe no so much all out of love).

Fruitful
Dear Stef,
The biggest sign yet you are not here.
Today I went to get a Panadol from the medicine box.
AND....
There was some there.
I wanted Panadol and I was able to get immediate gratification. No screaming at you trying to find out where the last box had gone and how could you possible go through so many and why coudn't you replace them or at least tell me you had taken the last one.
I just went to the box and took two.
As I was putting the box back I saw something that made me have to sit down with shock, I just couldn't stop staring.
There was Nurofen there as well.
Finally got the first tomato's off the tree.
This is Harley cracking up after I told him a dog joke.
Tried calling but your clearly in some remote part of New York that doesn't have reception, or there is a blizzard so bad that the phone lines are down or the most likely option - you forgot to charge your phone.

Merry Christmas
Dear Stef,
Merry Christmas my Moo.
I can't believe your not here but the two sms you sent me at 5am helped me to pretend you were.
I hope you kept the tradition going and got a photo on Santa's knee, if you didn't it would be only the 2nd time in 23 years that you didn't (the first was when aged 2 you refused to even go into a store that you knew Santa was in, so getting you to sit on his knee just wasn't going to happen).
I loved last year when we did the midnight shopping run and Santa was still there so (with the help of a bribe of $20) you went and willingly sat on his knee. Santa thought all his Christmas's had come at once and promised you anything you wanted, even a new car.
Yup.
Will call you tomorrow. I hope you have a White Christmas.
Stay away from terrorists.

Mummy there's a Fly in My Soup
Well at least a bug on the wall.
And it was quite a bug.
A HUGE bug.
C was asleep, Harley was out so it was just Rani and I.
She looked at me as if to say, 'well when are you going to get it' and I promptly told her SHE was the cat so get it. NOW.
She looked at it.
And looked at it.
And looked at it some more.
Somebody had to do something and it clearly wasn't going to be Rani so I swatted it and it fell on
the table. Then she pounced.
Then it buzzed.
Once.
She got such a fright that she immediately let go.
And we were back to this.
Hope you are keeping warm.
It was minus 7 this am in New York I was going to sms and tell you but I figured you already knew.

Dear Stef,
We hung your stocking last night, we know your not going to be here but it was weird without it.
Thank you for not sending me any text last night. I actually think all these text are to make me feel like you are still here and waking me up each night as you stumble home and try to find the spare key.
I have had to move the spare key, too many of your friends now know where it is and (Travis?? I suspect) used it to go to the toilet AGAIN!!! Problem was this time he didn't put it back and left it in the door!!!
We found this on the way home on a random stop (one of many).
Stay warm and please stay away from anything more dangerous than Harley.
Love Mum xxxxx
PS Photo's of trip you requested now on other blog let me know if you can't remember address.

SMS
Dear Stef,
Please kindly refrain from sending me text messages in the middle of the night especially when there is reference to alcohol, you being pissed and snow.
I will then promise not to post any more beach photo's.
Maybe lol.

Beach to Snow
While you are freezing your skinny ass off with your two pairs of gloves and HAVING to have your coffee indoors, I had my coffee whilst sitting under the shade of an umbrealla in a dinky little beachside cafe sitting in my shorts and tee. Good coffee, good bacon and egg sandwich, good company and very warm.
PS Whilst I would not have swapped this for the snow decked halls of NY I am mightily tempted to hop on a plane for an adventure of your sorts this week.
*sigh*
The Loch Ness Monster Joins the Nativity Scene
Needles to say this was Charlotte's idea.
Noice photo of Harley as well.
I finally got to the bottom of your washing basket. I would love to know how long you actually spent looking for the box of Cold and Flu tablets that I found at the bottom. I am also intrigued as to how they got there.
Shame you are not here I have learnt how to make Rocky Road.
And it is Good (capital intended).
