Hello Family,
How is everyone? Aunty Kell, how are things over there with your family? I have been thinking of you all and keeping you in my prayers. Has the weather warmed up for you all yet? As much as I hate the heat I have to confess, I have quite missed the summer this year. Only because I enjoy having the air-con on and it's only been on 3 times so far. Autumn next week but we don't usually get cool until around the end of April although it may sooner this year. Tony's uncle says the snow in Italy is so deep that many people have not been able to get out of their houses, no power, phone, heating... People with two story homes have been able to climb off their balconies. Incredible.
Well Mum said she would come to live with us but I can't see it happening, any time soon least ways. She procrastinates over everything :o(
Tony is feeling much better these days and so has been able to get up and do more about the place. He has even moved the old gate which used to be out the back up to the front of the driveway, where it will be put up across to the front fence, one day. It will be great when that happens because I will be able to let the kids go and play in the front yard (such as it is). I bought them a basketball hoop for Christmas and Tony is going to mount that on the palm tree in the front yard so that will be nice. Who knows, the cubby house may even get some use. Man, if only I'd had a cubby like that as a kid, I'd never be out of it. My two don't realise how lucky they are...
The new puppy, "Frank"
We have a new puppy, Frank. Don Francescuc (Francescooch) Tony calls him. He's only 4 months old but I'll have to get him under control soon so that he doesn't stay 'silly' all his life.
My old mate Lili from church has just phoned me to ask if I'm able to call round to get some clothes for Giancarlo. The daughter of a friend of hers passes on her boys clothes and Lil' keeps them for me. She really is a blessing as I hardly ever have to buy clothes for Hokey. A mum at school passes on clothes for Angelina which is absolutely fantastic.
Tony is going crook about our school, they always have their hands out for money. It's the governments fault because they don't provide enough funding but every week it's twenty dollars here thirty there, another ten. I paid out 90 yesterday to cover their gymnastics and online reading program mes. Mind you, Tony passed it in to the office but they didn't let the teacher know so Angelina was held back from her lesson yesterday. I am totally pissed off, the program only runs for the term :o/
I have no news so I will sign off and hope you are all well and in good spirits. Take care everyone,
Love Me :o)

Neville Ryan
Hi all,
So sorry to hear about Peter but I am sure the family will have fantastic memories to think back on and so he will always be with you. I know I have some good memories from the short time we had with him when we were visiting Canada a few years ago.
For those of you who might remember Lens cousin Neville (Mandy and Belinda) , he also sadly passed away on Monday 30 January. Nev had Cancer of the Pancreas.
For those of you who didn't know him he was very much part of our and mums family.
Hope there is some cheerful news on here very soon.
