A New car n caboose!!

Hi guys

quite an exciting weekend by my standards! mum bought dad a new caboose (well, we call it a caboose...one of those things i can sit in while dads carrying me around on his back!). it is AWESOME...dad carried me all around the flat while he swept and mopped the floor...its really cool looking down on the world from 6 feet 2 inches high! Yahooy!
i hope that you all got heaps of rain...it poured down here last night, and this morning while we walked to the hospital to get the standard grease and oil change...
we are heading back later this morning to see Dr Karin. mum reckons im looking a bit speckly and might need some more platelets..will wait and see. Ive gone almost a week without a transfusion tho...pretty cool really.
Mum said she saw Jared and Connors mum this morning...they are doing ACE! Connor is day 17 post transplant, and apparently is making ALL his own stuff already...the Dr's also did a special test and it all came back dinky di donor mojo...so they are really really happy. Jared has his new mojo today...so its a big day again for them! been there, done that and NEVER want to do it again...it hurts!
we have also been searching high and low for a new car...and finally found one...dad is as proud as punch and mum reckons it drives like a race car (only says that to razz dad up!)..its a 4WD and will replace the mazda on very long trips to melbourne...cause those people who know us...know that we have had the mazda for YONKS and YONKS and it is just starting to get a few too many km's on the clock to be travelling back and forth to melbourne when we head home...so while the new car is new to us, its a 99 holden rodeo which appears to be in pretty good knick...time will tell. Mum and dad reckons it just needs a new music box, and a couple of other small things and it will be pretty comfy for us to travel to and fro...
anyways...ive been feeling a little out of sorts, a bit grumpy and grizzly, so we will ask Dr Karin what is going on inside (if anything)...i also quickly saw nan and grand dad from bacchus marsh yesterday while dad dropped the car off. They looked good, although grandad had a cold so i had to stay pretty far away from them, coz i dont want to get sick.
it was nice to get out of the house though i must say..
anyways...best fly for now...
keep smiling, lots of hugs and canoodles
