'Kalanchoe thyrsiflora flowers'

Or more commonly known as Flapjack Cactus. These are in full bloom in the back garden at the moment, and I felt like adding a bit of colour to the day.

Had a shocking nights sleep last night, which wasn't helped the having both kids in bed with me from around 3am this morning. Getting kicked and hit from both sides didn't help me sleep much from then onwards. MsMun had already had to go and jump into Bella's bed at some point during the night as usual. I needed a big sleep in this morning and stayed in bed until 9am. Very unusual for me, but my body needed it.

Had a day lazing around home, listening to some new music by Karl S. Williams called 'Heartland' which I'm loving and also the new album from Diesel called 'Let It Fly'. Dylan and I stayed home while MsMun and Bella went to the library for a couple of hours to browse and borrow some books, we kicked the footy and watched the delayed Richmond v's Carlton game on TV.

Feeling like my throat has started to settle down a bit tonight and finally the headache has eased. Hoping to be okay by tomorrow so that I can build a ladder and a rail for the bunk bed in Bella's room. That way Dylan can sleep on the top bunk whenever he feels like it, or they have friends over to stay the night.

Another good win to the Hawks again last night over Collingwood. The boys looked like they were back in top shape just in time for the finals in a few weeks time.
