Wednesday 4th June 2014


G’day,

Hope you are fit and well!

Big excitement today in our house!

Julie and I have been blessed with a new arrival in the family!
At 1:03 pm today (11 days overdue) Madden Els weighed in at 3.96 kilos.
The judges have overruled protests at the late inclusion in the competition.
He takes up boxing training next week in the heavyweight division!

Teal and Madden are both doing fine. Shianne was so excited at the news her scream was enough to peel paint and Jaylen is very excited about having a baby brother. So of course we hightailed it straight to the hospital for cuddles all round. He’s a joy!

Madden Els and Family

He had some junk in his throat when he was born so apparently he protested long and loud until he cleared it. :-)

By the time we got there he was calm and peaceful. I cuddled and rocked him for half an hour and he fell asleep.

And that striped blanket in the picture? Teal crocheted it! Brilliant job.

Converting PDF Files to Other Formats
 
 
 
 

One of my email buddies writes:
From time to time I have had the need to convert PDF files to other formats and I do not want to buy the full Adobe license since it is not something I do often.

In the past I have used some web sites that provide conversion tools although many have limits. Below is a link with a summary of tools you can use to do conversions. I have not tested them so I do not know how well they work... ...but they are free...

“The Greater Good” has some exciting news - they are launching a series of videos on the vaccine debate that are sure to open hearts and provoke thought. Here’s the first...

Until next time,
dream big dreams,
plan out how to achieve them,
be continually executing your plans,
enlist people to your causes,
travel and/or read widely, preferably both,
all the while observing what you observe
rather than thinking what you are told to think,
think well of your fellow man,
take time to help your fellow man,
he sorely needs it and it will help you too,
eat food that is good for your body,
exercise your body,
take time to destress,
and do the important things
that make a difference -
they are rarely the urgent ones!

Tom
