A Carer's Break Away!



A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to participate with other Carers a trip to the 
Snowy Mountains of New South Wales 
A pic of sunset at arrival


DS trying out a tandem bicycle he has purchased to take JoJo for rides with Mr Armchair assisting


The welcoming fireside at our venue Rydges Snowy Mountains


A cushion I purchased........as if I need a new cushion but this was TOO hard to resist

The Sun coming up over my view at Lake Jindabyne




On the last evening there was a Masquerade Ball and I wore an authentic mask and cape purchased in Venice by DS


The Menu for Dinner but of course I had the gluten free version


A most interesting dessert

The next morning we were in for a treat
I knew we were going to Thredbo but I didn't know this included going on the chair lift
A W E S O M E

Now back to the business of caring and working out this new NDIS scheme

Welcome To My World

Hello, my name is Dzintra Ingrid ... have been known as Ingrid and since our Sea Change I have started to use Dzintra ... pronounced without the D ... (but still known as Ingrid, I know, it's confusing ...)

Welcome to my world ... a journal of our Sea Change ... Mum to three wonderful children ... bringing up a daughter with a disability and seeing life through her eyes ... being a new Nanna ... photos ... inspiring quotes ... taking on a cookery course ... the odd recipe ... and trying to get some stitching done amongst all this ...
