lots going on

There has been plenty going on this week.

I am well behind on everything I usually do and am scrabbling to catch up before the school holidays.

I suspect that this time around I will not catch up in time.

On Monday, KT went for her dental visit. She came back with a clean bill of health ... they thought her teeth were pretty clean.

She has been spending a bit more time cleaning them lately and is trying to do it right. I think that the visit from the tooth fairy may have provided added incentive!

They also told her that her new tooth would probably appear sometime during the school holidays!

Uni and I went for a drive to Bribie Island on Monday during the day while KT was at school. We went to part of the beach you can 4WD along.

I was a bit worried at first when the track leading from the car park to the beach was so bumpy and bouncy, but once we got onto the beach itself everything was pretty smooth.

In some parts where the compact sand formed small regular ripple like dunes, it felt a bit like flying in a plane rather than driving.

Yesterday we spent the day preparing to have B&Izzy over for dinner.

I had to purchase a couple of ingredients from the shops for the dinner and buy a new tablecloth to fit our larger dining table.

I managed to do the shopping, get the tablecloth washed, tidy the "visible" parts of the house, vacuum the lounge room and unearth the coffee table and dining table (these are usually buried under a pile of toys, papers, artworks etc).

I was pretty impressed with my efforts. Am very thankful I didn't have to cook as well! Very lucky to have such a talented husband!!!

We had a great night.... and I think we may have found another fan of geomag! I definitely enjoyed the family game of uno stacko on the dinner table. There definitely is a lot to be said for the simple pleasures.

...

I will have to tackle the other "invisible" parts of the house this week and try to get my washing and ironing under control again.

Tomorrow I will do some shopping for clothes ... Uni bought me some stuff for summer but I will need to return it due to size.

I will also need to buy a gift for KTs school friend who will be having her birthday at the beach this Saturday.


I am back using the old post thingy ... can't live without my spellchecker function.
