Saturday
I am having a lovely calm day.
I managed to clean the living and kitchen area so the house looks tidy.. NOT!.. down the hall and in the bedrooms are a different story. I have done 5 loads of washing.. I know crazy...
The boys helped this morning.. according to the new strategies I have in place. Scott tidied and vacummned his room and Jack empty all the bins and recycling and tidied his room. They went off to neighbourhood friends, returned to copy files to Ipods, eat Wizard bread (male version of fairy bread), I tried them out on rolling pin rolled flat white bread with cream cheese and ham then rolled into cigars... they loved them... wot the? If I had offered a cream cheese and ham sandwich I can tell you I would not have got such a good reaction.
They now have gone off on their friends family boat - not without me shouting get your sunshirts on, hats, wait I will apply sunscreen, here are bottles of water... don't get sunburnt.. that is how you get Sun Cancer and lastly ... have fun!
During this time we have had 3 tilers here tiling under the deck and Peter had a supplier here to check out the kitchen floor and deliver some goods. I got to talk to kearbear22 before she headed off to a wedding. All the tradesmen have now left and all is quiet. I have had time to telephone notsogreynomad and have a quick chat before she and Dave head off over the Nullabor Plain and have no telephone or internet connection.
I have managed to take some photos of the day and I will post them next. In case this post is getting to long and boring.
