What have you been doing today?

[Halex]

Lr brought back a bag full of clothes he used on respite, the carer said I could do the washing!! So more washing today.

 

[maddy]

isn't that a bit cheeky H?.....so much for the respite 

[jeninwa]

I agree that is so cheeky Hally.

[goldfish]

Hally, that was Somewhat thoughtless !!

[obbie]

you wonder with some people.
Does lr go to respite much Hally, or do you have him full time.

[Halex]

She does the bare minimum which is why she is not doing shared care with us.
Yes Obbie fulltime at the moment.
Just back from Balcatta with my new pc

Cookie, thanks for the photos of the red dirt. Gee I miss that.
I've been slightly jealous of your fishing too, I miss that as well.
And dugong and turtle, you bought back some memories of...ah...dinner. (Don't shoot me - I was living in the Torres Straits at the time) Sorry to say - but they are both yummy 

 

Nikkit I think the red dirt gets into your blood. When we first lived in Broome we were told that and it is so true.
I admit to having eaten Dugong and turtle too. They were prepared for us by an aboriginal friend in Broome. We have 25 knot winds this afternoon so no fishing today in our little boat. 

Hally that is so wrong, why be a carer if you aren't going to care?

[obbie]

Hally to start cooking maybe

[Halex]

I agree cookie, but this lady is the one that gives lr a dry roll with a slice of cheese in & then complains he doesnt eat his lunch. Last week his ea made his lunches, so we bought her chocs & lr wrote  a card.

Just reading instructions of new pc which is unusual for me. Going tomsit down with a cuppa & the manual soon.

Off to lunch later

Kids have been home from school all week. DS caught a bad cold at camp and is really snotty. DD woke up with a sore throat on Sunday and this has developed into a cough as well. I'm valiantly swallowing zinc tablets trying to stop myself from succumbing too. I'm hoping that DS will be ok to send to school tomorrow as he seems much better today. He is watching the first Star Wars movie and I think he wants to watch the second. DD is quietly trying to finish off her project, but I am taking her to the doctor later this afternoon. I haven't been feeling very energetic, but I've managed to finish a letter I need to write for school, have booked a holiday to the Goldcoast in December, and have researched some places for a holiday in July, and I've caught up on the washing and some housework, and made jelly. I may even get the sewing machine out soon.
Hope you like your new pram Astarra - I had a double one when the kids were small and I couldn't have done without it.
Hally, I can't believe that she couldn't e en put a scraping of butter on the roll - how hard could that be? He must be so glad to get back to your attentive care.

[Halex]

Good Day ES.

Yes dry cheese sandwiches a fried spam as a roast, or 5 fish fingers & nothing else, mmm.

To his credit he will eat anything here I serve up

[obbie]

Astarra, I had a double pram I bought second hand for the 2 kids, and sold it 2 years later for the same price.
side by side..

[Cornish Cream]

Took these while I was walking Chance this afternoon

Met some friends on the way

Even though the UK has experienced the coldest spring for fifty years they say it has been the right conditions for a bumper apple crop.By the blossom on this apple tree they are right

Just gorgeous CC. You live in such a lovely area. Great seeing the changing scenery from winter to spring.

Love the new avatar too. I was hoping we would see an update now that Louis is 1.

The scenery here is so beautiful, CC - the photographs are absolutely charming!!
