So near to Christmas, so much to do!
Well, this week has been eventful. Monday was full with Playgroup (after a quick visit to my horse), then a playdate, followed by accidental amputation of the end of my little dog's tail (she's great now, was a clean cut...caused by the front door and her tendency to sneak out when we're going through it).
Yesterday was the last day of term for Kindergym, so now is the beginning of committment-free Wednesdays till next Feb! After that I went with a Booby Club friend to the Vic Branch of ABA to see the new rooms, which are just so great and welcoming for anyone needing mummy-to-mummy help and company.
Tonight is the last swimming lesson for the year, so I'll go with DP and Oscar to watch that. I haven't been for a playswim in 2 weeks, but that's ok.
Tomorrow is our Booby Club kid's Christmas party, then I'm off to another playdate at a local park (didn't realise Oscar had taken a liking to this child until I went to the park another time and he asked for his little friend, followed by a frown when I said he wasn't there!), then...hopefully...Christmas Carols in Belgrave!
Saturday I'd like to ride my horse again, then Sunday is a toss-up between brigade Christmas BBQ and the local cultural centre's 10 year Anniversary celebrations. As the shine has worn off brigade for me recently, I'm thinking the historical celebrations might be better, especially as there will be lots of indigenous references and inspiration, which is really important to me to impart to Oscar.
Mel - no results yet I think I have to wait till next Friday...seems like forever away! Barbie with US accent...I guess she really is very American!! I must organise a Santa visit at the Belgrave photo shop. Not inclined to do a mall Santa this year.
Ali - great to see you popping in! You'll be all partied out by Christmas Eve...!
My laptop is about to overheat, so I'll kill some more time by reading 'Melbourne Child'! I've really got nothing to do here at uni now that my assessments are in, but I need to bring Oscar in for childcare, and to integrate him into the kinder room so that when he starts again next year, it's not a strange experience for him. Only till end next week, then he's ALL mine!! He was giving me the most delicious smackers yesterday, holding my face in his little hands, making kissy sounds and kissing my eyes, nose, cheeks, mouth and shoulders...more please
Ok, computer is hot, jeans are hot...gonna read...
Tali - how did the carols go? I really loved your thread about age gaps
