Cass- that's awesome you have a trashy-read swap partner... of course in a few more years you'll have THREE of them. Trust me, mums of daughters, you will be diving into each others' bookshelves and even might find one day that you have been guilty of buying your DD a book for Christmas that secretly you are planning to read, come Boxing Day. (haha, I'm not admitting that I've done that, of course...)
Arte & Cass, I sooo agree that once you've been mobile & haven't had that support base on-tap 24/7 that it becomes sort of a strength in that you no longer depend on having that when you're making decisions. I know people who are paralysed by the thought of moving even 10 minutes away from where their parents have always lived LOL. But like you, Cass, I would like some geographic stability.
I read The Hunger Games during my reading month. It was good, but you can breeze through a book in an afternoon if you get a clear run. Apart from that I just read the first trilogy and quadrilogy of the Terry Brooks Shannara series.
I have a tooth ache. I suspect it is going to cost a lot to fix since it is in a tooth that has already had a root canal. I am kicking myself for not getting the filling fixed when it first broke, now it is infected. Hoping I can get a dentist appointment tomorrow in the city. The dentist in town only works three days, and she is a friend and I would rather not have her looking in my mouth itms.
Arte - OMG, I can't imagine how much that would cost. I have too many other issues with our place anyway to spend that much money. There was a place in Canberra built a couple of years ago that could rotate with the sun.
It was the old days, I still remember it but I must have been less than 5 so it would have been over 25 years ago!! It was a squareish house on piles, so it wouldn't have been too much to shift it I guess.
Last day of holidays tomorrow. Bit sad really since W is the most happy and relaxed I have seen him in…ever. He is being so well behaved and nice. Today he even made a treasure hunt with clues spread around everywhere for us all to follow I just found out yesterday that he is going to spend all day Tuesdays skiing for the whole term!
