nup. we are selling the house and the following day going for some camping. that's about it. boo hoo. i want to go on a real holiday with like sunshine and stuff.
Selling the house is something a bit exciting, but not really entertaining for a long period of time I guess. I was planning to take the kids to Wellington for a couple of nights via hometown, but it seems city motels are very expensive so it looks like it will just be hometown. Someone at kindy just got back from Fuji and I realised I can't even imagine warm atm lol.
No major school holiday plans here - I guess my kids will have had enough excitement before holidays start! They are doing a few sports days and school hol program and spending time with us and grandparents. Theyll be really sick of each other by the end!
All good here. Celebrating noahs bday tOday as it's a fast day on his bday. Went to the zoo and out for dinner tonight.
Couple more days then we head home.!
it is chaos here as per usual. i am totally over it. we *just* forgot to pick up Miss L from school i had no idea that it was an early pick up today (they send the newsletters to DHs email instead of mine...'cause that's gonna work lol). so luckily he is home today and is literally sprinting down the road to get her. poor thing i feel terrible as there is nothing worse than waiting for a parent that is not showing up (i have BTDT with my own mum more times than i can count).
the inspections are going quite well. i would, of course, prefer loads more people and for those people to start punching eachother up in the hallway during inspections in mad dash to offer more than the other for our Casa del Awesome hahahaha. cannot believe that THIS saturday it goes to auction. someone better bid, and they better bid big hahahahaha. our RE reckons we have it in the bag for at least low 700s...better as at that price in this area that is a bit of a bargain. i would want/expect the mid 700s (just going by what the other places in the street have gone for in the last month).
Can you believe all these big 6 years olds?! amazing man. cannot believe it. i especially have a brain bursting moment when i catch up via FB with my mums group from canberra and see just how big those kids are now. i remember them basically all as newborns (we left the 'bra when miss L was 3 months old). it's mindblowing.
cannot believe that we forgot to pick up Miss L...*goes off in a pile of shame and guilt*
Cass, I also recall a sizeable proportion of my adolescence spent sitting places waiting for mum to pick me up. Back in the days before cell phones, so I couldn't go anywhere in case she arrived while I was gone lol. I *always* had a book with me! I bet teens of today don't have to sit around waiting.
I hope you have a very exciting auction with lots of bidders
How is E going with the seizures now?
I am sick again! W was sick yesterday, the girls have snotty noses. I have dosed up on cold and flu pills in an attempt to make it to quiz night tonight lol.
We had dinner out last night for the end of skiing break up. Several of the people commented to us on how gorgeous W is, a sweetheart, lovely etc. We know he is a neat kid, but it is nice to have other people saying it He is doing so well now.
BTW Cass, I should have said last post, but when kindy finishes early for some reason there are always a heap of parents that forget. We all get into our little routines and anomalies like that just don't sink in. Last early finish I only remembered because I overheard some people talking when I was walking out the door at drop off, and I had to bring my friend's son home with us because she forgot lol. So don't feel bad, it happens to the best of us xx
