Nice day out

Tuesday I met with Janet in town.  Left the car in the school carpark,  which took the pressure off trying to find a car park at the train station.  It is only a ten minute walk from the school to the station.

 Looking one way in an arcade near the station in the city.  (Melbourne)














  Love the roof.  Looking one way, then the other,
Then looking back from the street.  Should have taken a shot looking up.

We did some shopping and had morning tea and then lunch, but nothing interesting.  Also too busy talking :)
to remember to take photos.  Caught the train back in time to pick Jay up from school.  The day was good, both the company and the weather.  Did get a blister on my toe from wearing shoes I hadn't worn for a while.

Took Jay to his boys club, then came home and had a quick tea, and then went to the Annual General Meeting for the EastWest Club.  Margaret, the singing teacher, looked after Jay for me.  Home by 9.45pm

Did a couple of massages on Wednesday morning, then over to the badminton stadium to see some friends and then we went for coffee (or hot chocolate for me) and sandwiches.  Jay went to his dad's for tea.  Usually goes Thursday, but change of plans this week.

Thursday quickly went to re-enrol for U3A for next year, then to the library to pick up some books I had ordered in.  Jayden was home because he had head lice.  So had to treat him and myself, and strip the beds.

Friday, he still had lice to another treatment, but this time took him to school after the treatment.  Strip beds again, and waited for a friend who was supposed to take me out for lunch Wednesday and had mixed up her days, so arranged to Friday, and again mixed up the days.  Really worried about her.  She is stressed about her ex-husband, he is causing problems.

Took Jay to his dad's for the weekend, and came home to meet Ethan who stayed the night. He is such a darling boy.  Had such a lovely smile and is so easy to entertain.  Great imagination.

They all came over today as it was election day for our state Parliament. That was after lunch.  As I have the family coming for Christmas next week, I did a bit of cleaning up.  Been raining very hard for the last two days, which has it made hard with all the bed linen to do.

Have just been out to tea with Maureen to a Thai restaurant (always spell that wrong, restaurant that is) very tasty.  Now home and struggling with this very very slow computer.  Can't wait for Tuesday when I go back to full speed.

Hope you have a great weekend.  Going to do some Christmas shopping tomorrow.

Wow, how busy you still sound to be! You don't have a day that you don't have anything to do or anywhere to go to. But I guess it's the Christmas time that gives something to do to everybody. :)

I think our Christmas shoppings will start in two weeks - after we get our tax refund. Though it's not a big amount it's better than nothing. I thought I could use my knittings as Xmas presents, too, but I seem to give them away as birthday gifts already before Christmas, so have to figure out something else. But will enjoy that (shopping) eventually, I know!
