[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 397300, member: 1991"] G'day for Monday. Sharon, you had snow - well, it is winter. But here it's supposed to be summer - and it was snowing today on Mt Wellington, a not very high mountain (you would probably call it a hill) outside Hobart, in Tasmania. Snowing in Australia in midsummer! We felt the cold today. After swimming at the beach yesterday, it was deserted today. The bad weather has hit the Sydney to Hobart yacht race, there are boats dropping out due to damage. It's a really tough race. At least there are no fatalities this year. Two blokes overboard last night, but they got picked up quickly. The girls went home today. easy child & SIL1 left first, they had further to go. Then an hour or so later, easy child 2/difficult child 2 and SIL2 left. It's been a busy but wonderful time with the kids staying with mother in law. We had difficult child 1 and daughter in law staying with us, but only for one night and then they went home for a few hours. We've talked about making a trip to easy child & SIL1's place in the next few weeks, with easy child 2/difficult child 2 & SIL2. Tomorrow we will probably go to the mall for supplies and a little post-Christmas sales. husband spent most of today with mother in law, it was expected to be a difficult day for her. I'm still recovering from my bad cold and laryngitis. Spending time with mother in law has not helped my voice - her hearing is not good, plus she's not good at listening anyway, so I end up having to use more voice than I have, to try and make myself understood. She keeps forgetting I have no voice and asks me if I'm upset with her because I'm not talking! She's very anxious to not offend, scared she has. I'm hoping to get some sleep tonight. Enjoy your Monday. Marg [/QUOTE]
