G'day, everyone.
We finally had rain today. Not a lot, mostly it was sunny with rain materialising over the coast and blowing in. I got caught out in it this afternoon but didn't bother to change. Instead, I just stayed damp (and comfortably cool) until I dried.
I dropped in to visit difficult child 3's friend's family, talked to the mum about whether she's noticed the same odd speech 'interruption' in her son (he's also autistic). Yes, she has. Couldn't talk much though, his dad didn't want it discussed (very much in denial) and I couldn't talk about Concerta with her because her parents were there and don't know the boy is being medicated.
We had enough rain to water the garden. We WERE going to go for a swim, but the rain put me off - I don't mind swimming in the rain, but I DO mind getting wet sand everywhere. The seas are incredibly high at the moment, even dangerously high in our little estuary. We watched a surfing carnival on the news - rather them than me. Professionals only.
Tomorrow is our local artists' open day, I'm also hoping my attempted visitor from last week may visit. Probably not with the high seas, though. They keep stopping the boat, we only get people who are driving in to see us and not by boat at the moment. Last week's broken rudder was repaired, but apparently when they tied the boat up to the wharf this morning it felt like it was trying to pull the wharf to pieces. I've seen it damaged before, in high seas.
Enjoy your Saturday, everyone.
