G'day, folks.
We're still getting odd weather. It was cool and overcast today, not the best day for the nearby village art fair. We got woken by the phone - mother in law was in hospital, she had food poisoning through the night and very sensibly rang the ambulance. Do husband set off to see what was up and left me to get difficult child 3 working on his homework and then to go visit the fair on our own.
We parked at therapist's house, she wasn't going but pointed out the way to walk through the bush. difficult child 3 was getting anxious tat we wouldn't find our way safely, but we did it. It was a lovely day, there wasn't as much art as usual but what there was was really good. The art exhibition in the bay - I waited until the tide was easing out, but in plenty of time to see much of the sculptures floating.
One clever sculpture was made of plastic cola bottles half-filled with sand and lightly gold-sprayed, all arranged in the shape of a giant dollar sign. Will it float or sink?
I bought some CDs there of a local opera singer, I just downloaded them to my iPod because that is where we listen to all our music at the moment. I just listened to them - she is good! I think difficult child 3 will enjoy them too. difficult child 3 took photos of everything, including of every art exhibit. He walked out into the bay with his ugg boots on, I think it will be summer before they're dry and he's going to have a salt high-water mark on his boots.I really don't know why he didn't take them off - some kids!
We got back home after husband, who had been ringing me from the hospital to keep me updated. difficult child 3 did more work on his essay and I was so tired I fell asleep. Right now it's dinner time and because it's just three of us I'm grilling sausages for difficult child 3 and I'm going to re-heat some beef korma for me and husband. difficult child 1 is at church after helping girlfriend move more of her stuff into their flat today. I'm hoping he comes straight home after church, we need to get his car down to the garage so they can work on it tomorrow.
Tomorrow is a busy day for us, with difficult child 3 really having to work hard to catch up on his schoolwork. I have to organise difficult child 1's car, book mine in for service as well, as well as probably fetch mother in law from the hospital if she's finally over the food poisoning.
Enjoy your Sunday, everyone.
