[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 81483, member: 1991"] G'day everybody, from Canberra. Linda, it's good that kt is learning to do her own laundry. And the nature diary sounds wonderful. I remember having to re-learn drawing when I had to do my own scientific sketches - no shading permitted for science sketches, very frustrating! Kjs, enjoy the football weekend. We've just had one this weekend - two different codes, the whole country going ape over it all (except us). BBK, in Australia "sexy Rexy" is Rex Mossop, a sports commentator. He's anything but sexy! Master of the oxymoron, though. TM, enjoy the sermon. Sometimes it's good to get a break from an overdose of kids. Fran, it's so hard watching them NOT handle their own finances. We've just handed back difficult child 1's control of his own finances (with trepidation). He still has to get his girlfriend (or us) to co-sign for large withdrawals, but I'm concerned she will be a pushover. He's a lot better than he used to be but still terrible with impulse buys. Jo, enjoy the peace and quiet to come and get the best out of the last of your mother's visit. Use every opportunity - they end all too soon. We've had a quieter day today, helping easy child with her shopping and playing games with her and BF1. We went to a train museum (for husband, especially) and are hoping to get to Questacon tomorrow - it's a sort of hands-on science fun for kids type of thing, difficult child 3 has been remarkably good about not nagging, but he really wants to go and I think we should reward his forbearance. Plus we all love it too. And then - we head back home, where we are dog-sitting for the next week. Should be interesting! Marg [/QUOTE]
