G'day, everyone.
Kjs, stay strong. Sounds like this VP is still trying to bluff you - the silly fool!
BBK, enjoy your day.
Linda, I hope you can still enjoy your weekend as a family. Maybe there are some good family things you can do which you haven't done in ages - watch DVDs while making lots of popcorn, maybe? Or go to a museum? Or a drive in the country to look at the early autumn changes? Or read books to each other? Whatever it is, enjoy it. Sharon, I hope your mother packed her swimsuit. We're getting temperatures like that and hotter, here.
Today was cooler thank goodness, but the high winds and hot weather are back tomorrow. They've caught a couple of kids who lit fires in the Blue Mountains - the little darlings were throwing Molotov cocktails into the dry bushland - and still looking for more for the other fires.
I had to go out this morning for a meeting (three judges of a kids' writing competition, we had to finalise results). It wasn't strenuous, I enjoy the company, we had coffee afterwards - then I came home absolutely exhausted.
husband is home tomorrow, wants to fireproof the house (gutters, sweeping, weeding, raking, repairing, panicking) which we do numerous times over summer. It has to be done (apart from the panicking, that is). I'm hoping to take difficult child 3 back to the beach too. I'd like to light my pizza oven but it's outside and the fire ban is still in place - indefinitely. The fire is laid and ready.
Have a good Thursday, everybody.
