[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 243887, member: 1991"] G'day, folk. Linda, I'm glad kt's back at school. And it's good to hear form wm staying in touch. Enjoy your painting, it's respite from the burden of paperwork. Sharon/LDM, you need to get some rest. Your break time should be used - for a break! I like your beach bum, but he's nnot too aplicable here, it's grey and overcast here, temperatures are low for summer. Enjoy your swim. It's been a day of rest for me. I had a few tasks I tried to do, got most of the way there with them but otherwise, just took things quietly. It was a big day out yesterday and I have to go out tomorrow, to see the specialist and then the GP. husband is getting a bit jingoistic in the last few days, the patriotism surging as a result of the country pulling together over the various natural disasters. It's how he has to cope, to know that in the event of a crisis, people in this country will make you proud with how we support one another.
