[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 109072, member: 1991"] G'day, people. Linda, I'm glad the alarm clock is off until next year. You need a break. Sharon I, it's funny when our kids get the giggles. difficult child 3's laugh is so infectious; so if difficult child 1's. Watching them 'get' a joke is 90% of the fun of telling it. Sharon II, good luck with your cleaning day. And it's lovely for easy child to do the grocery shopping for you, that was lovely. Which reminds me, I have to do another grocrey shop before Christmas, I think... Last day of the school year for us today. difficult child 3 didn't take much persuading to get on with schoolwork - I was amazed. I didn't make him do bookwork, though, I let him use the computer programs and the Mathletics website instead. Then in the early afternoon when we drove difficult child 1 to the ferry so he could go see girlfriend, difficult child 3 & I went on to go to the beach for a swim. The water was lovely, not too rough either. But difficult child 3 worries about skin cancer (thanks to a barrage of 'heavy' advertising that now ironically has health authorities concerned that Aussie kids are missing out on Vitamin D!) So we were only at the beach for an hour. His shoulders are a little pink tonight, but it's the first decent sun he's had in months, he looks pasty, thin and ill and NEEDS a little sun. I made a large lasagne for tea tonight and then we took difficult child 3 round the village looking at Christmas lights. We're going to do it again maybe tomorrow, so difficult child 3 can take better photos of the pretty lights. After a clear, still sunny day, there is a severe weather warning out tonight - a storm and gale warning. I've been watching the online radar display, at first it looked like the heavy weather, coming across inland (unusual) wasn't getting over the Blue Mountains, but now I can see it's made it through and will be here in another couple of hours. It's still going to be a hot night despite this. The next few days - rain and storms forecast. We're now well into La Niña which for us is bringing rain and warm seas. The drought is not officially broken in our state, but they expect to be able to announce it after a few more months of this. Enjoy your Friday, everyone. Marg [/QUOTE]
