[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 224285, member: 1991"] G'day, folks. Linda, the snacks sound great. I'm hoping to do some cooking with difficult child 3 tomorrow. Either that, or his science project (he has to get started over our summer holidays). It's late Friday evening here, I gave difficult child 3 the day off school so we could go Christmas shopping. It was the last day of the school year, so this was no big deal. We took mother in law, met up with easy child 2/difficult child 2 who wasn't working today, and blitzed our shopping lists. As soon as we got home difficult child 3 went straight to the computer to log his purchases against his spreadsheet, then he went to wrap them. He asked me to write his tags, although he wrote a couple more himself. His wrapping is VERY amateurish, but functional. He wanted me to help towards the end of it, I wanted him to stop and continue tomorrow, but he HAD to finish. Tomorrow I'll finish off my wrapping then take difficult child 3 to mother in law's to set up her Christmas tree in the final spot. sister in law and kids arrive on Tuesday. brother in law has decided to not come; he wants to stay on the other side of the country, on his own. No comment. I am really tired, after a busy day. It was a very pleasant summer day, despite a forecast of cool and rain. I finally bought myself a new swimsuit - I was really pleased, it's really flattering and hides the fact that I now had rolls of saggy skin thanks to my weight loss. AND it was cheap! I was hoping to christen it this afternoon, but tomorrow will have to do. The forecast says it will be cool and rainy. So whatever happens, I win. If it rains, the garden gets the benefit. If it's sunny, my tan wins. Our summer purchases have one more item on the list - board wax for difficult child 3's skim board. I'm going to Google for alternatives, I suspect I have the ingredients already, to make something just as effective. I LOVE being as organised as this, with days left to go! Plus husband is on Christmas holidays as of today, until after New Year. I always enjoy it when he's on holidays, we enjoy spending time together and I also enjoy seeing him relax and potter around in his workshop. Enjoy your Friday, everyone. Marg [/QUOTE]
