[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 148320, member: 1991"] G'day, people. My, we ARE a colourful lot today! Linda, the birds sound wonderful, I'm glad they've all come home for you to paint. Sharon/Wiped, I hope you're not coming down with anything. The early night sounds like a good idea. Sharon/LDM, A busy day lined up for you, but the BOGOF book fair sounds like my idea of heaven. We've had a fairly quiet day today, difficult child 3 & I. Then talking to mother in law this afternoon I discovered that easy child & BF1 were driving down to stay overnight with her - and they hadn't told us! (They stay with her because our house is currently too crowded). It's a flying visit, they have to continue to Canberra in the morning, BF1 has a work meeting there tomorrow. They'd organised it to coincide with our long weekend, so they could visit friends they've left behind in their move north to Newcastle, but totally forgot that they would be arriving in Canberra at the same time as the Olympic Torch relay! NOT good planning. Hopefully they'll not get caught in too much traffic, with road closures etc. BF1 has to be in the city CBD and Canberra is not that big, for a national capital. husband, difficult child 3 & I just walked down to mother in law's to see easy child & BF1, to fill them in on all our news (and vice versa). They didn't arrive until 9 pm, they have to leave by 7 am, so we didn't really have very long. But even a little time is better than no time at all. Our long weekend - it's Anzac Day on Friday, a very important day commemorating the sacrifices made in war by our service personnel. Just about everything shuts down - except for the pubs, although even they don't open until after the March (every city, every country town, has an Anzac Day parade with wreaths laid on the cenotaph). husband & mother in law are planning to lay some flowers at our village cenotaph in memory of father in law. Tomorrow I have to get shopping done. mother in law has to get blood tests done so I'm driving her out so we can get our tasks done together. easy child 2/difficult child 2 finishes work at 3 pm and wants to show us the wedding dress she has chosen and how it looks when she tries it on. mother in law wants to see it too, even though the shop is up four flights of stairs. mother in law is afraid she won't be still with us to see her granddaughter get married, so tomorrow will be important for her. Enjoy your Wednesday. Marg [/QUOTE]
