    I'm in again... in my own haphazard fashion! :D

    Thanks for the lists and mule flinging Pigpen, and Toots for stars, encouragement and all round darn loveliness!

    Today we did go for the bike ride. DD3 rode all the way to the park, probably about 2.5 miles. And discovered how to work the brakes. :T We had a nice brunch there, and bumped into my stepbrother :D ACE!! :D really nice to see him, we're a bit vague about keeping regular contact! :rolleyes: so we sat and chatted for almost 2 hours over coffee.

    I fell fast asleep when we got home, :o while DH mowed the jungle, and strimmed the edges. So I have an overgrown forest with a lawn now! :rotfl:

    DD3 found a dvd of old family camcorder footage from about 5 years ago. Ahhhhhhhh little sweeties. It's amazing how much the children have changed. It was gorgeous to watch. :D

    Right:
    WM x5
    TDx 5 dried and folded.
    Lunches sorted for school tomorrow.
    LR swept through

    Not bad.

    My 5 things this week:
    1. Defrost the small freezer
    2. Make tomato soup for DD2 (who has been more smiley this week :) :j )
    3. Get teachers pressies sorted for end of term
    4. Buy paint for LR
    5. Dye hair
