What I Did in (the last week of ) My Holidays

1. Said goodbye to the Baby Angel as she flew off to Brisbane to meet up with her Dad and Super Step Mum

2. Shop shop shopped with Mum and SmokyJo...2 x new trousers, a size bigger than usual :-( and a shirt which was designed with me in mind..happy happy happy

3.Farewell dinner with family (why are my boys such philistines?????????)

4. Waved goodbye to SmokyJo and Big J *waaaaaaaaaaaah*

5. Bike ride and a SPANKING!!!! (Small Boy, not me teehee)

6. Sorted the piles of work/paper/crap that were taking up a quarter of the study floor. They now take up one eighth of the study floor and some of the lounge.

7. Got locked in my bedroom when the door catch broke. Rescued by No 2 Son who shouldered the door in for me. (took three goes!!) Bought all new door catches as this is the second time someone has been locked in somewhere and the third catch which has broken. No 2 Son replaces 2 and gets tired. Dad is coming to do the rest today >:-( (further mental note...buy two new doors to replace the ones cracked by forcible entry)

8. Bike ride. No spanking. Charming acquiescence on all counts by Small Boy. Tired thighs....must be a good sign?

9. Rewrite a script for a website launch DVD in consultation with Himself and Tyre Man who is very concerned about whether we mention the 4WD feature on page 20 349 of the website...... bottom left.

10. Refrain from strangling Tyre Man.

11. Pour more alcohol and finish script when he isn't looking but is instead pre-occupied with looking at 4WD feature on page 20348 (bottom right) of Himself's screen and comparing it to Light Truck feature.

12. Kick out Tyre Man (happy boy) and complete voice over recording by 12.30am. Retire to bed and leave Himself to work until 2.30am assembling a rough cut of the DVD.

And For Today..........................

Shopping with my MUM (hooray!!!! we're going to the outlet centre. I've never been there before because I know I will become addicted) Evening Revels with the Bestie.

Tomorrow...................................

Lunch with an old friend and a MASSAGE followed by SCRAPBOOKING !!!! (a rare treat as it usually clashes with netball and another opportunity to drink champagne with friends)

At some point I need to try and decide what I will teach my eager little sponges this year. Wednesday next week is my first day back for staff meetings etc. Kids return on the 29th.
