Day 280

Well, I'm missing Peterborough as usual. Who knew an hour and a half could make such a difference. Ok, so it's not the distance, it's the people...but still.

Today wasn't too eventful, so this will be short. It was the normal routine thins morning complete with Josh's attitude. I folded some laundry before leaving the house, and they put on a show for me. After dropping the boys, I spent a few hours cleaning, and folding more laundry. When I finished dusting, I decided I'd go to Starbucks before heading back to the school.

I did that, and of course by the time I sat outside, the sun had hid behind clouds. It was still very warm though, so I sat outside and played DS while drinking my tea. I then headed straight to the school to collect Nathaniel and Zach.

When they came out, we raced home for their snack. My Aunt was here. I tried to hurry them along, but now they had a distraction. I knew we had to go a different way to swimming as the A12 was apparently at a stand still, so I finally got them into the car, and we were on our way.

After swimming we came back to the house. My Uncle and Josh were back from Josh's football game, and Heloise was back from school. My Uncle took Zach with him to pick up fish and chips - my last English Fish and Chips for another year! And I did homework with Josh and Nathaniel, until of course, it came to Josh's reading/procrastinating. He ended up going into the playroom to read to my Aunt instead. It's a good thing too, cuz he was driving me nuts.

We all sat down to dinner, and when we finished eating, I cleared up, and then removed the 5 day old splinter from Zach's finger. I then said good night to him, he gave me a picture he drew, and I went downstairs to watch the first half of the Greece VS Argentina game with my Uncle. I came up to shower at half time, and that was a mistake.

I went back down to see if I could watch the 2nd half in my room...and Tim was on the couch. He's watching cricket. I'm sitting in bed watching the TV, hoping he'll switch back...and he does...for 2 seconds every...5 minutes maybe? Awesome...cricket instead of the world cup. AND I just missed an effing goal!!! He just flicked back in time for me to see a replay. ARGH! Anyway, bed time for me...sort of. Maybe I'll read. Good Night xx

  1. LMAO! Woo! Cricket! Lucky!

    So, you think that you had a bad day? I found out yesterday that they are now allowing 2 people at a time off over the summer on holidays and was offered time in July...

    Why is this a problem you ask?

    A. I have already booked my flight for September cause I got a seat sale.
    B. It's the time that you and mom are in Europe and had they given me the weeks when I wanted them I would have been able to budget and go with you!

    ARGH!!

    Love you!
    Miss you!
