Day 292

This morning, I was up, and thinking I had more time than I did...I took my time to get ready. Of course, because I did that, nothing went right. My makeup was wrong, and when I started eating a pear...well...I can't even explain the type of pain that was going on in my mouth. Anyway, running late, I jumped in the car, and I met Toni for a coffee. We had discussed last night how it couldn't be the last time we'd see each other, so there we were at Starbucks. We talked, and then she told me it was time for my gift. She didn't want me to have to be there when she bought it, but as she didn't know my ring size, she said it was a must. Well, you should see the ring she bought me. It's purple, and it's beautiful! After we walked around a bit more, and took a look in Bench, the two of us said see you later (As we knew we were going for a coffee in the afternoon), and we went our separate ways.

When I got back to the house, my Mom and I walked around the garden until it was time to go to the school for "Inflatables Day". We spent a few hours there while the boys went on the bouncy castles, and I got pretty burnt. My Mom and I left, walked back to the house, and got in the car to drive to Braintree.

When we arrived, I was parking the car, and the tire went completely flat. Great! We walked in, and met Toni for a frappuccino. After a bit, we walked around until the stores closed. When they did, we went around the centre taking pictures on all the kiddie rides. It was awesome, and difficult (as our bums are a but big for things like that) all at the same time. We walked back to the parking lot, and pumped the tire up with a foot pump. Once the job was done, we dropped Toni at her car. We said goodbye, and as I was pulling away...I broke into tears. It was not easy at all.

We drove back to the house where I went straight to my room. Soon enough Zach was knocking on my door to give me a huge hug. After talking to me for a little bit, he asked if it was ok that he go and watch the rest of "Scooby-Doo". I said yes, and thanked him, and off he went. He came up again later, and asked me to flat iron his hair...so I did. He also wanted me to cut it, but I told him if I did, I'd be kicked out of the house.

We went down for dinner, and after eating i washed my hair. Then my Mom, Heloise and I took a look at the amazing tree house Tim's building for Zach's birthday - the boys don't know about it yet - and then we popped some popcorn and put in "Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus". Now as I sit here watching and catching up on my blogs, I'm falling asleep. I may have to go up before it's over. Sorry for the delay in blogs. I'll try to keep up to date from now on. Thanks for reading. Good Night xx
