Weekend of errands

A boring but satisfying weekend all round. We chased up some cardboard boxes to pack our kitchen into (demolition next weekend! scary); bought some packing paper and tape; tidied up various shelves including my little weaving nest and contemplated life cooking out of the electric frypan and microwave. Although my husband has promised to clean the bbq so that sounds more appealing.



I went for a walk which was unexpectedly hot (and I am very unfit, I haven't done any proper exercise since before Christmas). The scrubby bush and red dirt looked like it normally does. Unprepossessing.



Husband, Dad and number two son went to the Canberra Show on Friday night where number two son did hair raising rides, Dad was shocked at how much it reminded him of the ag shows when he was a boy back in the late mesozoic, and husband won Overall Grand Champion of All the Models in the Show!!!!! he was very chuffed, but it was well deserved - that is a very well planned, researched, detailed and executed little green plane thing.



He had to go back to the show to do desk duty on Saturday, Dad went to a stamp show on Sunday, we had friends round for dinner Sunday night, number one son went to a birthday at a swimming pool, I did some dyeing and finally cut my tub of too-small-to-be-yardage-too-big-to-be-scraps into strips of regulation sizes to be used in scrap quilts. It was very satisfying.

  1. And so life goes on. Well done to your husband! That red picture couldn't possibly be here, but the last one just about could if you don't look too closely at the trees. Except I imagine it's hotter.
