Such a low-achievement weekend

This weekend was Grade A Lazy - socialising, reading, a bit of weaving and the minimum possible chores. We went out to Bungendore and met friends for lunch at a French restaurant on Saturday - I had moules and frites and the best lemon sorbet with vodka. And actual champagne. Unsurprisingly that wrote off the rest of Saturday, except about sunset when my husband and I dragged ourselves fatly off the sofa and went for a walk.

It was a bit grey and rainy but the sun came through at the top of our street and hit the autumn tree. Most of the autumn colours haven't started yet, but this yellow one is always early. Sunday I did a few errands before another friend's birthday drinks, at a bar, so civilised! Both the boys had heaps of homework and revision to do, so we left them at home both days with instructions like "work hard" and "make sure you get some fresh air" and "have a banana" while we gallivanted off. Hah! Take that, teenagers.

Here is me trying to get the dog to look at me so I can take her photo, but she refuses to because my husband is there and he is a god to her. No time for me when she can gaze adoringly at him.
