December!!!!!

Where is the time going? I have spent the last few months organising a conference that will be in the second week of January, and it is starting to speed up and get a bit serious. It is all perfectly under control (or as much as it can be) but the reality is starting to kick in, and it's only going to get worse.

In the meantime normal end-of-year things go on. Last week was the Year 12 formal for number one son. He wore the same suit as for his Year 10 formal, and a new shirt from the Zara sale rack. He looks super spiffing, and he said he had a great time. Yesterday he went to play Laser Tag and today he's off to his usual dungeons and dragons Tuesday. I am not sure how much of a holiday he gets before he needs to Find a Job, but apparently there are a few things in the pipeline.



Handsome son and daggy fat mum. And we are inching towards kitchen renewal with benchtop and cupboard samples! There are forty shades of white, I should have guessed. We are comparing them over sunlight and natural light and artificial light but honestly? We don't really care and whatever we pick will be uninspired. White, off white, natural white, bright white, arctic white, soft white .... aaaaaargh.
