So it was up early this am and the House Guest had bags packed and off we went to the airport... She's off on the next leg of her journey ... to Cape Town. Safe Journey and have fun...
It has been nice having someone else to chat to - someone with (some) of the same hobbies and interests as mine!!! Also sometimes nice to have another point of view and opinion!!! l.o.l Plus now when I'm going on about 'stuff' at least I know there's someone else out there that understands...
When I got back from the airport mum was already back in 'her room'. The way the house is laid out - mum very kindly moved into Kelsey's room so our House Guest could have some privacy - the rest of the house is all open plan and you have to walk thru Kelsey's bedroom to get to mine. Kelsey had shared my room with me so the ladies each had their own room... but he talks in his sleep and he even tried to steal my pillows one night !!!! So hurray! it's him back in his own room tonight and everything back to as normal as normal can be here !!! lmao...
The rest of the weekend looks pretty dull now compared to the hectic week I've just had...
Oh! tomorrow we've got all those crazy Comrades runners passing us on our highway - if you happen to watch sports etc. or even the news keep your eyes and ears open for mention of any places like Assegay, Gillitts, Hillcrest, Kloof, Fields Hill, these are all places around us. June and Irena are daft enough to get up early so they can get a good spot to see the runners come past, it is quite a sight and very inspirational to see all these athletes and their supporters, people come from all over the world to run the Comrades Marathon (89 km's are they mad!!! I won't be there I'll be having a lie in tomorrow, dreaming about running my own marathon :-)!!!
Pleased to say got the builders back working on the 'slab' of the Granny Flat this week... with all the holidays we've had and Bruce needing his guys for a few other things, works kinda ground to a halt over the last fortnight, but they will be back again next week... Hopefully we'll see some more movement on the buildings again... Mum does keep wondering if she'll live long enough to see the buildings complete!!!!
Next week school has a Speech & Drama festival on and all the kids are encouraged to take part in some aspect of the festival... They get extra credits for taking place... Kelsey has been learning a fantastic poem that we found (author unknown) I'll post it on the blog thru the week so you can read it... Well that stupid right arm of mine got carried away again when they asked for some mum's to help!!!!! (Next meeting I'm wearing a sling to keep it strapped down!!! lol) So I'll be busy helping out at school again next week... well I can't say I'm bored now that our guest has left eh? .:-0
