Last night we spent the whole evening outside which was really nice.....I cut all the grass at the front and most at the back...Susie walked around with me. Abigail spent the evening playing hopscotch...still her latest craze!! Laurie and Chris helped Lloyd in the workshop and with the coop....Sam went to bed early as he was outside all day and didn't nap really.
I'm on a rollercoaster this morning.....one minute happy and calm and the next I'm grumpy and stressed. No idea why. Hopefully the day will improve. It's Friday! I love Fridays....Lloyd usually finishes work early and we can relax for a couple of days.
What do we have planned for the weekend? The weather is set to be really lovely! Laurie has been invited to a bowling party tomorrow and has been invited to sleep over afterwards...but he is the only child sleeping over so they have asked him not to mention it to anyone at the party. His friends (the twins) invite Laurie to sleep over most weekends...and if he doesn't go there then they often stay here.....they're great boys....there aren't many 'other peoples kids' that I like lol! So tomorrow we will take Laurie to the bowling party and DH and I will probably go out for a late lunch while we are in town.....
Chris just had a phone call from his friend (he must have the day off school????) and has been invited to sleep over tonight at his home in town....so I think Lloyd can pick up take out when he drops him off ;)
Sunday we are hoping to go over to the Devonian Botanical Gardens...Lloyd wants me to try out my camera there on the flowers....we've never been before. Apart from that we will probably relax here...and hopefully find the tent and set it up and have a camp-out and practice for when we go away....I'm planning on camping with the kids a few times during the summer......real camping...in a TENT.....sleeping in a trailer or RV is NOT camping!!!!!! lol!!!
The older three are having yet another game of Risk.....battling it out for world domination!! Abigail is playing in her room and Sam is napping.....laundry is on...house is tidy.....I need to dust...Chris normally dusts for me but he's done a lot for me this week so I will do it.....my front windows need washing too.
I had two weird dreams last night. In the first we were arriving home (a house in a subdivision which is nightmarish enough!) and there was this weird fur covered car in the shape of a horse and there was a glass box in the centre with a childs coffin in it....Susie looked at it and then kind of fell to the floor crying that one of the twins next door...a girl named Elijah was dead......
In the next dream I was working for Sharon Osbourne. The Osbournes had moved up to Canada and were living in a modular home that looked small from outside but was huge inside.....I straightened her hair for her and was sat on the floor in her bedroom chatting with her most of the time.....and I noticed their oven was missing.....there was a big gap in the kitchen where it should be...and all the rings from the stove top were in the sink being washed....
I have no idea what those dreams were about.
I think I need coffee. And sugar!!! Actually sugar is probably the last thing I need really but I know it would make me feel better for a little while. I think I'll have a banana.
The lady I know that is going to the UK in a few weeks pm'ed me today to say she got confirmation that they have tickets to go and walk in amongst the stones at stonehenge!! How cool is that???? She thanked me for telling her about it as they hadn't known you could do that!
I remember walking amongst the stones a lot as a child.....you still could back then but thanks to a few idiots who grafittied and damaged the stones, they roped them all off several years ago. A woman posted on a board a few months ago that stonehenge was 'just a bunch of stones' and not worth visiting!!! How stupid and ignorant is she????? I find Stonehenge magical and amazing and very spiritual....it's history is a total puzzle still to this day.....the museum under the ground is really interesting too and the cafe there does the most amazing rock cakes and cheese scones :) Since I was born Stonehenge was always our halfway point on day trips to London...we would stop for the bathrooms and for coffee or a picnic.....seeing the stones from the 303 as you drive past is wonderful....just imagine how long they have been there and how far those rocks have travelled...and how many generations have looked at them with awe.....
ok...coffee...banana.......must have......
