#754 Saturday 7 December

10 days to go .... Kaylia still can't grasp the idea of waiting ... she wants NOW!

Last night was a dry night after a run of wet nights.  .... and Teddy decided to disturb our sleep instead.  After his summer cut, he was cold!  He couldn't settle till I wrapped him in a blanket.

3pm. Every few years I do something really stupid .... and I've done it again this afternoon.  I drove down the back with the Falcon .... and decided to drive a slightly different route ... but I didn't get out and check the route before ..... and after getting to the point of no return I found an obstacle that the car couldn't get past.  Then in turning around I got the car stuck. .... and in the process dented the side of the car.  Stupid.

Fortunately a neighbour had a 4WD and pulled me out.

..... and all this was to do a good turn for a friend!  Sheesh!

Teddy is having a haircut today.  It's time for the "summer cut".  I'll go and collect him from the groomer's soon.

I'll add a photo of Summer Teddy.

#752 Thursday 5 December

The new coat of paint is happening!

This Chris ..... Lara's better half.  He's a powerhouse of maintenance projects!

Do you like the new colour?

It's "after school" and Kaylia is out enjoying herself with Lara .... probably at the "slee poo poo".

#751 Wednesday 4 December

It's that time of year again and we had the staff Christmas party last night at a Thai restaurant ...... Yummy!  Kaylia took her crew to Nandos while Naomi and I had to "do our bit".   Kaylia clearly enjoyed her evening with Lara ... when we arrived home she was still bouncing!

Tonight Kaylia will have her favourite .... chocolate pizza from 'Little Cesears' !!! We will have a 'send off' special meal for Jo who leaves us tomorrow.

After tea ..... the pizza shop messed up our order and the pizzas we had for tea weren't the pizzas we ordered!  Never mind  .... they were still very nice.  At  least they got the chocolate pizza right!

#750 Monday 2 December

Another wet bed ..... it's getting monotonous ..... 4 nights in a row.  She has learned to tell fibs!   She doesn't like to get out of bed to go to the toilet .... so when asked if she has already been she is saying "yes".  Up till now she has always answered factually .... now she is saying what will let her stay in bed.   I'll stop asking her and just insist on a toilet visit regardless.

#749 Sunday 1 December

Kaylia has been having a bubble bath outside this morning .... the new bathtub works a treat and with bubbles it's even better.  While she was doing that (and having some mummy-time) I had some shed time .... using a "pole-saw" in the garden.  I think it's the firstime in about three years that I've been out there.

Teddy has a new spot to retreat to .....
