Today? Morning shopping and drive ..... Kaylia and I went out along Great Eastern Highway till we reached Wundowie .... then we turned up the road that was the access to the Alandale Methodist Boys Home that was our home 1955 to 1958 (approx) ..... Mum & Dad were employed there..... we drove past the pipe line ... I remember being along there with Peter while we watched Dad working .... Pete was bitten by a bull ant. The property is now a university research station.
Then we drove back toward Perth along the back roads ..... through Wooroloo, Chidlow, Mt Helena and back to Mundaring. The roads are full of old memories for me.
In the afternoon, Naomi took Kaylia off for a "mummy drive" ..... doing the curcuit round the weir and back through Kalamunda.
When cooking tea tonight, Naomi was day-dreaming .... it was meant to be spaghetti bolognaise .... but she kept adding ingredients .... and before she realised, it became "Spaghetti Mexicana" instead! But we ate it from bowls ... so it became "Spaghetti Bowlanaise".
Kaylia is still focused on school .... counting the days till she can go back to her much loved school. I never cease to be thankful that she loves school so much.
