#1966 Saturday 23 February

Yikes!  Possum in the office! 

Naomi went in to her office this morning and was greeted by a disaster area.  A possum had found his way in and...... in his efforts to escape, he had knocked over just about everything in the room.  What a mess! 

I finally captured the possum and released him outside.  My task for today is to make sure that he cannot get back in!

#1965 Saturday 23 February


Since Monday, big changes have happened!  On Monday I sold the tractor... that's a complex decision that I won't go into here... so I then planned to buy a Harley (to replace my two previous Harleys).... but when I went looking, I realised that I really just wanted my old bikes back.... not just a Harley.
Then I was free to think sensibly.... and I looked at Mazda mx5 's.  I found a bewdy on Wednesday and bought it..... but it was in Albany! So on Thursday I went to Albany on the bus and drove it home on Friday.
  
On Thursday night I stayed with Rob and Gwen (cousin) and had a beaut reunion with several family members.

 
The drive home was long.... I'm not used to long trips alone.....  but when I got home and Kaylia saw the car, it was worth it!  She was very enthusiastic.... and clearly loved being in the small car.... specially with the roof down.

#1964 Monday 18 February

The gaps between posts are becoming longer ..... this is partly because my blogging time is being taken up with my writing in the poetry blog HERE ...... and partly because Kaylia is growing up so much!  We notice each day that she is becoming more independent, more observant, more aware ..... it's great.  She is still very much a child with autism ....but she's becoming a real person ... a real character.  Those of you that knew her years ago would really notice the difference.
