#2171 Tuesday 14th March 2023

 Long time no talk!  Things have been quiet.  Kaylia is fine .... just in her groove ... her routine.

The evening routine is like clockwork!  After tea she has the calendar marked to show the day over.  Then she heads for her room and gets ready for bed.  Soon after she calls for Naomi to come and lay out the clothes she will wear the next day.  Then she has time with Youtube on her tablet.  She's very good at searching the "history" to find her favourite videos.  At around 6.30pm she calls for me to come and do "Blue Blanket" .... this is her name for a routine where I flick the sheet and blanket to cover her up.  Then at 7pm she calls again and it's time for me to give her evening medications, "Blue Blanket" again (this is when I flick the sheet and blankets - 1,2,3) ... and then a sort of story time  where we talk about the trips that are to happen in the year.  Busselton in April .... Metricup in July....  Albany in October.   (As each trip goes by, the next trip is added to the routine.)  I try to get her to tell these to practise her speech.

Then she usually chooses for the tablet to go away and she settles to sleep.


Bob .... I've made another hidden storage box ... this time under the floor on the driver's side.  A big event is coming up  .... the 75th Classic Car Show .  This will be at the Ascot Raceway.


Bob will be one of about 100 Landrovers of all types on display.  (we have instructions NOT to wash the vehicles!  LOL)


Of course Landrovers will just be one of many different types of classics there.


I'm going to have a comfy chair or two, an umbrella,  the makings of a shelter  (if one is possible).  Plus I'll have the fridge stocked with tucker  and drinks. I don't know what will be possible on the day so I'll go equipped to have a barbie (just in case!)

It should be a memorable day.
