Friends

Well, had plans to what we was going to do today: go to the Farmers' Market (done), prepare the ground the my new wattle tree out the front (started), prepare the vegetable patch for spring (not started), plant seeds for spring (not started), clean the laundry and paint the laundry door (not started), clean out the pantry (not started) and make some soap (not started).
Why didn't we start all these jobs? Friends called that we have not seen since February and asked us to come over and help them with their new yurt. How could we resist. The yurt is amazing, it has electricity and is insulated. It is a room for their business so that they could separate business from the home. We (DH and I) fell in love with their yurt. As soon as we walked into the yurt, we were surprised at the size of it (and it was the smallest size) and how relaxing it felt. Had such fun and didn't get home until 6.00 pm. The above jobs can wait until next weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed visiting these friends, should do it more often.
Have a great Sunday night.

I've got worms.

Yep, I have worms. About 2000 of them. They wriggle and squirm and are really slimy. Brad, Liam and I went yesterday to a great place here in Canberra (Back to the Future) and bought them. I have fed them with some my scraps and really seem to like it. I have named a few of them:

Wendy and Steve (they have the spa in the worm farm), Donna S (she is the one that email the other worms with the jokes), Chris (you always see his 'plumber's crack), Sue E, (always happy to see everyone), Dave (works hard and is rarely seen), Leanne (the one everyone goes to for advice about drugs), Craig, Barry and Brad (these guys try to do kite surfing, weight boarding, to out do Steve). Sue K (occasionally seen, when seen is always late). Pauline (the sexy, good looking, smart but can't find a job), Lois (the one that visits the other lands). Jo (always playing sport), Alan (the party animal). Others are named: Declan, Liam, Cassie, Emilie, Emily, Charolette, Sean, Gillian, Allora, Caroline, Alyssa, Joel, Kate, Sarah, Steph, Fraser.

The names of the worms are not related to anyone that I know and are purely 'fictional' (yeah right).

Hope no-one is offended.

have fun and be good

A pressie

Two blogs in one day.

I had a lovely surprise tonight. My boys had finished their tennis lessons when the gorgeous Emilie gave me a gift from a student (J) who I taught when I was doing relief. J had left the school with two weeks left to visit relatives overseas and she bought me a present back. What a great surprise!!! I must not have been that bad as a teacher (even though no one will give me a job as a teacher, not my fault). It is a wonderful 'cork' ornament. I haven't seen J since November and she is now in Year 7.

What a lucky person I am.

take care
