Sun sets over Sandy Strait
good morning all .......
good morning all .......
It's sunday morning and all's well in the world, well at least at our house it is.
Got up early and read the paper before anyone was out of bed with my morning cuppa tea out side overlooking the pool. A slight breeze but the sun is shining and looks like its going to be a very warm one.
Everyone else drags themselves up and hour later and we make pancakes and coffee. I use the word make very loosly as at woolies yesterday they had ready made pancakes going out on sale so I'll have two packs thankyou very much fresh food people. I then toast then and crisp them up and they are really wonderful and no mess. Granny would be horrified as she is so wonderful at making everything herself, right down to the jam she would have put on them. Ok granny I'll try harder next time.
Had a busy day yesterday spring cleaning, getting ready for the party next weekend.
Boys got to do the outside, washed all the buildings down , hose down, pressure clean the patio and outdoor furniture, mow and whippersnipper and Tim even mowed the block next door for a carpark.Lauri and I got to clean out the bar, and then move inside to do the rest of those damm blinds and wash the windows. Lauri vacuumed the pool and much to our surprise she admitted that it was the first time she had ever had to clean the pool.....yikes , we have had pools since she was 3 and now nearly 23.. think maybe I have slacked off a bit in her training. She says that Shayne calls her a "princess" and as she is the baby of the family I guess her older siblings spoilt her....I wouldn't do any such thing...too smart for that hey!!!!
Well after everything was all spick and span over came a cloud of smoke and ash.....we raced around and shut all the windows and doors, was very hot so had to put the air con on. The pool is a little worse for wear and the patio had a bit of ash on it so I guess the roof is covered again. Such is life.. we then rewarded ourselves with dinner out, a rare occasion here, at my favourite restaurant Rim Talay Thai....yummy yummy yummy and watched the beautiful sunset over the Sandy Strait. Now can't get better that that can it. May be I will do a post on our Thailand trip soon as the sunset there were wonderful as well.
Busy week ahead getting all the last minute things done,
will be great to catch up with everyone on Saturday and meet the rest of Lauri's new family..
Well that is my Sunday so far, too hot to venture out in the garden yet so will have to find something inside to amuse myself with.....think I could find a few more cupboards that need a clean out... How is your Sunday so far?
so till next time...take care and enjoy your day where ever you may be.
