The weekend
The storm of Saturday morning actually wasn’t so bad in the end. Everyone got up in time to be ready (notwithstanding Temma remembering breakfast at 8:50) and we got to basketball in good time. Kian had a great game. In fact the whole team did, with lots of tight, fast set plays that they pulled off. They won easily, 10-31, and it would have been even more except they let the other team get back into it in the last few minutes.
Temma seemed to like her new swimming teacher ok, so I guess she’ll keep doing the lessons. Yay.
We made a quick trip to the shops after swimming to get Kian a new toothbrush and find some peanut butter and other supplies. Coles is a HUGE pain in the ass on a Saturday morning, I do not recommend it for anyone. In the afternoon we went for a pleasant family bike ride with Andrew B, from Eltham Lower Park up to Beasley’s Nursery and back (with a devonshire tea and a muffin in the middle). Temma did really well, she’s certainly getting her cycling legs. Then we just hung out at home.
The kids didn’t want a big dinner, so we had baked beans and eggs on toast. Suited me ok. Then Doctor Who and the remaining Sarah-Jane episode and bed.
I didn’t get up for the BSC ride Sunday morning, too tired and still feeling crap with this semi-cold. But next week for sure. I did however get around to setting up a minecraft server for Kian, which made him happy. But neither of us are sure what happens now. I think he wanted to get some of his friends to use it with him.
After brunch (bacon, eggs and avocado on toast—yum!), went into the city to drop the CF card off at the camera store and tried to see mum/grandma on the way back, but she wasn’t home. Probably should have called first…
I made some totally rad cottage pie for dinner. Those of you who are not here missed out big time. If there was any room in the freezer I’d save some for you…
