The school week
A mostly uneventful week at work and school.
Natalie came over on Tuesday to use the oven and ended up making dinner for us. Yum! Temma had spent most of the day home from school “feeling sick” (which feeling mostly evaporated as soon as she was home) so it was nice for her to have someone else to talk atto.
I had chickened out of riding on Monday (still fighting off this damn cold), and worked at home on Tuesday, but I rode on Wednesday. Picked a good day for it, single-digit temperatures, rain, wind and hail. Nice. I lucked out and missed most of the worst of it, but got a good soaking ten minutes from home.
I worked at home again on Thursday, and made pork sausages with mashed potatoes and veggies for dinner. Good wholesome single dad food. Unlike the previous three evenings I didn’t have to mess around with house plans, so once the kids were in bed I got to chill out on the couch and catch up on some reading.
Friday was a half day at work so I could be home when the kids got home from school. I made pretty good times on both the ride in to work and back home, but I think that was more having a lucky run with the lights and traffic than anything else. We hung out for a while after school then I dropped the kids at Kezzie’s for the night and went out for a beer with Andrew. Go Cats!!
It’s Saturday morning now and still it rains. It’s what we do in Melbourne.
