Birthdays, weekends and stuff

Okay so on Friday it was my birthday well I was blessed by message of good will from my family and friends and recieved some lovely pressies. The day itself though was odd. I should have realised that it was going to be that way when the first thing I did on Friday morning was drop the cornflake canister on the kitchen floor by accident. You have no idea how far those flakes can travel. Try it its fun especially when your six year old comes in and thinks cornflakes make a cool sound when you stomp on them. Well I managed to clean them up without losing my rag thankfully. But yeah I should have realised. Well work was busy but it was with all those niggly things that irritate you ugh. I couldnt wait to leave. I got home and relaxed with friends popping in and out. It was nice.
Saturday was cold and wet so we stayed at home it was relaxing, I did do stuff, but I cant for the life of me remember what LOL. Sunday we popped to shop for a few groceries and then I made lunch and put some of Hannahs things away and got her new sleepers out. I didnt think they would fit as well as they do, obviously her others were way to small and I was just in denial. I also popped in at Naartjie a baby/kiddie clothing shop/boutique and bought some winter stuff on sale for Hannah. Its still cold here right through to November so even though she has a good wardrobe for 6-12 months its mostly summery stuff. She does have more than enough though as I have been given so much too from other moms, whose princesses have outgrown their things. I cleaned the pool a bit. Just put a salt chlorinater and new pump in. Then took some photos of Hannah. Martyn is still away and it sucks.

Stuff

So its a slow day here in Africa. Its raining and for a change the weather is acting like it really is winter. I am telling you thats why we get sick all the time. I mean today its cold 14deg C and raining. They are predicting snow on the mountains close by so it means real temps of more like 7deg tomorrow. Now just on Saturday gone the 29th of July the mercury rose to 28deg C yes you read it right. How is it possible to have such extremes you ask. Dunno, you are asking the wrong person. But thats why we get sick, germs really thrive in this kind of climate.
So Adam and Hannah both have a cold. Ugh so frustrating.
Really busy at the moment. With the other half working away, its me, myself and I and I do my best not to have pity parties too regularly. Seriously we are actually coping okay. They boys have been really good which I knew they would be. So I am just waffling but anyway. We are all really excited about our little trip, I really am looking forward to seeing my Nanna again. Anyway I was looking through Hannahs cupboard cause she is starting to move into next clothes size and to start off with she has more than enough. Its sad though having to put her small stuff away. Sniff Sniff.
Luke is into: Lets tell Mom something but include the tiniest detail so that it takes HOURS to tell her. Adam still copies everything Luke does, naturally. Wait that means Hannah will probably copy both of them. That should be fun. M should be home around 9th of August through to the 14th I have a hair appointment on the 12th and let me tell you how much I am looking forward to those two hours of peace and quiet. I cannot wait.
Anyway enough for today.
