April showers & May days.....

One week of holiday and there is no exciting news to tell.

I was sick for the most part. I left work sick on the previous

Wednesday and felt bilious for about 6 days and only started

feeling better half way through the second week. I then

tackled the party preparations AGAIN and completed the

invitations. I also changed some furniture around in the

house. I bought some new office equipment and re-arranged

my home office, when I received my new bookshelf-cabinet

I had designed and ordered. I asked Dean to remove 3

bookshelves from the upstairs lounge and bought a new

chair for there. [Less dust and more seating is best, I think]

We visited the annual EL Agricultural show that takes place at

the Gonubie show grounds. My mom, dad, Lauren and myself

joined Lance and Allison (and Allison’s family – mom Jenny,

AND her sister Verity, husband Danny and kids - visiting here

from France). Lauren and Charlie enjoyed the fun rides.

We looked around at the crafts and displays and Lauren

enjoyed seeing all the farm animals of course. Lance lifted

her up to see the white horse and it neighed right in her face.

We all got such a fright!

Lauren and I spent a few hours at Strawberry field during

the week. Dean went fishing and I sat reading magazines

while Lauren made friends with all and sundry at the

playground. We went shopping at Vincent Park Centre too

and had lunch at the Wimpy.

So I spent plenty of time filing, sorting, shopping and doing

a house make-over, but very little time on leisure. I still

have a very long list of plans, chores and sorting-out to do.

Maybe there will be time for a holiday in July?
