Yay! Last night was the last full night's sleep that I've had since we arrived here. I was awake just before Bruce's alarm clock went off - Agadoo was played which I thought was really really weird as he has it tuned to the ABC in Sydney. So I got up and went to work with him at 7am and left at 12.30pm as I still don't have a log on to the computer. I thought I could go off to knitting group, so came home and got my knitting and off I went. It's really warm outside today. Anyway, when I was about 3 shops from the craft shop I suddenly realised that today is Thursday - duh!! Knitting group is Wednesday, so I came back home and I'm going to sit and knit for a while, while the washing finishes drying on the line.
We're going away for the weekend. Destination? Sydney, lol. We're going home. I'm sure it will feel a little strange but after I've mopped the kitchen and bathroom floor it will feel like home. The boys are great with vacumming and sweeping but mopping just isn't one of their skills. Usually when we've been away the house looks really good, so I'm not worried. Bruce is working late tonight as they have a golf day tomorrow, so we'll be heading home after lunch. I have a list of things to bring back - flannelette sheets. The owners have left sheets on the bed but I'd rather warm ones. I can't figure out how we'd have them washed and back on the bed before we leave. Their white!! I thought only motels had white sheets!! I can remember sleeping on purple sheets is Mudgee. I also would like a kettle, they have a water filter that does boiling water but I don't think it makes your hot chocolate as hot as it should be! I also need my woollen coat. The gas oven here is really hard to light, we had a friend who is used to using gas and she had trouble so I have no hope. So I'll go home and cook something and put it in the oven!!
