Solo

More Christmas craft. I fit so much into my day when the sun comes up at 4.45. This was before breakfast. 

Paper plate Christmas trees. 

After breakfast we headed out for a wheel alignment & a wander around the shops. I've agreed to host Friday night drinks, as is the custom at Graham & Libs. Noela suggested we transfer drinks to the pool so the kids can swim. What a fabulous idea. Carol, Noela & myself chatted & enjoyed a beverage, whilst the kids swam & ate chips. What a lovely afternoon. 

This hasn't happened for ages but it's a great way to save water.

What else would you do of an evening in Brisbane? Let's go cane toad hunting.

Today we headed to Jason & Teal's for a BBQ/swim day. The kids got on famously & really didn't want to leave. We may call in for a cuppa on our way past on Friday, as they are heading down the coast.

Aurora is a terribly unsettled baby. She fell asleep in the middle of all the chaos.

Being solo, with the kids, whilst travelling is no fun. International work trips are the WORST because I can barely even speak to Michael due to time differences. I especially dislike the weekends. No matter where you go you are surrounded by families enjoying family time & I really miss him. 

Having said that, we are heading to Movieworld tomorrow. I really don't feel like it but the kids are busting & we already have the passes. 

On a positive note, Roger is behaving!
