The boys and I are back in the sunburnt country, it is so dry and hot.
At times I feel a little alien, like when the bank teller looks at me strangely because I am unsure where to swipe my card. She quickly makes an appointment for me to come in and get the run down on all that has transpired with banking since our departure. That should be joyful.
It is lovely being in our house.
After 12 years of imagining we now have a front fence, which the DSG began building before his return to Samoa. His wavy gate is the cherry and faux stacked quartz tiles will be adhered to the blue board upon his return.
We unravelled into our house quickly and took time out for walks, surfing and getting together with some excellent friends. Including being reunited with our beloved dog, Dee Dee.
We went to see the Life of Pi and the 3D glasses made Smiley and I feel ill.
Sadly the Domestic Surf God had to return to Samoa, we wept for a long while when we returned to the house he made for us.
DD sleeps under his side of the bed in case he might be there to walk her in the morning. She struggles a little with me.
My little boys have stepped up and help out with running the house.
Though the play fighting is a little too boy for me.
Can't wait for Dad to come home.
He'll be home before you know it and DD will get her walks, the boys will get a wrestling partner, the bricks will get stacked and you can all enjoy life together again. Don't sweat the other stuff. I've been here all along and don't understand the banks either!
ReplyDeleteAt least the sunburnt country is finally getting a big drink! It will feel just like Samoa! x
Welcome back. The rain has come with a vengeance so I hope you and yours came through without any damage. We lost tree tops!!! The creek was very flooded but runs off quickly and then the power was out for over 25 hours. Nothing lost so all is well. That fence of yours looks pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteThank you good to be back.
