We had huge storms here this morning and I have to tell you that I was a little bit frightened by the thunder and the lightning. Those Mummies were of no comfort really although M Sooz did at least get out of bed to check where I was and that I was okay; M Kaz just rolled over and went back to sleep, although to be fair, she hasn’t been totally well. She’s had the cold and flu tablets and the throat-numbing spray out, and she’s been using them. And at about 3 o’clock this morning she was sitting on the couch with a lemonade ice block – her go-to when she has a sore throat.
I like it when they go out and come home with presents. They went to Ipswich yesterday and came back with six large anodisid (read: very colourful and shiny) cups. Aunty Sooz loves them but it’s going to take M Kaz a moment to use them because she’s in love with her Yeti cups.
Believe it or not, M Kaz has not finished putting the Kallax shelf together but as she told them all at breakfast yesterday, she has made a good start: she has opened the box – and read the instructions. She had most everything she needed except a spirit level and yes, we all know about when she and Uncle Wayne went shopping for the spirit level (which is now travelling with him because she could see no need for one) – so it was music to M Kaz’s ears when Aunty S said she had some. And imagine M Kaz’s surprise when she mentioned the spirit level in Ipswich and Aunty D & A pulled a spare spirit level (which one do you want?) out of their “junk drawer” and insisted M Kaz bring it home to Jannie. The other thing Aunty S mentioned was that she was happy to help put the shelves together! Will M Kaz be able to accept the offer of help. Stay tuned!
