STEW IS THINKING... THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY

And even better, it's Auckland Anniversary Day on Monday, so it's a three day weekend.  AWESOME.

I'm not sure what is on Saturday... it is supposed to be Keera's 1 hour visit to Sylvia Park to see her Father.  But we have had conflicting information this week... so hopefully we hear what's going on today.

Today?  Well... Lacy and Keera are coming over so Lacy can do some housework for me... it's our reciprocal agreement.  I take Keera to see her Father, and sometimes act as Lacy's 'TAXI' and in return she does some housework for me. It works for me and her.

I better get my thinking cap on and have a little 'list' for her!  Cobwebs come to mind.  And windows.  Gotta love having a 'free' housekeeper.  *smiles*

Every time Steve and/or Bex says 'Come and See Dante'... I JUST KNOW they expect me to bring my camera too!
Last night, I got 'the call'.... 

ABOVE:  so... here we have wee Dante having a bath... they give him his bath in the evenings now because it's his 'up time' before having a bigger sleep during the night.  It's working too.

ABOVE:  he loves his bath, it settles him and it won't be long before he's splashing water everywhere.

ABOVE: it's gorgeous to see how he is so fixated on his milk supply... I mean Mummy!

ABOVE:  he's gorgeous, and has all of us wrapped around his little finger.  Perfectly normal eh?  *smiles*

ABOVE:  these are the fabrics we bought the other day... now all I have to do is cut to size and hem the edges.  Bassinet and cot sheets... hopefully I'll get them done today.

ONWARD...

So..... me housekeeper is late.  Hmmmm... one is wondering if she is even coming??
If she doesn't hurry up I will have to do the vacuming myself, and that sucks.

METFORMIN:  I KEEP FORGETTING TO TAKE IT. So far this week I've remembered to take three... when I should have already taken 8.  *sigh*  I have an alarm on me phone to remind me to take the lunchtime one... but hell.  Sometimes I don't have lunch until 2pm.  And the alarm is at 1pm... so obviously I forget. 
Anyone got any ideas on how I can REMEMBER to take the bloody things?  Cos I'm hopeless.

Well... after waiting all morning I gave up on me so called 'housekeeper', I had stayed home all morning for nothing.  I went out to get some baskets for the chest freezer ...  And also got everyone sushi for lunch.
NOW I'm going to do the vacuming and the other things on the list.  

Seems my housework is bottom of Lacy's list.

Hmmm, just realised I have two perfectly healthy young people in this house, so now Brylee is doing some vacuming and Griffin is watering pots outside. 

PETA: NOT a bad idea Chick... the only problem with that is my pills would then be in reach of young children.  And as we do have young children in the house fairly often, it would not be safe.  Think of another idea *smiles*

CHRIS: Not J. S.  (private joke there people) 

Anyone else sick of door knockers who are just touting for business?  Cos I am.  Just had some bloke on the doorstep who thought my house could do with a wash, and could he do it?    The last one before him wanted to dig my dead Palm out of the ground for me.  What the hell?  Are they even allowed to go knocking on ya door asking for business?  It drives me nuts.

End of Day:  a friggin hot day... really draining.  I can't wait for winter again.  So over being hot all the time.  AND I still get hot flushes, probably only about 6 a day now, but that is 6 too many.
