It is suppose to be spring here in my little corner of the world, but I am not so sure about that. In Africa, where I grew up, we have about 3 days of spring and then it is SUMMER. Not here, oh no, we have to go through the full 3 months of spring, which to me still feels like winter :-( It takes forever to have beach weather. On the other hand, I still want to go to the mountains for a bit of tobogganing before summer is here. But being from Africa, we keep on waiting for the perfect day to go to the snow. We don't want rain, hail, snow or wind when we go - no way, it's too cold and wet then. The only sunny days we had so far this winter, was in the middle of the week. So, here we are, still waiting for a sunny Sunday.
So now for our relatively quiet weekend schedule (this is REALLY a very relaxed weekend compared to most of our others). It makes me realize what a wonderful social life the girls have and what a crappy one I have!
| Friday 5 September | |
| 3:30pm | Pick both girls up from two different schools |
| 7:00pm | Drop both girls off at Youth Group activities - an all nighter this time |
| 10:00pm | Pick girl no.2 up from Youth Group activities - she doesn't want to stay the night |
| Saturday 6 September | |
| 8:10am | Take girl no.1 to basketball game |
| 8:30am | Pick girl no.1 up from Youth Group activities (after the all nighter) |
| 11:00am | Take girl no.2 to the basketball game of the team she's coaching |
| 1:00pm | Pick a friend of girl no.1 up from tennis, because she's staying the night - parents away |
| ??pm | Take girl no.1 to her basketball game |
| ??pm | Take girl no.1 and her stay-over friend bikini shopping - another depressing thing, because I can't wear one! |
| 11:30pm | Anticipating:Yelling at the girls because they don't want to quiet down. |
Now, Sunday is still a mystery to me. If it is not raining, snowing or windy, we'll go for a visit to the snow. Otherwise it is church in the morning. Whatever we do on Sunday we HAVE TO BE BACK AT 5pm, because girl no.1 and her stay-over friend has a small group get together at church... which finishes at 8:15pm... another pickup to do.
Well, that's it for the weekend. Tonight we're off to an information night at school to help with the subject choices for year 10, but more about that later in the week.
