School holidays
Afternoon all...
I get really slack posting when Scott's home, sorry 'bout that.
We've just dropped him off at the airport, and now i'm desperately trying to find things for the kids to do. They're out the back playing with the doggies now that the rain has finally stopped.
We had 2 non-stop rainy days and today is still very cold, but the sun is shining and i don't think there is any more rain forcasted for this week.
Roz asked me yesterday if she could have Hallie at her place for the afternoon, as her daughter Brianna (21 months old) is still in her cast and was getting very lonely playing on her own. So we dropped Hallie off at 12:30 yesterday, then met Roz, Craig & the kids at 5:30 for dinner at the 'local' here in D-Bay. We didn't even know that it exsisted until the other day, it's nestled between the drive-through bottle shop and the plaza. What a find!
The kids meals started from $1.50 - I kid you not... It was a beautiful little feed, and a lovely spot to take the kids, so a big thumbs up from us!
After we all ate, we decided to swing by our house & put the kids into their PJ's and go back up to Roz's house for a 'quiet one'. The kids ALL went straight to sleep and we had a few drinks, then Roz pulled out a deck of cards and taught Scott & I how to play 'Damn it' - it was like a game of 500 (sort of) and bloody hell, I have never laughed so much in my whole life. It was such a great night, we never get to do that.
We packed the cards up and went to bed at 2am, Molly woke at 6:30 & we snuck everyone out to the car and came home. We ran around & did our last minute jobs, then took Scott to the airport.
I am SO tired.... An early night for us tonight.
Hope you are all well. I will plan some 'holiday activities' for the kids and take some photos to put on here. Promise!
Love and sweet dreams xx

Sounds like a game we used to call "Buggery", like 500, except we were dealt one less card every time.... is that it??
Good night by all accounts!!!
Yes, that's it Pin.
I've got a feeling they said people called it 'bugger it' too. Must be the same one!
Sounds like you had a great night! Brad and I are always pulling out the cards when we have people over for dinner, it's such a great way to fill in an evening.
How's the knitting going?
Love Jodes
Why dont my comments show up anymore :(
I said something about Scott and I used to eat at D Bay Tavern and it was cheap back then too. That's where I ran Karaoke each Thursday night.
I got your emails Jen. I need to speak to you about something so keep everything on hold for me?
I don't know why your comments don't appear - that's really strange. I did keep everything on hold for you - haha... I kinda knew not to continue till i spoke with you! ESP huh?
Jodie! How's the knitting going?? Ah, not at all actually... The kids are home for holidays, and i haven't even picked my knitting up! I started, i know how to do it all, just gotto find some time. Maybe when the kids are back at school...
