Here are my pictures for today:
And my notes:
- David got up at 6.00 a.m. and left at 6.30 a.m. for a round of golf near Uxbridge.
- I woke-up at the same time as yesterday and got dressed
- Renee wanted to do her own buttons on her shirt this morning.
- Shaun turns up ata 8.00 a.m. to start finishing to walls, ready to be decorated.
- It's drizzling rain when we are leaving for school.
- Ruben gets upset in the car because he just lost the elite Pokémon battle on his DS.
- Renee notices that the billboards have changed on our way to school.
- I took a slightly different route to school this morning, as Tuesday morning the rubbish is collected in the street I normally drive through. Wise choice, as the other roads are clear.
- Renee has her daily run on the green at school with her friends before she goes in.
- After I dropped Renee at school I went to International Tiles to pick-up tiles for two of our bathrooms, as well as edging trim for the downstairs cloakroom.
- Back home: time for coffee
- Checked out new sketch for 2S4Y. Looks really good.
- Made the beds
- Rung Bathroom Affair that the recessed profiles didn't turn up last week.
- Chatted on Skype with my brother, Eric asking me what shopping he needs to bring when him and Ingrid are visiting on Saturday for 5 days. Tea, breakfast cake, licorice, pancake mix, apple sauce, etc. Now that we are close to home again, I can indulge a bit in Dutch treats again.
- Peter the contractor stopped by at 12.00 p.m. to discuss the work flow. We discovered that the water closet is leaking again upstairs. It appear the system is faulty.
- Meanwhile I was very hungry For lunch I had porridge and a banana.
- I put the washing machine on again.
- I had planned to go to Banstead in the afternoon to a lingerie shop, but I'd run out of time. Instead I tidied the living room. While putting away the wooden road the bottom fell out of the basket. What a noise.
- Purchased Ali's templates from Designer Digitals to use for this project as her looks so good. I'm going to be a copycat, I've decided.
- David got home from golf around 2.30 p.m.
- Ruben played Sonic on the Playstation.
- Rebecca played with her MyScene dolls.
- Searched online for the baseball card protectors, but couldn't find them. I asked my friend, Jessica in Portland to get them for me.
- Searched IKEA's website for a new table for the kids to do arts and crafts.
- Renee watched some Tom & Jerry before dinner.
- David made pancakes for dinner, while I did some more ironing.
- Renee practised her wordsheet for school.
- Rebecca sent a text to Beth, who's in France and the moment and will be back on Friday.
- For bedtime Renee chose to read Letterland.
- Her three songs before sleep time, she's picking Dutch songs at the moment and wants to learn them. Tonight I sang: Berend Botje, Op een klein stationetje and Witte Zwanen, Zwarte Zwanen.
- Ruben and Rebecca read to one and other for bedtime.
- Put the covers of the throw cushions in the washing machine as they look manky.
- This evening I've updated my daily blog and listened to Coyote Ugly in the background.
