Another day down. Do I say thank goodness or do I say bugger another one has gotten away on me? Well I was awake for not quite an hour overnight and managed to do yesterday’s blog in that time. Sorry it was late but I was that shattered I just couldn’t do it. Bloody back added in a couple of wakings too. Wake at 5:50am. And head down for breakfast, meds, and tea. Bloody Wilson is giving me grief today already too – nothing major yet just dropping things like teaspoons and meds.
Walk into the office from by the Art Gallery then taking in the city and thinking back about doing the same walk 2 years ago. I know it’s not to the day but funny how I can still remember the day of and before and seeing the buildings and even the green/Orange & red stickers from Sept still on some buildings that are standing. Also the smell of the city, the dirt and dust off demised buildings, that have fallen from their place of grace in the streets. Though they’ve gone, as a place of business, or residence, or in most cases a place of reference for us to navigate or city, we will not forget our Christchurch, it’s buildings or people. Sorry there is my sadly waffle about our fallen city.
Head off a bit earlier today as I have an appointment to be at. Head off then to collect the boys and then head for home. Boys do home work, and I do a bit more work. Thanks for your help today Bernard made life a bit easier with work. Have dinner then try to get on with the blog while fighting off the fatigue and Wilson. It is just so bloody frustrating having a random hand that can’t carrying or hold anything. Still it brought some amusement at the lunch table with Allison having a laugh at the random acts that Wilson can perform while trying to eat. Have a good evening and manage to stay awake the whole evening – yay! Watch Mrs Browns finish blog and M&D time, then bed. How’s you’re day gone? Been a good one? Lots of fun? I hope so, cause life’s to short to waste on dull days. So if it has been boring then make Friday an awesome day for yourself and for me. Take care.
Kia Kaha.

I would of thought the school could have been a bit more thoughtful chooseing the Trumpet !!! Headaches and trumpets don’t mix …. unless they are tip top ones. ….. You asked how my day was ….. I had a fantastic day !!! I took my Townhouse residants to the Casino for High Tea. Very nice and well worth the $20 (work paid for me) Highly recommend if you want to have a long catch up with friends. Keep blogging. Anna

Hi Anna, good point about the trumpet. I could play the headaches thing at them, but Lachie is enjoying it so will let it go. And you’re dead right the best trumpet is the TipTop one – especially the Cookies and Cream one.
Sounds like a good outing for all, will keep it in mind for a place for catching up, etc. Thanks for letting me know.
Have a great weekend. Btw -the kitchen looks awesome with the splash back, etc up now.
Hi to Nick and the boys. Take care.
