12th April 2009

We might not watch many soap operas, but we have plenty of drama right in our own backyard. This morning I was awaken to Michaela’s shriek of “Mom the toilets not flushing again”. Now you can just imagine what was going through my mind. Being Easter Sunday and I must add I was expecting some guests later on, I think I might have been jumping up and down by this point. Johnny resolved the blockage but it’s still not working 100%. We couldn’t do much about it today and will tackle the problem tomorrow. I busied myself with the cleaning chores of the day and preparing for my guests.

I have a wish list and on my wish list I would like some kind of vacuum for my husband and children to walk through before entering the house. It would suck out the dirt, dust, leaves and anything that is not meant to live indoors. This wet weather is not playing the game with my cleaning frenzy.

The day was filled with laughter and good conversation. After dinner we lit the fire in the lounge and sat eating left overs from lunch and toasting our toes. It’s not even winter yet but it was fun none the less.

The hen laid her egg in her box this morning which is such good news. No more hunting the whole garden for her nest. Hopefully she continues to lay there.
