Ok....so....Its Chinese New Year...and it coincided with the first day back to school...YAY for me because I didnt have to cook ! :) Dodgy I know...but the first day back to work after six weeks off work is HELL !!
My wonderful, magnificent mother, prepared all day for a magnificent steam boat....ahhhhh....dee-lish ! A meal thoroughly enjoyed by all and sundry. After a super quick visit we were driving back home and into bed for an early night, ready for the next day.
Fast forward another week...and its Friday already and week two of the twelve week term is done and dusted ! Woo hoo ! Everyone is zipping along fine. Madi started at high school this year, Julian in year six, Michaela in year eleven, Prue in year four and Josh doing his diploma in Digital Media at TAFE. Me - I have the "juniors" in the early childhood room at Cloverdale ESC. I am in an new building built with Kevin Rudd (ex-PM) money...the sucky thing is that I have NO air conditioning and its HOT ! Seminary started back this week and its on for young and old already ! Phew ! I'm tired !
Harvey's vines have taken off. His largest haul was a bunch of grapes that was just over a kilo in weight ! Everything else in the veggie patch has "bitten the dust" tho. Quite literally ! Perth is SO hot and dry. Tragic. Nothing will grow no matter how much he waters and tends....sad.
Last Saturday Harv and I attended the Christmas Island Chinese New Year ball at the Burswood. The food was wonderful and there was a fun floor show and of course, the traditional Lion Dancing. Harvey even danced with me ! It was fun to get all "glammed" up in a party dress. My friend Tanya even did my make up. I felt like the princess ! Z:) Photos soon to follow...once I upload them !
