Well, well, it's been a while since I wrote here, in fact looks like I've skipped out the whole of March.
It has been a busy time at work, even working late which I don't think I've done since Thomas was born.
I can't say much has been happening in my life since my last entry.
Tine is here for a short 2 week visit. She arrived on the 27th March and leaves already tommorow. She has been lucky with the weather. It's been between 25 - 30 degrees every day, apart from one or 2 days. It poured with rain the night she arrived and was actually cold. We were worried that the winter had started but it seems we have been blessed with a few more weeks of summer.
Tine arrived Friday night. Saturday we had the waldorf fare. I had baked a cake and bought a cake out of guilt of not being on cake selling duty. The weather had cleared up and there was no rain. Mor and Tine were going to come but I called them to say we were leaving. They came over for dinner and we braaid a fillet, and I made a potato bake and bearnaise sauce and salad. Was a nice evening.
Sunday the weather was great, so we went to boulders in 2 cars. Craig took Thomas to navy day and Mor, Tine, Alexander and I went to boulders. It was windy but down at the beach totally sheltered. Christy, Phil and Aidan were also there and as usual we were joined by a few penguins. At least the beach is not as smelly (from penguin poo) as I remember it. Craig dropped Thomas off and went off to do the shopping. So Thomas only had a little time as we had to get going to try avoid all the navy day traffic.
For most of the week, Tine just relaxed by the pool at Mor's house. I think Peppi popped in for a few visits. Mor had the Friday off, but I couldn't take off unfortunately. It was a scorcher wind free day and they went to Fish hoek beach. There are not many days in the year where one can sit on Fish hoek beach and not get blasted away. Saturday, Craig dropped me and the kids off at Nate's party in Noordhoek and he went to visit Mark (they haven't seen each other for a while)
