tuesday

it was/is esther’s birthday today.  she turned 14.  imagine that.  14.  years.  amazing

she still had to go to school though

meanwhile jane spent the day zooming around trying to get ready for going to the UK tomorrow evening.  so much to do.  as well as thinking about her job which will start the day after she gets back and making sure i’m all sorted in her absence.

i worked from home today so i could watch a conference video stream, and also so i could work on a consultation document which was published this morning.  looks like it’s going to be a big piece of work over the next 6 weeks.  i could do with life being a bit less stressful at the moment but that’s ok.  just need to make sure things are planned nicely rather than left to the last minute.

esther had burger fuel burgers for tea.  that’s my mum talking to us on the phone in the middle of the table

then we watched some Apprentice.

kezia brought home some art

the sad news which i didn’t mention yesterday is that my good friend and coffee/chips buddy Warren passed away suddenly yesterday morning.  that’s incredibly sad but it’s been awesome how our group of friends has dropped everything to support Warren’s family.  Funeral is on Friday.  a sad week i think.

anyway, that’s where we’re at.  all so exhausted we can hardly talk!
