back in the land of the living

this evening esther and i went to the supermarket which was good fun.  we both like standing and looking at the different things on the shelves so it’s ideal really.  we also bought her a usb memory stick thing for school.

i decided yesterday i was going back to work today, so i dragged myself out of bed and nearly made it to the bus station.  however, just after i left our street i decided i wasn’t quite well enough so turned round at the first roundabout and worked from home instead.

in fact esther’s had quite a fun day (despite her streaming cold).  She went to the Howick Historic Village with school which sounded like fun

jane meanwhile had school, then went to her friend fleur’s house, then i think did some more school things.  she got some good feedback from her colleagues about her school report writing too so she’s obviously doing a good job.

we bought 12 mars bars for $10 in pak ‘n’ save and the first two we opened each won a free mars bar.  bargain.
