valentimes day today (as kezia used to call it).  jane found this heart shaped special k this morning.  and there was the usual collection of cards

i had a meeting at the industry group office just 10 minutes from home which was very convenient because i needed to be home all afternoon to greet the men who were installing a new copper broadband line in to our house.  it was quite a quick process to put it in, but then the Telecom chap spent a couple of hours doing lots of testing and measurements so they have something to compare it against when we get upgraded to fibre, hopefully within the next month

we’re now on an uncontended test network so anyone skyping us might notice we look even more lovely than normal (i think that’s what it means)

jane had her second week of work at church doing her music group roster sorting.  it’s now got to the ‘oh no, how am i going to remember all that’ stage but i’m sure she’ll be fine once she’s gone through the process a couple of times.  let’s hope the lady who is doing it doesn’t have her baby until at least the due date so jane gets a couple more supervised sessions where she can ask plenty of questions

this evening the girls got on with their homework and music practices so well we let them have a late night swim.  jane went in briefly, but it was a bit chully due to the recent rain so she made a hasty exit

so jane and i sat watching the sunset over the creek and occasionally chuckling at the sight of our our gymnastic guinea pigs running round in circles at amazing speeds
