Dude, where's my holiday?

Just one of those days... although I'm on holidays now, the preparations are a little hectic at the moment.

Thankfully the car was repaired on time and I could pick it up this afternoon, after having brought my mother-in-law to physio once again with the car I'd lent in the meantime, returned the wheelchair to the depot, picked up prescriptions at the doctors and collecting them at the chemists, getting some of our jumbled finances sorted out before we leave on Friday, having a long, deep and meaningful chat with Eldest Daughter, washing the said lent car before returning it to the garage 20km from here amongst other things...

(Good luck to you)

 

Damn, if I didn't know myself so well, I'd almost say that I'm having a half-hearted grumble here... the upside was that it was brilliantly warm weather and it was lovely to be outside for a while...

Down to two days, and counting

 

I went off with Youngest Daughter this evening for her first lesson in the canoe.... she did it very well, and was complimented by those present. Mostly a child needs to be 12 to be able to participate because there's a particular level of coördination and strength needed but a youngster can keep up he/she can be included as well.

Actually, her dad had a harder time of it, but he's not telling ;-)
