I never would have thought that the idea of gardening would have created such a stir in SK & myself. I returned home from work after having a good & yet again exhaustingly busy day. The first thing I did was hop into the pool to cool down. Over the christmas period we purchasd an Intex 12′ pool which is large enough for us all to sit in & relax but not big enough to call anything “swimming” in it. One person could float around in it luxuriously without touching sides. The 2 nieces loved jumping & splashing about in it recently. So once I cooled down to the point of actually shivering (!) I then got out & wondered around the backyard looking at all of the lovely seedlings & plants we have germinated. This reminded me of the orders i recently placed & made me feel quite excited at the thought of what’s coming. I am looking forward to pottering around (as my beloved Dad used to say) & sowing more seeds to germinate seedlings. The last trip to Bunnings that we took had us securing a Yates Propagators Kit to use alongside our homemade ones. This will become invaluable within the next few weeks.

I contacted via sms all my co-workers from the Child Care Centre today & informed them of my resignation. I asked if anyone was interested in Greek Yum Cha in the coming week so hopefully we can organise a get together soon before the girls have to start back for the year. I am hoping that before we make the move to the coast that I will attend a few Wednesday Night Bingo sessions at Matraville RSL with a few of the girls. We went several times last year & found it to be a lovely way to relax away fromt he pressures of work. It also gave us a laugh or two, especially when us “youngins” upset the elders by becoming “Ring-Ins”. As this happens at every Bingo I have ever been to, it’s easy to just shrug it off. We mean no harm & by all means no offence to those who attend on a regular basis. We are purely there to enjoy each others company & have a game or two of Bingo.

I have been placed on the roster this coming week to work Tuesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday. I will look forward to relaxing around the home tomorrow. Might play a game or two on the Wii or PS2 with Duff!
