My youngest daughter has been in Brisbane since Christmas Eve. Majority of her stay has been at her sister's house but I managed to have a week with her. She returns home on 13th January after we have my parent's 50th WA party.
On Christmas Eve we had dinner at a local pub then went to Christmas Mass at church. Our family Christmas dinner was at my eldest daughter's house. Boxing Day we were with my parents in the afternoon. We were first greeted by the neighbour's cat at the gate. He is a cute young cat who loves to hang around with my cat. Our cats didn't want to know my grand daughter but she was very keen to chase them. What did you get for Christmas? I got a couple of DVD movies, a ceramic cup of BB8 (a robot character from the latest Star Wars movies), a Brisbane edition Monopoly board game, a plant in a little tea cup set and other little miscellaneous items.
Its already the fifth day into 2019! We had a quiet NYE by having our annual supper picnic at a nice park until 12:30am. Local fireworks went off at midnight for about ten minutes. On NYD we went to the cinema to see Aquaman. On Wednesday I had a day at home doing some spring cleaning while Rachel went to a waterpark with her sister and partner and two friends of theirs. Yesterday we went to Old Petrie Town. Its a mini village street up in olden days with afew houses (as businesses now) and a couple of small museums. On Friday nights they have local flea markets and free entertainment until 9pm. We came home with afew reading books. For $15 I got two books on 50 shades sequel, one on craft and three of the old Golden Books series. I used to read them when I was a child. This time I will read them to Krystal.
This month will be busy watching tennis on TV and returning back to a couple of craft workshops and bowling. My old league has been transferred to a different centre to start play on 13th January at but I am staying at the same centre I have played at for the past three seasons. The Manager at the centre has introduced a new league starting on 20th January but the starting time will change to 6:30pm.
Better go and start preparing my craft workshops ready for this month's meets. I have three weekend meets this month. One of them is scrapbooking only for 9 hours and preparing pages ready for upcoming meets intends to take time to prep. The lady who runs this group has changed the venue too! Apparently the old venue hall hire charges went up quite high!!
Have a great weekend!
