meaningless insights

Mood: happy
Listening to: the silence of the washing machine - finished its cycle! YUCK more jobs!

Well, I was in the deepest sleep. The man was knocking at the door (to deliver our new lounge) and I did not hear it. Hey, that is not me! My son woke me up. I got up and the world was all blurry.

It was weird, I just could not wipe the sleepiness of my reality. I could hardly understand what the delivery guy was saying. Then I realised I was talking to him with just a t-shirt on. Oh and, of course, a serious case of bed hair! I quickly raced to the mirror and was aghast at how terribly asleep I looked.

Sometimes my husband gets up and it takes him a while to shake of the 'sleep', but I usually SNAP on and get moving, as I am always in a hurry!!!

 

Anyway, I have done some dreadfully boring cleaning as I have to race up to my Mum's place. Mum is minding my grandmother, who recently went blind. She is about 94 and she is getting very difficult. I am going to take control of the situation. Nanny gets very panicy and frightend and anxious about life. So I am going up to try and inject some fun and laughter!

 

I know she hates being alive. She says often "you can live too long, you know" I feel for her. All of her friends are dead. Her husband died years ago, but we kinda rejoiced about that. My mother was sooo excited that finally Nanny could have a life of her own.  Where she could have some fun and control her own reality.

 

My darling little 6 yr old has taken a keen interest in cooking. So this morning, after his swimming lesson, we went to buy the ingredients to make 'garlic bread'. It is sooooo nice to see a bloke in a kitchen!! He loves it! So he ate his bread and suggested that next Saturday - our cooking day - that he makes a cake. So that is our next project.

 

My CV is not going too well. It looks like day 2 of this weekend is going to extrordinarily hectic.
