Another month

Posted on

Been another busy month here. Netball finished up for Meg last week, with her team coming third. We had an end of season party yesterday and they have vowed to play again next year.

Had the girls at the Eye specialist yesterday for check ups. Holly got the all clear to not have to wear her glasses anymore. She was so thrilled about that, but I think she’ll miss them sometimes because they have been part of her for so long. She loved choosing glamorous glasses and the positive attention they gave!
Meg has a stable prescription so she has to continue wearing her specs. The Amy had her turn. She hasn’t been checked before so this was going to be good or bad! She did the first part of the test well but then it was stated she would need drops in her eyes. She didn’t like that one little bit. I had to lay her on the ground and pin her arms down while the orthoptist had her in a head lock, and prized each eye open. It was horrible. She screamed the place down and was so upset. We went out to have a soothing babycino while the drops too effect. The bright sunshine hurt her eyes so she had to wear my sunnies.

She got the all clear though. No glasses for her! Relief.

I’ve been working hard on my laundry over the past few weeks. Justin put in this new flatpak laundry a few months ago and I was wondering what I could do with the wall behind it. Paint, tile, mosaic??? So I put it off for awhile till I was ready to commit, and then a got stuck into mosaic. This is the before shot….

and after painstakingly cutting up the tiles, gluing then on one by one, and then spending a day grouting, it is finished…..

Very happy with the outcome. I’m just going to seal it now and then it will be ready to go.

Kitchen will be done end of October. Still not cleaning the floor till then!!
