I spent the weekend with Miss18 in Brisbane, buying furniture for her place. And making furniture. And trying (unsuccessfully) to set up her new PC.
It was full. It was busy.
And I don’t regret a minute of it.
Because time is all we have to give each other. Our company. Our selves.
Our most precious gift, that.
Time.
I hope you are aware of yours this coming week, dear Reader!

And far too scattered for a proper post this week.
Sorry, dear Reader. And thanks for understanding.

It was bound to happen at some point, yes?
At least, being librarian, I have books to keep me company when I’m not sleeping…
See you next week, dear Reader…

This coming week is gonna be HUGE… meaning there’s no time to blog today 🙁
Here’s wishing you the best of weeks, dear Reader!
My day today:
Miss20’s first time driving my beautiful VW beetle. It’s a 51 year old car and she wasn’t expecting it to be so primitive. She also learned what power steering is, by discovering what driving is like without any!
Then it was Master16’s turn in our usual kid-learning-to-drive car; and then Miss17 for the rest of the afternoon.
I feel well and truly driven today!!!

But that’s because last Sunday I was at work, after a trip to Bunnings which was after church which was after music practice for church. And Saturday was work, then a friend’s fundraising high tea then my mother in law’s 80th then more time with my parents, after entertaining our neighbours on Friday night. Phew!
This weekend: simpler. My Dad’s 85th birthday lunch yesterday then shopping with my eldest. Today was church then driving with my youngest and now washing the dogs. But before church? This;
What a way to start the morning, huh?
I hope you’ve had beautiful weeks / weekends too, dear Reader!

I’m sitting in some.
I’m enjoying it.
Considering Queensland is known as ‘the Sunshine State’ and my district is named ‘the Sunshine Coast’ you’d think there’d be a lot of it.
But no, not this year.
We’re the final weekend in May and I think I can count on one hand the number of rain-free weekends we’ve had. But this weekend? Right now?
Loving it!
Here’s hoping the weather is being beautiful for you too, dear Reader!
PS Twelfth Night was AMAZING!!!
It’s interesting, how people who are not me, view things completely differently to how I view them! Well, I think so, anyway.
Case in point:
Have a viewpoint-full week yourself, dear Reader!

Posted afterwards due to internet coverage, but this is what happened this week:
Here’s hoping you had just as stunning a week in your happy place too 🙂

It’s 8am Sunday. I’m heading to the beach with Hubby and my dog Kiya. Joining us is Rex, Hubby’s brand new German Shepherd, who became part of our family at 9pm last night after Hubby drove a 14 hour round trip to collect him.
He was advertised as a 22-month old male. He’s as large as Aksel was when he passed away last year… but judging by his paw size and the fact he doesn’t lift his leg yet, I’d hazard a guess that he’s significantly younger than that! But he seems to be bonding with Kiya, and he’s also placid and past that typical puppy chew-everything-in-sight age, which is also brilliant.
And speaking of late nights, once the dogs had been successfully introduced to each other, I headed to the airport, to collect my younger brother Rhys whose flight arrived at 11.08pm. The last time he was in Australia was August 2014!
So: late night and a big day. Lucky there’s just 3 weeks left of school before holidays!
Have a great week, dear Reader 🙂
