Darned pesky horrible things, I could say I have been eradicating nits for the last 5 months and it would be almost true......another note home from school and another round of combing, conditioning and cutting. Will it ever end, will we be the only OAP's in the nursing home with nits? Well me probably as lee seems to be immune to them, probably all the chemicals his skin had absorbed over the years.
Well no point in trying to catch up with everything but the main things are Elliot is now at Mindarie Senior College and likes it although he hardly sees any of his old DC mates anymore which is sad. He is still mad on squash and yearns and longs for decent clobber to pose in. Gave in and got him new trainers yesterday, got Lee some too - both the same - 2prs for $100 so not bad, don't think they are impressed at the thought of having matching footwear LOL.
William has discovered scooting and of course it is costing a small country but at least he is out and about with his mates which is good and normal. School work is an unknown entity and I must make the effort to catch up with his teacher and find out how (badly) he is doing. He is still playing squash and doing really well for his age and had 2 wins, a runner up and a plate award in the tournaments he has been in so far this year. We might be going to Geraldton in July for the state junior championships.
Lees mate Chris (Chris Hayton) is here from Uk for a couple of weeks holiday with his family so Lee is enjoying catching up with him. Weather has been mixed for them but what can you expect for winter.
Oscar is still a gem, started swimming lessons and has moved up to the second class after a couple of weeks so very proud. Speech is coming on, did really well at his recent sessions with natalie and seemed to have master the S thing. I still can't imagine him ever talking normally - his sentences are probably that of a 3 year old. He got a merit certificate at school last Friday for remembering to take pictures of transport in for the scrapbook. Why is it my kids get certificates for lame things like being good at cricket - why can't they get one for just being a genius - am I being a bit greedy here LOL.
And me, well same old same old., still wondering what I can be when I grow up! oohh some exciting news though, me and liz are going to Adelaide in Sept, yes just before we go to UK, bad planning and would only happen to me but we are off to see Powderfinger. Should be a laffff, spending our time wandering around all the hippy places going ooooohhh, ahhhhh I like that. We have such similar tastes in accessories and stuff it's worrying!!!
And a sad note to end on, Lees grandpa passed away at the end of April. He had been ill but it was still really unexpected and shook us all. :(
