Annual Summer Holidays #02


   Well, it's been a full couple of weeks since Yurora NCYC '14 with the promised cricket, tennis, movie catch ups and a short but complicated list of tasks at home. They've been hard work for someone who has no aptitude for it but it's true that in the hours taken to prep and try to work at such things, you can't have a head full of work worries, jobs to do etc.

The garage is better, with lots of stuff taken to the dump to be repurposed
The storeroom concrete cracks are coated awaiting enough rain to patch any leftover holes
The 4 window frames are repainted with stain & varnish [plus brother Mark's repairs to one rotten bit]
The loungeroom ceiling watermark is covered and repainted [roof patched also by Mark
Wall mark patched and painted
One ceiling patch to finish tomorrow that somehow was originally painted a creamy colour, not ceiling white
Golf played

About seven films viewed, including 'One Chance' at the Openair, two or three to go!!
'Blue Jasmine'
'Gravity'
'Saving Mr Banks'
'The Secret Life of Walter Mitty'
'The Hobbit Desolation of Smaug'
'Hunger Games Catching Fire'

Some lap swimming but not much in painting time...
A little reading
A little new music and catching up on some old

BUT I'm not feeling rested, I still feel very weary from 2013, so I am glad the odd jobs will be done with tomorrow and I have a few days after school goes back to do, let's face it, not much!! Coffee, swimming, and enjoying some music!! Or maybe just sleeping... oh and getting two new tyres and a pink slip for the car!!
