A day off at last! Friday is my 'supply teaching' day and I wasn't called for, so am catching up at home. I work Monday through to Thursday at the tennis club and invariably arrive back home at 7pm. Jeff is up at 5am to get to work in Noosa by 6.30am so we're literally seeing each other for an hour or so in the evening during the week and then collapse in bed at 9pm! Weekends are good though although Oli seems to be playing EVERY weekend at the moment in some tournament or another... he battled through the school trials a couple of weeks ago and is now representing the region next Wednesday. He does love it, so we don't mind the driving around really. He's now made firm friends with a couple of lads at school and seems very settled which is great. We are still undecided on where he's off to school next year for his high school years. Wherever it is, we need to be settled for at least the next 5 years and work is still on a casual basis for both of us. Hey Ho... we'll get there.
Winter now. Brrrr.... it's around 7 degrees at night and low 20s during the day. Bloomin' nippy first thing and there's no heating at all in the bungalow. We had to buy a portable oil heater and electric blankets!! Lovely walking weather though and we still get out every weekend. It's a long weekend this weekend too so we're off to Noosa for a festival: should be fun!
p.s. Oli is now officially taller than Jeff...
