There has been a flurry of peircings in Megs group of friends. 4 have had their belly buttons pierced. Thankfully Meg thinks this is ridiculous. However, she has been doing wee drawings on different parts of her body to demonstrate the tattoos that she likes and where she would like them........when she is 16. This is not ridiculous, apparently. (Spook told her she would look like a gang leader with The Mongrel Mob)
I was cleaning a new build out at Mt Barker this morning, and the fresh snow looked good on the hills over in the direction of Cardrona.
When I got home from work, Finn was not around and had gone to Sam's and Meg was at work. She is tired tonight as the first week of school and work continues on into a whole day of work tomorrow. I reassured her that she would learn to take that in her stride and if she could rationalize the actual time scales, she would soon see that coming home and having her tea put on the table, putting her feet up and relaxing all night, she would cope. Once that first pay packet is in the bank, she will see things in a different light. And a long lie and easy day on Sunday is on the cards, as Spook and I will be working.
It's a couple of weeks since Finn has had a Friday night at Sam's, so it was very pleasant to have my glass of wine by the big fireside again. It took 2hrs to pick up Finn. Just too comfy. Spook will not be so comfy tomorrow night as he has to go to a surprise party dressed as an Indian. He has been thinking 'American Indian' and there is a part of me would like to leave him with this mis-apprehension and let him go in a loin cloth and war paint. However, it is a bit more Bollywood than Hollywood and I was thinking he could maybe combine his kilt and a turban and go as a Gurkha. Need to google Gurkha.
Finns has his rugby 7's in Alex tomorrow and we need to leave at 7.30am. then I have to come home and create some Indian dishes!!!!! Great.
grateful for;
samosa's and onion bahji's, if I could just find some. Hope Alex has a supermarket that has some, unlike the Wanaka shops.
