Lockdown day 48

Woke up to a decorated house full of balloons and love! Red carpet and all. The homemade gifts my favorite, jars of love notes, a box of goodies made by holly, Harry made me a body scrub and Lucy a box of breath mints! A close second was the cocktail making set including martini glasses!

Went for a big walk, had a delicious cheese platter lunch and board games! I’m a very happy Mama and feeling loved ... as always .

Oh and Andrew was swabbed for corona! Due to a very mild sore throat. Fingers crossed it’s negative!

Lockdown day 47

A cold and rainy day today. Andrew and the kids went out to the shops for Mother’s Day, I stayed home and cleaned and then spent the the rest of the day reading! Bliss! 

Lockdown day 46

More bins to clean. Today a neighbor left a lovely thank you card and a $6 tip for cleaning their bin yesterday. The kids door knocked the neighbors and have 1 booking so far for next Thursday. Harry and Luce rode bikes for most of the afternoon.

Lockdown day 45

Today a small business was born in isolation. Holly Harry and Lucy’s Bin Cleaning business. Open 2 days a week, bin day and the day after. They door knocked about 15 houses this afternoon and scored 3 jobs. $15 made! They worked pretty hard for the money and scrubbed like mad men making them gleam! Very proud Mama!

Lockdown day 44

No photos today! 

Harry went for another early morning ride with Andrew. He then did about 6 big laps of the block by himself, with us and with Holly. He is loving the freedom of riding around the neighborhood. 

Lucy and I ducked down to Kmart to get her some ugg boots. We made bread and had a yummy feast for lunch.Harry finished his work by 10.30!!!!!!!! Absolute record!!!

Lockdown day 43

Another sunny day, afternoon spent at the park.

Lockdown day 42

Lucy made this for herself for breakfast this morning, waffles, yogurt, honey and banana, the things you can make with no morning rush. 

Today Harry resisted homeschooling - not fun. He can be beyond stubborn sometimes. 

We went for a big walk/ride later this afternoon to “cool” off after a tough day. 

And some pix of Hollys homeschooling set up today! 

Lockdown day 41

A lazy Sunday

Lockdown day 40

Lazy day, Andrew bid on a house on an online auction for day, went to Costco and bought a Dyson ... not at costco. Had a lovely 2 hour zoom with the hills tonight, miss them so much.

Lockdown day 39

Dr Lucy did heart surgery and then dental surgery! Harry made another fort under the dining table where we played chess ... he beat me 3-0! Getting good!

Holly didn’t cope too well today, finding it very hard to concentrate on work with the noise and isn’t sleeping too well. Lots of cuddles today.

Lockdown day 38

More baking!
