Retail Therapy

Finally we actually had a week without mishap or major disease. Don't all pass out, but we also fitted in an ACTUAL date too. Dinner on Friday night, followed by a full weekend of family fune. Hmm that hasn't happened in a while, and trust me, it was GREAT!
Although temperatures have plummeted and we are now sleeping with 2 duvets, 1 blanket and full sleep wear (socks too), the air is crisp and the light down here is really magical. Just as long as we don't have to do anything at night when it's 2 degrees, I am quite happy. Oh and before you think we can't afford heating, unfortunately, it's our bedroom that falls under the freezer dial. The boys room and living area is quite ok!
One of our tasks this week was to get new printer ink and so we took ourselves off to the local Officeworks, where Jack was handed a rather snazzy kiddy trolley. Of course, he took to it like a duck to water and was seen marching up and down the aisles, analyzing calculators and adding a much needed safety scissors to his collection of 'purchases'. Needless to say, I was almost hysterical watching him. Now all they need to do is introduce these into supermarkets and life will just have become more fun!
