Weekend ends with Deb Practise

Tom is partnering a girl at the school’s deb ball on Friday night. The parents had to go to deb practise to learn the dance they do with their parent. It’s a long time since I did my deb, so I was glad to have an opportunity to refresh the steps.

I stood at the back of the hall watching all these grown up teens. I had a bunch of them in year 7. They are great kids and have grown up well. It’s quite amazing the change since they were at our campus 3 years ago.

I loved having Jane on Friday night. I was delighted that her daughter Ricki was there too. I haven’t spent time with Ricki like that for ages. She is a great young woman. Yesterday we went for a walk and Sam is walking so well he pushed Tom in the wheelchair for a little while. It was quite amusing. I was sad to see them go.

Waiting for Jane

And Sam of course. My friend Jane lives in WA and she has been on a holiday to Jindabyne and is passing through tonight on her way to Melbourne. I am so excited to see her. I have even tidied my house!

Normally at this time of the term – one week to go – I am too tired to lift a finger. I need my friends to visit more often so I have my home how I like it.

I’ve brought my beautiful tulips home from work. Unfortunately two blossoms blew off in the wind on the way to the car but hey!
