The Weekend .. .. ..

Golly Gosh this 'new' washing machine is certainly getting a work out. I've washed every day since I got it. I swear the boys hide their dirty clothes (Mark included) and only bring them out once I have done a load of washing or have emptied the clothes baskets. Oh well guess that will never change. I tell you what though the washing machine washes really well. I'm impressed and grateful that we got such a good bargain!

We've spent a quiet weekend at home. Not doing all that much but I think we need weekends like this. It was nice to actually stay home and read the paper, surf a bit, play games and just relax. The boys even managed to watch tv for a bit rather than just play the play station or be on the computer. It made a pleasant change for them too I think because they watched a couple of good movies. I still try and get them to go outside and ride their bikes but they never seem to be interested. The lazy little rascals!!

Tomorrow we take Trip to the vets to get his stitches out. He's hardly been moving about at all except for today. He's been keeping himself hidden away in the carry case. Mainly to keep away from Saqarra and the boys I think. Saqarra can be such an annoying thing when she wants to be and we all know that Trip just wants to be left alone. Today was the first time Trip didn't spend all day in the carry case and it was the first time since we've brought him home that he wanted to go outside. Not that we let him though, he is way too vulnerable to go outdoors again. He still isn't even attempting to put any weight on his leg. And seeing him run on two legs surely is a sight to see. He is amazing!
