“It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?”
Good Morning World... Sun 24th, 7.18, Blue sky with a fab Nor'west cloud pattern, 9dg with a high of 22dg. We have been here in Wanaka for two weeks... how time just flies. This morning I am on the " Church Run"... ready to present myself at the door of the villa at 9am and then Mum and I are scootering down to church. Gosh what a good girl I am. Last night was out at Winsloe's new home for a combination moving in and leaving for Europe party... what a fab group of people many of whom were a new aquaintence for me... as I knew I was on Church run early I was on my best behaviour, but lordy you should have seen the dessert table... I went twice!! The last two days have been spent walking in and out of town, backwards and forwards to the Villa in brilliant sunshine, there is nothing nicer than feeling the sun on your shoulders. A good test drive yesterday after lunch with Mum and the scooter on the back road to the main road with no real footpath crossings.. I feel better about that. Mum is a delight when we do footpath letdowns... it is either dead stop in the middle or too much speed. Practise practise, I say it, she knows it.. does she... does she like hell. We left her to make her own way home unsupervised, and we went back to our house on the other side of town. By the fourth telephone call to check that she had arrived, with each successive voice message getting more miffy and Mel and I debating a trip in the car to find her, she finally made contact ... had been visiting on the way home!! Hector Heathcote breathe in breathe out!! As a mature daughter, spending time with an ageing Mother, I wish someone had printed a hand book on how to do it !! Bless all our little old people. 😇
An afternoon with the big girls..
