Pudda helping me with my work!!!! How cute is that? Almost as cute as Cooper, Joel and Kelly's dog, swimming in the pool last night. I have never seen a dog willingly jump into a pool and paddle around! It was a sight to see. Cooper would stand on the edge of the pool, lean back on his haunches and launch himself into the pool, travelling about half way down it as he did, landing with an almighty splash. He'd paddle around, rest on the ledge and then haul himself out and do it all again. This went on for nearly half an hour!
There is always something happening, or someone coming or going, at M & D's. Mark is at uni now and so home a couple of days a week, Megs is never at school (unlike last year where she went some of the time! :) ) And of course Joel only works when he feels like so often drops in during the day. This was Em heading out to work yesterday - apparently she really wasn't going to a gentlemans club, and instead spent the day promoting Pepsi Max to the masses!
the kitchen and dining table at Mum and Dad's - note the cat on the chair at the table!
Home for the next few weeks. Quite a coming full circle experience as the room I'm staying in at Mum and Dad's now is the room that was my bedroom in my early twenties.
a final stop at the Canadian institution 'Timmy's' for one last extra large green tea before leaving Orangeville for the drive to the airport.
my office the day before leaving - it was a mad rush to finalise all the papers and resources I'd need for teaching (why is it that, knowing a trip has been planned for six months, one still leaves EVERYTHING to the last minute?!)
