Another Friday and Anastasia came to work with her daddy, so she could spend
Time with grandma
Unfortunately soon after she arrived our power went out, we were having extreme winds
Lots of trees were going down everywhere
We needed to keep the hours warm, so grandma lit the fire
Here we are playing in front of the fire with Trixie keeping Ana safe by positioning herself
Between the fire and Ana
Grandpa came to stay with us in the afternoon, so as to give grandma a bit of a rest
Thankfully the power came back on around three so they could sit and watch
ABC kids together
The winds have died down considerably and the sun has come out
But many homes in the area are still without power
Hopefully it comes back on soon
We are now starting a four day weekend
The Melbourne cup is on Tuesday so we have decided to give the boys the day off on Monday as well
We are exiting lockdown as of tomorrow
And I can start swimming again next week
Life is slowly starting to look normal again
Fingers crossed it stays like that
See ya xx
I thought of you in the cold then remembered you had the wood stove to boil the kettle and keep you warm. Little Ana is growing isn’t she
ReplyDeleteDo you think life will ever be the same- we can go back to most of our activities but I tend to think well be on edge and cagey about crowds and buildings for a while….or at least I will.
I actually went out today but I asked hubby to drive The roads were packed
DeleteI think the covid shot will be like the flu shot. We will have to have one every year
Thank goodness for your wood fire. And Trixie. She really is Ana's guardian angel. Ana is delightful.
ReplyDeleteHurrah for freedom, and summer weather I hope from now on. It's getting colder here and we will be lighting our fire soon
Still not warm here yet. But we are getting excited
DeleteIf your winter is anything like ours was. Expect cold and wet weather. Stock up on fire wood
I bet Grandma and Grandpa spoils her.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
We spoilt all our granddaughters
DeleteBut that’s a grandparents job
That shot of Ana and Trixie is just precious. Thank goodness for back up heating. Here's to the lockdown end being a permanent thing.
ReplyDeleteOh I really hope so
DeleteIt’s been a tough couple of years in Melbourne
