The Thursday with Toby sick

Hi,

I worked from home yesterday with Toby.  He's got a cough that is hurting his chest and a sore throat.  Seems to be a bit of it going around.  But he made headway into homework.  Might need to do some over the weekend though.

Evening was lovely

After the wild and chaotic weather on Wednesday, Thursday with its normal gusty conditions was heavenly in comparison.  Hahah.  And the evening was stunning.  My ride home was very pleasant really.

Mike got home early from Auckland and we assembled his birthday present in Toby's room (it is the biggest room!).  This is an American product and the assembly was nothing like all the Swedish things we have built over the years.  It was different - yet those Americans have got it sorted too.  But they have solved the problem by making it almost foolproof.  Blister packed labeled screws and washer. Stickers everywhere.  Disclaimers on every step.  In bold.  In CAPS.  In BOLD CAPS.

Mike's birthday present arrived and took us 90 minutes to assemble

Toby testing it out

Mike says "Let's make it go faster"

Toby becomes a blur!

The boys tested out the treadmill and declared it a winner.  Woot!  I have done well.

Went to bed and slept the sleep of the dead.

Weekend looks quiet.  Haircuts.  Mike is away tramping.

Have a great weekend.

Love,
Angela
