tea and a storm

Last night I made myself some lovley apricot peach loose leaf tea and as i sat down i poored it all over me. freshly boiled hot hot water! Since i was having a conversation with Chris i couldn't just rip of my clothes... so i put down my tea and ran up to the bathroom where i put the water on as cold as possible and jumped in the shower. It hurt lots but it was ok. I put on a loose t shirt and some tights and went back downstairs to make some more tea... since the first cup didn't get drunk... it got poored:) So this mornign i have lovley red patterns down my chest and stomach... but no blisters:) so we're all ok... I'm just wearing some looser fitting clothing for the time being... goodthing its a rainy stormy day that does not require the wearing of a bathing suit because i think it would look quite funny!

last night in addition to my burn I also had my first night of little sleep here. Maybe it was due to the fact that i had a "nothing" day with movies, reading and a short run... or maybe it was due to the crazy storm. It rained lots and lots and the wind was intense. It was humid so sleeping with my windows all shut did not seem like a good plan... so i left them open and got a first hand experience of the wind flowing through my room. It was nice, but a little difficult to sleep throught. Getting up this morning was difficult but now I just finished task one of the day (organize the kids wardrobe) I like any organization or house keeping tasks.

One less kid is weird. David started school again yesterday. So now its just the girls at home because Chris is also back at work. Weird. Its nice having things calm down alittle but also a little boring at times.

Less than three weeks till YWAM. Yeah... I can't wait. It will be wierd to create another routine and make another place into my temporary home but i'm excited for the challenge and can't wait to start learning again. I want to sit down with a lovley new notebook and a pretty pen and take notes while i listen to a wise person lecture to my classmates and I. I'm excited to say the least. I'm also excited to put my lap top to better use (no more just messaging, blogging, and watching movies... its time for hard work! )

summers coming to and end! crazy
