Not only that, it was a long weekend for which we had no plans at all. A rare and unusual event!
And we haven't done all that much.
We went out to the Delacombe shops on Friday, to visit the butcher, the fruit and veg shop and the supermarket.
We went to Lake Wendouree yesterday morning to visit the farmers' market
We have sorted out the carrot tub and potted on some cabbage and cauliflower seedlings
We dropped down to our place to see how it was getting on without us.
I had an online Japanese lesson
We have played with the dogs and kept them fed, watered and entertained.
We have taken things slowly and gently and done no rushing about.
So far it's been lovely!
I did spend the better part of a morning trying to unblock Lindsey and Ian's Dyson vacuum cleaner - with no success. I think I know where the blockage is but I can't get to it. I had more success unblocking their Dyson dust buster but it took ages. I understand that Dysons aren't supposed to block up but I can't say that that has been my experience at all. And when they do block up you often need to take them apart with a screwdriver to fix it. I am emphatically not taking Lindsey and Ian's expensive vacuum cleaner apart with screwdriver!!!!! We ended up bringing our not-very-expensive Vax up from our place and using that. We bought it when we moved into Tani no uchi so we've only had it three months but so far it hasn't got blocked. If it does I don't think we will need a screwdriver to fix it.
My plan for today and tomorrow is to be relatively lazy, to prepare meals for the coming week, to take advantage of the sunshine, to potter and meander.
So nice to have a few days in which there is nothing very much to do.
