Week 22, day one hundred and six

Sunday, 26 June 2011

Oh dear, time for a quick post before Week 22 slips headlong into Week 23 (that'll be in less than an hour). Bit of a hectic week on the work front, so I haven't even got any decent pics to show yet – well, not of the house-building, anyways. While there has been lots of Block action – tiling, gyprocking, bricklaying, painting, trimming, door-hanging, shed-finishing – you'll just have to wait until I give Matty a shove to get some visuals. It's really not the same without them, is it?

In the meantime, check out the most exciting snowfall since we moved to the Mountains, which seemed to come almost out of nowhere (and right on school pick-up, of course) on Tuesday, which was otherwise a fairly 'balmy' 11 degrees or so (it'd been MUCH colder before that!). This time the snow settled and was still there in the morning – I had to ring around to work out whether this much snow meant the long-awaited 'snow policy' was in place (ie kids stay home from school and preschool). Thankfully not!!

After ignoring the tramp for weeks, a snowfall seems like a good time to play on it...





Big, fat snowflakes! Wet, ain't they? Hadn't realised they'd be quite so wet...

We could be in old Blighty (or Denmark perhaps – Stephane the tiler reckons the letterbox is a Danish original, is that right, Anne and Maria?)



The snowman was all we had left by Wednesday arvo

Ah, the Block's first snow! Glad I didn't put those seedlings in...
