Had a night without the husband (no that is not why it is a happy day), and managed to get everything done really fast without any screaming from the sprat. Cn seemed pretty relaxed about it being him and me alone, and then still relaxed when I went out dancing. I am going with the thought that he is secure happy and well balanced, rather than the thought we are not important enough for him to care whether we are there or not... Nice to know I can do solo working motherhood briefly without freaking out as R may be in Waiouru for 3 weeks in September, so its important to know I will be able to cope.
Stunning view out the window now, glassy harbour, sunshine, no wind. When I moved here I thought it would be unremitting horribleness about the weather, now I believe Canterbury has worse weather than here.
The supervisor is actually reasonably happy with the progress, and is coming to Wellington in the next month so we can catch up and plan some more too.
Dancing was great, we are learning dances now with much more unusual steps, patterns and progressions, and it is great fun. Though hard when the brain shoots off home one dance before the rest of me, and the body is tired from a gym session. And I have decided to make a dress for dancing - we have the new dancers celebration in October, and I don't want to cook like I did at the Club annual.
Don't know when I will find the time however!
