Lazy Sunday

 Today has been the laziest of days.  Mum stayed in her pyjamas til 11am, then had a shower and was only getting dressed at 1pm.  The sun was shining but as mum was on call she decided to stay home, keep warm and relax.  She watched World War Z - Brad Pitt looking older, but still fine and rather scary zombies, but a bit of a non story.  She would only rate it a 1/5.  This afternoon she watched the documentary Blackfish about Orca whales.  Really interesting, and terribly sad if you do care about animals.  Mum has never  been to a sea world to see such big whales perform and this documentary has made up her mind that she will never go to one in the future.  Worth watching.  5/5

And just to round out the weekend.  One of mums favourite pictures of me.  Looking cute and snuggly.

Lazy Sunday

We had a lazy Caturday, followed by an equally lazy Sunday.  Brunch was leftover pumpkin soup and garlic bread for mum, and crunchies for me.  Mum did go out for a walk today though, to make the most of the mild grey morning, before more anticipated bad weather came in this afternoon.  I have taken to claiming the couch, and mum likes that I have one end, and she has the other.  Nice of us to share.

Mum was glad to return home to spend the afternoon with me.  She watched a couple of programmes on the box, read a little of her book and took an hours nap.  She then made some sausages for her dinner, with a brown onion sauce, peas and mashed potatoes - good winters fare.  For me I had a feast and was quite happy.  Mum then did the dishes, and tidied up, before straightening the bed and heading for bed after watching Masterchef (kiwi version) and Offspring (an Aussie drama - the final - so sweet and sad at the same time).   Imbetween, she had the weekly chat to Gdad which always makes her smile.   A good start to another working week.

We hope you had a nice lazy Sunday too.

Lazy Sunday

Today mum stayed in her slippers all day.  She was lucky and didn't have to go into work tonight, all was quiet.  Two more nights to go, so fingers and toes crossed that she gets her beauty sleep.  It was cloudy all day so we camped inside all day watching shows on the box.

Our royal visitors headed off to the south of the south island today and visited Dunedin where they met with lots of junior rugby players and went jetboating.  The Duchess looked pretty in a teal blue dress and hat, although we do prefer her in her casual jeans and top.  We think that her formal wear seems a bit old fashioned and ages her somewhat.  Tonight it is only bubba G and his nanny sleeping across the road from us, as the young couple get a night away at a Queenstown resort.  Good on them - we think they deserve a wee break.

Hope you all are having a relaxing Sunday too.
