 My shoulder is on the way to its former self- slowly, but still! During those last days I haven't been able to disrobe the usual way but had to resort to the mannish way of getting rid of my sweaters. That's why I know now why outer garments of females always have to get turned inside out (outside in) before washing, or one will have to wrestle a wet garment into the right shape before hanging it on the drying rack. Men do not have this problem. Now I wonder who showed my sons how to mannishly handle a sweater! Definitely not me, because I am female. And husband mine has not been seen undressing the boys that often...
Tonight I woke at 2:30 and decided to get up half an hour early. Daughter did the same, we had two coffees each, did crossword puzzles then de-iced the car and were off. It's peaceful driving in the dark and watching the first Christmas trees lit in the front yards. I love this time of the year, even at three thirty in the morning! Today we had the boys for an overnight stay. Husband mine picked their mummy up then went for the two then brought mummy to the Flix Bus station. It takes six hours to Venice by bus and eleven by train, because the route for the train is way longer now since the Tauerntunnel got closed because of repair work!
The afternoon got spent with crafting. Cassian helped me with the new, improved Wichteltür. Flavius was allowed to apply the glue only. The younger of the two is a very talented saboteur of craftwork! It did not turn out exactly the way I wanted, but the boys were happy. After painting and glueing hubby brought the Playmobil down from the closet, one of the few places the grandchildren save for Oscar aren't able to reach. Neither hubby nor I are interested to clear Playmobil away twice or thrice a week! Worst job ever!
This night will be challenging- it's the third early shift in a row, but the first with Cassian in the guestbed in the studio and hubby and Flavius down in the guestroom. Daughter suggested to wake me personally instead of me setting the alarm on my mobile, which surely would rouse the boy and make him wander down to his brother, thusly waking the younger terror of the two, too.
Tomorrow grandsons and I will tackle the lanterns on the sideboard. Three of them will get refashioned. Another project which will keep Cassian and his brother occupied. Because after kindergarten they will be with us again. I hope that husband mine will not dream of keeping them overnight for a second time!
