Just for Auntie Cas!

Mom says, 'Auntie Cas is overseas @ the moment and everyday she e-
mails and asks what we did. Unfortunately, this is an unusual
holiday ... it is more like a home away from home ... BUT being with
ZaZ 24/7, no work, no school, very little time limits, no need to go
into kitchen or shopping for groceries ... it is pretty much ideal,
quite unrealistic and really nice! ON the other hand ... each day sort
of flows into the next, and I sort of forget what we did each day ...
SO - as much as possible ... 'Just for Auntie Cas' (and me and ZaZ
when she is 21 and reads all this) ... Ok - so going from present -
Today - Woke-up @ 9:30, Ally slept here and ZaZ and ally had been
playing with Granny Rona since 8am. When I came downstairs, they were
pretending they were @ at a restaurant eating their muesli and
youghurt. Then it was TWO hours in the swimming pool, jumping in,
swimming widths underwater, ZaZ new thing - jumping off step, turning
in a circle underwater and back onto step. ZaZ mimed putting on
glasses into Ally so that she could spit or splash and Ally would not
get it in her eyes. BUT - Ally was not into the pretend glasses thing.
Romy arrived @ 11 and swam for an hour, pretending to be the swimming
teacher. Then upstairs in the midday sun, relaxing on bed watching ZaZ
school concert, Ally fell asleep. Ally got fetched. Got back into pool
for another hour. HUGE wind came-up. Inside. Shower - off to Aqua for
lunch. I sat down with artichokes and was eating them with my fingers.
Rona walked up and shouted at me. 5 minutes later, ZaZ says, 'Granny
Rona said - you weren't taught to eat like that with a very cross
face!' ... My mom and I were hysterical with laughter. There was SUCH
a wind - that we went to Bondi Junction. Romy tried on some clothes
for a birthday present, I got my camera fixed. Left ZaZ new dress at
centre (luckily Australians are trusting and my dress is there). Came
home ... ZaZ watched her Cinderella DVD from Peach (sweet), bath, wash
hair, talk to Dad on Skype, Dad read books ... ZaZ said, 'Dad I WISH
you were in Australis' and kept kissing Phil on the mouth (aka my
computer screen)... ZaZ in bed ... Bern and I Ricepot Thai Green
Curry .. YUM! Computer! Gossip Girl. Bed!
Now my fingers too sore to type anything else!
