W'apow mu e, 

 

Gilbert took cupcakes today for his teacher's birthday.  His teacher wasn't there though; he was sick and in the hospital.  The class enjoyed the cupcakes anyway.


Joe went into town this morning.  He went to the port to get some used motor oil; he used that to paint the fence posts to keep the termites away.  


I did some more practicing on the keyboard in between my normal duties.  The power went off for a couple hours this afternoon.  We had load shedding last night.  We seem to be back on the every other night schedule again.

The kids helped wash the car after school.  Then, they all worked in the "farm" area.  They got all the spots for the fence posts marked and got some of the holes dug.


I made pizza for supper.  We saw a baked potato pizza on a cooking show the other day.  So, I tried it tonight.  It was very good.  I used sour cream and ranch dressing mix for the "sauce."  Then, I put on some baked potato pieces and things that go on a baked potato on top of that.  It was very good.


Bonnie was the only one with homework tonight.  She had a page of letters and a page of numbers to write.


Nantsew yie!
