Sunday stuff

• It’s raining.
• My dirty car is in the rain in the hope that some dirt will be rained off.
• My son is really annoying me today.
• My son lost his second front tooth today. We were at the market and a stall holder we know pulled it out for him. Everyone up to that point had been commenting on it. The tooth fairy will NOT forget this time.
• I’ve used the slow cooker to cook my first roast (in the slow cooker that is).
• I forgot to buy cucumber at the market today so our salad is cucumberless.
• We went to check out some roadworks today. It might be the only chance we get to walk on this road (see photos above).
• I was going to garden today but the rain prevented me.
• The rain also was a good excuse not to walk the dog.
• I like my Sunday sleep-in but it’s a waste of a couple of hours I could always use on a Sunday.
• I had to take the rained on clothes off the line and hang them up inside.
• I shouldn’t complain about the rain, it might help fill up Torrens lake and it saves me watering on my watering day.

What’s your Sunday stuff? You could write a post and link back here where I can update this post with others’ Sunday stuffs, or just leave a comment.

First baby tooth gone

Today marked a momentous occasion in the JC household. JJ finally lost his first tooth. He’s nearly seven and a half and is the last of his classmates to have reached this milestone.

It’s been loose for some time and this morning it was at a right angle to where it was supposed to be and I knew it wouldn’t take long.

He was eating popcorn at school today and out it came then. It’s now home so maybe the tooth fairy might visit here, although JJ said he doesn’t believe in the tooth fairy. He’d like some cash though. Dilemma!

Has the tooth fairy visited your household? It never did mine as a kid.
