Today came and went very quickly. School was fine, with a bit of catching up to do from last week. I’m glad it was Caleb that had to fit in a bit of extra work and not Aaron, as that could have taken a very long time! Steve and Maureen were in the schoolroom for a large part of the morning, marking out chalk lines on the floor where the new kitchenette needs to be installed. Steve is going to be ordering the flat-pack stuff from the UK quite soon so that it can get on the ship when it goes up there in April. Things are happening, just slowly. After beading, I had to go to town quickly, mainly looking for onions, which are already sold out in most places. The Star hasn’t had theirs yet, so I’ll have to keep checking back. Supper was pork chops, mashed potato and carrots, which was a surprisingly non-torturous affair as far as the boys were concerned.
Tomorrow in school we have ‘show and tell’. This is a new concept for us, so I explained it today, and tomorrow they have to produce something to show the class (i.e. me and the other brother), and then discuss it. I’m not sure what they’ve come up with, but I have a fairly good idea that it’s going to be obscure and completely irrelevant to anything that they actually do, and they’re not going to have anything to say about it! Perhaps it’s a bit tricky at the moment as they don’t have any particular hobbies.
