A Series Of Events
Can't shut me up now eh? It's been a busy day and I am exhausted.
The day started normally enough, I got up and got myself ready to take Ab to school, twin sdecided to sleep in a bit longer so I quickly fixed the hem on Ab's pinafore before heading to the kitchen to start breakfast, I opened up the blind to let the light in and found this...
Yes, our patio was filling fast with water from an unknown source! I went outside and paddled about and found that the neighbours had decided to drain their pool..straight into our back garden..idiots! It was coming in from under the fence at a very fast rate and was deep enough to cover the tops of my feet. Not sure how much damage they may have done to our pavers yet, I have a feeling it has washed out the sand from underneath them but will have to wait for the back area to dry out a bit more first. Needless to say the neighbours had me on their doorstep at 7.30am in not the best mood (but I was everso polite about it!)
After dropping Abs at school G, the twins and I headed down to the shops to pick up a few bits and pieces, Joe has outgrown his jeans so we picked him up some new ones and some new jammies! We bought Ab a shirt to wear for Sports Day this week, and some cute denim capri pants..she's outgrowing so much of her stuff lately too.
I had a great surprise shortly after arriving home when a delivery van pulled up and my new 19" LCD monitor was handed over. I was pretty gobsmacked as we only ordered it from dstore.com.au on Sunday around midday, and at 8am this morning I got the email to say it had begun delivery..and by 11.45am it was here!! Talk about speedy, and I am very happy with it. I can now also proudly show off the "Poppy Monkey Design Studio" hopefully in the next day I will have moved everything I need over to the other PC (well G will) and I will be up and running!
Yeah yeah I know, it needs a few cool knick-knacks but am still searching for just the right items, I do have my Mojo Jojo monkey there though!

You should also post a pic of the state you left the other desk in before you got your new one ;-)
That's just crazy about the flooding?! How frustrating!
Ooooh, the new 'studio' looks great, and you will LOVE your new monitor!
Idiot neighbours!!

Pooey on the flooding and YAY YAY YAY YAY for you on the monitor!
