Monday Monday..

Today was not just an ordinary Monday.....

It is the Monday after our visitors left...

It is the first Monday of two weeks "in school" swim lessons.....

Need I say more....

It is winter......how am I supposed to know where the goggles are or the rash shirt or the bathers for that matter......

We did find them....packed the spare underwear, towel, found goggles and plastic bag to house the wet clothes...

Walking up to the classroom..."Fraser do you have your bathers on???"

Look of horror..."NO do you have them mum?"  what the!

Not wanting to do the whole lesson teaching thing first thing in the morning...I trot back home and gather bathers.....

Remembering that none of his clothing is labeled and most likely to be lost in the flurry of year three boys changing after swim lesson... quickly mark all his clothing with his initials...

Being a home day for me I took the opportunity to wander over to the aquatic centre to watch his lesson....

Upon arrival I am told it will be $ 1.80 to enter for the half hour lesson and sit on a seat...usually a wet one.....what's with that...clearly I was not going to be using the facilities... when did a parent ducking in to watch an in school time lesson warrant payment....

well I'll be at work the rest of the week...so let's hope we are all a bit more organised tomorrow as there will be no trotting home to collect forgotten items....

Oh and let's not mention the wet washing every night that needs drying for the next day ...
