Rain, rain, rain

Pooh, it’s been rain­ing today.
Busy day. Up late, Jan and Jamie went to a local Spring Fare. Jan was help­ing out on the chocol­ate stall run by Jamie’s Brownie troop.
I stayed at home pay­ing bills and deal­ing with the last couple of days mail.

We lost our inter­net con­nec­tion at lunch time ! Thanks NTL!

Lunch, then off to dan­cing les­sons for Jamie. Only I couldn’t park in the school car park as there was a big church ser­vice on (the bishop was com­ing). A little bit of shop­ping, col­lect Jamie and back home. Did some tidy­ing and cleaning.

The cable modem came back on at some point this afternoon.

Steve and KIm came round with Megan. Appar­ently Megan is hav­ing a sleep over with Jamie (the first I’d heard of it!). We’ll see how it goes. The last two times she’s come for a sleep over, she’s wanted to go home about an hour after going to bed!

Megan said a funny thing at one point this after­noon. She asked if she could use the com­puter and go on the inter­net. I said yes of course. She then asked what ‘dot coms’ we had! “Have you got the same ones as me?” she asked. I should point out that she is only five.

Steve was going on about the ‘fact’ that Nasa never actu­ally sent a man to the moon. He’s been hunt­ing round the web and found more ‘evid­ence’! He went off with Kim to watch a big foot­ball match on cable (Manchester United versus some other team).

The girls are in bed now and so far Megan hasn’t asked to go home. Fin­gers crossed.

Later

Heat!

Whew! Another hot day at work today.
It reached 84 degrees Far­en­heit in my part of the office.
Not quite as bad as yes­ter­day when it reached 88.7 degrees Far­en­heit!
It was cooler to go out­side for a smoke and stand in the sun!
