So, I spent the weekend out in the country on The Estate (Mum's and Dad's new diggs). It was actually quite fun. I can now see myself living in the country when I'm older. Though, I'd still avoid anything larger than a lifestyle block like the plague (Speaking of which - I came home with a cold).I cooked heaps in my attempt to be multi-talented (ha!). But I burnt everything. So Dad taught me how to light a kick-arse fire and now I can light a better fire than my momma - mine has flames!
Half my clothes are covered in sheep shit, courtesy of the dog. But it was good fun. And that's kinda what you get when you roll around in a poo-ridden field.
And the gumboots! I spent a good half an hour in the warehouse trying to find a pair of Barbie boots that fit me. Unfortunately, they don't make them in womens' sizes let alone mens. The Smarties ones didn't fit either. Dad tried to talk me into boring, black, steel-toes ones. We compromised and got the bright red ones.
And yesterday I dropped the basket of firewood on my toes.
