Stirring up dust
We had a family lunch at my mother-in-law’s house yesterday. BIL #2, who lives at the house with his wife, brought home a new desktop computer on Friday but hasn’t set it up because he doesn’t have a desk or table for it. So the Scientist offered an old metal one at our house to use and he is going to come to pick it up today. The difficulty of this offer was that the desk was pretty much buried under all sorts of stuff that had been stored in the same area. The Scientist has spent the last couple hours unearthing forgotten items, much of it junk. But he did get it cleared out and the desk has been removed. Now he’s in the process of putting it all back. Actually, much of it has been transferred to our recycle bin, and some has been thrown out. So the volume is considerably smaller. It should look a lot tidier once he is complete. I had to leave due to the massive amount of dust floating around.

End of term
Although we are homeschooling, we still follow the local public school calendar. Today is the last day of the first term so we are now at loose ends for a couple weeks. The irony is that during the holidays, all the places we might visit are very crowded so we tend to avoid them. I suspect we will get together with our closest friends for a picnic on one of the days but nothing much else is planned aside from one speech appointment for Lego Lover next Thursday.
