In my 'payroll person' mind, Week 2 would be sometime in April. But it's week two in the 4-week count-down towards August 27th when we get on the plane to Mexico.
Have been spending a bit more time with Michelle (me shell). I have introduced a few fun things, like games, a travel scrabble and some russian game (not russian roulette!) that someone gave me for christmas. Unfortunately the instructions are in russian, but three dice and diagrams on a pad - how hard can it be? Michelle is getting quite heavy now and I have taken to walking around the house with her on my back just to get used to the weight. I have sent a few things flying by turning round suddenly, but most of the valuable things have been put up in the loft so it doesn't matter too much.
Had a minor upset this week when water started dripping from a light fitting downstairs. Turned out to be from under the bath where the calking had failed to do it's job. Brilliant timing, but DIY Man (Jon) was ready with his calking gun and the need for expensive and destructive plumbing work was averted.
Feeling nervous, but no regrets yet. Those turtles are gonna get saved whether they like it or not, because we are on our way!
