Preparations 

Short day at work and met up with a dear old friend for a quick 30-min lunch. She was very busy today but managed to take a break to see me. And we had a really nice chat – just what we both needed, I think.

Stopped to pick up some groceries on the way home and baked a couple of cheese pies to serve with the cray fish on Friday. Also made dinner and started on a few other preparations. Tonight we went to shop the last couple of things and tomorrow night we will tidy up the house.

It is so strange to not have my youngest around. I miss him but I am not worried about him. I’m sure he is fine and having a great time. Or at least I hope so. He deserves it so well.
