Saturday Slow Down

It feels like it's been forever since I opened my computer!  I have been on Outreach in Cairns for the last week and Saturday was just about catching up!  I am now watching the Olympic games and loving it!  I love the idea of the games.  I love that the torch is lit the same way as it was in 776 BC, although I imagine finding a priestess of Apollo is likely a little harder to find, esp a virgin one!  It lasted a thousand years then and it would be lovely to see it last that long again.  The games have already survived world wars, depressions, pandemics, cold wars and the egos of thousands of elite athletes! I get a little annoyed by the coverage by the TV channels but I guess that they play to the majority and I have rarely been in there!  At least I can go to a friend's house (She has Foxtel) and they have eight channels playing different Olympic coverage so I might be able to see some waterpolo and not have to only watch beach volleyball and swimming!

Levi is not going to outgrow asthma this winter.  We dodged it a little by returning to summer for a big chunk but it is back in full force now!  It is hard when he is sick and I am on Outreach, because his options for staying home are limited.  I can only listen to him cough on the end of the phone and hope he does ok at school.  Naturally he survived!  I still feel bad.

Today is a quiet one.  We will do little boring things like shopping for the week and homework.  At least tonight, we get to go to Sizzler with friends!
