Lazy Sunday

It was my turn for the coveted lie in this morning, but Mr Messy had to come and wake me up so that he could go to the local shop, and get sausages and eggs (we'd run out!!) to make a traditional English Breakfast for the Host student guest, and everyone else of course. Unfortunately I must have fallen straight back to sleep and only woke up again when I heard him come back from the shop!! Whoops - I must have been tired!

Fraulein and our Host student enjoyed their English Breakfast, although I'm not sure Fraulein could taste anything as she is totally stuffed up with a stinking cold. Despite saying he didn't want any more breakfast (he'd had toast earlier) Little Prince still managed to demolish a couple of rashers of bacon and some scrambled eggs with smoked salmon.

We didn't do much for the rest of the day, and had a lazy day chatting, doing homework, watching TV and playing with Little Prince. By mid afternoon it was time to take our Host student back to the train station, Little Prince said he would stay at home and look after Drama Teen and Fraulein, so just me and Mr Messy went with her in the car. I couldn't believe how sad I felt waving to her at the station, I think I'm still hating goodbyes as its only been a week since Little Miss Sensible left :-(
On the way home we chatted about various ways Mr Messy wants to expand and diversify his business. He has lots of ideas, but needs to run them past our accountant/business advisor before launching into anything. Then once we got home we found we had nothing in (or nothing defrosted!) for dinner. So we went to KFC instead. I don't mind fast food every once in a while, especially when I'm having a lazy day :-) When we were back home again, it was off to bed for Little Prince, who didn't complain about it being school tomorrow at all :-) And 'encouraging' the big girls to get their homework done. Drama Teen finished hers very quickly, so that she could get back to playing Sims 2 on her computer! She spends hours on it, designing her people and their houses, rather than playing the game!!
