A Storm Is Coming.

It's hot, oh so very hot. The humidity is extreme. So the 2 boys and I went swimming. Firstly we managed to do 6 loads of washing and get most of it dry before we went out. I had a feeling that the rain might come again later this afternoon. We all got into our swimmers and drove to the lagoon out next to the beach. It was busy with the school holidays on but it wasn't so extreme that you couldn't move. Perhaps everyone was at the shops. The 2 boys and I had a fantastic time.We swam and played with the surfboard. Brandon met another little boy and they had a great time together. In fact it was myself, Brandon, Bailey and the other little boy-Keiran- that all played together.

We did laugh today which was fantastic. Unlike yesterday. The sun was shinning and the 2 boys were having a great time. Eventually I had to pull them out of the water and encourage them to get dressed. They needed no encouragement to eat some food. There was a kids Christmas party happening right next to us while the boys ate their food. Brandon couldn't understand why he wasn't invited. From swimming, we came home. Both boys were asleep. Which sounds like the best place for them at the moment.

Once they awoke we changed nappies, had lunch, and drank heaps of water. Then we all went outside and played. We jumped and jumped and jumped on the trampoline. It was getting hotter and hotter and so were we. By now the boys were nude and jumping and wrestling on the trampoline together so I started squirting them with water. They loved it. It kept them cool too. Many hours later we actually got back inside. It was starting to rain and even though the boys were nude and wet, I didn't  think they really needed to be out in the rain. Once inside I put on a DVD for the boys to watch and cool down with.

I heard thunder. More thunder. Here comes the storm. This time I have candles, and torches and matches handy. Just in case we have another blackout. And here is the storm. Holly Cow. Hopefully we won't  get washed away. The storm came but here comes another one.
