On Boxing Day I went to my brother’s house in Lara for a family gathering. It’s the first time I’ve been there and it was great to see him and his wife and the beautiful home they have made. I enjoyed hanging out with my four brothers. It’s not that often they are altogether. They are all so different. I had Asha for company from Melbourne as we travelled to and from her place together. It was great to have a bit of one on one time with her after all the bustle and coming and going of the week. I can’t help but admire her when I spend time with her.
Darin went to watch the start of the Sydney to Hobart but was disappointed by the weather conditions as they couldn’t get out. He arrived home today. It’s his birthday. I don’t envy him having a birthday on this date. Today we have just lay around watching DVDs. It was good to have a recovery day, but I couldn’t help feeling we should be celebrating his birthday in a more lively and social manner. This year he has supported my whole family in making our celebrations more memorable each of us in different ways. I did manage to cook dinner though and poke an abundance of those skinny candles into a cake for him. It was low key though. I did him another favour by not singing happy birthday to him. I know…kind!
