We've had quite a lot happen lately, and I didn't get to add an entry last week. Bronwyn has been really struggling, and we've had her case workers over several times to look after her. But we've had a lot of help from the church. A friend is trying to organise another home group, and wanted Bronwyn to come along. Bronwyn isn't up to going to the main church meetings, because she can't handle all the people. But she misses the old ladies group we used to have. So she was interested in another one starting.

So our friend organised another couple to come in and look after the children for the evening. They also did a lot of cleaning, which really helps me since I've struggled to keep the floor clear let alone clean. I guess there was a bit of spiritual opposition, if you understand the phrase, in terms of Bronwyn's mental state as all of this was being planned.

Wednesday went really smoothly. The house is considerably cleaner and tidier, and I've been able to get a lot more useful things done. This weekend, Rachael has been down the road at a childrens' camp - her first time. She had a whale of a time, and we had 40 hours of peace!

The deck still isn't finished. The wall still has holes. I guess I need to use my extra free time to do some carpentry, as long as I can find timber to match our 90 year old weather boards.
