Moonlight Serenade

What a long day. My day did not start out on the right foot. Last week as i drove by one of the neighbors places, i noticed a small removalist van parked in their driveway. I tried to refrain from doing the "dance of joy" until i knew for certain that they were on their way, besides, there was no "for sale" sign out the front........odd. After chatting with the lady next door to me, i learned the wife and 3 feral children (all of whom i expect to see as clients i am sure) had moved out, leaving the thing she called a husband in the house. Well, last night he decided to celebrate his new found freedom with a party........till 5.30am this morning. I don't mind the music, but the DRUMS and pathetic attempts at singing....omg. I put "A" to bed at 8.30pm, and she was being serenaded then as her room backs on to their backyard. I told her to just relax and enjoy! That being a drummer herself ( she's been learning the drums for the last 12 months) she may pick up a few pointers! Well that had to be a joke, she could teach them a thing or two.....they were pathetic. By 11pm when i went to bed they were in full swing...pathetic banging on the drums.....god awful singing, foul language and music which i could not decipher. I was still awake at 1am, went to the bathroom grabbed a drink of water, mouthed a few obscentites and went back to bed. "A" came into my bedroom at 1.30am, so up i get again to march her back to bed. "Relax and enjoy" i tell her! Off to bed i go, where somewhere after 2am i must have fallen asleep, only to be woken at 5 am by a car full of screaming pricks as they drove past. Up i get to check on the music and drum situation......stopped. Knowing "A" and i both had appointments with my hairdresser and Saturday is my grocery shopping day, i figured i may as well stay up, if i go back to bed and get up after another hour i will feel like crap..................i felt like crap anyway! I later found out that the car full of pricks took the boat out to the reef, cool me thinks.....may fall overboard!!!
So after a quick tidy of the house, check my emails and a coffee...............we were in town for the hairdressers by 8am, where all hell breaks loose! My phone, wtf was it? Not in my handbag....i remember i had it at home.....where did i put it? OMG, remember! I put the cat outside and un locked the car for "A", and sat the phone on top of the front fence whilst i open the gate! If anyone walked past the house they may see it on the fence..........crap. Well, looks like my grocery bill was going to be a whole lot lighter, no way could i go shopping after being in the hairdresser for an hour and a half knowing my phone was asking to be pinched! So looking ready for the Emmy's, "A" and i headed for home, with me secrety praying that it would still be there. Upon turning into the driveway, "A" yells out........."Mum, there it is!!" Indeed it was! Indeed, that's where we stayed too! I decided to stay home and figured we could eat on Monday!

till next time, Michelle.
