nishatalithaFamily are here and it's lovely to see them, it really is.
My brother and his wife are relaxing and enjoying a break (she's in the middle of grad school and has just handed in her final papers for one bit, so can actually legitimately do nothing), my parents eventually arrived around 5.00pm with a double-bed for me, a feather duvet, dinner food and firewood (offcuts from the house they're building).
Dinner was lovely: barbequed prawns marinated in thai coriander, chilli and lime sauce with a bit of sweet chilli sauce to start; burniated pork steaks; onions; grilled capsicum; zucchini and mushrooms also barbequed; a green salad; bread rolls; and plum crumble with vanilla bean ice-cream to follow. It all tasted really good.
Only trouble is I now have a cold. Been fighting it off for a few days and it's finally hit. Tomorrow is going to be awful.
Still, double bed. This was one of the things on my list to get when I became a grown-up, I suppose. The fact that my parents have given it to me rather than my having purchased one does not negate the fact that I now have a double bed. It's all made up and everything (sheets and duvet cover are![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
maudlinrose's), and my cat is having a bath on the bed.
Room needs rearranging; I don't have nearly enough space for my computer desk and chair and bookcases need moving around as do other bits and pieces. I think I might go crash now; I'm definately on the babbly side of tired/sick and sleep will be good for me as soon as I can stop typing and turn off my computer
