Spy Headquarters

The renovation has been going on for so long in the short lives of my children that the novelty of visiting has completely worn off.  The standard refrain at out place is 'Ooooh we don't have to go to the house do we?'
On Sunday we got the same reaction but this time instead of wandering around asking when we were leaving they DISCOVERED A CUBBY!!!

 
I was called from inside and told to find them, I followed the giggles and was most surprised to hear their chuckles coming from the ceiling of the shed.  It turns our Surfer Boy has built himself a mezzanine for storage and there I found my kids.  
When I went back later they were sitting there swinging their legs and discussing their new HQ.

  

By the end of our visit they had rigged up a rope system to get up there and had decorated with various objects from the first load of boxes we'd brought over.
Unfortunately by that time I was too tired to contemplate getting up there to take photos so you'll just have to use your imaginations.  The whole house is like a magical cubby for me so I was so glad they had found their own - looks like S.B. will have to find another storage spot until the novelty has worn off.

Just in time for summer


Two of the wonderful girls from Yarraville's 'Energy For Everybody' are re-opening their Yoga and Pilates studio in the next couple of weeks. They have taken over the LOOK warehouse on Somerville Rd and the new 'PILATES AND YOGA SHED' will open on the 20th.
Thank god because I for one need a complete overhaul before the sun starts shining on a regular basis. I have every faith that Melissa and Jody will be able to sort me out in time! (yes they are that good) They are putting in reformer beds which I have never used before so I think a beginners course is in my future... hands up if you think I'll be able to see my abs by December?
