What a great picture - David meets swimming Ace - Grant Hackett (who promotes the Uncle Tobys products), we got him to personally sign a swimming cap for Grace. For those who don't know who GH is here's some info from wikipedia about him...
Grant Hackett OAM (born 9 May 1980) is an Australian former swimmer most famous for winning the men's 1500 metres freestyle race at both the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney and the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. This achievement has led him to be regarded as one of the greatest distance swimmers in history. He also collected a gold medal in Sydney for swimming in the heats of the 4×200 m freestyle relay.
Hackett was the captain of the Australian swimming team from the time the role was reintroduced in 2005, until his retirement in 2008.
Hackett works for the Nine Network, often hosting Wide World of Sports. He is now working for Westpac as a banker and has expressed interest in a possible future political career.
Today was Davids first day back at work which went well and wasn't too mad considering he's just had a 3 week break, a bit of a shock to the system.
And my first day doing the school/kinder run solo, I'm pleased to report that it all went well and we got to school and pre-school on time for drop off and pick ups, and even managed to get to the school parents evening without a hick-up. So very pleased with myself for doing that with Matilda in tow, and pleased of Grace and Georges help in getting there without too much protesting but now also very exhausted!!
Matilda slept through all the ferrying around, she was a bit unsettled this morning, I think the house was too quiet, so we went out for a short walk and she soon dosed off to sleep, it was a lovely morning sunny with a very autumnal breeze - a taste of weeks ahead, lots of dragon flies and butterflies around and the kookaburra laughing loudly as we walked past.
Hope your weeks off to a good start..
