Hectic is putting it mildly.......

Have had 2 weeks of running around and not even time to idle a bit. It all started on Wednesday last week where we went to the recording of Sweepslag TV show. David was in Middelburg doing revue stuff, and of course we have no baby sitter for Danté, so obviously he had to be tagged along on a school night! We were too late for grabbing a bite at a decent restaurant, but could grab something at the studio. Not much though, as  sandwich and coke is not really dinner.

A very organised way of recording the show followed, what I did not anticipate was that Pieter Koen would grab me (sitting in the front row) to dance and spin me on the stage! I can not dance, and the floor was SOOOOO slippery!  Well, I survived it ;-) I do hope they delete that scene!!!! We got home very late.... and I missed out on my beauty sleep!

The following night we did something, but for the love of me I can not remember what!!!! Will have to update this as soon as I remember! 

The Friday was the "Pampoene oppi dak" launch. I wangled my way out of that night, as `i was too tired. Gideon went and took lots of photo's - he had to stand in for Adam Tas, as Adam could not make it - so he did a one man band thing there and then. He came home very late.

The Saturday we had to go there again as it is a 3 day festival and Gideon did the photo's. We had to leave early ( at 4 noon ;-) )  had to drive to Middelburg to see David singing in his old school's revue. They asked him to do a song for the revue. He sang well and I was very proud of him. 

We slept over and the Sunday we had to rush back again as Gideon, David and Theo started the festival on the Sunday at 12h00. They did a nice set with Gideon singing, David on percussions, and harmonies, and with Theo on guitar.

It was supposed to end about at 18h00, but it did not. We left there at 20h10 and went in search of a diner where we could sit and eat. We got home at about 22hoo and went to bed straight away! Too tired even for coffee!!!!

By now my washing and ironing was no heap anymore, but a mountain! I did not get any chance to buy decent food or groceries at all. I felt like a bad mommy and house keeper! 

Monday was getting ready for the Vonk awards ceremony. Had to do my hair, had to find decent attire and do my face and nails - well, did not do my face or nails, but did get a nice piece to through over for the awards night.  The problem was I bought high heels to go with my attire, but that was NOT such a good idea! The pain and agony was unbearable! The shoes was not right for the slippery floor and I had a hard time walking!!!! 

I was so p*ssed off as Gideon's agent did not tell us we had to book a table for the after party. ~Had to stand outside like beggars waiting to get a table ~ maybe get a table......

Well we got seats, at last after standing outside for 40 minutes!!!!! 

Once inside, it was sort of okey at first, but I had sore feet and was still angry about the incompetence of people. To top it all, we did not have any dinner again - but I could drink a coke or any other beverage I wanted. I opted for the Coke Light. 

I decided to enjoy myself and took photo's of people walking past me - I even went to people and asked them if I could potograph them.  We came home late again........

Tuesday I had art classes and we had a Sweepslag recording again the night. Phew! On this night it was Steve Hofmeyr and Dana Winner on the stage.  Luckily we could get home before midnight! I am pooped. I am frustrated as I want to paint - but my house is a mess and the ironing and washing still needs to be done!!!

I will paint this week - come what may! I need to paint or draw or take photo's or something!!!!!

Hope your week is manageble! Hope you have a stunning week!!!!!

Enjoy!
