A bit of sewing is happening but still lots and lots of clean up. The sorting has finished at least but we aren’t ready to do the big swap yet so I’m moving what I am keeping back into the cupboards that will be used when I do move and keeping the other cupboards empty.

I’ve just about managed to get all the spare tubs of fabric in cupboard storage now which is a big bonus. I have about 6 boxes of stuff to donate which I want to get tidy before sending out to charity. All the rubbish and recycling is just about taken care of I’m feeling good about it.
And to the Life Lesson. Maestro is learning to drive he isn’t a risk taker and at the moment he isn’t driving in heavy traffic. One of his mates got a motorcycle license, this particular mate also has had a couple of accidents while riding his push bike due to inattention. After having this mate tailgate me up the road after school one day, I made the comment that he was an accident waiting to happen. Said accident happened on Friday. The mate had already lost his licence from speeding but apparently didn’t have to hand it in till this week. On the way to work on his motorcycle the other night he lost control around the corner from his house and hit a stobbie pole (electricity pole).
Maestro is at the moment visiting him yesterday in hospital, 2 broken femur, 1 leg has a broken kneecap and 1 or both bones in his lower leg are snapped and a shattered elbow. He spent all of Sunday in surgery. Maestro still has trouble with his elbow, but it was his left arm so not his dominant arm and it was cracked. The Mate’s right elbow is a jigsaw and the x-ray’s for the leg breaks are just plain scary. Maestro said he’s on all the drugs at the moment which I think is probably a blessing and he said made for interesting conversations.
Maestro has made light of it but I think it has really rocked him. I know his mate is up for months of rehab and hopefully full recovery something tells me he is in for a long uphill battle to get there.

Congrats on all the progress with the organization. I bet if feels good to be mostly done with that. Very scary for the Maestro's Mate. That is going to be a very long road to recovery. One of the SIT's best friends flipped her pickup truck on the way to high school one morning (driving too fast on a wet country road). Thankfully the friend ended up with just a broken wrist. The girl's mother was really great about it, she had the friend group over to see the damaged truck and shared how much the insurance was going to go up etc. Let's just say it made a very impactful and positive impression on the SIT about being a responsible driver. You have to be sneaky to get shots of them smiling at that age, mine always frowned when the camera came out. Getting a smile took stealth.
