Finally I have an excuse as to why our house is so dusty. Not because I am lazy but because of this:

Sydneysiders have woken to a massive dust storm that blanketed the city in thick red dust, causing severe delays at Sydney airport and prompting warnings from health authorities. – Channel 9 News
Isn’t this just the most amazing thing? Its like there has been a sepia lens surgically attached to everyones eyes while they were sleeping….
I know I know, its in Sydney and I am in Brisbane, but apparently its on its way. So this morning I have been running around like an idiot closing all of the windows and doors in a desperate attempt to keep at least some of the dust out. Its red. Red dust. RED DUST! Can you even imagine how hard that it going to be to get rid of? Considering that most of our furniture is white. I know what you are thinking, small kids + white furniture, I don’t think they thought that through.
So for the remainder of today, or at least until the windows and doors are back open, this is a fart free zone. Hear me family FART FREE ZONE.
PS: Will keep you updated with pics when it gets here.
