Saturday afternoon at a friend's and scare

Went to our new friends' house this afternoon. Just 2-3 minute walk away. Inside the house, especially the kitchen was identical to the one of my old house!!! Well, it's a housing association house, any way. They often renovate the house, so they must be using the same material and the same plan again and again and again.

While kids were playing away, M and I were chatting over coffee. Been a long time since I did this kind of girls'/women's chat. We have something in common as foreigners who don't know their fellow country men and women in the town. So, we experience similar things. On top of that, neither of us don't take things too seriously and joke away. So, we get on well with each other. Lovely.

After coming home and finishing tea, my wee one went on a bike ride. (I don't know where she gets all the energy from. No wonder she never stops eating and my kitchen becomes empty so quickly recently.) I told her that I would call her back at 7pm. But there was no sign of her at all at that time!!! I walked around the places where she was allowed to go. But the streets were empty. Scary moment. Thought of millions of things which could happen to a child playing outside. But finally found her in the neighbouring street where I had told her not to go. Shouted her over and told her off on the way home. Some neighbours must have heard me having a go at her. (I was so angry that I couldn't care less, to be honest.) She now understands why I don't allow her to go some area and she is now truly sorry. But her bike will stay inside until Tuesday.
