My day has been OK, did a bit of housework then took the dog round the regional park for a walk, got home feeling knackered so will make a cuppa and chill out.



May I just add how green and gorgeous our regional park was looking today, I never tire of going there, loads of families having picnics and BBQs - really nice to see.

Last 24 hours have been shit. Just about to frogmarch teenager to apologise to police for the appalling waste of police resources that were used last night.

After that I shall come home and put my feet up for a little while. I am still full of cold and just pegging out the washing has wiped me out.

At least the sun is shining, what a beautiful day in WA.

Beautiful day... Conquered spudshed, with only one minor skirmish lost...( The tangerines scored a small victory...) But I emerged the overAll winner....

Until I tried to order a cheeseburger from the old blokes on the rotary club sausage sizzle stand... The low cut top and hubba hubba bra trying to contain those puppies got me a The Works burger by mistake....

i would like to think the old bloke dropped the $2 coin on purpose so I'd have to lean over to retrieve it.... One can dream.....

Lovely day. Been apple picking with the kids and OH. Now got half a ton of apples to cook as there is no way we are going to eat them all before they go rotten otherwise!

Have spent TWO days at a swimming meet, doing timekeeping and counting laps. Despite DD having been ill last week, she managed to get a PB and came 4th (out of 4!!) in her 200 breaststroke, and narrowly missed a PB in her 100 free, by 0.2 seconds, so the coaches were pretty pleased with her progress, as she has been injured/ill since February.
Got home and OH had done the ironing, but had folded my tops and put them on a chair, so they were all crumpled again!!

DD has now given me her URTI- sore throat, sneezing etc, so I think a dose of wine is called for.

Played cricket (and won) on a glorious Brisbane day.

Looking forward to some Shiraz and the oddly hypnotic spectacle that is an F1 Grand Prix later.

Doesn't get much better than that.

Well I am knackered, washed and straightened hair, did ironing for work stuff for tomorrow, had to listen to my Galah shouting each time I left the room, too tired to cook so had some porridge for tea

Now got some serious business of some paperwork to do. I don't much care for Sunday evenings.

Eddie you made me laugh big time first about your boobs then about hiding the cakes. thank you for the laugh. Reminds me of my sister. She had boys and you know what they're like with biscuits. She would empty them into the tin then 2 hours later would find one left so they hadn't actually emptied the tin. She took to buying herself chocolate ones and the boys ordinary plain ones and she hid her chocolate ones in the washing m/c cos she knew they'd DIE rather than open that.

My day has been good really. I've just moved house so I did a bit more cleaning -forced into organising the laundry when I accidentally flooded it then spider proofed the outside with a mask and spray can. It was my 60th birthday so I cooked a pizza and poured a wine. I also did a ritual house cleanse with a bunch of burning sage - smoking it's called, purifies and lets out any bad energy. Having inherited a filthy house from a vendor that made considerable difficulties and caused me extra expense I wanted to rid myself of "her" from the house and make it really mine. I've cleaned it inside and got professionals to pressure hose the crud and webs from the outside and did the spider spray and sage cleanse and had a champagne, Now it feels really mine and clean both physically and spiritually. It's a good feeling.

I bagged up all the dirt and emptied the vac cleaner bag into a box and posted it to the bitch telling her one way or another I was determined she would deal with her dirt. She got one of "my letters". I'm just not the woman to mess with.

Hope you had a brilliant birthday, if I was there I would bring you some champagne as well.
