I am not good at moderation though.
Moderation is OK as long as you don't overdo it,
RE: You can never have enough... - Oh_hunnihunni - 09-10-2023
Not good at patience. Not good at moderation. But I am good at yelling at idiots on the tv!
RE: You can never have enough... - R2x1 - 09-10-2023
That's a lot of vocal exercise, even if you exclude " personalities" famous for being famous.
The best thing about TV is its uncanny ability to turn power cuts into an oasis devoted to pleasing the maximum number of viewers.
RE: You can never have enough... - kiwimade64 - 10-10-2023
morning ladies
Typical spring day by the looks of it, rain and sunshine.lol OHH, I also yell at the idiots on the telly. MrK gives them the finger. He's been doing that a lot lately with all the election stuff lol.
I had better do the grocery shopping today, the pantry is a tad bare after the grandkids visit
Even with a list and a rough idea of costs, it scares me.Tomorrow the book fair begins
What a treat that is. It goes on until Saturday.I can't believe how much dust and crap the new vacum vacums up. I knew my old tellus wasn't up to scratch but omg, it is just plain embarrassing how much more dust and dirt this little vacum cleans up. I was going to hire the rug doctor, but that will have to wait. I thought it would be just a once over with the new vacum, then I could clean it. Nope lol.
Happy crafting
RE: You can never have enough... - popeye333 - 10-10-2023
Morning everyone
Sunny and windy here.
Its amazing how we discover how poor the old vacc was eh Kiwimade. The little stick one I go is a powerful little machine. I dont mind emptying it often cos I know its getting a lot of crap, mainly cat hair from the carpet.
Things eased big time at the first rest home yesterday. We have all put the tension behind us and I was even talking to the carer that got stroppy with Colleen and I last time. So it feels a bit better. They had a choice of lunches, and of course it got messed up but it was the first day, and we expect mess ups.
General housework for me today. Nothing terribly exciting lol.
Have a fab day everyone
RE: You can never have enough... - Roma - 10-10-2023
Good morning.
A mix outside ... sunny then cloudy with a good breeze blowing.
Back to school/kindy routine yesterday so catch up day today including food buying and a few jobs while out.
Only watered a few days ago but more needed thanks to the wind. Pot growing keeps me extra busy and hoping the overgrown lobelia I cut right back will have another flowering. The frangipani starting to flower ... always a good show and perfume at this time of year.
Time to move.
Enjoy the day all.
RE: You can never have enough... - Mica - 10-10-2023
Morning all
Bright overcast here
Attended local quilt guild last night I rejoined couple months ago when they moved meeting venue to the suburbs so much easier than in cbd parking for one just park right outside the new venue. Excellent presentation on sewingzero waste c,othing.
Off to my DSIL grandma funeral this morning she was 102 lovely lady..
This afternoon got to figure out getting Snapper card with concessions on it. We usually travel on train off peak using gold card but think we should have back up on hand.
No sewing yesterday but did finish left front of cardi and cast on for 2nd one..
Enjoy your day
RE: You can never have enough... - Oh_hunnihunni - 10-10-2023
In all my furniture rearranging I relocated the St Johns alarm without thinking it through. She who rules has been investigating new surfaces and new spaces and last night she found the alarm was a good place to sit. So even with lights flashing and siren screaming at near midnight she sat there oblivious and there's me untangling bed clothes and leaping up to shift her furry arse... but not in time.
I do like the way St John responders call me Mrs Gardner. And thank goodness they have a sense of humour. Alarm now on its side and not feline accessible, lol.

Lol Hunni Missy parked her butt on mine once. I now have a plastic basket type tray upside down on it. with my Ornament on top.
The St John's lady loved the idea, keeps the dust out and keeps it safe from nosey smart a*sed felines lol

What a coincidence - that's also my special skill! And with an election so close, there's no shortage of idiots on TV at the moment.

But to top it off Guess who has to bla*dy vote again.. yep we are in Port Waikato so will have to vote in the by-election. I guess I can simply Hope that it makes Bayly quake in his boots. probably wont make much difference but hopefully he has a few wobbles until its over
RE: You can never have enough... - Oh_hunnihunni - 10-10-2023
The thing that got me was how she just sat there, one foot on the emergency button red light flashing shrieking noise and she just sat there. Amazing, lol.
Oh, and I bought another tank. Matching one to the other, going side by side, now I have to go dig up some dirt so when it arrives I can start with the fun stuff. Mud pies, woo hoo!

Ohh Hunni Im glad your having soo much fun.. Takes your mind of other stuff eh.
My Madam took of, but came straight to me like it was My fault. They were talking by the time I got to it lol.. they laughed thankfully.
RE: You can never have enough... - Oh_hunnihunni - 10-10-2023
Exactly popeye! I told myself - focus on something else, find more joy, and to hell with being sensible...
Any excuse eh?

"I bought another tank"
Just for a second - an especially lovely second - I visualised an actual ride-inside, tracks & flip top tank complete with long turret gun thingy, piloted by Hunni & Madam cat, heading down to the beehive to sort that lot out...
RE: You can never have enough... - Oh_hunnihunni - 10-10-2023
Well, I'm sure a certain scooter modifying expert on here could organise such a thing - but wouldn't one of those battle helmets rather squish my top knot?
RE: You can never have enough... - kiwimade64 - 11-10-2023
morning ladies
It's a tad chilly but the day should warm up.You could always modify the helmet, OHH
to fit your topknot Then you could avoid the dreaded 'flat hair' we get when wearing hats and helmets The Furry One has his annual vaccination today, he's always happy to go visit the vet. The only thing he doesn't like is standing on the scales and who can blame him for that!
It's Day 1 of the book fair today and one of my favourite days of the year. I'll vote while in town and that will free up our Saturday for other stuff like cutting the suckers off the cherry tree and trimming back a shrub so we have a clearer view for crossing the road.
Happy crafting
RE: You can never have enough... - Oh_hunnihunni - 11-10-2023
The Furry One and I share that dislike km...
Why does it often rain on my Wednesdays? I really need to do a vegie shop today...
RE: You can never have enough... - Roma - 11-10-2023
Good morning.
Sunshine ... so far.
Lol, KM my canine can't get on the scales fast enough even on 3 legs! Those scales mean a treat ... or 2. Have fun at the book sale.
An appt today and will get some baking done for visitors tomorrow.
Roll on election so we can talk about/listen to other topics of conversation!
Enjoy the day.
RE: You can never have enough... - popeye333 - 11-10-2023
Morning everyone
Damp here, the plants are still..
Oh definitely a hole in the top of a helmet HUnni. You could add ribbons to the top to blow free as well. I must ask, cant remember if I have already.. Do you have a flag, although Im thinking that would be a little on the plain side for you.
Off to see MrP today. Hopefully his confusion is easing. He wasn't too bad yesterday Morning. But was asleep last night.. On days where I dont do anything Im often glad that he is asleep at night. Cos it can get hard thinking of things to say.
Then Im going to pop into the take aways and see if they will sell me some uncooked sausages. And Ill make some toad in the hole. If they wont sell them uncooked it wont matter I can still make it. Im happy to pay full price either way.
Missy woke me early so I've missed how many Bungie (Bunjie) jumps the guy did , so I will look that up in a tick. Cant think how to spell it lol.
Have a fab day everyone
