[Roma]

Good morning.

It's wet and windy ... not cold at least. 

Healing vibes to Mr K ... hopefully the needed surgery happens quickly. Yes KM being assertive and armed with some paperwork should help   

Traction would be a good body stretching relief method. I remember seeing an inversion device you could buy years ago ... I see still available, lol.

Another inside day ... the 2nd half I will have the GC for "entertainment". Hopefully there will be a break in the weather to get outside and stretch the legs.

Enjoying knitting with a new vest pattern ... a useful one from babe to 10 yo. Also have a good Ann Patchett book on the go.

Stay warm and dry all.

Morning everyone

Wet but not cold yay.. yesterday was a shocker heatwise or lack there of.

I feel your going through what I went through Kiwimade. But hopefully MrK isnt nasty like MrP was. I know Waikato has the best heart surgeons. My brother and sister in law live in Waverly, down near Wanganui but when it comes to their hearts they are flown to Waikato.

Hope all goes well.. I was in the Cardio Thoracic ward in the early 90s, older building it was but they were great.

Home for me today, Ill shop on my way home tomorrow. Will put rice on.. Ive missed it lol.. and generally have a lazy day.

Stay dry all

Hope all goes well for Mr KM & the results are all that you want them to be. Another couple of months & it'll be spring, & that usually lifts the spirits. Glad the yoga's helping the back Hunni.

Miserable rainy day, even Madame le Cat has settled indoors after a swift venturing out earlier, very unusual for her. Slighty concerned for the Nelson lot but apparently more trenches have been dug (he's a good lad that new boyfriend) according to youngest Granddaughter & her Mum's OK too so fingers crossed it doesn't get too bad there.
Made some corn fritters earlier,something I haven't done for ages so will freze some if they're OK.

[Oh_hunnihunni]

Mmmm, now there's a good idea for my dinner - fritters! And I have mussels. Yum...

Perfect for a rainy day.

Or I could just have a bacon sandwich...

And I've just put a gigantic spud in the oven to stuff later, once its cooked & will do one of those veg sausages i like as well. Sweetie darling no. 2 made some tomato pickle which is really nice so that'll do nicely for both sausage & fritters.

It must be really cold, Madame le Cat is in the kitchen not at all keen to go out again & claiming that its dinner time. 

It was blardy freezing when we did the short rainy day walk earlier.

MrK could be coming home tomorrow. It's not his heart, it's another health issue that goes back years. I left the hospital early as the weather warning was changing from yellow to orange. Boy, that wind was strong when driving home, especially on the expressway. It's like driving through a tunnel sometimes.

Not sure what I'll have for dinner, probably an egg on toast will do. And maybe some fruit, muesli and unsweetened yoghurt for later.

[Oh_hunnihunni]

Mmmm it is really wet here, the rain coming towards my deck, the windows are getting washed but it is very drear. Depressing. I am glad I don't have to be out there, but I'm not in the mood for anything that requires moving. Breakfast for dinner has some appeal, porridge with crabapple jelly and yoghurt, that'd fill the spot, lol...

Not an inspiring day...

[popeye333]

Glad you could have your man back tomorrow Kiwimade.

Its not cold here, its wet but not even much wind.. Its been nice being in doors painting all day..

APART from when my lunch ended up on the floor. And yes I brushed it off.

The Bulb blew in another lamp. So I put the lamp with the other two in the spare room, got the bulb out of the one in my room, got the hottie and blankets etc all in place, Dohhhh no lamp for the bulb..

Then I'd just got settled AGAIN and Madam puked up her biscuits she ate far to quickly, so I had to clean that up. But I got up soo quickly a tray of diamonds hit the floor. Must say they are easier to pick up off a wooden floor.


This was all inter woven with having to dislodge Madam and the blanket and hottie as well as the painting gear to stir the rice every hour for 3 hours..

I was ready to call it a Day and Madam told me someone was at the door.. no knocking.. And there was my new lappy. Thankfully wrapped in plastic as the rain is coming in the front porch.

So I plugged that in fingers crossed it will be all good.

I have an early start tomorrow I want to leave town by 7-30 at the latest, but I will be at the medlab before that. It's good knowing I dont have to rush home for the courier.

Im going to visit a couple of Papakura Oppies if I feel ok.. and its not too messy out there.

So now Ill do my games and watch the Bake off.. And I think Ill have a choccie fish

Morning Everyone

Yep still dark and early lol.. not cold by any means.

Off for my knee check, and then the day is mine.

Madam is certainly not happy about being shut out of the bedroom. But if I didn't she would hide under the bed and make me late. She has already voiced her opinion of being up Far to Early, loudly.

I plan on staying on the main road, and will avoid the Motorway.

Ohh Motorway, remember him from the TM MB's? Sadly he passed from his failing kidneys, and wouldn't take a live donation. I think of him often, his burnt meals served on Crown Lynn plates.. And his taking kids on his motorbike. It was his Daughter in laws Birthday yesterday.

Have a good day all

[Mica]

Morning all 
Raining dull day will be an indoors day.

DS and GK came for lunch and stayed so no sewing done yesterday.  Did finish knitting hat for DGD2 to match the jersey I just finished. Started knitting  another shawl scarf using merino possum 5 ply. Purchased  large cone from factory sale last year. Planning on knitting  a jersey for me next since it is knitted  top down I will be abkexto try on th check the fit  before I progress too far.. colour dark navy.

Vacuum is with the courier for delivery  so will be able to play once it arrives. 

Keep dry and warm

[Oh_hunnihunni]

It is looking good out there, so I will get a few circuits of the village in today, bones permitting. I had a really good night thanks to the good drugs, actually slept right through with no pain or visiting cat interruptions so things are definitely on the improve. Amazing how much better a day looks with that kind of overnight rest...

[Lilith7]

That's good news KM, hope its less windy day for his homecoming.

Friday Funny this week has one of my favourites - the voice recognition elevator...in Scotland, absolutely love it.

Plus another of theirs, sarcasmaholics meeting & a Clarke & Dawes one (John Clarke aka Fred Dagg) on the English language in Australia.

Ventured out earlier due to it not raining...until I was approximately half way, dammit. And then they didn't have the bread I wanted, or the panadol so had to head to Chemist warehouse, where they did have it.
But where they also,( cleverly placed on the way to the checkout obviously,b'stards!) had some of those little soft toy wheatbag things I got for all the great grandad kids. With the exception of latest arrival, dammit. Will have to get her one soon, while they're till on special & put it away for her first birthday.
