Its a beautiful sunny day today.
I will do some housework today. But nothing over the top. It doesn't get messy with just me. Ill [pick up Madams torn cardboard on the lounge mat tho. Its the only place she does it so I dont mind lol. Must sort out my wardrobe again, just coat hangers are messy lol
She is still loving her new Pooh toy lol.
Yeah Jack is almost settled so that's good. We haven't had a dog for over 20 years, but I still miss them.
Ill measure ingredients out later. Couldn't believe Butter has gone up $1 a pound in the last couple of weeks. I have some new world dollars so I might get some more incase they go up again. Ill use the full pound tomorrow.
Have a fab day all
Thought this may be of interest shows how low the water levels are - so they will keep increasing the power charges - remembering despite the politicians on both sides posturing we own Transpower and 51% of all the big retailers like Meridian Contact Genesis etc
