You can never have enough...

Reminds me of going through to Rotorua hospital from Taupo for my first baby scan km, and drinking two enormous milkshakes halfway. These days I wouldn't make it, lol... And that reminds me of the morning after the c section, when I shocked myself by peeing fifteen kilos off in fluid, memorable moments indeed!

Gorgeous golden and chirpy morning out there today. I ticked another little job off the to do list yesterday, taking the jigsaw - the manual version - to the pole on the lightweight sun umbrella. It is easier to put up out on the courtyard table than the big one but the pole was so long once in the table the latch at the top was almost out of old lady reach, so I took two hand lengths off it and replaced the cap on the slightly ragged end. So much easier even if tall people might need to duck heads a bit to get into the shade. I bless my Dad for teaching me that tools are a good thing to have in the kitchen cupboard and giving me the confidence to do these little jobs for myself. Halfway through the aluminium tube though I wasn't quite so convinced! But I persevered, and both holding arm and sawing arm are none the worse for the exercise this morning.

Might get some more autumn chopping done today, and I have silverbeet and mixed brassica punnets to plant out into big pots, might pop some of the red onion seedlings in among them to keep the bugs at bay.

Im lucky I can drink copious amounts of fluid and hang on.  Can go for hours without having to go to the bathroom. 

I have my own Tool Boxes.. 2. I slowly gathered pieces. 

To the point that MrP, "he who couldn't keep track of his own tools" would ask to borrow mine. He knew if he didn't put it back he wouldn't be allowed to use them anymore.. 

Oddly he could do that but NOT keep track of his own tools.. He would send me to buy more. So it was cheaper to let him use mine lol

Which is why he had soo many tools that I was finding 50 plus allen keys, 30 plus screw drivers etc.. 

I even threatened to buy him pink ones.. That held him off for a while lol
