I am not actually brave enough to wear all that outrageous gold embroidery on the outside, let alone shout Queen at the world, but the thought did make me grin. Just as I might not be brave enough to actually wear the little (or not so little, going on my oversized skull) purple felt cloche hat with bright pink felt flowers on the band, that I indulged in after the latest frosty morning turned my ears into very chilled appendages. I rarely come across hats big enough to not look silly on me, but this one was described as a 60cm so I have hopes it will sit neatly - even if I have to drop the twisted bun a bit lower to make room. And of course the thought that the colour might match the coat was too tempting to ignore, especially when the seller dropped a third off her asking price on the offer she sent me.

So that will make for vast amusement next week, playing ladies in the mirror while trying to convince myself to risk looking like a complete idiot on the next cold morning!

Morning everyone

Tad chilly but nice with the sun out.

Madam has deemed its ok, but sort of under protest that she sit on my legs since Ive shut her out of the bedroom where she sits in the sun.. but that's cos she will hide under the bed and make it impossible to leave until she comes out.

Ohh I love the Hat Hunni.. the mother told me once I could wear anything on my head and it would look stylish. I like beanies tho. I have quite a few.

Bloods , gas and shopping today. I saw a recipe yesterday that contains 750 grams of chocolate.. The base and top is rice bubbled out into milk or dark chocolate, the middle is a caramel with white chocolate in it.. it only makes a 8 x 8 inch tin.

Absolutely wicked.. and I will eat every piece for as long as it takes.. And each time I do I will think of my stepfather who would be able to eat it mouthful to mouthfull with me.

Just as well its only $2-39 a block in Pak n Save this week, and I need a caramilk for a birthday present too lol.

I might have to move my rocking chair out into the sun in the mornings and take a book out and enjoy the sun. One of my meds means I have to be super careful in the sun or I will fry, but the morning sun should be ok.

Just thought the bloods might be a mess although it is a few days since my 3 days in a row of red meat lol. But I DONT CARE lol..

Have an awesome day everyone

*chants* wear it! wear it! wear it!... No point having it if you aren't going to wear it and who gives a flying toss what others think. Being older gives you that 'right' to not give a dam. We've earned it I love it and it's hand made too! Honour the maker by wearing it

Tiger lilies have been moved, omg some of the bulbs were huge. One would fit in my hand completely. And I had three that size. And the horrible shrub has been cut back waiting for our garden person to grind the stump when he comes next. There is quite the gap where it was and hopefully the pretty lily shrub thing next to it will grow into the space.

Time for lunch

The coat got several rounds of applause when I took it off...

I might be slightly regretting not stitching it to the outside, lol.

I think that would be even better.


And definitely wear the hat!

Have to say I enjoyed that round of shopping.. shitloads of choccie, but as it is a part of every day life I decided to buy it while it was dirt cheap.

The other best buy was 2 liters of Tip top of Vanilla ice cream for $2-59. Limit of two.. I'm not a big vanilla ice cream eater, but as I was having the choccie pudding last night I thought it would have been nice to have with it. So Yes I got two. And I have enough pudding for tonight.

And apples for $1-49 a kilo...

I wonder how many people went in multiple times or a couple got 2 each type things.

Ive made a decision, Im going to have a winter lounge and summer lounge. Ill stay as it is now for the rest of this winter and summer but as it cools down next year I will swap them over. My bedroom gets the sun for the greater percentage of the day. It is a much warmer room so through winter it should be more livable. The rooms are the same size, basically mirror image but opposite. And the TV works in there also.

Cant wait to tell Dianne cos she is worried about me being so cold.

Gayle messaged me and she said she was glad Im in her Fathers house. It feels warm and inviting now. Warm in the energy not temp. She had horrible memories from here but she said she's leaving those in the past now.

Im soo pleased its changed for her. I know even on my birthday she wasn't quite her normal self.
