You can never have enough...

[JanW]

Good afternoon from a grey old day in the Bay - put the wet weather cover over my veggi pod just in case the threatened heavy rain arrives .Hope it doesn’t stay long the Ukraine kids have all sorts of plans for the holidays to venture out on their bikes .You are going to have a great week Kiwimade - enjoy they grow so quickly - my youngest one had her first driving lesson this week just seems like yesterday she was born - she was taken on a Careflight to Wgtn just a few hours old - but a series of hospital dramas meant she was critically ill - wasn’t expected to survive the flight .but was lucky enough to be given an experimental, drug that would leave her possibly disabled mentally and physically - thank goodness they took the risk - she has dyslexia plays Hockey at NI rep level - at 12 had a drum recital at a local pub all her own music - she is special
My husband cut my hair for years and my granddaughters even though one daughter in law owned a salon - I had a bob for donkeys years which seemed simple for him to cut - after he died I thought I would have a go myself so tossed my wet hair over my head - bent over the washbasin and thought if I cut the ends into an oval shape - the shape would be retained - well I have never yet worked out how my plan didn’t work but I ended up with a spiky fringe - the back and sides were OK but how the front ended up like a porcupine I will never know - I sent out an SOS to my daughter in law who was very unsympathetic and told me to wear a hat - it took ages to grow back but I got quite expert at draping the sides over from a middle part - it was a oncer never tried again .Popeye if you have a colour make sure it isn’t too drastic that you have a problem with regrowth a month or two down the line
The Irish played a great game - I have no problem with the cards the ABs should know better
- they are teaching the kids about dangerous tackles -every week kids are being sent off for dangerous play - except for the referee this week one of the kids in my grandsons team ended up with a fractured cheekbone -my grandson was lucky he only got a black eye
Was just talking to my granddaughters in Sydney - they are thankful they bought an upstairs flat - the water in their suburb is still slowly receding - But they have no regrets about making the move - both have found good part time jobs that fit in with Uni
My potted freesias are flowering - they are way out of sync
Coffee pot is calling Robie brought me some ginger kisses haven’t had them for years - would love some of Mums ginger gems
