You can never have enough...

morning ladies Another stormy day on the cards.

It would seem we can add another five lost souls to the Titanic death toll

I can answer some of Jan's comments about power. Our son works for a power company and explained the increase in the daily rates to us. There are people in NZ paying $2 a day and others paying 30 cents a day. Changing the daily rate makes it fair for all. As for taking the pay early discount, it was seen as a way of penalising those who pay their bill late rather than a reward for paying on time. Well duhhh! My thoughts on that are, pay in time or make arrangements to pay it off to avoid the penalties.

The power contractors are coming Monday to fix the meters. They phoned to check we had power (yes, the, meters aren't working, that's all) and seeing as they were coming from Tauranga, we suggested they wait until Monday. The drive over the Kaimai Ranges was shocking yesterday with the weather and not worth the risk. I have the money for the correct bill sitting in credit with the power company but our son said they may let us off this month (now, that would be nice!) but just wait and see. It is what it is, and we would rather be up front about it now rather than have a big bill at the end.

Housework today and maybe, just maybe, I can sew!

Happy crafting
