Let me tell you about my day

The day started fairly normal, got up early and off I tootled to gym.
Did my work out, then headed home. After breakfast and attending to the chickens I had my shower.
Shower still cold as the new hot water system will be 10days coming. Dont ask me why I dont know.
So after the body got over the shock of that got ready to go to quilting class.
Class was good bought more material to finish off the two jelly rolls I have been working on.
Left class and rang dear hubby as I remembered he wanted me to take him in Hallam to pick up a Van.
He said he wasnt ready yet so I whent straight home and had lunch, go out the vacum and started to do the floors.
Get a phone call ready now. I had to walk over as he had the car, and I needed to follow him first into cranbourne to deliver another car, then pick him up and take him to Hallam.
Did all that and was told go straight home and wait as he needed me to deliver another car. So I do, lucky I had a book with me and sat in the car waiting.
When he gets there, about 15 minutes after me, he is a chatter box. He totally forgets I am there and then after about 10 minutes tells me plans have changed I can go home.
So home I go and start to vacum again, and I get half way through I get a call can I come and help deliver another car.
So off I get, go to the shed to wait and guess what.
He is not ready, and then tells me we may not be going as he is not sure the car is ready.
But can I just wait a few minutes to make sure. SURE I CAN I DONT HAVE ANYTHING BETTER TO DO, DO I.
So after about 10 minutes yes the car gets delivered and I pick up our machanic and bring him back.
go back home to finish vacuming and guess what
Its time to start dinner. So pack up vacumcleaner and try again another day.
MEN!!!!!

Im over it

first all the dramas with babygirls car!
Then the fridge dies and takes all the produce I have harvested and frozen with it.
Now the hot water has decided to give up the ghost.
Cold showers sure do put hairs on your chest, and hypothermia in your body.
Tell me thats three and I can get on with the rest of my life.

Pushing the comfort zone

Baby girl and hubby have found a new, well new for her, car and its in Sydney. So at 3.00am this morning we all got up and off we tootled to Avalon airport. This ment that I would be driving home on my own, in the dark, with pouring rain on roads I dont know.
I was no confident at all. But I am happy to say that I got home in a little over an hour safe and sound. I am worried about the hubby and daughter though. We are having some serious rain her in Victoria and flood warnings are everywhere. Even this morning as I was coming home there were a couple of policemen on the road telling us to move over into the right hand lane, 20 minutes later on the radio it said the hwy there was closed due to flooding on the road. I must of just made it through!
The highway through Wangaratta is flooding and it might close so hubby and daughter may have to stop and spend the night before coming home. I will let them know whats happening when they land. Hopefull I get that call soon.
Anyway were ever you are stay safe.
see ya

not happy Jan

For those in Australia you will remember the quote from the add, for everyone else just know that I am not happy.
On Friday baby girl was coming home from work, minding her own business had stopped at the lights when a car was pushed into her and she was pushed into the car in front. The car behind her was hit by the car behind him.
So it looks like her car is going to be written off. I am very happy that she and no one else were hurt but now I have given her my car to take to work, and although I had hubbys ute he has asked me to leave it with him as he needs it today.
So I am at home without transport. Luckily I dont need to go anywhere! But still not having a car makes me feel somehow trapped.
even to walk to the milkbar is 3klms away. So hopefully we will find out exactly what they are doing with her car, then if needs be purchase a new one for her and then I can get my wheels back.
Whats a mother to do.
