DH finally finished working in our bedroom - 3 coats of paint over Easter then putting our new Ikea furniture together yesterday. The room is still in uproar as we didn't have time to tidy it up completely, but it looks really good. The curtains, which I loathe, will be next to go when I have time to do something about them!

It looks like so many of us have been battling with various health issues for a while now - some on-going, some new. I guess age is a factor, but I hope, one way or another, we can all come through this and have much improved day to day lives.
Take care everyone and look after yourselves

We are out of biscuits. I was planning on spending a lovely time looking through recipes. However DH has just told me he wants peanut biscuits. So fun and exploration is gone. I might put malt in them instead of golden syrup.
Is that a bit radical Cookie??? I agree that fossicking around to decide what you are going to cook / bake next is half the fun of the experience.

K Atie, that sounds traumatic. Do you know what caused the fainting / vomiting? It was fortunate that you were with your friends and they were able to look after you. Perhaps you should just take it easy for a couple of weeks, if that is at all possible for someone as busy as you. Take care.

Cortisone injections (3) into my foot this morning for pain relief during our holiday. I think I will also take the moon boot if things don't settle down before we leave.

Marina, saw a notice . don’t drink the water when it is switched back on. Contaminated.
Thanks for that Chookie - Coliban Water even had a water truck in the village reserve for everyone to access clean water. I just filtered then boiled and boiled and boiled the tap water then filtered it again. It tasted terrible after all the boiling and filtering, but it was OK for drinking. I think the 'gold standard' for contaminated water is actually a 20 minute boil; I figured I boiled c. 10 minutes plus two filterings - it must be OK, I am here to tell the tale, anyway! Today was another visit to the GP (she thinks I have an abscess in my lip) then off to the podiatrist for a new set of orthotics - in 2 weeks he will take a plaster cast of my foot and sort out a customised orthotic for me whilst we are away.

That is very sad for that lady - it will be a huge wrench for her.

Super frustrating day today - we have been out of water since 2.00 am! I have all the ingredients for my cooking all lined up on the bench, ready to go, just waiting for the water to come back on.
I have been lugging water from our water tanks for the toilets, but as I am back in my moonboot, I can't carry much more than 4 litres at a time!~ I am told we should have water back on by 2.00 pm! Fingers crossed.
