Well Judy you have to say not a bad way to go. No pain, just quietly to sleep. Life changing for you now. Bless.

I have just ordered a book on flower arranging from Book Depository. It is about using what is available in your garden. I am hopeless at putting flowers in a vase so hope this helps.

I have done several flower arranging courses in the past. Good fun. Watch some on you tube as well Chookie. You have a lot of wonderful material with witch to work. Get hold of some florists foam from the cheap shop. Maybe DGD can get some for you. Of course you can just arrange in a vase but you can be so much more creative with a bit of foam stuff.

Discussion with Specialist went well. Don’t have to see him for another 6 months.  He was easier to understand on the phone.
Cold morning but nice sunny afternoon.

Very unhelpful delivery man Chookie.
$100 a week per person is a lot for groceries. Our budget isn't near that. Ever since Hally did her $100 grocery challenge way back when, we have taken our shopping money out in cash and that is it for the week. It includes everything - glad wrap, washing powder etc. We go over occassionally but that is usually with money left over from previous weeks.

Good memory mcmich. I remember that challenge plus some other ones we did. I have certainly been saving money not shopping so often but generally my food money these days are spent on vegetables which are increasingly more expensive. I have found the proteins have come down in price  a bit or marked down with people not having BBQ's and the like. I filled my freezer with some 50% off beef, lamb, pork and chicken from Coles. More people online shopping leave all these goodies for those who can still shop in store! Got some fabulous cheeses for next to nix as well. This is when you love the stupid best before and expire dates. Winner.

Doesn’t matter who you see. Went Mon. 30seconds to have doctor take temp and to ensure the practice can bill the government. 1 minute with nurse. Everyone is making money.  A 50cent  Drug probably cost the taxpayers $100.

So long as he is not in God's waiting room he is probably good to stand. No doubt he was just a wee bit dizzy watching you going round and round the island baking your bread. Turn on Netflix and settle down.

LOL! A Tabby net!!!! You got kitties in that dam of yours? Maybe they ate the ducklings. Apple Inc probably never heard of YABBIES!

I hope you gave away all that bread and didn't eat it. You won't be able to walk around that huge island of yours soon. Ral will have to cart you in his sooper dooper  people mover Instead of hauling chicken poop.

Keep on cooking.
