I've taken advantage of the hot weather and completely stripped two beds and washed all the linen including the mattress covers and one doona.

Nothing today as it's far too hot.  Over the past few days I have made several lots of shortbread, chop chip cookies and roasted a turkey roll to have for lunches

Good on you Grandma. No cooking in this heat but I did boil some eggs for an egg and lettuce sandwich for lunch.

That room would have been a shock to you Chookie, great that you were able to find a much better one. Congratulations to Jilly.
Cookie life becomes so hard as we age and have health problems, wishing your DB & SIL all the best. Hopefully they have children who can help when needed.
A stinker here today in Adelaide so all jobs done early and I’m going to spend the rest of the day watching the cricket.

Marina, the graduation was at La Trobe. Very well managed. Very impressed by the degrees that these young people are doing. Lots of research . GD ‘s boy friends is doing a PHD in reclaiming water. He showed us around the laboratories. The gardens around the buildings are all native plants.
Cookie, that is hard to cope with . As we get older these things seem to happen at the same time.

Got up early and made 2 dozen sausage rolls. These are for GS who is having a party on Saturday.

What a nightmare, Chookie.  Glad you got accommodation elsewhere.  Was your GD's graduation at the Royal Exhibition Building?

Terrible news on your SIL Cookie.  Hope she is OK and that the treatment on your brother's ear is successful.

You have been busy Chookie. I made some biscuits that said they were just like Danish Buuter biscuits. They are certainly very close and were tasty. https://www.biggerbolderbaking.com/danish-butter-cookies/

That would be awful Chookie. Congratulations to your GD.
I had an early morning phone call today. My SIL was taken to hospital by ambulance last night. She has Parkinson’s but we don’t know if this is associated with it. Awful timing as my brother has just started radiation therapy for a skin cancer on his ear that they couldn’t cut all of it out.
Not the best way to start the day.
