What have you been doing today?

I’m so pleased to hear from Marina and Katie this morning. I’ve always got beds available if needed.
I went to the Gym but the Physiologist was on holidays. His assistant was good in moderating my program. The best part was coffee afterwards.
Judy, glad to see you enjoying your 7. I’m sure I’m not using mine to capacity but the more I use it the more I learn.

Thank you Chookie , we are good . Although the fire next to us started up this morning and it burnt more than last night . Pushed DH out the door boots and all to go speedy to it . Off Boys went and first on the job again , lots of private units in the end , it burnt so quickly as it was a wheat crop not harvested . The power came on at 1am and I made a tea and put a load of fire clothes on . Boiled water filled the thermos - I was determined we were going to loose power again . I’m very tired today . We had a drive around it all and that helped . Really it’s nothing , so many loss of homes sheep and crops at all the big fires, so sad .

DD and I went shopping and had a coffee.
The fires seem really dreadful. Do take care everyone.

Judy I’m still discovering tips for the 7. I find it doesn’t mush food up as badly as the others.

After being house bound for 10 days, yesterday I went to the big shopping centre in Ballarat. I have only been there about 5 times and quite enjoyed it. I bought a couple of things I couldn’t buy anywhere else.
I bought a cheap book on recipes for the sausage roll machine. It has recipes for using different types of casings. Filo, sandwich bread and wraps as well as puff pastry. It also has tips such as always starting with a cold machine and start timing from when the green light comes on.

Tidied out the linen press.
I repotted one of my Singapore orchids as it was looking a bit sad.

So good to see you are starting to get out and about again Chookie, just be sure to take it easy and don't stress your body.
