    September Underoos and Friends

    Good gawd i just gave myself a fright.. was fluffing a doona a bit too robustly an it stuck to the light bulb an BANG! I ran for the hills as i thought it was poison gas etc..
    Thankfully son came to rescue and advised not poison gas type of bulb. Now if it had been in the hallway....
    Whew!
    Didn't realise spring cleaning could be lethal :wow:
    Thought bleaching mouldy walls was toxic enough for one day.
    Happy Spring peeps!

      Peeky Boo everybodeee.

      Hiya Ficks and great to see you.

      Time to pick up the books and go absorb some useful stuff today. There's always a little glimmer of excitement about a new day these days.

      I think we should all go out and have a little adventure today Undies.

        Morning Bridge and ll to come!

        Also want another one for my mother who would need audio book function as she's blind, and very simple operation. I would set it up with tactile coded thingos on the buttons in manner of braile so she can self operate.

        Wow. I would love his opinion. I just get a bit bamboozled when I go to buy scary new things.

        Is your eyesight really that bad Missy? What can be done??
        Bridge - Mr B is up in Auckland today, but is going to do some thinking about it. The glare is an issue with the i-pad and one thing that I do find frustrating. The audio stuff is really easy - we got into it to get the boy reading because he was way behind for a number of years. Once he got into audio books, he just really took off and ended up winning a local literature quiz

        And yes, my eye-sight is that bad, but it has been with me all my life so I dont really notice it much! Except at times (like this morning!) when I knock my glasses off their usual resting place in the middle of the night and have to get Mr B to find them for me :H:H I fall into the small proportion of people who cant have laser surgery unfortunately, so I'm a bit stuck with it. I loved having contact lenses when I had them, but my "tear" function doesn't work very well so they ended up being hard to wear for more than about two hours at a time. Ironic really, given that I cry at the drop of a hat!!

        Had a really lovely day yesterday - my foster daughter came to live with me when she was 16 and stayed until she was 22, and now she is 28. She comes from a somewhat mixed up family, but she really has her shit together ..... and she is beautiful, happy and working hard in a good job. She brought her boyfriend down - first time I have met him and he is a really really nice chap who has his feet on the ground and deals incredibly well with her foibles. I came away from the weekend feeling like the part that I played in journey is something that I can be proud of. There was something that happened yesterday, which brought tears to my eyes, and helped me to think in amongst the stuff that I beat myself up for during my drinking years, that I also did some good stuff.

        have a good one undies!

          Morning Jonesy, Missy, and hoons to come,

          Absolutely Missy. You are an exeptional human being. I have no doubt you had, and still have a huge influence on her. Lovely post, thanks.

          'Tis a pearler of a day here, and throughout the country i suspect. Sober, relaxed, free. I'm excited!

          Ooroo.

                      It's an Agricultural Show, Lilly, showcasing machinery & large toys for farmer blokey types with token efforts of things that might interest women & kiddies.
                      The company I hire to attend the event & make twisted balloon shapes for kiddies is making me the dress. I have NO IDEA what it'll look like!
                      I had a nice weekend, thanks, riding my horse & trying to look B & I. Or maybe D & B. Or maybe all.
                      You must have a lot of patience to make those doilies Lilly - so delicate.

                          Gosh I am idiot sometimes... this is the day our rubbish bins go out, and hubbie takes them in when he comes home from work, I'm in the sewing room and hears the noise of the bins been wheeled in, okay hubbie is home I thought, so made him a coffee and takes that out the back patio, with 2 tim tams that he always has when he gets home, I'm sitting there waiting for him to come in, then thought he is taking a long time to come from his garage, so decided to have a look, he was'nt even home, it was the guy next door taking his bins in.. Duh Lilly :H
