Afternoon Tea with Probus.
Most unusual thing happened yesterday. The Pharmacy where I get my medicines said they couldn’t provide one of my medications. Also none in warehouse. Suggested I shop around.
Still quite warm. 30 today.
Has everyone noticed all the posts everywhere about the TMX 7?  Feels like going back to 2009 when I got my first TMX.

We had the tree people in today to trim the hedge along our back fence.  The hedge was about 6 mts tall and they have reduced it by about a third.

Couldn’t have done it without the a/c Marina. Bit of respite last night with a cooler minimum but heats building up again this afternoon. I put the avocado pieces in the smoothies frozen, that’s all I use the frozen ones for. I had to do that as DF’s sister has a tree and I ended up with a freezer drawer full last year.
Chookie, I can’t just let the 7 sit there seeing as it was a gift so most days I do something in it. This morning’s something was a batch of almond biscuits but I used macadamias, better for ckd. Most of the things I do are for him, I have plenty of food for me in the freezer. Glad to read that your problem is easing.

Katie, that’s very hot. Poor Chook. I read somewhere that people were bringing their pet chooks inside during this heat wave.
The heat seemed to continue well into the night, even though there was a change.
I didn’t go to book club it was just too hot to go out.
My pinched nerve is finally recovering. It is a month since it started. I’m able to reduce the pain killer.
Today, clean out veggie draw in fridge.

Hell, it was hot yesterday. Everything felt hot. Only good thing about that was the washing dried very quickly. 41 degrees.

That is a lot of work, Judy.  Obviously the cooler weather has arrived at your place! 

I didn't know until about 3 days ago that you could freeze avocado.  Do they discolour when they thaw out?
