What have you been doing today?

[K Atie]

Well you are all more up to date than me I am impressed . Zapped home to collect DD to take her too college on Sunday . Have a feeling the car will be groaning again . Kittens are so big jerry is identical to his mum black and a little touch of white , Fluffy snowball is white with gray markings she is my favourite. But naughty Tommy the mother is like a barrel ... bad news she is going to hav3 a lot of kittens , now I’m super unimpressed and DH is yet again excited... I am not at all . He is going to have to take responsibility as I told him to get her spade , he was in charge of her when i was away.  This is out of control... and yes now we really will be the mad cat family. I love them but no way is this a good outcome .

Why is DH so excited K Atie, does he want to keep this lot too.

Cookie, thanks for that info.
K ATIE, too many cats.  We are cat and dog free, therefore we have lots of birds.
Big rowing event in Ballarat today. Normally the school kids form support teams but not allowed now due to covid.
Yesterday I was feeling a bit unwell. Did a RAT test, negative.
We have a small paved area that we call the Mediterranean garden. Needs a clean up and cutting back. Grew some Hollyhocks this year.

Yes too many cats and why DH is excited I have no idea what has over come him . Gave all three big cuddles and Tommy lots of love and food . Cleaned the bedding just in case it all happens when I’m not there ! DD drove today . Then out tonight with Uni friends , I dropped her off and yes at midnight picked her up ,bonus points for me ! Melbourne is in full swing so many out it was a shock to see it all back to normal.

Cooking and gardening.

We had a breakfast car run this morning. It was lovely in the cool and was on a spot near the river. I forgot to take a photo of the cars but I did get a couple of photos of the geese wandering around.


I pinched this photo from our Facebook site.

That was a big group cookie.

That is exactly what I was thinking Judy! Loved the flock of geese - although best seen from a distance.

More gardening today.

Lovely photos Cookie. 

We have asked a gardener to come and do a little bit of work for us so of course I have been out with DH to tidy up a bit, as you do

It was lovely weather for the car run so almost everyone took their Model A. Some owners don't like to take them out if it is too hot or too cold or too wet or anything really. I have never seen one members car.

To quote Gollum ... perhaps the car is too preciousssssssss

As you do.
We have a gardener 2 hours a week. We can no long cope with all that needs doing. Ral does the lawns, I the veggies and the Mediterranean garden and the gardener mostly weeding. We bring in specialist to do the hedges and roses.

Most definitely Marina.
We should have gone to a coffee run this morning but the security doors were due to go one DD's house, so that took priority.
Instead I baked a bit and did the ironing and some housework. It's cooler today only going to be 28. We won't need the air con.
I have book club tonight.

Friend has grown lots of Zucchini so found a recipe for Zucchini chocolate cake. Passed it on, she made it. Said it was so nice she will make another and freeze it. Will make one today but as we can’t eat it I’ll give it to someone.
Bit of gardening and cleaning bathrooms.
