Were you pleased with your new hairdresser Chookie? A big hug for Ral.
My goodness KAtie you are so busy. 😲
CC, cut ok but blow wave awful. Will give her another go but if still not happy will try someone else.  Dozens of hairdressers in Ballarat.
Yesterday Ral had an infusion at hospital.  Took 5 hours.  Specialist changed his medication again. Trying to get him ready for trip to Melbourne next week.
Creswick Farmers Market today.

Poor Ral getting poked and prodded and poor you being the onlooker Chookie. It's hard on both of you. I hope the Melbourne trip works out well for you both.

Sending hugs to you and Ral Chookie and best wishes for the trip to the hospital next week.

Today I filled the bin with clothes I haven’t worn for some time from 2 of my tall boys, I surprised myself by being so gung ho.

It’s good to shop around for another hairdresser if you are not pleased with them Chookie. One of my hairdressers was awful. She left. Not sure if she was sacked but her replacement is excellent.
Another hug for Ral.

I have quite a few clothes that I'm sure I will never wear again. They are my fatter clothes . Some of them I wear round the house but others I should throw out. I think I'm too scared to!

DH left for a auto swap meet at Northam very early this morning. He was up at 4am.  Fortunately a friend was going with him so I got to sleep in. He rang a while ago and said it had gone well and they were on their way home. I think he may need a Nanna nap.  ;D

Cookie, I know the feeling about the clothes.  I have fat clothes and skinny clothes. Winter clothes and summer clothes.  Good clothes and everyday clothes. All too confusing.
Judy, well done.

As long as we know which is which. ;D

... I only wish I had skinny clothes so that I could get confused!  I only have fat ones (and not very many of them!).

Spent the day on and off , it was so humid yesterday , fixing up the chook house with DS . While DS filled holes I collected gauge wire to cover the top of a large lamb enclosure . We tried to bock up gaps between the wall and roof , all as the Bantam needed to be moved in to the chook house . We took out the brooding chook placed her in the lambing pen with food and water . Then it took some time to get the bantam settled in the chook house . She was ok but pacing the fence . This morning I went to see if she was ok , could not find her , looked up and perched  up high . Phew . Got her down to have a drink . She must have been up there for awhile as drank heaps of water . Let's hope she settles in as I don't want her to escape . Spent this morning helping move sheep!

K Atie, I am exhausted reading all that you do.  You certainly keep very busy.

I'm cleaning out the linen press today.  Most of it is in reasonable condition, just not needed, so it will go to the op shop.
The  man who said it can't be done should not interupt the woman doing it.

Off to the hairdressers tonight.

Just about finished training our new staff member after the last one walked out on us the week before Xmas.

I’m still working on my bedroom, looking better but still a lot of clothes to sort through, I have 63 spare coathangers so far.

Not a good time for that worker to desert you Marina, hope you have better luck with the new one.

I am sure we will.  The one who left walked out, left a note on my hand over pad simply saying "I am quitting" then, during the holidays, went to Fair Work Commission and claimed a case of unfair dismissal against us!!!  Needless to say, that was not upheld in the conciliation process, but it was time consuming and very stressful for both DH and myself.

It must be relaxing feeding the bantam KAtie. I love playing with our budgie and can lose track of time doing it. He sits on my shoulder and talks in my ear.

I have been ironing and catching up on a few jobs today. It's quite warm and we have the air con on.

Marina we have a good friend who has a business.  He mainly has family working for him but needs a few others. He says they demand and then up and leave with no excuses.  He said it's very hard.
