Bad But Good

Even though I felt much better this morning, it was difficult to get moving and to start my day.

I received a voice mail from the local delivery guy telling me that he had five boxes to deliver to the shop. I returned his call five times but he didn’t answer and by the time he called me back, we were already in The Bay. So I can expect a big haul on Tuesday morning.

My first stop was Tinkerbell’s on The Esplanade where I purchased this …

and I put something very similar to this on layby …

It’s pink amethyst with druzy (perfectly formed crystal growths).

From there we drove to Aquavue where we each savoured a Saltnpepper Calamari salad for an early lunch.

Bunnings was next. Six lavender plants for the garden bed near the pool gateway and a planter pot for my bedroom guardian plant.

We parked upstairs at Stocklands with the intention of visiting the two new stores that opened there last week. TJMaxx was disappointing. Their prices were higher than I expected and their range of clothing was pretty daggy.

Fresh and Save - not impressed and I doubt that I’ll return.

I was, however, excited to see a pop up Su Jus Cafe right outside so AH and I sat down to drinks and muffins.

I channelled Beautiful Girl With Long Blonde Hair and bought two white tops from Just Jeans.

On my list, I had canvases and 4 balls of 4ply cotton so I trotted across the car park to spotlight. They had no canvases and no balls of cotton in the colours that I wanted.

Bugger.

We finally left for home, but on the way, stopped at Craignish for some fresh seafood.

AH waited in the car and when I returned, he tried to start the car but it was as dead as a doornail!

Flat battery.

AH was too stressed to make the call, so I phoned RACQ and they gave us a wait time of one hour.

The RACQ truck pulled up beside us 25 minutes later. He replaced the battery and we were driving into this before the hour was even up.

We were both too buggered to be bothered with a cooked dinner so toasted lamb, tomato and onion sandwiches for AH and a prawn sandwich for me.

It’s now after 11pm and I have to be at work early to clear the art stuff from the training room so it’s sleep time for me.

Nite all.
