Change of Plans

Our new washing machine was being delivered this morning.

The only way to get a washing machine IN or OUT of our laundry, is to take the sliding door off its rails to make a space big enough. The sliding door is the entry point from outside the laundry.

Quite ridiculous that anyone can plan/design/build a house that can’t fit a washing machine through any entry point to the laundry without pulling the house apart! How the hell did that even happen?

I won’t even go into the drama that ensued from 24 hrs beforehand 🥴

So BGWLBH and I decided that it would be an excellent time to EXIT the house.

You may have read yesterday that we paid for the delivery and installation of the new machine plus the removal of the old machine.

Well Adoring Husband decided that the lads shouldn’t have to wait around while he replaced the sliding door (which he had to do before installing the machine), so, much to my chagrin, he sent them on their way.

Definitely time for me to EXIT.

Our plan was to attend Maryborough Markets, but when we got to the turn off, it was pouring rain and when we checked the BOM, the rain was settled and stationary over Maryborough, so we changed our plans.

We drove to Salt restaurant for breakfast.

I enjoyed a king prawn omelette and a sunshine bliss fresh juice while BGWLBH ate bacon and eggs with a pot of tea.

Afterwards, we browsed through the gift shop attached to the restaurant and I bought myself a new key ring.

From there we walked next door to Luxe. I must have tried on a dozen tops while BGWLBH was invited into the secret basement art area! 

She described it as beautiful art in a smelly, mouldy, unpleasant space.

We drove over to Urangan where I bought some crab meat, which meant, of course, that I needed fresh bread, because you simply can’t have fresh crab without fresh bread.

I needed a few things from the supermarket.

We browsed a few more shops and unusually so, neither of us found anything that we wanted to buy! It felt weird coming home with no goodies..

Our plan for dinner was to have salad with the leftover meat patties that I’d made last night. That was until we discovered that AH had put them in the oven while he was cleaning up in the kitchen and then forgot about them, so that’s where they stayed for about 15 hours. Seems to be a recurring theme.

So, change of plans. BGWLBH made a salad and AH cooked snags on the barbecue. I ate crab sandwiches.

My plan was to watch the football with AH, but I could barely keep my eyes open so at 7.30pm I headed to bed… yet another change of plan.

There is now 20 minutes remaining in the game and I’m ready to sleep. I tried.

Nite all.
