Rainy Wet and Damp

A little giggle…

This photo was taken in 1946. This guy was Ken Shimizu. He was 35 years old that time. He has 2 children. Shimizu never runs. Sleeps late. Eats whatever he wants. Even drinks beer instead of water. Eats dinner with different kinds of food every night. What does Shimizu do to get such a body? Shimizu doesn't have any secrets. Shimizu is the person sitting in the bottom left corner of the photo. As for the man standing in the middle, I'm not sure.

Haha.

I had a late start this morning and didn’t rise until 9am.

After I made breakfast for BGWLBH and sampled my chicken bone broth from the slow cooker, I took Harley out to play.

Adoring Husband drove into The Bay to run some errands before the rain set in.

We had 60mm last night and it’s been raining heavily all afternoon and evening today.

Today I made up a batch of Harley food with beef mince, lightly boiled vegetables, raw egg, best mates powder and pet hemp oil.

I batched and froze 14 containers of chicken bone broth.

Yesterday I made 1.2 litres of colloidal silver.

I also spent a lot of time in front of the TV watching recorded I’m a Celeb, an old Western “Once Upon a Time in the West” with Henry Fonda and Charles Bronson and three games of footy.

I made the marinade and AH cooked the chicken tonight - usually our Friday night fare but we had leftovers on Friday night so as not to waste the food.

We are in the final minutes of the Broncos vs Raiders game and I’m ready for bed. Broncos are winners!

Oh! I have to share that Vegan Chickie met Alice Cooper in Melbourne last night! I’m so excited and so jealous!

Nite all.

Change of Date

Dr McCullough (interesting interview)

DBS date has changed to 22nd May to give us some breathing room for all the ‘things’ we need to plan.

Nothing to report except Best Cousin in the World came to visit yesterday and as always, it was a great visit. She brought a freshly baked sour dough loaf that she had baked that morning … 

… and a handful of lovely essential oils for Harley and for me.

She also gifted me a sourdough starter so that I can make my own bread! I can’t wait.

It is currently absolutely PELTING down rain as I write this. I can hardly hear myself think!

Now it’s time to sleep.

Nite all.

Date is Set

DBS is set for 1st May.

There is paperwork galore.

Plans to be made.

Accommodation to be booked.

Transport to be planned.

Funds to be found.

I had a day in The Bay today.

Twisted my ankle outside Nana’s Pantry. I had a big glass bottle of Castor Oil in each hand and as I fell forward I had to avoid the concrete blocks that stop cars from parking on the footpath.

Luckily BGWLBH was there to soften my fall. I did not break the bottles or damage my body in any way, but it gave both of us a hell of a fright!

My sunglasses flew off and slid under the car.

I survived.

We attempted to have breakfast at Aquavue because we know they have new owners, but we discovered that their kitchen was closed for the day.

It was a very busy morning for us, we finished with a juice from Su Jus cafe and were home well before 2pm - just in time to receive an important phone call from a member of Adoring Husbands surgical team.

The next hour was filled with the phone call, filling out paperwork and listening to AH yabber on about everything.

Now I need to sleep.

Nite all.

Crabby

Adoring Husband had an optometrists appointment in the Bay today so I cashed him up and requested (if he was feeling strong and healthy enough) that he head over to Urangan and purchase two bags of crab meat from the fresh seafood place.

He was kind enough (and strong and healthy enough) to do exactly that for me and I was able to enjoy a fresh crab meat sandwich for lunch.

AH has ordered some new glasses and apparently has signs of cataracts.

I’d give you a list of all of his ailments and problems but I want to finish this post before midnight and you have better things to do. Haha.

I folded a lot of washing and handed my ironing to BGWLBH.

Tacos and nachos for dinner.

I’m feeling a bit weary now.

Nite all.

Less Rest

I am almost up to date with my washing.

There is one footy jumper, one rainbow jumpsuit, two silk tops and a blue cover all remaining. All but the footy jumper require hand washing.

I didn’t get to my art space and watched a Miley Cyrus movie instead.

There was Harley play.

Roast lamb, baked vegetables and home made gravy for dinner.

For a late breakfast I made myself some pork and cabbage rice paper rolls fried in olive oil. They were so good, I ate seven of them with sweet chilli dipping sauce.

Adoring Husband was out for five hours mowing lawns for work.

We watched the footy this afternoon.

Now it’s time to sleep.

Nite all.
