Meatloaf!!!

I was awake very early after a very restless night so got up as I have a lot to do and wonder how I am going to do it all over the next two weeks!!!

It was too wet to walk Tot and she was scared by the binmen anyway so no point in trying.

I went for my hospital appointment and went in straight away and all is good and the biopsy is clear so just need to go back for my usual three monthly checkup.

I went in to Tauranga to get some packing boxes for Heather and popped into a shop and found some nice leggings and a top. When I went to pay I didn't have my card and thought Heather might have used it for an Internet purchase and not put it back. The lady put the clothes to one side and I said I would call back tomorrow.

I phoned Heather but she said she had not used it so I had to try and think back to when I last used it but my brain wasn't working so I went and sat down and had a coffee and fortunately had cash to buy it. I went over what I had done yesterday and decided I must have left it at the breast cancer desk when I registered us for the walk. It was close to where I was so went down there.

A lady who used to be in Lions was at the desk today and as soon as she saw me she said we have your card here I was going to call you when I got home - phew!!! After a catch up chat with her I went back to buy my clothes.

I had a quick look around the shops for birthday presents and cards and then bought two packing boxes for Heather. We need to look into the cheapest way of sending her things back - she has far too much.

I then went to the supermarket and picked up some empty boxes for us to pack stuff in to move or 'shift' as they say here.

I got back and made pasta and sauce for Heather and I as Jon is out for lunch and we have Meatloaf concert tonight so will just have a snack.

I then went over to the book rooms and Patsy and I got stuck in to arranging the boxes for puzzles and setting out the boxes to take the magazines. Because so many books have come in lately they have just been piled up and are in such a muddle it is hard to know where to start. I think we made some progress no doubt someone will come along and have a better way of doing it and want it moving which seems to happen quite a lot.

When I got back I was so tired so had a cup of tea and then took Tot out before getting stuck into the ironing - again. I had wanted to catch up with Downton Abbey as I have three episodes to watch and another will be on tonight and I need to get them watched before we move or I will lose them but Jon came home early and put paid to my viewing.

The builder called to arrange to come on Saturday and Sunday at 10.00 I said OK much to Heather's disgust but it needs to be done.

We had a snack and went out to Tect Arena. So many people must have got the money back as it was not very full. Our tickets were standing but the seated area was not full so I managed to sit there most of the night. It was a pretty awful show and very boring, he should have stopped live shows when he was good. I hardly recognised the songs as they were that bad. It was also very loud and I had to go out as it made my head vibrate and I felt horrible. One of the door staff gave me some disposable earplugs which were very helpful and I managed to watch the rest but was glad when it ended - very sad.

Got home in five minutes even though it was raining very hard and Tot had done a wee on the carpet. I don't know how she can go all day and not do anything and then you leave her for a few hours and she does a wee!!!
