What a quiet day

After a really good night's sleep I woke at 9.30 which is very unusual for me but non the less enjoyable!!

Jon had only woken at 8.30 so I was not too far behind and after a cup of tea and a banana, still trying to lose those pounds, I was ready to take Tot out and she decided that she wanted a walk today so all good.

We then went into Tauranga and had a coffee at our usual place and although Jon wanted a muffin I manged to resist - how good am I????

We then had a look around the shops and Jon bought some shirts in the sale and I found some nice black trousers and a lovely skirt in the sales - real bargains. On the way back to the car we stopped in at the shop where I thought I had left my cards and low and behold there they were so really pleased about that/

We then went to the DIY shop and bought an indoor plant for our shelf above the breakfast bar. I find 'hous plants' are not big here as so much grown easily in the garden their is not much choice. I did find some very 'real' looking lavender for our bathroom, the 'house plants' we will work on.

On the way home we stopped in to Sharon's and left them a poncho and a rain hood as they are both so worried about their holiday in Fiji and all the floods that have been shown on TV so it was a bit of a joke and they took it very well. I am sure they will be fine and if there was a real problem the NZ government would stop people travelling there.

We had lunch when we got back and then Jon cleaned Heather's car ready for sale and I sat in the garden and read my book - shame on me!!!

I cooked some very nice duck breasts for dinner with raspberries and ice cream and grated chocolate for pudding - yum!

After dinner Jon went to bed and I decided to go and sit in the garden with my coffee. Unfortunately, Totty found a tiny baby hedgehog and would not leave it alone and the bugs were attacking me something awful so I came inside again. I really should have used the insect repellent!!

And now it is bedtime again - bliss.
