Our house must have been very hot last night as every window had condensation on this morning!!! Jon's car was very white and he should have parked under the tree!!
Heather called for a quick chat this morning to tell me how things are going, Kirsty is going to call me in the morning.
I got ready and went to collect Bronwyn. They are finally putting the top surface on the main road so there was a detour this morning so it took me a bit longer to get across to Maungatapu.
We stopped at the post office as I needed to send a parcel and then we went into town and had a coffee. I was very good and resisted the lovely date scone, and almond croissants and all the other lovely pastries and just had a coffee.
After a walk round the shops and Bronwyn bought a jacket from Wallis I took her to her hair appointment and her husband will pick her up later. She gets her moon boot off on Friday and so will be able to drive again and is really looking forward to it.
I got home and took Tot out and then had some lunch and left again for my optician's appointment. As usual there was no change in my prescription, been the same for years so I was able to order my contact lens. They have a new system and you can order on line and believe it or not they come from the UK and are cheaper than the ones from Oz!! They have free postage and packing offer at the moment so I ordered a whole year and save $30 and the years lens are only about 80GBP so very cheap.
I had a look in Farmers, our only department store, and I found a nice coat. I have been looking for sometime now but as I didn't want black it was difficult. This one is navy herringbone and not too heavy and it was in the sale and only $60 so a real bargain. I also found a nice skirt that will travel well and be very useful to roll up and still look good.
I got home in time to change into my 'easy to undress clothes' for my osteopath appointment and off i went again. Totty was very confused with all my coming and going.
She was a bit more gentle today as I told her it was very painful last time. I have an appointment for next week. It is a little better but by no means is it right. Only a couple more sessions so fingers crossed.
I lit the fire when I got back and had a cup of tea and then bought some books for my eReader ready for our trip. I have been reading the Anne of Green Gables series and a lot of them are free to download but I needed to go onto Wikipedia to find out the correct order. I think I have them all now. I thought I had downloaded Fifty Shades of Grey as it appears in my library list although I have not been billed for it but it is only the front cover of it, a bit of advertising I think - as if it needs any!!!! I am all set with my holiday reading now with a few by Maeve Binchy and two by Penny Vincenzi I think that is more than enough.
Jon stayed at the office all day today and is now feeling really well and not so tired so all good.
I cooked the dinner and we watched the TV programme about Mo Molem which was very good.
I finally managed to book our tickets to visit Buckingham Palace when we are home. Quite a difficult site to work your way around but it is all done now and I just hope we have a fine day for it.
