So much to do and so little time!

We woke to a lovely sunny day this morning and no wind!!

Heather had a hair appointment at 10.00 so we had to leave at 9.30 to get into town.

I left Heather at the hairdresser and went and had a coffee sitting in the sun. I then took all the coins that Heather had counted from the piggy bank to the bank and got $120!!!

I went to the clock shop and had a new battery fitted in my watch and then back to pick Heather up.

We then went across to the Mount and walked around the base track which took about 35 minutes but it was very hot!!

We then headed back to Tauranga where I had booked high tea for us. It was more like lunch as it was 1.00. The cup of tea was good but the 'high tea' needs refining - too much filling in the sandwiches and no fruit cake and the cakes were not quite right but not a bad effort.

Then we went to give the cheque to the Cancer Society for the event Heather organised and the walk we did here. They were very happy with the donation and I had a long chat to the lady in the office about fund raising. She is Chinese but worked for the Red Cross in the UK and is now over here working for the Cancer Society.

 A quick trip to the supermarket and then back home and I was glad to be there!

I did a bit more of the knitting for Heather but it was too hot to sit on the deck so we stayed indoors. It was far more than 24 degrees on our deck!

I had to go next door and borrow a darning needle from Edwina to sew up the hat for Heather.

Jon came home and Heather went across to meet Lisa from the office to walk around the Mount again!! Jon and I had a cup of tea and I cleaned the fridge (bin day tomorrow) and made a chocolate bread pudding for dinner.

Heather came home and brought us a lovely Kea (a NZ parrot type bird) ornament to go with our other things in the garden. It is for our 33 anniversary tomorrow.

We had a lovely bbq on the deck and even at 7.00 it was still very hot.

Heather finished the hat by making two pom poms and it looks very good and I think she has done really well for a first attempt.

I had to wrap the rest of the presents for the girls for Heather to take home and now it is time for bed.

I don't think Christian Grey will be able to keep me awake tonight!!
