Wednesday

Jon was up very early this morning and Heather called and managed to have a chat with him before he went to work.

Once he had left I had a chat to Heather which will be the last one before she goes on holiday this weekend but not before she has been down to Brighton for a hen party. Oh to be young and single!

I was due over at Bronwyn's for coffee so had to get a move on.

When I arrived Bronwyn was on Skype to her granddaughter who is like a little china doll with lots of curly hair but she went very shy once I came in.

We had coffee sitting out on the deck and it was really warm.

Jon rang me to say he was test driving a car and where was I so that I could have a look. He brought it round to Bronwyn's house and we had a drive up the road. It is a Lancer and only has 18,000km on the clock, still in warranty and is very nice.

It seems the only other car the company have and are willing to provide at the moment is an old Mazda so between that or the ute we would not get out much at the weekends so we decided to buy our own and claim mileage. Buying the Lancer if we have it for six months it shouldn't lose too much so we went for it and Jon got a bit more off so he is now happy.

I eventually left Bronwyn's to come home with another big bag of grapefruit so I think I might make some marmalade as we are staying!

I didn't have much time as I was due at the book rooms so I quickly hung out my washing which I should have done earlier and then had some lunch.

By the time I had done all my bits and was about to go out I could see rain coming over from the hills so had to bring my washing in again and hang it in the garage - what a waste of time!

When I got to the book rooms I told the ladies I was staying and they were all very pleased.

I spent the rest of the afternoon sorting out boxes to put the ever increasing supplies of magazines into ready for the sale. We also had to clear a space for the records so a lot of lifting.

I left to go to the post office and then the supermarket and was annoyed as I had forgotten my list!

By the time I got home the rain was starting to fall and was quite heavy with very grey skies.

Jon came home and is happy with the car amazing how fast they sorted it out.

We had dinner and I fell asleep in front of the TV again. You can tell I am back to doing all my activities again as I had stopped sleeping in front of the TV when Jon was not working and I was not doing so much.

When it came to bedtime I was wide awake and so I took the opportunity to phone my sister as I haven't spoken to her for a very long time. We talked till after midnight but I thought I ought to get my blog done but now I need to go to bed!
