Hi ho hi hi it’s off to bed i go


Big  day my friends,i am trying to catch up and getting not much done hahahaa..I have been getting my crochet on which with four cats is no mean feat…all those balls of wool beggin for trouble…

I found a single bed tartan doona cover at a thrift shop for 5 dollars so the plan is to re do the pups bed covers…almost done…well kinda…

I have a big meeting tomorrow and am making little headway in the house cleaning department..

I did manage to make two delicious leek tomato and cheese quiches got my pastry hat on and whipped them up in no time..did my shopping…blegggh..had some road rage…got some pruning and weeding done played with the pooches and now it’s bedtime..

I leave you with a picture to help you relax for the day ..have a good one folks 🙂

What you looking at lady?

  2. That’s a super idea! And we are fans of tartan. We made a doggy bed too once… but dad said: ewww a bodybag! He has neither class or style… Have sweet dreams and a relaxing night :o)

  21. Good morning Bev!!! Another beautiful day in the neighborhood!! I think a Staurday in the garden is perfect!
    It is wet snowing here still & chilly. I did look at the wee garden & it is thoroughly destroyed. The Ivy is smashed & broken & the mini rose bushes are probably all dead with broken branches….
    I surrender! Winter forever…. 😉
    Sorry I have not been around; Sinusitis & fatigue & Fibro.
    Still not 100% but trying to make a dent in blog reading…
    Love Sherri-Ellen xo
    P.S.: A month since Flight 370 went down; will we ever know what really happened?

    • I do hope the snow thaw reveals some hope for the rose…either heat or snow not good for the poor garden,mine has survived at great cost both money and work..and needs so TLC..i have some sugar cane mulch to put down and when I won first for my Apple oie I got not only a certificate but a 50 dollar voucher for the nursery..so I will pop over today and I would love to get a strawberries and cream Hydrangea …with a bit of luck it would get a good foothold before winter and be strong by next summer..smoke is all over from Department of Enviroment burn offs ..we can’t burn off yet and have so much to do…dang! I am sorry you have been so crook..i have been MIA too but with fluff to do.try and take a good break my sweet …and I don’t know about this plane my friend we have families here on our country wanting answers too and the area is so inhospitable..not to mention the geyer of trash that the is mistaken for plane debris..also as a world we should be ashamed that this rubbish tip exists in our oceans…there is another one on the other side of the world that I saw a doco about once…terrible… Love Bev xx.

  22. I agree we should be appalled at the oceans debris…we are posioning our planet…sad….
    Great now you have smoke from burn offs…more smoke…lovely….NOT!
    As for the garden I hope you can fix yours; mine is beyond fixing & I do not have the $$$ to replace those plants….sigh….what a shite Winter this has been….
    Sorry I am in a bit of a funk….I am supposed to help a friend pack tomorrow but I am too tired…might have to cry off…
    Hope you have a good day…I am going to watch HEART BEAT & have a cuppa…

      • 😉 I am going to do that…ask for cuttings…I am not going to stress about the garden as there is still so much snow on the ground.
        I had a cuppa & watched “Heartbeat” & Nylablue joined me & we had a lovely time.
        Went & helped a freind pack today & I am all in; I tell you to pace yourself & I overdo it, hahaha!!!
        So having a cuppa & watching back to back “Inspector Morse” (2 of the ones made b4 John Thaw died…I have never seen them b4).
        How was your day?

      • Well then, I wish you a slow and sustained rain! (As opposed to a torrential downpour that will wash everything, even the roos, away!).

        Getting close to 100 degrees here now, and it’s only April. Not looking good for us this summer! And we haven’t seen rain in a long time either.

        • Damn you may be in for a crappy summer..our top end has had a cyclone which is a bit late in the season..we had 50mm rain and now nothing…last winter it was cold but little rain..we just want slow and steady because as you know the dry ground just can’t cope with a deluge..just washes everything away…it was nice to see the roos with wet coats for a change! this summer has seen our floorboards split and separate…another damn thing to deal with that summer has left..i do hope your summer isn’t a bitch!!

  28. I look like Quasimoto when my Chiropractor works on the trigger points….once the pain passes I can straighten up!! You know how the Docs say we need to have 11 of 18 points (weird it is an uneven # isn’t it?) Well I started out at 14 when I was diagnosed when I was 27….my God I have had Fibro for 31 years!!! YIKES!!
    Codeine helps with the flares. I got a fairly good sleep also.
    I got up at 8:30 a.m. for flat inspection…I want to go to Post Office….but I am not sure I am going to go….It iz freezing outside & I might just stay in where it is warm!
    How are you feeling today Bev??

  29. I hear you Bev…you have BP issue too?? Mine started 2-3 yrs ago. I can not move around enough to get heart racing….

    Ok I must dash…Chiro appt today! Wish me luck, lol..

  30. Oh Bev I am much the same. Have been 110/70 all my Life…then it went to 150/85!!! I was like WTF??? Sorry but that is what I said when I saw those numbers! Sounds like yet another effect of Fibro….grrrrrrr…..
    I have tried 5 different meds & am back on Diovan (Valsartan) & it has brought BP down sort of to 130/76 range…my Doc does not seem to want to add another med…(I don’t blame her; my stomach is very sensitive to meds…)
    I watch salt intake & try to not get stressed out….
    Went for a 2 block walk today; ahhh yeah that was a bust!!! Between the screaming knee that needs to be replaced & my S-I Joints/Pelvic bones stabbing pain it was not a great time at all 😦
    Maybee I should try roller blading, hahahaha!!!

    • Oh the screaming knee..i can relate…mne has been operated on but it has very little cartlage left behind the knee after a scrape…mind you the pics the ortho took inside my knee when he did the lateral release look totally cool!! my kneecap looked like a jellyfish with all the shredded bits dangling bwahaaha but he did say they couldn’t do it again as their is not much left to scrape..eventually it will need to be a replacement….old bionic me I think…Steve Austin eat ya heart out….avoid rollerblading…..bwahahahahha 🙂 hugs Bev xxxx

  31. Your knee too Bev?? I have no cartilage left; 2 kindz of cysts; Arhtirits & something else…
    I am bone on bone…so the right one should be replaced & left one needs Laproscopic surgery. I asked for the Lap procedure to at least stabilize my left knee as it is supposed to be my ‘good’ knee. Surgeon refused. Then my knee replacement put on hold due to BP issue….I may never be able to get any surgery on knees which would put me in a wheelchair….now THAT would cramp my style!
    LOL ok avoid rollerblading….. 😉
