Day 90 - 2025.....

 Isaac slept just over 12 hours..... and has been such a good boy. He is going home after Stephs midwife appointment this morning. I am hoping to have him Wednesday and Thursday night again. As be has been sick, I have not spent to much time with him and have missed him. 

Tomorrow I am going to dads to take him grocery shopping etc..... need to pick him some more fresh tomatoes today :)

I have made a mince pasta dish in the slow cooker, so we will have enough, left over so when I get back from dads, I wont need to cook :).

April tomorrow, bloody hell this year has gone fast....

Tomatoes picked, and feijoas collected, taking enough over for my dad/sister and niece. 

Thats me for today, catch you tomorrow :)

Day 89 - 2025......

 Well today nothing exciting has happened, I have been spending the day with Isaac, he is hopefully staying the night.....

I have missed him as he was sick, I kept my distance as I didn't want to get sick and pass it onto dad..... I am going over Tuesday, with a couple of huge bags of feijoas and tomatoes. 

Oh know I forgot to post on the right day but hey O had written it but just forgot to post 

Day 88 - 2025.....

Well today has been a busy day, I got up at 5.30am and finished well more or less finished setting up my little gaming area, and sort of gone through most of the nail stuff to sell, just need to list it...... that will probably take the week. Then of course I had to try it all to make sure everything worked, and it does. I like my little space :).

And to be honest, I am tired moving things all around.....

So today is even shorter and sweeter than most days :)

Day 87 - 2025.....

OMFG - Got up at 5.30am, had me shower etc etc, came into the lounge and thought what I saw was a leaf in the lounge, (I only had my cellphone torch on), so went to turn on the light and there was a bloody dead baby mouse inside laying on the carpet, of course I did what any person would do and yelled out to David to come and get the bloody thing. Its probably all the warm piping underground etc..... god I am dreading winter now lol. 

Was just about to turn on the irrigation system, and it was drizzling, that will do for me for today - don't need to water the gardens lol. 

Today will be more sorting the nail business.... and I have a client today, well she is a friend and will continue to do her nails. I know what she likes so have kept a few polishes she likes, the good thing she likes the colours that I do. (I am keeping a small amount of stuff for my nails).

Back later :)

Well friend/client has been and gone with a huge bag of feijoas and one pear lol. 

Have not been up to much with the nail stuff, will work on it tomorrow and set up the gaming area this weekend - oh exciting lol

Thats me for today, talk tomorrow :)

Day 86 - 2025....

WTF Liam Lawson, has been kicked out of the F1 senior team, after only 2 races...... Shit the Red Bull team is harsh, hope another team picks him and gives him the respect he deserve's. 

Today will be another day of sorting out nail stuff...... I feel like its not getting any easier.....

I also need to pick some feijoas for a friend coming tomorrow to pick them up, and the tomatoes need to be picked as well... 

Back later - maybe

Day 85 - 2025.....

What the hell, where has March gone, April next week already. By the time we get cooler weather, Spring will be just around the corner.....

Gardens watered, I do them every second day now....

Today is going to be spending the day sorting out more nail stuff. I have a meat box delivery coming this morning :). 

OMG I just heard the rubbish track and had a panic I had not stuck the bin out but I did phew...... I can move fast if I need to lol. 

I am going to post this now and will be back later :)

Steph got her blood rest results back and great news, her titers have come down from her last test, they will test again in two weeks. For now it is the best possible result. She is having an HDFN baby. She will be 26 weeks this Saturday :)

And on that note I am outta here for today, I have been busy sorting through nail stuff, and have sold quite a bit at a cheap rate but hey I can deal with that :). 

Day 84 - 2025....

Well another day, I have been sorting out my nail stuff. putting some away for what I will use and going to sell the rest, that will be a huge mission. Have already sold some things, they will be going cheap as I just want to get rid of it all. 

And again another bloody hot day, I am over it........ 

Dinner is prepped, am glad about that, our kitchen gets so hot...... one of the things I want to change in this house...

Rubbish is out for tomorrow.....

Oh the ice maker arrived this morning, wonder how long that one will last.....

Just had dinner and not much else to report......

Catch you tomorrow, which will be another busy day selling more nail stuff, but did mange to get about an hour of Playsation today :)

Day 83 - 2025.....

I have discovered I need a life...... many years ago I had a life lol....

Currently watching Indycar on TV, watered the gardens - still need to do housework, but that will be done after Indycar. Well Indycar didn't go as planned, the people I support was a no go for today.....

After that I did housework, then of course I had to play some Astro..... now I am bored.... suppose I could do those cupboards, but really can't be bothered, its bloody hot again. 

I have made a decision to not go back to nails, I will keep the basics for my nails, if I ever decide to do my own nails. But my heart is no longer in it, and hasn't been for a while. It feels good to finally have made that decision. With the cost of living etc, so many nail places are closing down.... nails is one of the first luxuries people stop. 

I much prefer my cricut/craft stuff, which to be honest I have not been doing but I do enjoy it when I do, do it. 

Thats me for today

Talk tomorrow :)

Day 82 - 2025.....

Oh forgot to mention, we ordered another ice-maker yesterday, should be here Tuesday or Wednesday......

This morning, I slept in till 7am, then I played on the Playstation, I am playing Astro and love it so far :). 

After I have watched the Indycar Qualifying, which has just started, we will go and get groceries...... and then not much else planned for the day. 

Well it is much later, and Indycar watched, groceries done and have been playing more playstation. 

Tomorrow morning at 8am, Indycar is on for the race. 

Tomatoes picked for another day :)

Anyway thats me for today :)

Day 81 - 2025......

Was up at 5.45am - washing done, garden watered.... and just checked out the tomatoes - OMG we have so so many, am going to drop some at the kindy next week. 

David is working today, housework done for the week, so a cruisy day for me :).

Well today spent a bit of it with Isaac and Steph....

And then the courier dropped of a parcel for Isaac and me...... Isaac got a parcel from Holland, from my cousin that visited last month, or end of January, well this year anyway lol. 

He got a T-Shirt and some window stickers...

My parcel was a bit more exciting well for me it was, I got a Playstation, then I set it all up and will have to wait to play with it, as David is home watching sport now. 

Anyway thats me for today :) 

Day 80 - 2025.....

Friday - yippee, not that it makes any real difference to me, its just another day or two, though David is doing overtime tomorrow. 

This morning, I was up at 5am, did the housework, changed the bedding, rearranged the lounge a bit, I am a morning person.....

Once my toe heels up a little bit, I am hoping to start aqua jogging, now the nail has come off I feel in a couple of weeks I should be able to put shoes on and go swimming. It still looks pretty yukky, and don't want to get a pool infection lol. 

Have I done any wardrobes nope, that can be a job for another day or week.

Steph managed to do her pregnancy diabetic test yesterday, without vomiting, with Isaac the poor girl had the drink, then proceeded to vomit all in the waiting room, she was so nervous, though she was nauseous, she managed to not vomit lol. They also did a blood test to get the levels of her titers for her antibodies. She is 25 weeks tomorrow, he is active, so thats a good sign. 

Just had a feed of passionfruit, down to the last few, I am going to miss them. 

Thats me for now, might be back but more than likely not lol. 

Day 79 - 2025.....

 Oh yesterday it was hump day and I forgot to mention it......

Now onto today.....

Drop Isaac of at kindy... then maybe start the cupboard, I opened it yesterday and thought nah, seemed too big of a job and went and played Nintendo Switch instead lol. Not sure if Isaac will be staying tonight, but I said this morning after having such a good sleep, 7pm - 7am, that he could have a toy. Toy got......

It is bloody cold today, and am actually loving it :)

Have just had a lovely feed of feijoas - yummmmm :)

Will post this now, maybe back later if anything exciting happens, or I will see you tomorrow :)

Day 78 - 2025....

Finally - my toe nail came off, the one I dropped a huge desk top on, a while ago..... I am pleased :)

I removed my nails today, I don't think I like longer nails right now.....

Washing done, housework done, am hoping to start on a hall cupboard today, when we moved, I basically threw everything in there and shut the doors, ok they are not quite that bad, but I am sure with a tidy up I can empty some shelves for more junk lol. 

Isaac is here for the night, not sure if he is staying tomorrow night or not yet.......

Was planning an exciting post, but sadly that didnt happen lol

Catch you tomorrow :)

Day 77 - 2025.....

 Today I don't need to water gardens, we had rain through the night yippee..... though it didn't cool the heat down, or improve the mugginess..... I have said it before and will no doubt say it again, ROLL ON BLOODY AUTUMN.....

This morning, I need to go to JB Hi Fi, my xbox controller, needs replacing and I need a new one for my Nintendo Switch - so thats exciting lol. 

Tonights dinner is a pie I got from the supermarket yesterday so nice and easy, then tomorrow and Thursday night I have Isaac for 2 nights.....

Tomato haul for today...... what can you do with tomatoes.... might need to google....

Well bloody hell the rain didn't last long this afternoon, in fact it seems hotter than normal, well more muggy than before the rain. 

And feijoas are dropping like flies, we already have to many and its only the beginning of the season. Going to see what I can possibly make with them....

Anyway thats me...

Catch you tomorrow :)

Day 76 - 2025.....

 Well lets see if we can have a bit more of a positive day...

We will start of with the negatives and get them out the way..... the icemaker broke down :(. We use ice in everything).... so thats rather depressing....

Well the rest of the day was blah..... did some housework, prepped dinner (Nachos), yip really exciting. 

Thats me.....

Day 75 - 2025.....

Am feeling so stressed, think it is a combination of Stephs high pregnancy risk, having an HDFN (Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn) pregnancy. Dad not doing well, and stress in this house....

Am going to cook steak for dinner tonight.......

Thats me, didnt sleep well last night, so going to have an early dinner and go to bed....

Day 74 - 2025.....

Today has been ok, went to visit, dad - while the district nurse was there (they come daily), we went and got groceries and some fish n chips for lunch, thats what dad wanted.... he loved all the fruit, glad he gets to enjoy it this year :). 

Tonight for dinner it is left over chicken and mushroom pie......

Thats it for me, I am buggered.....

Day 73 - 2025....

Well the weekend is nearly upon us, tomorrow we are going to visit dad, do his groceries etc..... Have picked him some tomatoes to take over and giving him some Feijoas, Pears (Oh yes a few pears are nearly ready, he can ripen them up fully on the bench), and some feijoas, don't have a lot but it will last him, till our next visit. 

Dads tomatoes freshly picked :), will pick some more tomorrow morning before we leave. 

Tonight for dinner, I am going to make a chicken and mushroom pie, never made one so wish me luck.... lol. Going to make the inside of the pie soon, before it gets to hot, and then all I need to do tonight is put it together :). Actually just remembered I have a pie maker, that will make it better, just need to find it hmmmmm.... 

Chicken done and it is bloody nice, not sure if I will make it into a pie or do it with mashed potatoes and veggie's. Doesn't look the greatest but it tastes bloody nice :). 

Mum passed away 20 years ago today at 3.10pm, I had the pleasure of holding her hand as she left us. I still miss her, we were so close. 

Catch you tomorrow :)

Day 72 - 2025.....

Today I have a nail client, I only do a few that have been with me since day 1, and I know they understand if I need to cancel to go to dad's at the last minute etc.... Now done...

Today have cleaned the bathrooms, about to vacuum, talk to dad on Skype, as I do every morning.... vacuuming done....

I cancelled the old gym and joined the Aquatic Centre, my membership starts on the 6th April or is it the 3rd, sometime in the first week in April. In the meantime, I am hoping I can get of my lazy arse and start walking....

Oh and my stomach bug or whatever it was is now no longer... thank god. Really didn't want to cancel my nail client. 

I had such a crap sleep last night, it was hot one minute then cold the next..... David is home today gggrrrrrr.

Catch you tomorrow :)

Day 71 - 2025.....

Hump day is here once again......

Today I need to clean the fridge out and get it in the garage today, it is bugging me sitting in the dining room area. Fridge done......

Gardens have been watered...... keep hoping for rain, also tomato harvest is done for the day.

Hoping like I hell I don't have a tummy bug or eaten something off, I have spent most of the last few hours on the loo. 

Signing off for now - catch you tomorrow.

 

Day 70 - 2025......

 Today not much to report, did have the first feijoas, most were ok, but in a couple of weeks they should be perfect. 

Had a rough night with Isaac, and the drop of to kindy was not the best..... he is out of sorts again, just wants his mum. 

Was going to clean the fridge, but it can be done tomorrow., then it will go out in the garage. 

Have been rearranging the lounge a bit this morning, and also changing the kitchen gadgets around to give me a bit more bench space, so will see how that feels over the next few weeks. 

Oh man and now I have put the fans away, it has got bloody warm again...... we do have a huge ceiling fan which is helping. 

And thats me for the day, catch you tomorrow.

Day 69 - 2025.....

Today I am cancelling the gym membership and joining the Aquatic Centre, it has a small gym attached and only costs an extra $3.00 a week and I can use the pool when ever. 

Isaac ended up not staying the night, he had a fall and all he wanted was his mum... so he went home.

Oh we got a fridge and it is being delivered today, nothing fancy and our fridge will go in the garage as a spare fridge. 

Fridge arrived.... its about 3cm smaller width wise so just gives us that bit of extra room to open the door. 

Our first feijoas dropped of the tree, Steph and I went halves so we got double the amount, and we are down to our last few passionfruit now. These are both my favourite fruit ever....

Our Tomato harvest for the day.... 

Its time to start giving the tomatoes away soon, we are getting far to many.....

Dad is losing a lot of movement in his left arm, its so sad seeing him losing his independence. 

Anyway thats me for today, catch you tomorrow. 

Day 68 - 2025.....

Today Isaac is coming for the night, Steph has a scan tomorrow afternoon, so he can stay till after that appointment. 

We also hope to get out and look at fridges, in fact I should start looking online, we are wanting a skinnier one, our fridge gap is tight.

Fridge purchased, getting delivered tomorrow.....

Groceries done....

Isaac here.....

Now going as I am spending time with him :)

Day 67 - 2025.....

Another weekend is here.....

Today did my nails, will try and remember to take a pic tomorrow. 

Isaac has been for a visit.....

David worked....

Gardens watered......

Washing done......

And I think thats it....

Better post before I forget.....

Day 66 - 2025......

Another week is nearly over, David is working tomorrow, think I will do my nails tomorrow, they have not been done for a few weeks.

Isaac had an awesome sleep, asleep by 7pm and woke up at 7am, and his room was nice and warm :). I had just dozed off last night and then a cat fight was happening on our roof, which set the dogs off....... grrrrrr, it took me ages to get back to sleep. 

Isaac has gone home now, and the house is always so quiet, my god that kid can talk lol. But I feel so privileged that I can spend time with him daily...... well most of the time, he has just come out of a growth spurt, and boy he was a horror,  but the nice little man has returned :). 

Not a lot else to report, but so much for Autumn, it has gone hot again......

Catch you tomorrow :)

Day 65 - 2025....

Another day.....

Today I am going/done all the housework, Isaacs coming for tonight, so want to be able to give him all my attention when he is here. I will pick him up from kindy....

Gardens watered.....

Vacuuming done....

OMG Autumn is here, this morning, I moved all the fans to the garage. I have even turned on Isaacs heater in the room, and it costs us nothing to heat the house :). We are getting as low as 7 degrees tomorrow morning :). We got 8 degrees today and it said it felt like 4 degrees and I felt it lol. 

Now have the heater in the lounge on - ohhhh think I am going to enjoy winter. Think I might even use the thermal plunge pool soon - maybe on the weekend.

Catch you tomorrow :)

Day 64 - 2025......

 Hump day once again, where the hell is time going.....

Did I make biscuits yesterday - no maybe today :)

Dit it rain yesterday, yes it did last night, yay, and we are only going to get to about 18 degrees today, double yay.

Did I pick tomatoes yesterday, no but did this morning. 

This is from our dead plant, we have so many on our living plant will get those tomorrow.

Today not much happening, got the rubbish bins in, they get picked up just after 7am, real early, so they need to go out the night before.... I am sure one day some little punks, will tip them over...... Washing is on.... oh need to list some clothes on marketplace. Have a skirt with matching top and the skirt is to long and it seems a shame to hem the skirt, with the border. 

Biscuits made... don't look the best but they are bloody lovely :)

Will give some Steph as well.....

And thats me for the day, talk tomorrow :)

Day 63 - 2025......

 Tuesday is here......

Today I did Isaac's room, I have neglected Isaacs room for a long time, he is pretty good about keeping it tidy,  but I just put everything back in the right boxes etc.... and got rid of a huge box of toys, he no longer needs out and put them in a cupboard. 

It is suppose to rain today, I hope it does, its been so hot and it is Autumn, come on cooler weather. The temp is suppose to be a lot cooler for the next few days yay :).

Dinner is cooked, and just needs to be reheated yay.....

I am thinking of doing some baking, making some choc chip cookies.... but will see how I feel in a bit......

Washing is done and in the dryer.....

Need to go and pick some tomatoes...

And thats it for now....

Its much later in the day and this cooler weather is bliss, I feel so much more motivated, though I did not go to the gym, maybe tomorrow, I am bloody nervous, the first time back ina long while is always scary. 

And no bloody rain....... 

Day 62 - 2025...

Yesterday I saw a teeny tiny mouse, run into our sunroom, hopefully it has gone out again, as the door has been open all day.....

Just finished watching Indycar, NZ came 2nd and 4th and 24th :). 

Should have gone to the gym, remembered about 2pm and by then it was too hot.......

Not much else to report, it has been to hot to do anything today, the next few days are suppose to be cooler thank god.....

Day 61 - 2025...

I have woken up feeling pretty back to normal now..... a couple of good nights sleep thank god.

I have just been out checking the gardens..... our last cucumber I think for real this time :). A few small tomatoes with hundreds more ready to pick. And a couple of apples, have no idea if they are ripe but thought I would pick them lol.

Our feijoas are growing slowly, not many on this tree but out the back by Steph her tree is huge and probably 4 times our tree if not more. It has hundreds and hundreds of fruit on it. 

And then I walked past this thing, a field pumpkin (I think, well thats what the app tells me lol). Have to learn when it is actually ready and what to do with it. 

Today we are going shopping more than likely for a fridge, something narrower and maybe taller, as our kitchen is small the one we have is slightly to wide, it fits but getting out shelves and fruit draws to clean is a real pain...... this one will go into the garage as a spare for both us and Steph. 

Indycar qualifying has just started, so that means this is me for more than likely today lol. 

Day 60 - 2025.....

And just like that March is here....

Weigh in - lost 1.5 kilos this month, and now down 30.4 Kilos (66.4lbs),slowly but surly getting there. 

I slept so well last night, bones are still a little weary lol, I really need to get back to the gym next week, hopefully Monday :)

Oh and even better news, Indycar season starts this weekend.......

Thats it from me - short and boring lol
