3408 | Hello all.. :-) A lovely time last night, delicious roast dinner and goodies with friends to watch the wedding.. saw in another thread the recipe for the Chocolate Biscuit Cake William chose as part of their wedding cake - made it and took it for supper.. rather moreish - and tiny pieces needed as it's very rich. I just read our local newspaper from yesterday - one front cover story is about a couple who have yesterday celebrated their golden wedding - the lady said she had her wedding dress out recently - and it still fits.. good for her.. Their recipe for success for a long marriage - 'keeping active, staying positive and 'living for the day'...' a fabulous success.. My thoughts are with you all there in Canterbury - how are you all there?.. sending hugs.. x juliewn - 2011-04-30 15:43:00 |

3417 | Greetings all. Cooks I was sad to read about your poor chooks-have you bought more? Charlieb and Ali, thanks for messages. I have been to the batch a bit, son is getting the section how he wants it, amazing what you can do with a chain and a tow bar. The kids(and parents) and cat love it there and they are lucky to have neighbours with young hildren who live there permanently. I am playing more Bridge as the weather worsens. Charlie, very pleased your time away went well, Ali your DD is starting her 5th winter in a row I think-pleased she has an Auckland job. Toady, you are amazing once you start to diet, Maggie is the other one who has it rolloing off once she sets to it-will she give you a challenge? Mine is slow and fairly steady with over 13KGs gone (again!!) That is 4 months worth and I feel there should be a quicker return but it is OK. Have gone from loose 1st belt notch to the 4th which makes for happiness. Hope all those struggling with health issues are coming out on top. Lovely weekend in Wgtn for the Vit D intake. marywea - 2011-05-01 11:24:00 |
3418 | Should be "bach" NOT batch!! marywea - 2011-05-01 11:25:00 |
3419 | I have no Mt Washmore. I have been keeping on top of things. i can guarantee after holidays it will come back. I think my next lot of holidays will be less stressful as I won't be studying. Edited by jcprotea at 11:34 am, Sun 1 May jcprotea - 2011-05-01 11:33:00 |

3421 | I hate having washing sitting around. I like to try and be semi organised. Not I think it is going to get harder this part of the term as a lot more work is involved and I am thinking I am going to need to see a doctor about how I am feeling etc. Hope things are a bit less stressful for you this term jc.[/quote] jcprotea - 2011-05-01 17:24:00 |
3422 | Charlie, good to c u back safe & sound, I am sure there'll be lots of mums tackling their 'mt washmores" after the end of school holidays. I had some lovely me time to day, exploring the district, went to a market that I'd been meaning to go to. No rain just very windy there. Drove past an old hospital which is now an estate of 1 acre blocks with houses built on each block.. The old hospital is now a training centre. i spoke to a lovely lady walking her dog. Lovely to see a post from Mary. Edited by 510 at 5:56 pm, Sun 1 May 510 - 2011-05-01 17:52:00 |

I appreciate the thoughts of Prayers in church. Just recently I have changed my belief system but due to personal reasons I can not practice anything at home. This is why my friendship with my friend from Brazil is important. He is my spiritual sounding board. jcprotea - 2011-05-01 20:39:00 |

3429 | Morning morning... Hope everyone had a great weekend.. I certainly did. Didn't go for my walk this morning as the weather is lousy which means it's in the Gym for circuits which I loathe. Its too tough on my joints and I just hate it and I don't have to do it if i don't want to.... Did you see my virtual foot stomping tantrum then lol.. Well its a new week and its May!.. the year is just flying by. Miss 16 will soon be 17 and has her ball coming up early June so let the preparation begin.... She has a fabulous dress that needs a little alteration so that it fits her perfectly (and being strapless thats critical so it stays up lol) so we are off to the dressmakers tonight.. apart from that nothing much planned this week. Have a great day everyone toadfish - 2011-05-02 06:16:00 |

3431 | Morning everyone, One of todays goals is to make something for a small raffle, the person that wins the last raffle provides the next one. As I won the last one, it is now my turn 510 - 2011-05-02 07:34:00 |
3432 | JC, my belief system is my own adaption, & is still evolving The theme yesterday started off with the excitement of the royal wedding & the challenges, that they will each have to deal with individually & as a couple in their life together. The message went on to be about how recharging ones batteries is important to cope with every day stresses in modern life. Got me thinking about my relationship with one of my besties who I have purposedly taken a step back from, as it had become unhealthy for both of us. I love her like a sister, & still want her in my life in a differnt way. Enough of my waffle, Have the best day possible everyone. 510 - 2011-05-02 08:26:00 |

3445 | am sure you have clothes airers, I wanted the one that looked like a mini retangle and was on hooks up in the ceiling as heat rises, we have just had a heat pump guy in as we just need to tweak our heating as our kitchen is in a very large area its a hard one to heat so looking at putting one in and a ducting system out of the main lounge were the gas fireplace is and putting a few outlets in the computer room - should be good. auckland_ali - 2011-05-03 08:21:00 |
3446 | Morning everyone. Motorbo, all the best for the shift, & the transition of adjusting to your new job, & life style. We shifted last year, I was in 2 minds & anxious about moving from our home of 21 years. I now realise it was the best thing we did. Have met lots of new interesting people, who I am sure will be come good friends. I love the slower pace of life. DH & I joke that we spent 33 years living around his place place, so now it is time to spend the rest of our life together out near where I lived I from my birth until the age of 17. Charlie, sometimes when I look at my pile of washing I think of you and the term washmore. At the moment I have a to be done Mt Washmore. That term might be your contribution to the NZ slang dictionary LOL Last night I had a very enjoyable evening with some new friends, I am just getting to know them more. Lots of laughs, we started off with a wedding quiz, great way to break the ice. I am meeting 2 of them on Thursday. Now that my work is home based & I don't have children at home, I am now taking a different track to have meaningful people in my life I have joined different groups of interests & hobbies. Still wanting to find a course that is stimulating for my brain, as well as being good for my soul. Edited by 510 at 9:15 am, Tue 3 May 510 - 2011-05-03 09:08:00 |
3447 | thanks 510, where did you move from and to? im going to be approx an hour from my son when i move, it will be so nice to see him more than 3 times a year, though i wont live in his back pocket! lol charlieb2, it was horrid here yesterday and then omg the sun is out today so hope it stays so i can do some washing! EA and cinny hope your feeling better motorbo - 2011-05-03 09:45:00 |
3448 | Ali, how great that you both appreciate each other, may you have many more happy years together. A friend had her first date with husband for his leavers school ball, amazing. Anyone else marry someone from school days? Hope you enjoy your sister's stay-will brother be there for it? Lots of rain in the night but sunny now. Motorbo, best wishes for yor move and new life. Good that your move was a happy decision Ann. marywea - 2011-05-03 10:01:00 |
