| 3611 | I am on a mission to get my kitchen under control - Georgie -Porgy is *so* messy (-: Anyway last night I lost the cutting blade for the food processor and wandered around the house looking for it. Eventually I gave up and went to bed. This morning I found it in the hot water cupboard where i had put it to ensure it dried properly and I found the big casserole dish in the garage the other day. Sometimes I wonder about my memory. Charlie, there's a special spot in heaven for punsters. calista - 2011-05-18 17:44:00 |

| 3613 | Morning lovely people. I have been making flax flowers for years... when things are tight and its someones birthday we raid the local shopping mall that has masses of flax 2 sides and make a bunch of flax flowers.. they look great dried out and in a vase. I have some in my entry way that I made years ago.. wonder if our are the same type Winnie... if not we can trade skills. Well personally I am sick of getting wet & cold. Monday morning saw me get soaked to the skin on my walk.. and cold, then yesterday morning the same thing happened on my bike... Then I just can't seem to warm through.. takes till about lunchtime for my bum to defrost... am seriously thinking of some thermal granny knickers lol. The good new is though both mornings I worked out for an hour.. so thats got to be good for me. The new girl at work is terrified that I will catch a cold and have time off and she will have to fly solo lol. Yes the book does seem huge Ali... and again lots this way... will make my list when I get a mo.. and promise to send yours sooner... You have to be really careful with those sites.. they are so tempting, you have to make sure its something you would normally do. Waggamamma is on treat me to day... I could get 2 for $30 that would but us $60 food.. but we are unlikely to go there in the next 3 months in the normal run of things.. plus I have the entertainment vouchers.. plus we also have the treat chinese one to use.. so will be giving that one a miss.... Got a good deal on Yazoom yesterday... When they had a local Howick Cafe I sent the link to all my friends and 2 people must have joined and brought it.... so I have $20 yazoom dollars to spend... so sushi for Miss 18 yesterday instead of $4 was free,, and I also have $16 left...mmm wonder what todays is lol. Well its Thursday already..... made a large pot of soup for dinner tonight (last night - always better after its sat isn't it)... think we will have that with Paninis.... Plus I have some massive news (well it is to me) but won't share it on here in case I jinx it but feel free to text and I'll share... lol Have a great day all, JB Edited by toadfish at 7:01 am, Thu 19 May toadfish - 2011-05-19 06:58:00 |

| 3615 | Hi Everyone.. cold here too.. last night was our first cold night - lit the fire for the first time and glad to have it.. looked outside about 3am - to see a white frost.. amazing as yesterday was quite warm, today has been short sleeves warm, have a feeling another frost tonight though.. it'll make my Jerusalem Artichokes taste good. Good on all the well-known people from all the TV channels, and Maori TV, for running and being part of the Telethon for Canterbury this Sunday.. Anna Paquin, Rachel Hunter, Martin Henderson, et al.. sounds like Brooke Howard-Smith from Target has been the front-man to get it going.. good for him. I'd guess it'll raise a lot of money for the people of Canterbury.. Reminds me of telethons when my Kid's were young.. Keep warm.. juliewn - 2011-05-19 20:58:00 |

Yesterday I had a wonderful long conversation with son talked for ages, lovely to feel really connected to him, & hear about his feelings & insights. I really cherish those types of conversations, with living so far apart from each other, it is sometimes hard to have those types of conversations. 510 - 2011-05-22 09:51:00 |

| 3627 | I have woken up this morning feeling dreadful, blocked ears, nose sore throat very coughy with lots of closing up feelings going on in the throat department, not feeling very well at all, I got really cold on my chest first night in levin think that what has done it, it was freezing in the nighttime. not lying down so up and dressed with a scarf around my neck hopefully will feel well enough to lie down later for a sleep - sod it. auckland_ali - 2011-05-23 08:04:00 |
| 3628 | Poor Ali, hope you improve as the day goes on. Was everyone pleased with your weekends efforts in Levin? I was at Waikanae for the weekend-always good. EA so pleased to read your happy posts and Motobo good that you are happy in your work, any rentals suitable for you? Charlieb your Mother would have had first hand experience of your quakes. Hope you all have a great week. marywea - 2011-05-23 11:16:00 |
| 3629 | thanks mary had a 4 hour sleep and still not feeling that great, really chilled that first night, great jobs done a new roof on woodpile, guttering, tree down, warderobe clearout and pantry we worked like the clappers. the weather was quite nice too, I thought fairly mild for may as well, we were not that far from each other lol. auckland_ali - 2011-05-23 15:54:00 |
| 3630 | Hi all, Ali - a recipe from my Doc ... peel a lemon & blitz it till it's puree then mix that with active Manuka honey. Take by the spoonful throughout the day ... but if you can't handle the potency - dilute with a little warm water (not hot - you don't want to destroy the Vit C). winnie231 - 2011-05-23 20:32:00 |
| 3631 | Sending get well wishes to Ali... take it easy and look after yourself. I was given these super strength echanacia tablets from a health shop "Nutralife 6000plus" and take those at the first on set of symptoms... seems to keep it at bay. I have to go to the Doctors for my "WOF" so to speak so will get the flu jab again this year I think. Seems to stop the severity of any cold. Lucky you Winnie, sounds like a nice place to hang out in winter, maybe you need to start advertising your hous sitting services for when you are available again... I have heard of people that spend there lifes going from one place to another. We have had them here... love leaving the animals looked after and the house secure and lived in, and they get the bonus of free rent, power and phone. The 27th June is a Monday? Do you mean the 26th? Still aiming for a weekend away at some stage... Will get my A into G soon and book something and let you know. Sounds contradictoru but we want to stay somewhere central so realise those options are quite narrow. Work is going soooo well, I have normal days now where the new girl no longer needs so much imput and this allows me to put my energies into other places..... But I no longer feel like I am rushing from one task to the next... quite chilled. Off to have a coffee with Miss 18, I get up early on a Tuesday to hang with her before she leaves for the bus at 6.40am..... toadfish - 2011-05-24 05:55:00 |

| 3633 | Damn nosebleeds. Wednesday last week, Sunday and this morning. will have to go and annoy the Gp again - seems like such a small thing, but it's messy and I never know if it will be half an hour or 3 hours. I wonder if they still cauterize ~ sounds painful and I am such a wuss. calista - 2011-05-24 19:57:00 |
| 3634 | a bit too frequent arnt they calista, hope it gets sorted a little blood always seams to go a long way especially when its yours!! any way of getting an answer on that? took daughter out to local italian we have been going to - gosh they are good at the flattery, said your daughter is just beautiful and looking at the mother its no wonder - lol lol - boys got a very generious $15 each to go forgaging at the takeaways!! - truth be told I had a grab one voucher that was expiring soon for the italian place so it didnt cost much more than the boys!! auckland_ali - 2011-05-24 21:56:00 |

| 3641 | Hello Charlie.. I just watched it too.. heartbreaking, and thank goodness for all those who helped, as those police officers, digger driver's, etc..etc..etc.. have done and many are still doing.. One thing that shines through everything I've seen, read or heard about, including reading in posts in threads here in Trademe, are that even with what has happened in Canterbury on and since September 4 last year, is that Cantabrian's are hugely strong and resilient - compassionate, caring, supportive, generous people, all getting through the unthinkable together.. and that all of you there are to be respected and admired.. I think of you all often, send thoughts of strength and courage.. and wish there was more I could do.. know you are thought of.. and hugs are being sent.. x Charlie.. x juliewn - 2011-05-25 23:33:00 |
| 3642 | Ali and Calista.. I hope you're both much better.. no fun feeling unwell.. hugs.. juliewn - 2011-05-25 23:34:00 |

| 3644 | I do think you cantabians have a special bond... you did before the eathquake, I always said Christchurch was my favourite city... and one of the things I loved about it was.... that everyone that lived there loved it too. Well out of town today to do some training at head office... not me.. I am the trainer... wow how times they are a chnging... 18 months ago I started this job very insecure... now I really feel part of a good company... the management are excellant., very supportive. All on track for my Pink Ribbon Breakfast on Saturday... 15 confirmed attendees and a couple of my friends are going to help... which is awesome. Have a great everyone...

| 3646 | Cooks I saw your friend's shop being demolished yesterday. I was walking along Moorhouse Ave and glanced across the road. I know it's the people, not the buildings that are important, but so much of our lives are tied up in the buildings around us. I hope they have or will find new premises - the woman I was served by when I went in there a couple of times was always very helpful. Julie, you;re right about the people caring for each other. I was wheeling my bike along Ferry Rd at dusk, walking the last km home as I was too tired to cope with the traffic, when a woman on a bike did a massive U turn to stop and ask if my bike and I were OK. I really appreciated that. calista - 2011-05-26 08:38:00 |

| 3648 | Have had a lovely day despite having to drive in unplesant rainy conditions, met up with a friend for a healthy 'sammy' & water. Last night we got the bus into town, for work. My low blood sugar, pounding head & need for food caused my mood to change into Mrs Grump. I soon became a different woman who was much nicer to be around, after we shared a delicious burito at Mexicalli Fresh in New Market 510 - 2011-05-27 00:03:00 |
