3703 | Echoing "how is Mr Charlieb"? Motobo how lovely it will be to be settled-what area will you be in-all sounds to be going well with you. EA sorry about the stress after such a good wee while....This too will pass. Ali, where are you, off jaunting or just out buying more shoes?? 3 siren blaring vehicles have just gone down the main road-always a worry. Another lovely day, it has been lovely working in the garden this week-areas I haven't tpuched for ages and the grass/weeds were very high. Makes for dramatic viewing when cleared though. marywea - 2011-06-02 09:49:00 |

3706 | very cool Pam - some watercolour people are just amazing. glad to hear you have a flat motorbro, good on you and sumstyle nice tripping shame about the cheese and crackers, that stables is just behind smith and caughy, its an upmarket food hall with a wine cellar and tapas, crepes, sausages etc a very cool spot for meeting people, we went there when daughter graduated and fed us all what ever anyone fancied. is it the best boss going earthangel, hope you get something soon, life is too short to have to deal with awful people you can choose not to meet people you dont particualary like but working with them can be another story. - I had terrible health problems years ago and farily much put it down the the most evil boss I had ever had he made my life hell and think he was a woman hater with a power trip, I had had enough and went to the MD and said heres my resignation - I was deadly serious he shut the door and said you cannot leave we are getting rid of oh evil one and he meant it he said if I left the bast#rd had won, so I actually stayed and they did he was gone overnight I knew when it was happening it was very stressful, but the short of it was I had no enjoyment left of the company felt that my spirit had been broken and couldnt do justice to the job I had so I did leave but after HE had gone!! not a life experience I would like to repeat to be truthful!! - yes mary have been away but fiji is not a shoe shopping place :( - drank lots of wine and had a lovely snorkel and was on a sandbar with wine in hand sitting in the water very cool experience I think the water temp was 28 so not too shabby. shame I didnt fit a bikini (read that as 20 kgs lighter!!) but that warm on your bones is a seductive thing short sleeves, I was beachside in a hammock first day read the most lovely chick flick - only moved to take a dip in the pool and back again!! poor poor hubby was locked away in a room having a meeting - hey someone has to work in our family lol!!

3708 | no more kissing mr charlieb then!! - my eldest son had tidied his room while we were away - it was AMAZING - said to my sister he had been taken away by aliens when asked why I explained and she said yes def that had happened, I am still picking myself off the floor, this is the one we did an intervention on his room a few months ago - now he has proven to be capable the gloves are going to be off- if it slips let me tell you!! lol, off for food supplies, none of some things and others just got the deep six from the fridge - its kinda nice that I am on my toes when I come back from being away it will be all too soon when we come home to no one living here I am sure. auckland_ali - 2011-06-02 14:43:00 |
3709 | Sirens have been explained...an accident on the wind farm at Makara with one dead and another seriously injured, that makes for sadness in numerous homes. I thought mr charlieb would be too weak to be starting work so soon, glad he is feeling better and that the health department visit the food outlet soon. marywea - 2011-06-02 15:40:00 |

3715 | nasty having your neck out Pam, can you get hubby to stretch out your neck I get hubby to to hold my head and pull a bit it just takes the pressure off the discs - not suggesting he pulls your head off completely but I have found that to work quite well with the trapped headaches that you can get. auckland_ali - 2011-06-03 17:04:00 |

3717 | Cooks, try adding WASHING soda or Epsom salts to your next bath. I don't know quantities but lots can't hurt. marywea - 2011-06-04 04:47:00 |
3718 | ITS THE WEEKEND!!!!! Here I am.... and man what a week it has been!!! Work has been full on emotionally with changes, luckily all my changes have been good ones... and I have changed roles again.... For a girl who doesn't like change... think the universe keeps sending me things to practise the "skill of accepting change on" lol ... Still the dust will settle and I have great employers who are really supportive and are moving the company forward, The above has put the rest of life on hold this week a bit... just doing the minimum for the house to keep functioning... and that seems to have worked. Excep I need to do a big grocery shop and some baking as the cupboards are looking bare.... I can't wait to just "be" this weekend and potter... no big plans except... Miss 17's Ball tonight... we have a pre pre Ball here first with Miss 17's date and his parents... then we are off to the Pre Ball... then its the pick up.. and sleep in. Miss 17 is very excited and is off to get her hair done this afternoon and Miss18 is the make up artist..... Will take lots of photos..... That really is me in a nutshell. have enjoyed catching up with everyones news.... Take care lovely people. Edited by toadfish at 5:51 am, Sat 4 Jun toadfish - 2011-06-04 05:51:00 |

3722 | just remember gentle pressure - it just gives space between the discs and releases sometimes a headache can go just like that. auckland_ali - 2011-06-04 10:21:00 |
3723 | Its a date.... with potential lol.. and Miss 18's recent date looks more serious.... she is smitten... we are going greyer as he is 21 and works full time as a bricky..... she seem to by pass dating "boys" think thats because she has always been so mature.... So much easier potty training them and teaching them how to safely cross the road lol. toadfish - 2011-06-04 10:42:00 |
3724 | I should have mentioned the gentle bit too ali ... Pam - you only bend your knees enough to release the pressure in your neck - not so you're 'hanging' lol! winnie231 - 2011-06-04 10:42:00 |
3725 | Off to the market it is held only once a month so it is one of my monthly treats. I like going on my own as there is no Mr 510 trying to hurry me up. I can be as indecisive as I choose to be. I like window shopping at markets especially if they are not crowded. Ali thank goodness I don't have business shirts to do any more, I hate ironing & do the very least amt possible. 510 - 2011-06-04 10:46:00 |

3731 | very cute doggie winnie. ironing still waiting for me went out with hubby and time ran away with us. dessert last night success, I found a really cool chocolate sauce recipe googled with golden sryup coca powder sugar and real choc I drizzled this on plate then put molten puddings on then put a scoop of killarney choc fudge ice cream - used the 1 ltr between the 8 of us and then a blob of cream had my icing sugar in my tea bag strainer so sprinkled that on pudding and one chocolate overload - did buy cadbury cream eggs and was going to put them in a egg cup with the dessert but hubby said NO!! - I hadnt made a choclate dessert for a long time and that was my trademark choclate desserts so back to my roots!! lol auckland_ali - 2011-06-05 11:15:00 |

3733 | Winnie the first photo reminded me of a Grandson-he looks up at you and your heart just melts but it doesn't last the day! Ali, what is a "molten" pudding? It sounds a delightful dessert and SO glad you didn't make the B&B one, no matter how it was dressed up. I am of the age group that has lots of pretty afternoon teacups and was hearing how someone used them to serve individual desserts in, I suppose a mousse type of thing-wouldn't that be fun. Was Mr Charlieb tired after returning to work? nice for him and other workers to have this break. Not an outdoor day in Wgtn. Toady all seems to be going well with you and yours, also looking forward to photos. marywea - 2011-06-05 12:10:00 |

3736 | For someone to know they have been blacklisted they would have had to ask a question on someones auction, or try to buy something from them. In life I chose who I hang it with... I have very limited... read that as no control on the message boards... except to ignore.. which I try really hard to do. But I do have control over who makes it into my inbox.. and have to admit to blacklisting a couple of people from the recipe boards. toadfish - 2011-06-05 15:14:00 |

3747 | 19 shirts Ali??? There are only 7 days in a week & I would hope he has days off lol! No wonder the poor man was making noises .... mind you some men do their own ironing ;) winnie231 - 2011-06-05 22:18:00 |
3748 | its like the dishwasher you make sure you have about 24 coffee mugs so that the dishwasher is full when you turn it on, same for shirts make sure the boy has loads - on saying that there are quite a few öld"ones that need to hit the deep 6 but when boys turn over 50 they have their favourites lol, have an inner ear which is itching and itching not sure what I can do for that, I got severely bitten by sea lice last week and the itch is just coming off now, mostly in my togs read that as upper front - not nice!! lovely dinner last night I am finding with feeding 6 most nights a small amount of meat doesnt cut it, I had some chicken but not enough so did oriental beef (thank you maggi) and butter veggies with vegeterian things on the side for veggo, and a teriaki chicken which was left over from the night before put out 500 gms of cashew nuts for people to sprinkle on so most of that went as well!! - I only have one more week before daughter leaves home again so going to miss her again have really enjoyed having her back. auckland_ali - 2011-06-06 08:22:00 |
3749 | Just had another big shake - 5.5 .... very scary! Honey & I were quivering under the doorframe & one of us was crying :( winnie231 - 2011-06-06 09:30:00 |
3750 | thats terrible, I was just thinking this morning that things seamed to be settling down a bit - a new normal with no more big shakes, hope everyone is o.k. cyber hugs to everyone auckland_ali - 2011-06-06 09:37:00 |
