Hello
everyone, hope your day is or has been a good one, we are having
another cool wet day here, I was lucky to get my walk done with
before it started to rain.
Tim
and Jessica drove to Williamtown/Newcastle airport to pick up a
rental car, Jessica would like to learn to drive a manual so earlier
in the week Tim rang around and found some place that hired manual
cars. Anyway the get there and are told it would cost $400 for the
day what the hell, no bloody way they were paying that type of money,
they were told because it was being paid for with debt card not a
credit card that it cost so much. Tim told them to forget it he
wasn't paying that much money. What a waste of time.
This
morning I have 3 out of 4 grandchildren here, Kathy is also here but
she is having a nap, the girls have been keeping her awake a lot at
night and really doing her head in with not listening to her and
demanding her attention all the damn time. She rang me while I was
out walking this morning and she sounded terrible, I told her she
could come over and have a nap here if she wanted to and she did.
Tim
said he had a terrible night not being able to sleep and waking up a
lot during the night and at 3am when he woke up he realised that
Natasha wasn't home so he rang her to see where she was, he was
worried about her as she is usually home long before 3am. Nothing
was wrong it is just the woman she works with, she is a gossip and
will stand around talking why Natasha does the work which as you can
imagine pisses Natasha off no end. So she is somewhat tired today.
Tim
decided that he wanted to turn his hand to making a meal using the
slow cooker, he has prepared everything it is just chicken legs and
veggies with leek all mixed together in the slow cooker. I have never
tired leek so have no idea if I like it or not but I am all for
giving it a try. I told Tim if he is using the slow cooker he has to
get it in and started before lunch so it will be ready for tea
time/dinner time.
I
have to take back a bottle of Pepsi Max I bought yesterday as when I
opened it last night it was flat as, so I rang the store straight
away and complained and let them know I would take it back today
couldn't do it yesterday afternoon didn't feel like going out again.
I like to ring straight away so I have no dramas when I take it back
the following day.
Ok
started this in the am but finishing it in the pm so all I am going
to add is that I am now posting and then I will either read some more
blogs or answer some letters.
Busy time there.
ReplyDeleteAlways good to read that a man is cooking..
I would rather be busy than bored, ok I don't get bored, don't have enough time to be bored
DeleteBoy, that rental company was the definition of highway robbery. I've never heard anything so ridiculous as two different prices for debit or credit.
ReplyDeleteI know Tim and I have hired rental cars a few times when on holiday but never been told that. However, my mum said her and dad have had that problem in the past.
DeleteAlways a busy day for you. How did it turn, the slow cooker meal? 😊
ReplyDeleteThe meal was eatable but not that great, took Tim a while to admit it wasn't that great though
