Hello everyone, I am
coming to you from another place not home, why because I am dog
sitting for my brother who has gone to our nieces wedding in
Queensland, Kirsty is marrying her partner Jacob this afternoon.
My brother is attending
in place of our parents as my dad has been really sick a lot recently
add to that mum isn't really comfortable driving such a long
distance. Even though Tim and I not attending I did send a present up
with my niece Kelli and Jonathon, since Kelli and Jonathon naturally
went this meant my grandson Blain has had a holiday in Queensland
this last week and this I am very happy about as it would be his
first family holiday well the first one that I know about.
I am the only person
that my brother and sister in-law are comfortable with staying here
to watch the dogs, the only thing I don't like that much is the bed
it is not that comfortable but it is only a few nights and I can cope
with that.
This morning I went to
the local plaza and did a bit of shopping then I had to go home to
pick up my phone charger so while I was home I had a bath and did
Tim's medication up for the next week so I don't have to go home
tomorrow. Tim said he wanted me to go home and get him tomorrow to
take him over to Kathy's place but I really don't want to and will
suggest that he rides his motor bike here and e then go from here to
Kathy's. David only lives 5 minutes from Kathy so I would rather do
what I said but we will see.
Yeah last night when I
got here I discovered that I had left my phone charger at home so
before I went to bed last night I turned my phone off, I rarely turn
my phone off but since I was going to bed it was ok and this morning
I tried charging it in the car with the car charger but it is stuffed
and not working, I am going to suggest to Tim that we get another
one as I do use it a lot more then I thought I would.
The reason I had a bath
at home this morning is because my bath is a larger bath then the one
here, it is deeper and longer and wider so a better size for this
larger woman. Why is it I wonder why baths now days are generally
smaller then they were 30 years or so ago, my bath is the same one
we had when we moved into the place 28years ago. I also remember the
bath that was in this house when it was Aunty Joyce's house it was a
large bath like mine but it was in a terrible state and when my
brother did some renovations to the house they put in a new bathroom
and that meant getting a new smaller bath.
Well that is enough
dribble for this post.
A good time to have some "me" time. Enjoy.

DeleteI think bathtubs are getting smaller as less and less people use them, so when most people remodel their bathrooms they aren't putting too much space or money towards something they don't feel is important. I, however, do like baths and would put in a nice one, if I were re-doing a bathroom.
ReplyDeleteYes it is because they are getting smaller that I keep telling the Dept. of Housing I do not want them to give me a new bath I like the big old one we have
DeleteEnjoy having some time to yourself! :)
ReplyDeleteI did it was nice
DeleteMY tub is a cast iron one from 1954 when the house was built. It is large and deep and wide. So when it started looking very very worn, the finish was gone. I paid quite a bit to have a well done perfectly matched one made of acrylic. it was laser pin point fitted and worked perfectly. It was made to order, put right on top of icy original cast iron tub , made to measure. PERFECT look and I kept my original tub. They ones on the past 15 years or so look like coffins! The yare so narrow and short and shallow.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah I have seen some coffin looking baths but thought I was the only one to think they looked like coffins.
Deletesorry for the word "icy." No idea how I managed to type that.

DeleteThat is kind of you to dog sit for your brother. As a dog owner I can tell you it is really appreciated.
