Good morning all, no that should read
good afternoon all because it is after midday so that means it's the
afternoon. It has been another overcast and showering morning, I
still went for a walk this morning even though there was light rain.
I took my car to Gaspower this morning
to be repaired not sure how long it will be there or how much it is
going to cost we are expecting it to be around $1000 as it may need
the gas converter replaced and that costs money.
Yesterday Jessica sent an email off to
the principal of Warners Bay public school enquiring about changing
Leo's school from Swansea to Warners Bay as the amount of fuel she is
going through getting him to and from school each day is beyond a
joke. Warners Bay school is only a 5 minute drive from me, Swansea
school is a good 20 minute drive from me. So now we just have to wait
for the principal to arrange a time for Jessica to go and talk to
them and hopefully they will be able to get him into the school.
This afternoon I am off to another
diabetic class, Kelli will drop me off and I will have to get either
her or Tim to pick me up when the class is over, last week it was
interesting but I didn't really hear much I didn't already know but
we will see how today's class go. I intend to do the full four weeks
of classes because hell it can't hurt and who knows I might learn
something.
Even though it is only February I have
been thinking of Mother's Day, I would like to go out for lunch on
the day and have rang and spoke to the restaurant and they said as
soon as I know numbers I can make a booking and I might be able to
pay for the meals in advance as well which would be good.
When I told Natasha about going out on
the day she said she might not be able to afford it, but my thought
is she can give me $10 a fortnight or month as it should only be
around $30 a head for the meal and I will either hold the money or
get her meal ticket in advance once she has given me the right amount
of money. I feel everyone has enough warning they should be able to
give me small amounts of money and not have to find the money all at
once on the day.
When I mentioned to mum that I would
like to go to the Eastern Tiger for Mother's Day lunch she thought it
sounded like a good idea and liked the idea of being able to book and
pay in advance, she said she will speak to David and Sandra about it
and of course dad and we will talk more about it over the next few
days.

I hope the Mother's Day plans work out.

Your car will get ready soon to enjoy your Mother's day plan well...
ReplyDeleteCar is fixed Tim has gone to pick it up
DeleteOh, aren't car repairs the worst. I hate spending money on it. And I hope your Mother's Day was awesome!
ReplyDeleteYes car repairs can cost an arm and a leg sometimes, thankfully ours didn't cost as much as we thought yesterday but the car is still not 100%
DeleteYou are a great planner. I hope it works out that everyone will be able to go!
ReplyDeleteSometimes I can be, fingers crossed it will work out the way I want it to
DeleteGood luck with your plans.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a smart plan for Mothers Day. Thinking ahead is always better than last minute.
ReplyDeleteCar problems are a major pain in the pocketbook.
I think if you want to go out for the meal then it is better to plan it in advance. Thankfully our car didn't cost as much as we thought it would
DeleteSounds like a great idea for Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteI think so and I will have something to look forward to
DeleteCar repair, changing school and mother’s day? You have a lot of things in mind, Jo-Anne! Mother’s day and changing school is interesting, but car repair is not. I just hope everything turns out great once you get your car. I also hope you’ll pursue your plan for mother’s day. It will be a blast of fun for sure.

The car is fixed and today was running fine so happy Jo-Anne, I intend to make sure I get to do what I would like on Mother's Day I just have to get numbers off my siblings and children
DeleteThe replacement does cost a lot! Have you tried asking the mechanic if a simple repair is possible? You could use the savings for your Mothers’ Day plans. If not, well, it’s still a long time from now. I’m sure the price you will pay on the new converter will be worth it.

How's the car now, Joanne? Some car repairs may cost more than a thousand bucks and leave you car-less for days. The gas converter is a delicate part and once it has experienced a defect, replacement is the most advisable thing to do. Take care okay? And don't forget to visit with trusted professionals to check up on your car.

I like your plan. Wish you good luck. lexus car repairs & seat mot
ReplyDeleteThinking ahead is always a good idea! I feel like every mothers day, I am always rushing to make last minute plans. I like your idea of months in advance collecting money from people and booking a reservation. Again, I am ALWAYS rushing on mothers day and then I find myself and my family in some crowded restaurant that has questionable menus. Yuck. I'll definitely strive to do this next year for mothers day!
