It's way past lunch time and I am hungry. Just got back from the grocery store after dropping another $120 . The only unusual item was 3 water filters which cost over $25....never seem to get away without spending what seems like almost twice as much as only a couple of years ago. Our country has been drought stricken for several years and our dams are only just making it with people going to great lengths to save water. So it seems that accounts for higher than normal prices along with the cost of fuel. Around $1.27 for 1 litre of petrol. Shipping costs for produce must be enormous.
Dinner tonight will be whatever you feel like making yourself as Perry is making breakfast burritos for lunch! ......They were DELICIOUS....almost inhaled them !
My girlfriend Val and husband came for dinner last night and we had barbecued baby lamb chops with assorted veggies and heat and eat bread rolls....(love them). Food glorious food !!!!
We had a senior moment or several a few days ago. We only have one mobile phone....and it was lost. The discussions about what took place and when were like something from a comedy show. We looked in every logical place....then came the slightly offbeat places....then the absolutely ridiculous places including inside the microwave oven....under the bathroom sink....I'm sure you get it. Phone calls to various stores followed.....no luck. Then Telstra to have a bar put on the number and suspend the service. Almost resigned to the improbable....fallen out of pocket....stolen.....hmmm....did one of us have it when we went to check out another nearby bowling club in the delightful seaside town of Beachmere????? We did go inside and yes we did buy a drink and sit watching some people playing a game. Better call there....just in case. Voila !!!! Beachmere Bowling Club....can I help you? You wouldn't happen to have a Motorola mobile phone handed in.....what brand was that again?????.....as a matter of fact...we DO. Perry left it on the bar as he paid for the drinks, pocketed his wallet and then carried the drinks to where we were seated. I hope this is a one off.....it's bad enough constantly looking for reading glasses.
Haven't heard from Phil for a few days....not terribly positive about he and Sherrine resolving their issues. I am concerned for Josh. I called Glen to see how things were going for him.....just so so. He has taken Christopher to the desert this weekend after painting his kitchen....right over the wallpaper which he assures me worked out fine. I have always gone the tough route of steaming and scraping the paper off while wondering if you could get away with painting right over the paper. He has scrapped his two sofas and big screen old T.V. Bought a leather sofa, two chairs and ottomans to match and a 63" plasma screen T.V. He has a very large family room and the 54" T.V. looked fine so the even bigger one will look great. We have a 42" plasma screen and are very used to the size of it. Beautiful clarity. I said to him....the make up on the soapie stars sometime doesn't quite cover up the zits....it's that clear. He agreed and we laughed about that and elaborated.
That's it for today....bowling last Friday was terrific. Perry and I played against two gals who came first and second earlier this year in B grade competition. Didn't beat them, but acquitted ourselves quite well. We won our second game.
