CARDS

THANK YOU to Susan, Caroline and Kym for the Birthday Cards/gifts!  I have put them aside to be opened on my actual birthday.

I forgot to post my walk photo from last night, so here it is:

Now that I've done all the walks posted for now, any I do after today will be repeats.  Helping get other girls finished. I don't mind, it means I get to keep walking.  

The one thing I don't want is to stop over the hot summer months, so will try and do walks late at night or first thing in the morning.  Let's hope others feel the same within the group.  Last summer it all stopped for 4 months.  That sucked.  And I gained 8 kilos!  THAT ain't gunna happen again.

Today I shall be going over all my market stuff, making sure I've got everything I need... as I  have the Cambridge Trash 'n' Treasure Market tomorrow.  First of three this month.
Hoping like hell it's not raining!  Or bitterly cold.

Apart from that, just the usual sorta day here.  Housework.  Making sure the kids are ready for school on Monday.  They only have about 3 weeks of school left! 
Then big celebrations... NO MORE SCHOOL for them  ...OR US.

ONWARD...

I cannot believe how bloody FREEZING it is today!  If it's like this tomorrow I will have to wear my thermals to Market!  Crazy cold.

Stew has gone to pick up Griffin from work, then we will be dropping Brylee off at work!
THEN we have decided to go into Hamilton.  I want to find some little tongs for my birthday party.   I have a couple of mid sized tongs, but they are worn and ikkkk, so hopefully we can find some at Steven's at the Base.

There's a nice kitchen shop on the main street in Hamilton too... so that's another option to try.

Right now though, I'm sitting under my electric throw TRYING to warm up!  I went into the garage earlier to sweep it out, wash the dogs area etc, but OMG no way!  Too cold in there for me.

LITTLE 'FUNNY':  I put Marley on Brylee's bed earlier, to wake Brylee up.  Marley was so excited she piddled a bit on Brylee's bed!  Brylee ain't impressed.  lol

5 pm:  And we had a successful trip into Hamilton.  I looked in about 5 different places for little tongs and found exactly what I wanted in Look Smart at The Base.
No paying between $5 -$10 EACH for tongs at various other places... I got them for:

ABOVE:  $1.25 each!  What a bargain.  So I have the trays sorted, the tongs, half the non-perishable food... last things to get will be bought on the Saturday afternoon, after the Tamahere Market, or first thing Sunday morning.
Which is all the perishables... meat/bread/fresh fruit and so on.

Such a lot to organise ... AND do a market tomorrow, next Saturday AND next Monday!

But, I'm the queen of organised!  Should be fine.

At least the weather has cheered up a bit!  It is not quite so windy or cold now.  Fingers crossed it is even better tomorrow.

Well... Stew's car is loaded up, ready to get me and my stuff to market tomorrow.  Hope I remembered everything.
It's still cold... so I shall have to make sure I've got warm clothes ready for tomorrow.

Off to bed soon... don't want to be up late tonight.
