Today I'm hoping to get out to the supermarket.
While there is plenty of food here, I want to make lots of dinners that are tasty and filling for all of us.
Mum seems to have a very good appetite, and certainly perks up when she gets her dinner.
This is great.
ABOVE: Yesterday, flying out of Sydney and can you believe it? We flew right over where I'd been staying in Quarantine! I could see the hotel and the big building being constructed, and the ferris wheel. Made me smile.Can you see them?
ABOVE: Mum and Ron's home is built on the side of a big ridge, which Rob has terraced, it has many levels. This is the front lawn! It's like a golf course green... immaculate.
ABOVE: The night view ... sadly not the best photo. It's very pretty too. The lights twinkle. I really love it.I don't have much else to report right now... so I'll catch ya later.
ONWARD...
9 am: And Mum has slept all night long, which is wonderful.
She's still snoozing in fact... but slowly rousing.
Once she's more awake and 'with it' I shall leave her and Ron for a little while, and go do some grocery shopping.
12.16 pm: And Mum has decided to spend today sleeping. She's comfortable, and that is all the matters.
Grocery shopping can wait... staying with Mum is more important right now.
12.50 pm: And just like that, she's awake and being herself again.
ABOVE: Can you see the Kookaburra in the tree? There's so many different birds here. They are lovely to watch.
3.22 pm: And I have driven for the first time ever in Australia! And I didn't get lost.
I got some groceries in and now Mum is enjoying some lovely fresh fruit, caramel mousse and a muffin!
Dinner tonight was some macaroni cheese with onions and bacon. I don't really have much of an appetite. Mum has managed a few mouthfuls.
I made far too much, as per usual. But bonus! I can freeze three extra meals of Mac cheese now. 😉😋
I am exhausted ... it's been a long, trying day. I will call it a night here and see ya tomorrow.
Oh and just a word of warning.
There may be some days where I hardly blog at all. Please know I would love to do more, but circumstances dictate where I spend my time.
MUM first and foremost.
Their lawn is beautiful! I bet you could all do with some good home cooked meals! Enjoy!
