I LOVE IT

 How sad am I ?

I am loving my new hose reel!

ABOVE: It has a 30 meter hose, three types of spray, I can adjust the pressure and lock the spray on.

When I've finished using it, I jerk the hose and OMG it rolls up all by itself in 10 seconds flat!

No more dreading watering the gardens because of a right bitch hose!

PROCRASTINATION:  it's alive and well in this house.  I still have not packed up all my stuff for the market tomorrow!

So, YES... I will do it today.

I've been distracted by other things the past couple of days.

Like spending time with Stew and family.

That will always come first.

ABOVE: This bloody rock had to have it's face changed three times before I was happy with it.

And even this face is only so-so.

But, I'm not painting over it yet again.

It's a bloody rock at the end of the day!

Now... I dunno what we shall get up to today.

Maybe we will take the girls out for lunch at the mall, then come home and spend the afternoon around the pool like yesterday.

That would make for a perfect day for sure.

10.50 am:  we are going to Chartwell Square this morning.  I want to see if TS14+ have a particular pair of tights I've seen online.

Then we shall have a nice food court lunch, before coming home to swim and relax.

I've finally done it and packed up everything for market tomorrow.  I hope it's not a total waste of effort. *sigh*

ABOVE: Stew has been a darling and vacumed the house for me.  Now, we can go!

YES!  A successful shopping trip. The Chartwell store had the tights, and a dress in the same fabric, AND.... I had SO many 'Reward Dollars' I was able to buy a winter 'cardigan' for FREE.  Yep, free!

You simply cannot get a better deal than that.

We are now home, and I am in me togs, ready to jump in the pool.

ABOVE: The dress.  It's rather lovely.

ABOVE:  And OMG, I just love these tights!  I can't wait until it's cool enough to wear them.  I've got a Mid-purple top exactly like that black one to wear with them too.  (I already had both tops btw).

Right, time to get in the pool.

-I had a swim with Bryee and Keera this afternoon, then Bex and the boys arrived for a swim too.

-My friend Sharon called in on her way home from Auckland.

-My Aunty Joyce called in and stayed for dinner.

-Steve, Bex, the boys, and their friend Ren are now here, having a post dinner swim.

Bex and Ren share a stall at markets, and they are doing the Cambridge market tomorrow like me.

Stew has loaded all my market gear and product in the cars, ready for the morning.  We will leave here around 6.30 so there's no rush setting up.

And well... that's it for the day.  It's been busy, lots of comings and goings.  Love it, but it's tiring.

Early to bed tonight.

But not yet, cos it's only 8 pm.
