WALKIES

 

I might just go over to Cambridge for a walk with the FBG's this morning.  It's not till 9am, which gives me plenty of time to get up, and over there without having to rise with the birds.

There is a butchery over there that has a good supply of liver and kidneys on a Wednesday, so I've ordered HEAPS and will pick that up while over there.  Stew and Steve both LOVE their liver and kidneys ( 🤮 SPEW TUCKER 🤮😖🤮!).

ABOVE:  Once I get home from Cambridge, I will continue working on this runner.

I started it late yesterday and am thinking it will be BEAUTIFUL once finished.  

I dreamed about it, so just had to go with it.  My dreams ain't usually wrong!

ABOVE:  Miss Lily watching my phone screen... it kept her quiet for a while. lol   Yet another square eyed child.

CATCH YA LATER...

12.15 pm: And I'm finally sitting down!

First up, my walk was WONDERFUL.

ABOVE: It was a nice distance, all flat ground, lovely company.

After the walk most of us went here for a cuppa (I  had Coke Zero)...

ABOVE: A Cafe/Restaurant called Joes Garage.  It was very nice.  So neat to catch up with so many girls today.  I think there were about 16 of us walking.  Perfect, overcast weather for walking again today.

Before I met up with the girls, I went to the butchery in Cambridge and picked up the offal I'd ordered, and a few other items for our dinners.

It's such a lovely butchery.

ABOVE:  I took a chilly bin (Esky) and lots of ice packs.

ABOVE:  I think I am going to be getting all our meat from this butchery from now on, their produce is no more expensive than a supermarket, yet so much NICER looking.

ABOVE:  Well tongue in cheek when I say 'nicer looker', cos seriously, there's nothing nice about how liver and kidneys look!

ABOVE: The sheer size of this Ox Liver grossed me out!

ABOVE: And THEN I had to chop it up and put it all into smaller bags.  It was GROSS.

ABOVE:  Finally all done and put away in the freezer.  Steve can come and collect his half of that offal haul.  Ikkkk.

I've washed me hands twice and I can STILL smell blood.

When I got back into Hamilton, I stopped in at the supermarket for freezer bags and a few other things.

Now... I'm gunna make a toasted sandwich for me lunch and do bugger all for a little while.

Lacy popped in for a visit, which was very nice.  She's doing well and very happy in her little house.  Not up for walking right now though, her health has been up and down of late.  Having a panic/anxiety disorder buggers her up often.

It is what it is, and she's dealing with it.

3 pm. I have developed a massive headache.... lying down trying to sleep it off. No idea why,  it just came on so quick!  Grrrrr. 

I decided not to give in to the headache and went into the sewing room and finished that runner.

ABOVE:  I absolutely LOVE IT!  And it is SOLD already and will be going to Palmerston North in a couple of days time.  Thank You Anne for deciding it was perfect for you.

8.42 pm:  Well... it's the end of a long, busy and productive day.  Our dinner was beef rollups with veges.  Very nice it was too.

Now, chilling out till bedtime.
