BANK AGAIN

 


I went to use my new EFTPOS card yesterday, and the bloody thing didn't work.  Most frustrating.  I've had no end of hassles since I changed my bank account.

Clearly, I will have to visit the bank this morning to get that sorted out.

After that, I will be going into my Doctor's office to check out an email I received from 'them'.  I'm thinking it's a scam, so I need to sort that out as well.

Once both of those issues are seen to, I will be coming home to get sewing.  I have 4 Red/Green Braid Runners to make.  

...

I cannot believe how long my little jobs took this morning.
I got the bank issue sorted out, then on to the Doctor's, where I found out it was a mistake by them, not a scam.



Then I went Christmas shopping for kids overseas, came home and packaged it all up.
Back to the post office, where I had to unpack one of the gifts as it had 'forbidden' items in it.
Nail polish etc! 

So then I had to go and buy more wrapping paper and cellotape to redo that parcel.
By the time I finally got those parcels posted, it was 11.30 am!
And I was feeling damn frazzled.

Home.  Decided to cut a slice of our bread for lunch.  I lay it down horizontally, and wasn't being careful enough...

ABOVE:  And I managed to cut the top of my finger vertically, quite a good cut too.  It hurt really bad, and bled like hell!
It's  still hurting.  Dammit.

So, I'll have some lunch then see how I feel about doing some sewing a bit later on.

I have spent the afternoon sewing,  then baking some cookies, AND THEN getting the house ready for a second viewing by the people who spent ages looking at it yesterday. 

ABOVE: My finger has been a right pain all day. Sore as ...but I'm sure it will settle down soon.

6.11 pm, and another good long look by the viewers.  
I baked cookies, and left them out on the bench with a note saying 'Help Yourself'.

ABOVE: And they did!
Stew had one, which leaves one for me tomorrow.

And now we wait again.  We might have some more news towards the end of the week.

We are now just going to enjoy a quiet evening, so I'll say "nite nite" a bit early.

  1. Scams are plentiful these days. I just about got "duped" into buying a scam Pickleball Paddle from a place posing as a reputable store. Shaking head .....
