Good Morning... here's to a lovely day.
I talked about getting some elastic for a job yesterday. I finally did with it what I'd planned.
It works a treat!
Our next market is on January the 27th, Auckland Anniversary Day, in Cambridge. I'm really looking forward to it. We've had quite a break from markets over the holiday period.
For the first time in a very long time, we are having to miss the Tamahere Market this month, as we will be at a wedding in Tauranga. Luckily, the market organiser is holding our space for us, it will be ours again next month.
Right, I really don't have anything planned for today. I will probably just potter around, do some housework, tend the pool, and so on.
I might even go for a little walk. Time to get my fitness up again, now that I'm recovered from the tooth extraction from HELL! 😂😖😉
Oh I just thought of something I can do this morning. I shall re-dye my hair. That is always a two hour mission. Hopefully it comes out OK, cos we have a wedding to attend on Saturday. AND I shall shave me legs and pits... both are looking fairly ragged. Oh the lengths we go to, in an effort to look half decent!
10.50 am:
Hair - DONE. Might be a bit yellow, with purple tones! lol
Legs & Pits - DONE.
Phone call from our Estate Agent... just checking in and letting me know we have a Private Viewing this afternoon. Gosh, lucky there's bugger all for me to do to make the house ready.
Lacy's last surviving guinea pig got attacked by a cat this morning. He's hanging in there right now, but it's a strong possibility he will die.
So sad.
Right, I'm off to do those few things that are necessary for today's Private Viewing.
It will be our dinner of course. Yummy.
Nothing can beat homemade of course, but these come damn close.
And NO, no bugger is paying me to say that... sadly. 😂😅😋
ABOVE: lol! A bit yellow, a bit purple... and I really don't care one iota. Though, I'll probably put some more purple shampoo on the very top/front in a couple of days, to try and tone down the yellow some more.
Overall ... I'm happy to do it myself, and save OVER $280!
I'm thinking of having about 2-3 inches cut off the very ends soon, to tidy them up, they are very straggly and whispy.
Back to it...
3.50 pm, and I am pretty sure the house is ready. I just put the pie in the oven, it should be starting to smell lovely by the time the viewer(s) get here.
I just checked the list. Yep, all done. Even the side gate Stewie.
He almost always forgets the side gate I might add. 😂😊
Coco is safely curled up in my car, ready to park down the road. She is happy as in there. And yes, she has water.
I have about 15 minutes left until I need to leave...
edit:
I thought the buyers had brought a building inspector with them. I was wrong. The bloke taking photos etc was the buyer... with his wife and son. He wanted to measure rooms up etc etc. They are VERY VERY interested... they just have to wait for their Broker to say OK and we could have a back up offer on the table soon!!!
Wouldn't that be AMAZING???
Funny thing, when I left the house prior to the viewing time, I drove out of my driveway, down the road a little, and parked behind a workman's ute.
When our Estate Agent arrived and parked outside our home, the man in the Ute drove up and parked opposite our home. LOL, it was the potential buyer!
He must have been 100% aware I was watching from the road, while they looked through the house again.
My Estate Agent said they were really concerned about me having to sit in the car in this horrendous heat.
I didn't mind, I got out of the car and sat under a tree on the grass verge. Nothing is too much trouble when you are trying to sell your home, seriously.
OH and my pie in the oven made them all drool. lol 😋😊😋
I had my arm pit hairs lasered at one of those places at the mall -- Laser Clinics I think it's called. About 4-5 sessions, not expensive. Absolutely recommend it -- they've gone FOREVER. A little painful at the time, but soooooooo worth it. Christy in Sydney
ReplyDeleteMy daughter had pits and legs done. She agrees with you, fabulous.
DeleteI however am too blond. The laser has to be able to “see” the hair. Blond does not work.

Great idea with the elastic. Kj
ReplyDeleteHugs for Lacy. I hope he pulls through.
ReplyDeleteSad about Lacy's guinea pig but how did the cat get into the guinea pig cage? I would have expected a cage that size would have been cat proof. Unfortunately cats love rodents and a guinea pig is a rodent. Audrey
ReplyDeleteHe gets time out of his cage to graze and run about In my little front yard area, usually I can go inside for a few minutes and he is safe, well not this morning, turned my back for a minute and a cat got him....he is hanging in there, but yeah the next 24 hours will be.....
Delete#Lacy
Oh Lacy, I am so sorry. I hope he recovers. Not only you, but Keera too will be so upset if he doesn't get better. We looked after a guinea pig once for a friend and they had a cage with a wire netting bottom so he could graze and a cat put its leg into the cage and mauled him - he died of fright and we felt so guilty even though we couldn't have known it would happen. BTW, I still love cats (and dogs). Audrey
DeleteOh your precious xx thank you, and yes Myself and Keera were both screaming at the Cat, Keera even said some very colorful words in her big girl voice at 8.....something this morning, so we didn't think it got Chocolate to much, but when I did manage to grab him he wasn't acting right....then got him inside and well yeah.....I won't go into to much detail, anyways I had seen this sort of thing before and knew it was not going to end well, unfortunately Keera seen the blood ect aswell so she was upset, we both cried for a while....but seems Chocolate may have some more plans with us, he hasn't left us yet....finger x'd he dosnt xx
DeleteThank you Audrey xx
#Lacy💙💜
You just need a 😃. It's gorgeous, you're gorgeous, but I agree with getting the straggly bits cut off. I hope Lacy's guinea pig recovers. Kj
ReplyDeleteI agree with getting the ends tidied up Chris. Makes your hair look very thin. I’d go 3-6 inches. Marie, Melbourne
ReplyDeleteI actually like your hair colour, doesn’t look yellow in pic.
ReplyDeleteA good trim is necessary every now and then…makes the ends neat and tidy.
I get my hair cut every 7 weeks, just a slight trim, makes a huge difference. Every other cut is color too.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter has longer hair, she gets deeper trim and color every four months.
Being on a regular schedule helps a lot.
I agree with Marie, more off this time and then regular schedule.
