TUESDAY IN AUSTRALIA

 


It is going to be a slower day today.

I don't expect the girls to pick me up till much later on this morning.

So I shall just hang out here in the house until they do.


ABOVE:  Lorraine and I in a carpark building yesterday.  Rowena took some cheeky snaps before I even had a change to 'pose', lol.  At least Lorraine got time to smile. 😊

Today Stew is working from home for a while, so that he's there when the bathroom cupboard arrives.  He gets to put all the plasticware in it instead of me.  Yaa.

I forgot to say, yesterday was MUCH WARMER ... I wasn't cold at any point. It was wonderful after those first couple of freezing days.

Right, that's me for now.  I'll catch ya later.

...
Oh I forgot to say, I dyed my hair last night.  I had nothing better to do.  It came out... interesting.  Photo later.   I'd still like to get to the village hair salon, for my next colour.  She can't be any worse than me. 😂😅😆

ABOVE:  Well!  In the light of day it actually doesn't look too bad.
But, there's some serious purple patches.  I use purple shampoo as a toner, and I left it on a bit long last night.  Hence purple patches.  Luckily, with how I wear my hair 95% of the time, ya can't see the purple.

It is 9.03 in the morning.  Looking to be a lovely day out there. No freezing wind. 

10.38... and I'm  not getting picked up until after lunch, so I decided to walk to the closest shopping centre.


ABOVE: It wasn't far, just over 2kms, but OMG. I'm in a black, pure wool, polo necked, long sleeved top! And it's sunny with no wind.  Me face is bright red.
5.18 pm. Everything is fine. I've just been spending time with my sister.  I'll update later, once I'm back at the BnB.

6.37 pm, Aussy time.  I'm back at the BnB, just had some dinner and looking forward to a quiet night in.
I must try and put my legs up tonight, as my fluid retention has really upped it's game!  Too much sitting around, not enough exercise or feet up.

ABOVE: Tapu finally decided to like me... and pestered me on and off all afternoon to play, scratch his back etc.  I even got licks, which I'm going to call kisses.

I did a load of washing this morning before I left, so that's now hanging on the backs of the chairs.

Time to sign off... I've got dishes to do, then I shall get me silly legs up on a chair.
Catch ya tomorrow.

    I had my stylist figure out how long my hair had to be to get it up in a bun or ponytail. And then he cut it just a bit longer than that.

    Super happy. Easier to comb after I wash (that was a real problem). Easier to wash. When I have it down, it looks so much fuller/better.

    He cuts it every 7 weeks, he puts my highlights in every 14 weeks. So much better.

  7. I love Lorraine's outfit. Well, I love Chris's too. But clearly these two sisters are acclimated to different temperatures. Walking outside in the sun in black wool - I would hope the temperatures would be close to freezing!

    2. In case you need it Chris, there is also DiDi and Shebah (only female drivers) in Ozzy :)

    3. You just put the uber app on your phone, make an account, load your credit card and it should work. We Uber whenever we are in Australia - maybe ask for help? It would be a great help to get around easier.

    Your hair looks nice. How gorgeous is your sisters dog 💙💙💙 So lovely you are spending time with your sister but definitely not a resting holiday. Try to keep you feet up while you can. You are a lovely sister 💓

  11. The hair colour looks ok, both you girls looked nice today.
    Could you lay on floor with legs straight up wall? Several times a day whilst away faster fluid drain?
    Was a sunny day as predicted 6 loads washing done!
    Hope you sleep well.

  12. Is that Tapu's ball? it looks like one of those spherical shaped rocks. I knew he would warm up to you.

    1. Yes, it's one of his balls. Hee hee, that sounds a bit rude.
