After my appointment in town I met up with a friend for coffee and we decided to have a girly day out - op-shopping and checking out places we don't normally go. Two girly day outs in a week - can my system cope with it all. Bought a seersucker pink and yellow table cloth at one op-shop - I have such a large dining table that it is hard to find everyday tablecloths for it so I was really pleased when we unfolded the table cloth and it was huge. Then we decided to go over to the next town for lunch. First time ever I have been in a RSL club, aftern lunch my friend showed me how to play the pokies, another first. I really can't see what the point is just sitting at a machine and hitting that button over and over again. Soon got bored with that but at least I didn't lose any money. But that's two more things I can tick off my firsts list.
The heavens opened just has we were going back to the car, we had to sit ouside Target for 10 mins before we could get out of the car. They had my favourite knickers in the sale and they were even reduced by another dollar at the checkoout so I was a happy little Jan. Treated myself to a new cd - Bat out of Hell, my old tape of it has finally given up the ghost, its over 30 years old and with all the playing its had over the years I'm surprised its lasted this long.
Bought more yarn as well - yes, I needed it. I knit half of it up last night in a spiral scarf and I'm not happy with the colour changes in it. So it might become something else. I might knit up a pair of fingerless gloves or socks instead.
Well, like a bat out of hell I'm going, going, gone.
Crochet, Embroidery, Family History, Decluttering, and the occasional rant and rave about Telco's, idiotic drivers, and the world in general. Peppered with life's everyday little hiccups, pleasantries and amusing anecdotes.
