Sudokuaholics Anonymous 8

Good evening. Home alone. Laura has gone home, dino has gone to one of her places and waiting for Ken to come home from bowls (not sure what they palyed as it has been raining!)

Evening June
Isn't it a wonderful feeling? Do you think they played 'bend the elbow'?

They got half the game before they rain came. Suzy,Not sure about the others but hubby does not like beer! I think he was ctching up on some paperwork. Heidi, sorry about your back and the bird.
Brenda, how did your hubby enjoy Cape Town (Not beeing sick on the way home!)? He had to see Tabletop Mountain and the revamped dock area!

Good morning/evening dear ones...just popping in from my dad's computer. Meeting Katitude, Mr. Katitude, Cedric and Keith in a few hours. Found out that there is no wifi at the restaurant - - so everyone will have to settle for pictures posted on our pages after the event.
Hope everyone is doing well. Sorry about the bird, Heidi. I'm afraid that's all I can remember at this time. Hugs to all!

PS - my dad was on R & R in Sydney during WWII and LOVED Australia and the people there. So he has been doing an atrocious accent for me since I've arrived! He's going to be 89 and thinks it's pretty authentic, ha-ha!

Good Mean Sudokuland.

I am having coffee, need it to wake up today.
Have a cup with me, won't you?

After a bit of sunshine mid afternoon yesterday, we are forecast only a 60% chance of rain today. On our trip yesterday, local roads were flooded again. On our more scenic route, we crossed other creeks that were out of banks, running swift and muddy . So much rain, so suddenly, with ground already saturated. Do wish I could share with some needing water.

HI VICI, and I do hope you have a great meeting with Katitude and family. sounds like so much fun. Looking forward to photos.

Enjoy today's meet Kathi and Vici. So wish I could be there with you.

Oh, and say mate to your Dad for me Vici!

HI GAIL, love your little roo graphic . How is life treating you today?

Today is a good day MizT. Plodding along nicely thank you for asking.
And you?

June, Richard didn't get a chance to do any sightseeing during the hours of daylight. They arrived in Cape Town at 10:30 in morning had to get to their hotel, freshen up and have something to eat and be ready for their first meeting by 13:00. Didn't finish until 19:30 after it was dark. This set the timetable for the time he had there, wall to wall meetings, though their hosts did take them out for a drive around on the Thursday evening but it was so dark they couldn't see much. One thing Richard did comment on was the difference in the areas shown on TV and the actually shantytowns. He noticed the Shanties stretching many miles on his trip to and from the airport.

Vici, hope you have a great meeting with Sudoku friends today, shame there is no wifi in the meeting place.

I'm sure I have missed many things while I was awol over the weekend. Those who were ill/in pain hope that you are feeling better now.
Any birthdays I have missed hope you had a great time and were pampered.

Good Maen, everyone! I'm just dropping in to invite any and all of you to attend the Sudoku meet in Florida in July in honor of Fiona!! We haven't picked a restaurant or time yet, but the gathering will take place on Friday, July 24 in Daytona Beach. Let me (or Kathy from Valrico) know if you can join us. Kathy and I plan to stay over, and I have a travel consultant who is trying to find me a condo/house for a 3-day rental. I plan to make a mini vacation out of this! If anyone would like info on accommodations, just let me know - I'll be glad to share!! Have a great day!!!

Everybody. I haven't read any posts yet, except Jane's directly above. Very tempting invite. And my schedule is open. Hmmmmmmm.

Back is hurting a lot again today. But I haven't had my meds yet, either. Countdown to next epidural: 4 weeks from today.

I need to go pick up my lawn mower. It's been re-welded, blades sharpened and new spring in the choke. It's as good as new!

Now if the rain would only stop, and it would dry up enough to mow. But I shouldn't complain. The pastures are growing, and the cattle and sheep have plenty to eat.

Good day all! This bad cough is sapping all of my energy! Not a good time of the year to be sick!

Any birthdays I've missed, Happy Birthday!

Congratulations Kate on your new grandson!

Vici, have a good time at your meet with Katitude and Keith!

Heidi, hope you feel better!

Gail, like your G'day kanga!

Stella sounds as if you have the same cough as my daughter, it seems to linger so long after the cold has gone.

Heidi - I saw your post, and all I have to say is "Hop off that fence, girl!" Pamper your back and get your tail on a plane for Florida in July! Maybe you can write it off as a medical expense: salt water does wonders for bad backs!

Hello SA8ers!! I missed 2 pages of posts!! Wow!!Cleaned a bit around the house this morning...FINALLY some time on the pooter!
Heidi: Hope back is better soon, take care of yourself, the back is a VERY finicky thing if you have problems with it.
Stella: I have the same cough two weeks now, mostly from sinus allergies the last month...feel better!!
That's all I can remember from what I read. Have a great day/night all. TTFN!!

Jane, if I do make it, I'll drive, not fly. It would only be a 14 hour drive.... easy in one day. My problem is getting my idiot husband to take care of the critters.

The transmission just went out on my small tractor. I now need to haul it to the closest dealership.... an hour away.

Heidi - I, too, prefer driving to flying, but a 14-hour road trip is not going to do your back any good!!!

My truck is comfy. I regularly do long drives without a problem. I also collect old time radio shows, and love to listen to them while driving. It makes the time go quickly and pleasantly. I look forward to long drives as time to myself.

The skies are rumbling away, now. Tho' it's only raining lightly. The sky is about as black as I've ever seen during the day!

Morning all!
Brenda, shame they drove Richard around at night. Oh well, at least he can say he's been there.

Heidi, yay for your lawn mower, boo for your tractor.

Suzanne, my house could do with some TLC, want to pop over and give it a go around?

Gail, glad you are/were having a good day. Hope you have another one today.

MizT, that doesn't sound like a fun drive. Did you go to get your floss?

Stella, feel better! {{{{hugs}}}}

Okay, it's time to tell where I am going every day. I wanted to wait until it was all over so I could say 'guess what?! yay1', but I just don't have the patience....

I am doing my practicum - 4 weeks of practicing teaching. Next week I will be teaching 3 classes - year 11, year 7 and year 10...

Suzy. I hope everything goes better than hoped for.

Suzy is this the fianl leg before you qualify? I everything goes well for you at the school.

fianl = final if you hadn't guessed.

Good morning all.
What a great achievement in your life Suzy. I hope you really enjoy the prac.

Heidi..I hope IH can look after the animals and you can have a wonderful break.Everyone needs to do something just for themselves.How long has it been since you had a holiday ??

My long molar is home again. Mowing deck on securely, new blades and new spring on the choke. As well as a complete servicing. I feel like I have a brand new mower!
