At least you Eastern Staters can't blame me for sending the heatwave!!! It is all Adelaide's fault..

Good Evening everyone..

Almost ready to serve up dinner.
Bon appetite.

Couple of big days, so will say Good Nite my Friends.

And G'Nite from me also.

I didn't go to the Cattle Show. I got almost no sleep last night.... abdominal discomfort and an overactive bladder. I'm in no condition to do all that driving. Drat.

G'morning everyone.
Thats a shame you weren't well enough to go to the cattle show Heidi.Hope you manage to catch up on some sleep.
I have done the same thing with the a/c Cyn,it is confusing.So far we have only used the fans but today is meant to be our hottest for this summer.
Adelaide is really copping it.
Once again,hope all goes well today Lizzy.
Broni...are you selling the boat and buying another?

Good Maen everyone.
Heidi: Sorry to hear that you didn't go to the cattle show...Hope you feel better soon. I can relate to the sleep issues.
Hi also to Nola, Broni, June & Rolanda. Hope everyone has a good day/night. TTFN

Morning all!
Thoughts and wishes to Lizzy!

Thoughts and wishes to South Australians who are suffering in the heat!

love yas!

Good Morning SA8.
Liz, thinking of you too, who will let us know you are OK?
Nola, yes selling the boat and will get another then, but this could take a long time as a boat cannot be changed like a house so someone will have to love it as much as I do.

In my thoughts Lizzy xoxo

Broni.... I wish I was near water, and not halfway around the world. I would LOVE that boat of yours. But living far from the ocean or Great Lakes, I can't justify it. Putting it in any body of water near here would be like putting it in my farm pond. It might be deep enough to float, but I couldn't go anywhere.

Still feel lousy. I may go to my GP if it doesn't improve soon.

Lizzy.

Hi everyone!
Heidi, hope you feel better very soon - you are just not having any luck at all!
Lizzy - still sending healthful thoughts. Hope they're helping.
(And no, the above was NOT meant to be a tongue-twister!)

Hi Judy, how are you?

Good morning lovely people - another scorcher expected here today - managing without A/C for the moment.
Lizzy - thinking about you today. That's a thought, Broni - who will let us know?
Tami - any update on Julie or did I miss it.
Heidi - good idea to go to the doctor if you're not feeling better yet.
Hello also to Judy, Gail, Suzy, Suzanne, Nola, June and Rolanda. Have a nice day everyone.

I asked Liz to pass on my details to her brother, so I hope to hear from him at some stage today, otherwise, as soon as she is able, I am sure Liz will get in touch.

Good morning everyone!
Gail I'm very well, apart from a teeny broken arm, but hey, I've got a spare! ;)
Hope you cope ok with the heat Cyn - at least you have air-con now!
Not so hot in Melbourne today, but not seeing any sign of rain and we really need it. We're putting a bucket in the shower to collect some of the water, but it sure gets heavy! Also getting up early on watering days to give the garden a bit of help, but ... yesterday we ate our first home-grown snow peas! 4 each, and they were delicious! :D

Thinking of you Lizzie!
Not really here, but wanted to pop in and say "hello"...
...Cyn - thanks for the smiles with your air/con story (and Broni's frig story)...so glad I'm not alone in all that!
OK - need to get dinner on.
Hugs all around.

Same here Judy, was up at sparrow's f*rt this morning to do the watering, and hubby and I have just picked our first crop of snow peas, sugar snaps and broad beans. I feel like such a farmer!

Thinking of you today Liz

Heidi.. time you went to the Doctor and had proper checkup and tests.. you have been ill for sometime!!
We all worry about you here..

Boy #2, has his 3rd Uni exam this afternoon. 1 more to go, tomorrow morning 8.30am.
Then he will be free to become my trolley boy again when grocery shopping till end February when Uni begins again.

Well the air con is good at work, well it has to have some redeeming features hehe!

Good luck to boy #2 Rolanda...

Judy, a broken arm and hot weather do not go together! Sending hugs!

My vege garden is growing some noice weeds... It needs some work from hubby before I can even put soil in it so I'm guessing it will be winter veges.

Good maEn everyone!! Sending get well wishes to all those ailing...Get better soon.
Still cold here, supposed to be in the high 40's to low 50's by mid week, snow next weekend! Send me some warm weather thoughts! I hate winter!!! Darrell went to the Dr. today, he has a sore back and is on medicine, so no overtime or strenuous work for the next 2 weeks...he feels better, just annoying that it happened when he didn;t do anything stressful to cause it. Thanks for the good wishes for him. We both appreciate them. Take care all, TTFN

The Gullible Countess thinks her son will help her with the shopping....

The Sexy Queen must have a very special cast....

The Brainy Duchess is too busy with her zoo to visit us here....

The Understanding Empress is full of understanding....

The Always-Hungry Countess is off to have a snack....

They're our Royal names on Facebook, Heidi.
Rolanda, Judy, Tami, me and Suzy. I wish you would come to the dark side and join Facebook - you can have your own zoo there!!
Storms all around us but looks like we should only get the edge of one. We just rescued a baby finch that the dog had baled up outside. While Col was trying to rescue it, it's poor frantic mother kept dive-bombing him. I hope they steer clear of our backyard and Jewel, the wonder dog.

Hello all.
The weather could have been worse as we only got to 31c but that was hot enough.
I was awake for most of last night,so am going to have a go at getting some more sleep.
Hope you are all doing OK.

Hi friends, just had a call from Lizzy's friend to say that Liz is on the ward, she has had the op and is comfortable. They didn't give out any other info but for now, that is good news.

Still sending positive vibes Liz ♥

Our dogs attacked another blue tongue yesterday Cyn. We carefully carried him out to the front garden and he wandered away, but I don't hold out much hope for him.

ROFL Cyn - you did it again! You've had me laughing a lot over the last couple of days (and I've needed it). Heidi can have her own farm if she joins facebook - hahahahahahaha

Thank you Gail! No news is good news I think...

Thanks Dag, needed to know she was OK.

Has anyone heard from Shar (Madby3) recently, sure it is her little guy on easy today?

Gail - thanks for the news on Lizzy.
Broni - no, Shar (Madby) hasn't been around in ages. Might email her.
Suzy - it was a zoo not a farm that I tried to tempt Heidi with to come over to FB but probably just as ridiculous since she has worked in the real thing!

I spend WAY too much time on the pooter anyways. If I joined Facebook, I'd never get any work done here. Besides, if you haven't noticed, I'm trying to have a small zoo here already. Unfortunately, that Coy-dog has other ideas. He thinks it's a fast food restaurant. I bet FB doesn't have that kind of reality. (Real zoos have major problems with pet dogs and cats killing animals, as well as psycho people. I remember one sicko who smuggled in a bunch of fish stuffed with pointed sticks, and tossed them to our Sea Lions. Killed them all.)

Oh God Heidi! What a horrid story to wake up to!
People are such pests on this beautiful planet - grrrrr!
Finally woke up at a normal hour for a top-sider!
WOOOOO HOOOOOOOO! There is hope I will recover!
Brenda - I'm impressed you are getting your pictures together. I will hopefully tackle mine while Mike is away over the weekend.

Thanks Gail for the word on Lizzie - hope she sleeps well through the night.
I found out a friend of mine (whose health was not good when I left for Oz) is in the hospital and not responsive. I will visit her today after my meeting. I think she is on her way out. I hope to be able to talk to her and send her my love before she goes. So sad. She was on oxygen and still smoking. An awful way to go.

Gail - I'm still sleeping with my stuffed platypus... the life-size one. Another is in my car - then there is the keychain one (so cute) and the finger puppet platypus. What a joy it was to see those beautiful critters down-under.
