ooohh ebay day for me
three parcels arrived this morning. how exciting. a cherry/olive pitter (hope it works), one of those metal wallets (i read the reviews after i ordered it, they weren't good) and an xbox 360 game for my grandson. i spoil them. :)

broken stuff and a dead fishy
january has not been a good month for me in a few ways. nothing serious but things keep breaking. and dying. yes, another fish died this morning. :( he's fertilizing the lemon tree now. a few things have broken lately:
1. my mouse. it worked when i went into the kitchen and when i came back the left button wouldn't move. broken.
2. my camera charger. i plugged it in the other night to charge the battery for the wedding on saturday. it exploded. sparks, smoke (the smell was awful) and it made sizzling noises. very broken. i ordered another one from ebay.
3. the other night i chucked the empty washing basket down the stairs (as is my habit. why take something downstairs when you can chuck it. most things land safely and i'm usually careful) and my golden Buddha took a tumble. he has a few holes in him but is otherwise intact so i put him in the garden.
my lovely son came for breakfast and fitted a blockout blind to the lounge room window for me. it looks fab. he also put a suitcase (i have too many suitcases) up on the wardrobe shelf. it's got my cables and electrical cords etc in it. i've been going through mountains of stuff in the spare room and have a giant bag of donations for the second hand shop. i've also gathered three large bags of rubbish. good job but it's still not finished. it's getting there though. oh no, i just reread that and it sounds like my house is really full of junk. weather is pretty good here. was a bit damp this morning, from dew me thinks. i was a little bit cool and almost put a cardy on. i woke up way too early so may need to take a small nana nap this arvo. :) on a positive note, i have three lemons and two chilies growing nicely. the herbs are doing quite well too.

ahhh a cool change
and a very welcome one too. 42 yesterday and even downstairs was uncomfortable. it was my half day too, so, after some veggie shopping it was home to hibernate. couldn't do much. no mind, i slept well and am looking forward to a workmate's wedding tomorrow afternoon. then a few days off to sort out the spare room. yes, i still haven't finished it.
