Feeling better

Well... Phew!  I have pulled myself out of The Hole & feel much chirpier today.  I have had a very busy day sanding back the deck - which didn't seem to work.  Then I washed it down with some stuff that cleans mold off wood & that has made it ...... better - sort of.  I will oil the deck tomorrow & hopefully it will look magnificent.  Tim the Cat is lying on the printer beside me, satisfied after another day of peeing in my shoes.  I am forcing myself to stay awake until 8.30pm to watch "Dr 90210".  Yes, you heard it here first.  I know there will be some of you that are shocked and horrified that I would watch such trash, and indeed I am fully aware it is total trash but for some reason, I love to see it.  Can you explain?  I think it's because I am incredulous at the carry ons of Dr Rey.  
I have been "baching" (how do you spell that word?) for the past few days while Steve is in the UK seeing his family.  Subsequently, I have pigged out on all my favourite things for dinner - risotto, macaroni & cheese and tonight, pizza from the local takeway.  However, the guy who gave me my pizza & took my money is currently (I assume) on bail and convicted of a triple murder five years ago.  I knew he worked there but he was arrested just last week so I thought he would be in jail or something.  Shows what I know about Life.  Anyway, it must be incredibly difficult to carry on "as normal" with a trial for a crime like that hanging over you....  I made sure I didn't complain about my anchovies.  I'm going to have to crack into the Maggie Beer quince and bitter almond ice-cream.  Time to sign off!

crikey Jen....I missed it!
Did you see the $1,000,000 kitchen?

As for the ice cream, I have 2 of those flavours sitting in my freezer all the way out here(has it flown in especially), and I am not sure about the fig one
takes a bit of getting used to

Anyhoo, Dr "Dandy" Rey must be on rerun today

cheerio

I think it may be safer to stick with the ice cream and go easy on the pizzas for a while. the vanilla and elderflower is yummy too.
