some news.......

ok here is only a tiny happy dance for this week. Dave got the all clear to work. Now getting a job. It seems that he cant go back to his job but fingers cross his old retail job is still there for him.. Will know in the next couple of days. The surgeon says its still going to be at least another 6 weeks before the healing is complete. Dave is still having difficulties with fine motor skills. He is unable to lift those 70kgs washing machine.

Mum's operation is 2 days away i think she is putting on a very brave face. I have my GP appointment tomorrow. I have a list of questions that could probably be a toilet roll paper long. LOL. I will see what happens there. Wont tell mum until after the operation.

On another side here is what been happening to our weather lately.

  • Adelaide forecast record is in its 14th consecutive day maximum temperature has been above 35C continuing a record run for any capital city in Australia.
  • The daily average maximum for March to date is 37C more than 10C above the average
  • The overnight minimum of 30.2C broke March record of 29.7C in 1985
  • Adelaide was the hottest place in SA on Thursday
  • Adelaide's last rainfall was 1.8mm on Feb 25
  • The hottest day in March was 40.2 on March 9. (taken from the Sunday Mail, March 16 2008).
Now how's that for some record........ We are expecting cooler weather of 30 C in the next couple of days........ how can 30C be cooler............ :)

Will get back to you when i know more about whats happening around me.

OH on the cross stitching front yes i have done some......... 2 kangaroos on my Australia map sampler. :)
