I left home on Saturday morning, heading towards Albury/Wodonga, with no real idea how to get there. I can read though luckily so I just followed the signs. I was staying at my old friend Glenn’s on Saturday night and had intended to visit Kat first in Albury. I had no idea how far away […]
In the last year of his life, my pa told me he’d made an appointment to see our local politician about an idea he had for solving the water problem. He told me to keep it to myself because others would say it couldn’t be done, but he’d thought it through and believed it was a viable option. […]
I don’t like having to pay bills. Not just because I don’t always want to part with my money, but because it’s boring. I have most things set up to work automatically now and I probably am saving a fortune in late fees, because I would always put off looking at it.  Â
I have just waited […]
This weekend I have been to Wilson’s Prom and back. Twice! My son had an 18th he wanted to attend on Saturday and is at the Prom with his dad for a couple of weeks. I always miss him when he is away, so I was happy to run him here and back. I also […]
Wilson’s Prom is about 2 1/2 hours drive away from my home, the way I drive. Yesterday I drove there from Latrobe Valley via Yarram and returned via Mirboo North. I enjoyed the drive through the various countryside in Gippsland. It was sunny yet cool and very pleasant driving. The coastline and the hills were […]

The teacher in me found some of these rules highly amusing!

I went to the museum on Tuesday, as I said a couple of posts ago. Here is my favourite couple of pictures. I love the red flying horse. I think it is a symbol for a petrol company or something, but it is too beautiful to be that. I think my Uncle Jack used to […]
An amazing coincidence today, the very same person I was referring to in my last post, came to visit. I looked up my planner and her name was there. I remembered I was intending to take my daughter to Echuca to visit Angela this mid-term break but had forgotten about it.Joh Blogs: Camping on the […]
We are off on our holiday tomorrow. So today is about packing up everything to go. We were meant to go yesterday but I spent the day trying to work out the power problem with my home.
We apparently have a shortage of electricians so I was unable to get one yesterday. It was probably a […]
