I really need to fix the leaky faucet, it keeps them coming, lol
12:26 am
hurshy

it doesn't have great reviews... but if i still had my marty who loved the sink, i'd try it. not v expensive.
12:27 am
hurshy

it's good for their kidneys to be tempted to drink more water :)
12:28 am
rbud

that would be perfect! at least I'd feel better about the leak. :D
12:28 am

if you get it, tell me if you find it better than reviewed :)

cooee and g'day from me. {{hugs}} liz
1:25 am
Lizlin

Hi and hugs, Rose. Just caught me - I've got bored with this grid for the time being.
1:26 am
grannyrose

*giggle* s'okay liz. if you need to go, you go.
1:26 am
Lizlin

In about 5 mins probably.
1:27 am
Lizlin

Thanks for your email - been busy but will reply soon.
1:28 am
grannyrose

there are some ugly words tonight. i typed in be4/8 5 times before it went in. np's about the email. i understand honey. i just am pleased to 'see' you. btw thanx for the pics. scary stuff.
1:29 am
Lizlin

I suspect those pics were tame compared to what happened before.
1:29 am
grannyrose

any damage to your home?
1:30 am
Lizlin

No - just heavy rain. Had to let some water out of the pool but nothing else. The park behind us didn't flood as badly as it sometimes does.
1:30 am
Lizlin

And the wind of course. Went to Byron today - surf is still up but we saw our first whales of the season.
1:31 am
grannyrose

so very pleased liz. i bet it was pretty frightening while it was going on.
1:32 am
Lizlin

No - not really. At least not for us. It was just steady rain and a lot of it. Perhaps it was worse at the coast but I reckon we got off lightly compared to Sydney and Tassy.
1:33 am
Lizlin

Like I said - 250 ml in 24 hours. That's a lot of rain.
1:33 am
grannyrose

yeah. those coastal homes near sydney copped it pretty badly. and tassy...poor people... but at least the power cable from victori to tassy is now repaired.
1:33 am
Lizlin

But on the positive side, it hadn't rained for months and the farmers inland certainly needed it.
1:34 am
Lizlin

Always feel sorry for the people affected but if you build or buy in an area prone to erosion, you can't be surprised if it happens.
1:34 am
grannyrose

but did they get it liz? it seemed to be isolated to a strip right along the east coast.
1:35 am
Lizlin

Who? The farmers inland? I believe so.
1:35 am
grannyrose

oh good. i wasn't sure if they did get any rain.
1:35 am
Lizlin

Yes - hubby confirmed it.
1:36 am
Lizlin

Still it was a beautiful 26 C today though it'll be down to about 10C tonight.
1:36 am
grannyrose

as you say, something positive out of the bad.
1:37 am
grannyrose

nice.... move on over... here i come.... whomp!! that's me landing on the frontdoor step. *grin*
1:37 am
Lizlin

:)
1:38 am
Lizlin

For us it's the big difference between the day / night temps that makes us feel so cold at night.
1:38 am
grannyrose

it would. you don't get the chance to slowly cool down. it's just wham, bang, thank-you ma'm.
1:39 am
grannyrose

*bam*
1:39 am
Lizlin

That's right! And the house has cooled down and because the sun is low, it doesn't really warm up until spring :(
1:40 am
Lizlin

It's weird - I went outside just before and it's much warmer outside than inside right now.
1:40 am
grannyrose

that's not good. but you have ducted heating in now, don't you?
1:41 am
Lizlin

We have reverse cycle air con in some of the rooms.
1:41 am
grannyrose

good move, liz
1:42 am
Lizlin

It's fine when it's on but it cools down quickly when you turn it off. It's also pretty expensive to run :(
1:42 am
grannyrose

true.
1:42 am
Lizlin

I don't think that I could live in London again.
1:43 am
Lizlin

Though I guess as I acclimatised here, I'd reacclimatise there.
1:43 am
grannyrose

really? would you be too cold there do you think?
1:43 am
Lizlin

Yes - today was like a summer's day in London.
1:44 am
grannyrose

and you just answered my question. jeez, you and sprite... i am that predictable?
1:44 am
Lizlin

:)
1:45 am
grannyrose

*working out how to be less predictable*
1:45 am
Lizlin

It's 22 C now and I'm sitting here in trackie top and bottom. I'd be in shorts and Tshirt in London in this weather.
1:45 am
Lizlin

OK got to go - stuff to do like fill in form for postal vote.
1:45 am
grannyrose

lol.... i'd like to see that.
1:45 am
grannyrose

xoxox honey. chat again soon.
1:46 am
Lizlin

What? Me filling in forms??? Just joking! See you soon. Hugs (and to Sprite if you see her)

Hi kids.

I desperately NEED a housecleaner because I am SO behind on cleaning and decluttering. I am thinking of hiring someone for a massive assault on my home.
5:56 am
doseffing

... I suggest a massive assault on one room or one corner of a room ... then another massive assault on the other corner ... ... gives you a success ... is achievable ... won't take forever ... and is more difficult to stop while unfinished
6:00 am
Scrabbler

Good advice, doseffing, because right now it seems overwhelming.
6:03 am
doseffing

... Given the condition of my house .. I have years of experience of never finishing the whole task ... and then it's easier to just let the whole thing sit because it is so massive a task ... ... anyways ... if the idea works then it's yours ... .... ... half way ... time, tide and the bus wait for no man ... especially not me ... ... luck and sunny skies to all

Housecleaning is overwhelming when you have a spouse who leaves his piles of junk everywhere and then yells if I move it.
6:04 am
Scrabbler

I am organized in a disorganized way--piles of stuff in places, unread journals and magazines.
6:06 am
bichon

Mr. Bich is a scavenger and leaves it through the house.
6:08 am

Then I go into declutter mode and attack a pile or a room and toss stuff out.

I can imagine it's a very difficult thing to do though. Not sure if that is procrastinating or not; I know that it is hard to do (so many emotions involved)
