MariJ Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Oh, that’s so cool, what a nice trip that will be. I did not book a flight to the South Island to see Steve in May but I am hoping that I can maybe get to Indiana to see my sister in May!

About 30 min before coming my friend called - she had just had her power restored after days and when she went in the house, the top floors had heat but not the bottom! She called repair expecting that it would be days before they could come and they said they’d be there at 12 noon! They actually did and were finished by 12:30 so she did get to come and it was lovely. I did see the Volvo yacht race boats but I did measure over 24 inches of snow in my driveway. What opposites! And, I love hearing all things about water. Sure wish I lived closer to it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane in N.Z Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I didn't measure over 24 inches of snow in my driveway (although I would like to see it but maybe only once ) I did go on a motorbike ride today (had a really good ride but a bit difficult getting off but I managed ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I did not go to see a specialist about my leg pain but I did a timed “10 minute walk” in my living room yesterday testing out my foot. (I sure hope it was helpful, Jane.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 I did not plant beans in the garden (oh I wish!) but I did go to a birthday party for a 13 and a 16 year old.

Jane in N.Z Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 I didn't go to a Birthday party But i did go to the ladies night at church on Tuesday to see Julia Grace (a brilliant NZ artist who is both funny and serious in the same song) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariJ Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Oh that sounds so interesting! I did not see Julia Grace but I did crochet a tiny little turtle for my sister! It came out “ok” but I think I stuffed it too much, it keeps flopping over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane in N.Z Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I didn't crochet anything as I'm not good at this (I've only every crochet squares and that was years ago ) I did pack my suitcase as we are going away for a few days tomorrow.

It was the battery and as these things go, the car is just 3 years old - had to get after my other was hit in the car accident. Because I wasn’t driving then, then the next year after rotator cuff surgery, then this year with my foot --- it only has 14,400 miles on it which is virtually new! The battery was under warranty but the date was March 11 - it couldn’t have gone THEN??? With all the checkup maintenance the bill is pretty steep.. For a car that’s barely been driven! I didn’t watch the opening ceremony of the 21st Commonwealth Games but I did make invitations for a 95th birthday party. (I hope I didn’t say that before!)

Jane in N.Z Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I didn't make invitations for a 95th birthday party (hope it was a great party) I did go to Mangawhai to see a friend on saturday on the back of Davids motorbike (he was riding to Whangarei heads with CMA and dropped me off on the way) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariJ Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 It was a great party - loads of famliy members! Three generations of cousins from first to third all happy to be together.

MariJ Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Oops! And I was just there again today! I have not had a cortisone injection in my back but I did begin to fly home from Australia two years ago today on the 17th. ((which probably was actually yesterday there today. This was the plane that flew an hour over the water then was diverted back to Sydney because of suspicious cabin smell. I spent the night in a hotel in Sydney and flew home the next day).
