Wondering, just wondering â€¦â€¦

I wonder……

Were they ever on sale at full price – are they not selling as quickly as the company hoped – or was the ‘discount price’ a marketing ploy from the minute they were placed on the supermarket floor?????

I wonder….

Why the city was barely visible through a murky haze when it was fairly sunny day in the eastern suburbs? I know Andrew can see the hills from his high rise ……if I’d known which one he lived in I would have waved….


Up there that day on Mount Dandenong at the SkyHigh it was cloudy at times with a fresh breeze……

It was a school holiday week so the car park full – the place packed to the rafters with families

Years ago it was the place to go on a hot day, – 15min drive up the hill from home – a ‘cheap’ economical family activity. A bottle of fizzy drink and a packet of chips to share, byo chairs to sit by the car while the youngsters explored the bush walks round the back of the building, unlimited time in the cooler air looking down on the suburbs, recognising main roads and landmarks (eg factories – footy ovals…..even the watery coastline of bayside beach suburbs ).
Things change, no free entry now ( double the charge in school hols! ). If you live within 10kms free entry – our street down the hill in Kilsyth is 11kms!! Trees have grown so only distant views, certainly not uninterrupted as was the claim for many years…..unless you could edge your way past all the kids to get a spot at the railings to look out on the upper level
The beautiful upstairs dining room with floor to ceiling windows is now for functions only
There was a bl……great big jumping castle on the grassy area. I’ve just begun to accept that screaming kids now get on my nerves, especially those with parents who don’t keep an eye on them
Yes I know I’m a grumpy old woman😊

Not everyday – just some days – like today

Possibly due to this👇

Just wondering….

Why this looks so simple. When your back and legs are not happy……wayward shopping trolleys have a lot to answer for……it’s not that easy to get down and dirty on the floor. Mind you the torso on this chart showing the position of the sciatic nerve exiting the spine explains how it can be compromised by the narrowing of the discs due to lumbar stenosis. Yes it can be a pain in the backside – literally as well as figuratively

I wonder what silly little things you are wondering about this week?
