Come live love and laugh with me
Donald Duck and Daisy Duck were spending the night together in a hotel room and Donald wanted to have sex with Daisy.
The first thing Daisy asked was, ‘Do you have a condom?’
Donald frowned and said, ‘No.’
Daisy told Donald that if he didn’t get a condom, they could not have sex.
‘Maybe they sell them at the front desk,’ she suggested.
So Donald went down to the lobby and asked the hotel clerk if they had condoms.
‘Yes, we do,’ the clerk said and pulled a box out from under the counter and gave it to Donald.
The clerk asked, ‘Would you like me to put it on your bill?
‘No!’ Donald quacked, ‘I’d thuffocate.’
‘I’m waiting for Justin to come home from work.’ the daughter-in-law answered.
‘But you’re naked!’ the mother-in-law exclaimed.
‘Needs ironing,’ he said, ‘what’s for dinner?’
Sadly I admit some days I was glad to get back
as she was starting to annoy me with all her whining
Don’t anyone mention flies
I heard enough about flies and how bad they were
and how she felt about them
last week
to last me a lifetime lol
Anyway would you like to see what I picked up for the grand sum of $10??
All from a fabulous place in Cobram called Anthony’s Place.
Last year they were calling themselves the biggest Op Shop in Victoria
but that seemed to be missing from the door the day we drove up there.
The lovely cane basket in fabulous condition
is to put near my chair
It can join all the others
that hold stuff on the go
Yes, that means dh and I are about to take the car on a road trip.
Not too far from home this time. About 2 hours from here, up the road to Numurkah. which is a relatively small town – possible 4000 pop.
Going to take advantage of a birthday present – we gave to each other lol – a week at the lovely resort we visited this time last year. Called the Lakeside Country Club its just the place for a fairly quiet time just before the heoliday season starts.
Our friends from Adelaide will be joining us again this year, we had a fun time last year and I know you can never relive fun times as its all in the spontaneity of the moment but we hope it turns out the same if you follow my thinking.
Even tho Numurkah is a small place the drawcard for the men is the Golf Club next door and for the girls – trips to local towns to see what treasures we can find in their opportunity /charity /thrift shops. We can take a short drive south to ‘the big town’ Shepparton or a short drive north to Cobram and other places on the magnificent River Murray. Theres an indoor pool as well as an outdoor one, walking tracks along the river bank, tennis courts, mini golf and loads of other things for the times we don’t go out. And of course there’s my knitting and some reading.
Another hot day here in Melbourne and more to come. Next week will hopefully be cooler – and possibly wet. Both here at home and further up the Guolburn Valley Highway which is where we are heading today about lunchtime.
Bye for now, off to take the cats to the boarding cattery. See you soon
But today has been lovely.
Nice and cool – so much better than the heatwave we have endured this past week. November is supposed to be in the 20s/ low 70s – not scorching hot. That can come later – like in the New Year – February sounds about right lol
Right now we should be having pleasant days, great to be in ths garden days, lovely to take a walk days, sit outside and read days. Not hide in the house days, run to the line with washing – turn around and its dry 2 seconds later days.
I must say that the extra insulation (courtesy of the Federal Government – thank you Mr Rudd) seems to have made a fabulous difference in the house temperature.
I had the cooling on for a short time on Monday, that was the day they installed the insulation, and it hasn’t been on since. Its been fine to just have the fans on – the small breeze they make as they move the air round has been enough to keep us comfortable.
Now we all like bargains – don’t we!!
I have a sleeping partner going cheap if anyone wants him.
Just one drawback – he snores.
Not all the time – just some of the time.
He also is oblivious to kicking, shoving, pushing, being rolled over, being shouted at and many other things I might happen to do.
I had enough of it last night and decided I’d go into the other bedroom.
Big sob story coming up now lol
Bugger – I forgot to take all the stuff off the bed that was put there when I vacuumed the other day. Made a mental reminder to self to take it all to the op shop soon.
Stood in the hallway and felt so angry at myself I had tears in my eyes.
Too tired to even start taking it off so I moved on (in the dark) to the back bedroom – laughingly called the Computer Room.
Thankful it was turned off and not downloading something, means there would be lights flashing on the modem and a hum in the air – too tired to unfold the sofa bed, it would make a noise and he’d come down the hall all umpety about being woken up.
I’d go back to bed and then lie there trying to get to sleep and he’d be playing nasal steam trains in 2 seconds flat – been there done that!!
So I pulled a blanket and pillow out of the cupboard and lay there on the couch wondering why its always the other person who has to move and not the noisy one lol
Finally slept most of the remainder of the night – he was unaware I’d gone till he woke.
‘Was I that loud, why didn’t you wake me. Oh I need a drink of water, I’ve got such a dry nose and throat’
Hopefully there won’t be a repeat performance tonight.

Some of you may remember after the terrible fires we had here in Victoria last February I did a post about how my Dh (an exserviceman) and his old mates kept in touch and up to date with the happenings of others in bush fire areas.
You may like to read –all about that time here
Well, this past Sunday some of the group went to his place for a BBQ. We drove up to Clombinane along the Hume Highway and as we got closer it was evident some of the burnt areas were not regenerating but there were so many other places that were. Its strange to see what from a glance are creepers growing up black trees but when you get closer find it the tree sending out new leaves all the way up and along its branches. Sorry no photos of this – Dh was driving too fast and my head was swiveling from side to side as well
Anyway we wandered round Mike’s property and he took us down to the back fenceline – which is not that far from the house – and showed us where the fires came too.
Now that was an eye opener
The trees here are having a hard job regenerating and theres a chance some may have to be removed. Some Australian trees have a built in mechanism for renewed growth after fire but it seems the flames and heat have gone right down int to the root area and the damage there often stops any regrowth.
