ABOVE: this is a sculpture at the Botanic Gardens, it's named "BUTTERFLY"... and I love her! She even has a ponytail like me! I think this sculpture shows us that even BIG.. you can be beautiful.We are heading into a VERY busy weekend here at the 'Chris H' house! Tonight Kelly and our granddaughter Rena arrive from Hamilton and Lacy arrives from Kerikeri... both are staying for a few days.
Tomorrow Amanda and Andrew, Huston and Joel arrive. Huston and Joel are staying here while Amanda and Andrew attend a work function in town. Sunday all my girls and their kids are here... for the night! (oh and Andrew of course!)
So we will have extra beds/mattresses all over the place. And I don't mind! I love having my family to stay.
I have decided NOT to lock me dogs away for days on end... they are going to be confined to an area I have set up for them... this way they won't jump all over Rena, who is only little. AND the bigger kids will be stopped from picking the dogs up all the time... hopefully this works.
I am like.... soooo not impressed. *sniff*NOW, ... it's off for a walk time. Then when we get home I must get the beds sorted out for our visitors...
Slight change of plans... we are going for a walk after lunch today.. mainly due to me needing to take me piddle pills first thing in the morning or they don't work as good. I didn't take them yesterday so I could walk without having to find a loo every 5 minutes (impossible around here).. so I really need to take them today. I will piddle all morning and be fine by this afternoon to walk! Yaaaa. That will be the 'plan' from now on too... walk after lunch.
TEDDY: is still wearing his cone because twice now we have thought his neck was all better, taken the cone off and immediately the bloody little shit has scrached the very tender skin and opened up the wound all over again! So now I am waiting until the hair has all grown back before taking off his cone. How long has it been? It seems like ages already. He HATES the cone. We hate the cone. Grrrrrrrrr.
WEIRD: I just went to publish the latest two comments for today's post.. and there were about 6 from older posts there? Blogger must have 'lost' them for a while! So, I published all of them anyway.
Our walk is done... only did a 40 minute walk today... me legs are sore!
Teddy is a pain.. he does 3, YES 3 poo's and at least 20 piddles on our walks! I swear he stops every 100 yards for a piddle. such a pain.
I was going to make an ENORMOUS meatloat for dinner and lunches over the next few days... but I have no breadcrumbs... bugger, damn and blast. I would drive down to the supermarket to get some.. but as I don't know what time Kelly is arriving I think I better stay home. I'll do the meatloaf tomorrow.
Lacy is about halfway here according to her last text. ONWARD...

End of Day: the first 'wave' of visitors have arrived... better go feed them. Don't think I'll get back on here tonight... so .... nite nite.
