CRANE ANYONE?

CRANE ANYONE?

There is a lady calling in today to have a look see at our section and how she's going to get our new Spa Pool into our back yard... with HER crane!

Totally cool.... she must love her job!    You just don't expect a lady to be operating a crane... is that sexist of me?  I hope not.  lol

What else?  The usual Thursday, taking Griffin to his Speld lesson out Pukekohe way... while he's there I might go have a walk around the streets of Pukekohe... it might involve detouring into some shops!  Ya know me....

ABOVE:  Our son and his partner Tess are moving permanently into the wop wops of Australia where Russell works in the mines... so I am not going over to visit them now until they have moved and are settled.  It means Sienna will be just that bit older and no doubt smiling and cooing... which will be lovely.  THAT is why I'm not going right now, in case anyone is wondering ...  I think I need to get a liking for ORANGE soil!  lol

ONWARD...

DEBBIE: I don't know what sort of mine it is!  How bad is that?  lol

GARAGE DOOR:  last heard from them on May 23rd, when he said we would have our new door in 2 WEEKS. Just spoke to them over the phone... more likely to be another 3-4 weeks!  WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?

FURNITURE FROM WHITIANGA:  they ain't answering their phone.  Expected that.  Shame they gave me their address.... might just VISIT THEM soon.  With a big stick.. to shove up their bums. (yeah I know that ain't nice, but come on, they have been dicking us around with this for weeks!)

The crane lady arrived, she does not drive the crane, she just organises the jobs.  Pfffft.  Anyway, it's going to cost double what I thought it would... how typical! 
They are coming on tuesday at 10am.. I have to let all affected neighbours know the road will be blocked for about half an hour, hope no one complains! (Yikes)

Stew had taken the latter part of today off work so he can mow the lawns before the expected rain this weekend (plus we ain't home this weekend).... we are going to a friend's 50th in Hamilton.  OOO neat... a night away from kids.  BLISS.
I have asked him to mow our neighbours lawn too as she is spending a lot of time up at the hospital with her Mum (Myra), on top of working full time... he doesn't mind.  Isn't he a love? 

MARK:  it's NO WHERE NEAR water... it's hours away from the sea in fact! 

End of Day:  we had nachos for dinner and Stew, Steve and I all agreed we felt ill afterwards!  Not cos it was awful, but because it was very rich in flavour and didn't sit well in the tummy.
Maybe next time we will halve our portions?
Off to bed... tired as.
nite nite.
