Hello Ed, as I have told you the best thing about living here at the back beach in Rye is the community. Oh and also listening to the surf! Dinner now done and it was a delicious lasagne from the corner shop. A bit pricey but worth it. Mungo, cat, is now scratching at the door wanting to come out so I had best go inside as I don't want him out at night. I am reading a book about an Australian woman who established an Australian/ French book shop in Paris. At first it was interesting when she developed the idea but is now becoming a bit tedious although she has finally found the shop and now stocking it. True story. I will stay with it for the moment. Now I am off to bed. Enjoy your new day.

Duck thanx x

Hello Ed, the money was in an umarked envelope inside the book. A small piece of the envelope was sticking out of the book and Cheryl on the register told the customer that she would remove the 'rubbish' for her. Imagine their surprise when she found the money. It will go to the local charities that the shop supports. Local hospital, schools and the homeless. Mum has been in her unit for 24 hours now. A nurse came to shower her and help her dress this morning. She now has her dog Bella with her. I will visit her tomorrow and encourage her to go for a walk with me and Bella. It is important for both of them. Laters.

Morning splash-- white mouse ty It is sunny at the moment and 7 so not a bad start to the day but its going down hill from here and rain moving in. Just in time for  Kevin to go hunting--but he has got birds in this kind of weather. He will be gone for 2 weeks so lots of time to get his 2 birds. Yes,Keep things simple and get puzzles with lots of colour definition so that doesn't get frustrating either. I did get the laundry all done yesterday and put away except for a couple of bathtowels and my winter sweat shirt felt a little damp so are hanging on the rack(will get them away in a bit. Have a good day 

XXXXXXX

Hello Ed, that is a shame that Carol betrayed something that you asked to keep in cofidence. I am like you, if I am TOLD to keep something quiet, that is what I do. It was certainly T shirt weather today however by the time I got home from the Oppie I needed something warmer. Did I tell you about the nearly $900 found in a book on Monday?  No idea who donated the book. I am now flicking through all books as it seems that older people hide cash in books. When they pass away their family just bundle up books etc. to get rid of the items. I picked up my new glasses this morning. They seem to be doing the job.  At first when I tried them on they blurred a bit as I shifted my gaze. However I could read the bottem line of small print instantly. The optomertist looked squarely at me and told me she was going to adjust the glasses (frame?) and minutes later when she came back and I put them on all was good. I have since been wearing them all day, driving, reading..,.,.Now it is time for me to reheat my leftovers and watch a bit of TV. Enjoy your day!
