So sad. A nice, fun, relaxing weekend away and now back to the grind.

Oh, and found another pen on the floor of my car this morning so my husband scored 25 of the Pullman's finest. I told him the rubber stylus thingy on the end will degrade before he gets to use all of them.
 
So this morning mrsdrron said to me-"stop wasting time on the computer.Get out and do some gardening."
So what is this "gardening?"

For me? Roundup.

I do enjoy pulling weeds out of the lawn but have far too many at the moment so its the killing fields at home.

Must be catching! I heard similar words spoken in our house on the weekend. No idea what it meant.
 
I just heard on the radio that somewhere in the US, there is a coffee FDA recall because it contains cough like substance.

i think it belongs with alarms.


in 1986, Mr FM and I had build a new house and it had a lovely back garden with lots of grass. Landscapers had done it, so all very beautiful. However by the summer the grass was getting pretty long and Mr FM went out to tackle it. He suffered a severe hay fever attack, left the lawn mower out there and collapsed on the couch.

I looked at the lawnmower and thought "how hard can it be", so went and finished it. After I ended up with bruised hands and exhausted I investigated a gardener and we have had one ever since. I just swan out and suggest "we need some more camellias in that corner" and like magic they appear in a few weeks.....

two up on me - Mr FM doesn't believe in celebrating anniversaries :). Once we got to 30 though, I took it out of his hands and started planning anniversary trips.

Have to admit if he had given me either of those I would probably have packed my bags :)
 
Hope things get better Penegal.

Thank you.

Now to get that medicine added to the PBS ;)

Penegal's bottle storage?

Well actually the RPBS

PBS pharmaceutical benefits scheme
RPBS repatriation pbs

but in this cane neatly: refrigerated Penegals bottle storage

Surely the last 'storage' acronym outweighs all else! :)

Well I wouldn't be trying to add to that ;)

Mwahahahaha. Something like that would be nice. Not cheap cheap, but was yum.
 
When my husband and I married, 17yrs ago, my inlaws gifted us a brand new lawn mower. They also gifted their other son, also newly married, a brand new law mower.

We all live in the same street so they would walk from house to house, mowing the lawns for us until the machines died and my inlaws got older and we got a lawn guy (lawn guy does my inlaws lawn as well)

Dont think hubby ever pushed that lawn mover other than to move it out of the way in the garage.
