Hmm.. that’d be ’sweet’
Another day has dawned.
I didn’t take Sienna swimming yesterday morning as I woke up to the sounds of a chesty cough at 6am (yawn). She stayed asleep until 7:30am, which is unusual for her, so we didn’t do too much. I gave her some Panadol a couple of times. Might give her some more soon. Still a bit warm.
Around 10am we headed down to the shops. I had a look for a doorbell but they are about $35 so I might just get a replacement battery for the one I already have. It’s just looking rather old from being out in the sun. Plastic doesn’t tend to do well in direct sunlight. I also checked out some curtains but didn’t know the size of the window they would fit so went home and measured and went back to shops. A pity cos I had found a carpark spot right next to the front door
Well, when I got back a lady saw me looking for a spot and pointed at her car. We waited til she pulled out (sounds like a pregnancy prevention method).
I went back to Target as they had a sale 20% off curtains and accessories. I went through the small range and selected a couple of curtains 120 by about 213cm. My window is 250cm so it was close enough. I did buy a curtain rod, but will keep it until I get my own place as I’m not sposed to put holes in the walls in this rental. So.. I .. um.. got inventive
and used fishing line to tie the new thicker darker curtains to the existing curtain rod over the existing curtains
It still wasn’t good enough so I put a black sheet over the top of that again. Now the room is nice and dark instead of looking like midday at 5am!
We got a few groceries. Sienna needed some more pasta (or “pasta more” as she calls it). This type she calls “pasketti”. I got some steaks and oven mix vegetables to have a real meal at some stage.
We had some lunch while there as well. Sienna wanted “Chicken chippies” - Chicken and chips, but I got a plate at the Asian food shop and served ourselves the types of food we like. Then, we just shared the plate between us. No point in paying $7.00 for her when she doesn’t eat that much. Just get one $8.50 plate and stack it on!
I really have to get back into exercises this week. I haven’t done any for about 1.5 weeks. It started raining a while ago so I didn’t go since the dirt track I run down would be muddy. What an excuse hey? Also all the Oporto I’ve been eating lately… I’ve been bad. Time to get back into it. Once you start it’s okay, but if you stop it’s hard to convince yourself to start again. I’m not the best one for motivating myself.
Will see how Sienna is feeling today and maybe take her to the park for some fun. It’d be nice to get out of the house at any rate. It’s looking a little overcast today tho so we shall see. Better not leave my clothes on the line too long either.
When I drop her off tonight at home I will clean up the house. I’ve been slack there, too. It’s just been one big slack week all over ![]()

They say it takes three weeks to create a habit.
So don’t stop now.
