Jane, if I had been smart many moons ago, I would have found a way to work at home. I would miss some of the people but not the office environment.

You might miss the steady salary too, Deb, that is another BIG disadvantage (but possibly the only one)... Well, apart from no longer meeting interesting new people but that depends on the job too ;-) I still get to do a bit of that with the small amount of freelance journalism I do.

Evening friends, how were the bagels Jcat?
Deb, love the telephone with control top.Posted 2 years ago by Moonshadow_NZ #

They were pretty good, MS, could have been a bit chewier... But my oven did what it always does, burns things on the bottom and doesn't cook them enough on top. It drives me crazy and I keep trying to compensate for it (turning oven down, cooking for longer, moving the shelves around) but nothing helps.
Well, it might if I clean it, lol, but I don;t think I'm going to go THAT far...

Ohhhhhhh errrrrrrrrr cleaning the oven is not my favourite job either. Meegz made a quiche here recently and left the oven in a mess when the quiche bubbled over.

LOL, you're asking me? Um have to think about this. Um, I think we'll have to ask KK tomorrow cos I have no idea. Sad indeed.

Jane, I would miss the steady income, probably would meet the same amount of people though. Seems that I meet people all the time when I am out and about, kids used to hate going places with me because I could sit with strangers and become friends.
Cleaning ovens, ewwwwwww that is one chore that I really do not like. Finally got the shower head replaced in my spare bathroom, just in time for Sarah to use it. The old one had like 3 streams of water that could get thru the holes, it had to be the original one from the time the house was built (16 years ago).

Tell KK to write it down and send it by email, then you could keep a copy of it. That was my cheat sheet moment of the day :)

Wow, great idea Deb. Don't strain yourself though, :-) it is the early hours there. Airy reminded me that there has been a time change and we are having one too in a few weeks.

Jan, your time change is next month right? With our time change, Airy is the same time as I am now. I wat this to be next week as it will be a short w*&% week for me, taking off the last two days and might drive to the Grand Canyon for a day or two. Have been here since '92 and haven't seen it in person yet.

Wow Deb, Airy beat you to see the Grand Canyon! She loved it.
I think we go off Daylight saving in the first week of April.Posted 2 years ago by Moonshadow_NZ #

Jan, heck most ppl I know have been there at least once, I was satisfied with seeing it in pictures, movies, and things like that. But now I want to go see it for some odd reason.

Ooh, oooh, I have ALWAYS wanted to go and see the Grand Canyon, I will get there one day. Have they built that transparent viewing platform over it yet, Deb, wouldn't that be neat? I will be thinking enviously of you at the end of this week :)
Yep, some time in April, I think, we stop daylight saving. I am not looking forward to it. I LOVE being able to go for long walks in the cool of the evening and I HATE coming home in the dark and cold, feels like it's midnight when it's only 6pm. WAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWW!

i have a small viewer that Airy bought there sitting on my coffee table. The type of viewer you look into the light through. Also some fridge magnets of GC.

There there Jcat, (pats her on the back) don't think about it until you have to. I know how nasty it will be to lose daylight at the end of the day, and then the cold weather and and and Whhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ! ! ! (hiccup)

Jane, they have built the viewing platform, prob won't go on it as it isn't the best place to be during the windy moments and March is a windy month. Depends on whether Sarah is stil here or not on my going, if we don't go this month then may go in May around my purday.
Jan, those viewers are nice and I love magnets :)

We must be brave, MS. *Sniffs loudly.* Chilblains aren't all bad.... and the storms with their gale force winds... and the driving rain that keeps us from our delumpifying walks and the garden and .... and the roads being closed and Martinborough being flooded and our hands being too cold to type and ....
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
-
Phew, I'm glad I live a bit further north. we don't get the gales, the closed roads or the floods.
But we get everything else! Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! ! !Oh, I forgot to add Cyclones(hurricanes). The season has already started with Fiji being battered by one now. I hate cyclones.

Brave souls that you both are (pats both of you on the back),honestly don't know that I have ever had weather like you both do. The gale winds and storms would be enough to scare me....I know it would be different if I had grown up with it as a norm for the weather. Being in AZ, we normally only have the winds and the monsoons twice a year.

We have four seasons in one day here sometimes, more so in Welly. I think it is to do with us being a long narrow country. The winds never scared me until I experienced a tornado and it would hardly even register as a tornado in the US. It did drop some trees and damage houses but it was a tiddler. As a child I camped in a tent through so many storms and have been flooded out of the tent many times. NZers are very weather conscious.

I hate being kept in the house too by the weather, unless I a really tired and can sleep. We had very changeable weather in Italy and Panama, always said if you don't like the weather just wait a few minutes it will change :) Those scare me on any given day, tornadoes.
