But just think, you get a new kitchen. Especially good if your insurance covered it, which I hope they did. :)

Just watching the news and seeing all the rain in Adelaide. Some places are even flooding. Hope you're ok where you are Michael?
As for Valentine's Day, after owning a florist for 8 years I'm a bit jaded and won't celebrate it but my 9 year old wished me a Happy Valentine's day this morning and he made my day!!

Yes we just saw the flash flooding in Adelaide on TV! Unbelievable....days and weeks of 40 plus temps then the opposite end of the scale! I wish Victoria could get some (and us) to put out the fires. At least it's pretty much extinguished the Adelaide fires:)

How sweet of your 9 year old Elaine:)

[Sharon]

Thanks Brenda. And of course I won't share lol. Books I can share, but chocolate that's all mine :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Hahaha!! Ooohh! Enjoy:)

It's just gone from one extreme to the other, hasn't it? Yes rain would be lovely, Brenda but at the moment there's nothing here in Melbourne. He can be a sweetie when he wants to. I had a lovely lunch with a girlfriend so that was my acknowledgement of Valentine's.

Oh, nice. Will you celebrate with a special dinner?

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

We might have a wine together:) We don't usually celebrate - he's always been my valentine:)

That's so sweet. And the real point I think. You don't need a special day to tell you that. :)

No I don't think you do! And when I said "Happy Valentine's day" to him this morning, he said "oh...happy valentine's day";) So he didn't even remember anyway:)

Glad you're fine there Michael....and yes I think that would have been a wonderful movie...

Glad to hear all is well Michael and that you're enjoying yourself. I have heard the movie is really good. I'm hoping to get round to seeing it. I have some Gold class tickets and was hoping to see The Book Thief or Mandela with them but haven't had a chance yet.

[Elaine]

Michael wrote: "Well having seen both movies Elaine i would say you will not be disappointed with either as they are both really good. :)"

That's good to hear Michael, I hope I can do it soon. I don't want to miss The Book Thief at the pictures. Mandela will be out for a while longer at least.

[B the BookAddict]

Waiting for 7.15am so I can dash off to my local coffee shop for a very large flat white - shaken not stirred and hold that olive please!

[Sally906]

At 7.15 most Sunday's I am on my second cup and just about finished catching up on my Tribez and Clumsy Ninja games :)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

At 7.15am I would have just got back from walking the dog and would have been sitting down to breakfast and the Sunday paper.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

And at 7.15am I would be reading;)


At the moment it is raining; beautiful, steady, reasonably heavy rain! Keep it coming...... But still humid as anything:(

[★ Jess]

7.15 ew.
Since I finished year 12 and have had so few commitments, my work shift at 9.45 this morning felt like 4am to me.

[[deleted user]]

I got into the MA! :) By the skin of my teeth, but still..

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Congratulations Tanvi! Skin of teeth doesn't matter, at least you're there!
