That is good news and must have been a relief after such a long wait.

Morning All! If you're heading off to work don't forget your ipad, kindle, phone, book or other ;)
Hi all how is everyone? I'm in Toowoomba still and have only read a little bit, but wanted to say hello ;) ;)

Thanks Julie, yes softball but she's been injured, nothing serious but she hurt her pitching hand. She's had not a lot of game time. Trying to keep her confidence up as there's always going to be someone that's off a lot and unfortunately it's her. Teaches her resilience.. Also being a part of a state team competing in a national tournament is a great achievement for her. That's what we're focussing on. She's having fun and it's a mini holiday ;)

I ordered a new Apple 6 plus iPhone yesterday - won't get it for a few weeks - but the slightly bigger screen will make e-book reading easier at night. Although I am coping with the small screen very well :)
Is my Christmas present!

Yes but think about all the extra books you will fit on both the devices.

Yes, I spent a holiday in Coffs Harbour and enjoyed myself - although my abiding memory is that the back of my legs got quite badly burnt on the beach...oops! I wish more beaches had grassy areas with trees where you can lie in the shade and still see the water!
Brenda wrote: "And doesn't that hurt!! Just inside your knee is so painful!"And when you sit on anything!!
Since a very nasty experience many years ago I am always very careful to put lots of sunscreen on the back of my knees!

That sounds ominous Leonie :(

It was very nasty sunburn - the kind where the back of your knees just feels crinkly to begin with, followed by excruciatingly painful sunburn which eventually blisters and peels.Can still remember it!

Morning! *waves* Day off from the paid job today, so I slacked off a bit and am just up to the 'cup of tea and Goodreads' stage of the day.
Good morning all. I was up at 5:40am and was out walking my dog at 6am it was quite foggy this morning, but it's going to be a warm one today :( Time for me to start work. Have a great day everyone :)
Am now back from the 'climb the hill' part of the day. I should really stop looking at GR and get clean and do stuff.
Brenda wrote: "Haha! We've all been there I think..."Not this person. i don't lie around on the beach. I'd end up like a lobster if I did. I swim and go home or retreat to shady trees, a chair and grass like Kathryn mentioned.
Today, a silly thought came to mind, and I pondered in quiet contemplation of answer.If history can be reduced to the scribe's account of past events. - IE (His Story), then;
What is an accurate an actual account of story... Then the answer came to mind and I ask. Could it be called a factory?

Safe travels to you Brenda :)URGH...Getting frustrated with sizings...Why are they SO over the place -.-

That happened to me last month. ..."
It was a false alarm with my eyes and my anxiety was building all through the wait. I was so relieved I didn't worry about how long it took.
