Post Christmas!

Today we woke up refreshed and ready for action! The president loaded up Oscar and we made our way to the dump and as always the second best part after seeing friends, about the dump is discovering treasure like this Homedics Samurai Shiatsu Portable Massager (all it needed was a good cleaning and a little TLC) at the free store. It was like Christmas all over again! I guess everyone is purging this week, as the free store was full to the rafters in used goodies. Judith came home with some nice patterns to makes some clothes in her new sewing room. She may even make you something if you ask nicely. And we both discovered the mother load of magazines today, including ones that are still on sale in the grocery store. Note to self, "hit the free store post Christmas 2010".

We skipped lunch today, for obvious reasons, but dinner was this "mother" of all sandwiches including some bread Marc gave me called "Squirrelly" filled with left over Turkey and fixings with homemade Judith mayo! Yummy... Who doesn't like left over Christmas dinner, I mean really...

These two little rascals showed up for tea and treats with their parental life support system and aunty Martha today, so we had a great visit with the Gerow and Enhorning clan, code named "Enhornrow's"! Hopefully we will see them more this year now that things are settling down.

Tomorrow, is a town day and after that it is back to work for us self-employed types. So business as usual on Tuesday. We've had a great holiday break, and looking forward to a late January full repeat when Rob & Amanda return from Australia.

PS, Julian beware of the "South Sandpiper Anarchist (SSA)" sending rockets up when you're "RC'n" at the beach!

Unfortunately, I think I'm working on Tues. If the launch could be postponed until the weekend, I could make it with some more rockets, and possibly something to aim at.

Sounds like you hit the mother-lode!

Happy New Year! if we don't talk!
