Quick March-NOT-and a SNAKE

Well gee it sure has been fun at our place not....

As some are aware I had my foot operated on the 8th Oct...Got a slight infection but quickly got rid of that with some antibiotics and I was just hobbling along nicely-wasn't lookin fwd to Mon22nd Oct as that was suture removal day...

anyways Sunday night Hubby decides to liven things up jus a tad..well he didn't do it on purpose ,he was carrying a 30kilo (approx) UPS-uninterruptible power supply-which is kinda a need to have up here during the wet season..

well he gets all the way -but 1 step from the top of the stairs and BD (dog) decides it might be best if he moved outta the way-well umm yep you guessed it he moved the wrong way and back went poor hubby and the UPS to almost the bottom of the stairs--some lovely language followed and BD did not get a whack..but oh dear hubby's foot ballooned up real big..

So the 2 of us hobble of to the dr on Mon to get my stitches out the surgeon just looked at us and giggled..

Tuesday am I finally get hubby to agree maybe need to see a DR..well ..well.well he has a yukky fracture on the fifth metatarsal ,ON THE LEFT FOOT-..no plaster just has too keep it strapped up and  elevated.....Dr says it will take approx 6-8 weeks to heal-and hubby is not to  do any work with the tools till then..so  he gets to go back to work in another 10 days , for office duties for several weeks ekkkk -he is going to love that NOT...

So as you can imagine we pair look a treat hobblin along..

then today just was crappy power kept going on and off all day -

then I walked into the laundry and something smelt funny so I told hubby and a lot of hobblin and shufflin this is what we got out of there

 bitingAs you can see the flippin thing was chopped in half and it was still trying too bite the shovel snheadicky - kicky pooo...sorry to reptile lovers but up here with so many diff varieties of snakes the only good ones are dead ones

cheers all

thanks for dropping by Vickie

Not much Fun

My oh my it's been 2 weeks since my last post,


well I had not been feeling the best so there was scarce posting anywhere from me...


Then I went in for my op on my foot last Wed-go back to dr today and hopefully will get the pathology results.


Am on crutches and can't really do much as my foot has to be raised at most times.





So I thought I'd post a couple of pics of what happened at our place on Saturday.



One helluva big truck delivering one of Hubby's 40ft containers.

Little miss Delta freaking out 'cause the big truck came into her yard....

And way up the back the truck goes to deposit the container in situ

Miss Delta quickly finds another hiding place.
Then 1 hour later when the other container arrived Miss Delta was nowhere to be found she hid good and proper and only reappeared after the truck had gone...


So now hubby has 2- 40ft containers side by side with a 5metre gap in between, he will put a roof across the top and have a nice open work area free from the weather..
But there is more--this means under the house will be clutter free of his stuffs yeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaah...

Cheers Vickie
Thanks for dropping in.
