Scrapbooking LO's and life

Day 44/365

Oh, what a day!

It started with a little ray of sunshine

and rapidly went downhill from there.

It has rained, the breeze has come up,

and tonight it is blowing a gale.

I didn't take a jumper to work and at times felt

like I could have really used one.

We are really starting to forget what a nice

sun-shiny day is.

Lucky I took today's photo's this morning when

I walked Tiff to the bus-stop.

I took what I thought was a picture of a leaf

and there tucked amongst them

are the cutest little gumnuts.

They remind me of snugglepot

and cuddlepie, I think we must have

all read about them growing up.

Hope the wind doesn't blow them all out of the trees.

A bit of a gripe now.

I am starting to think it is time to stop

shopping at Woolies. Tonight is the 2nd

time in 2 weeks that I have had to throw

a tray of meat out because it was so rotten

not even Mark could stand the smell of it.

The use by date on the ticket was for today, surely

it is not unreasonable to expect it to

still be edible today. The

girls have been saying since Sunday night

that the fridge stunk, but everything looked fine,

it wasn't until Mark opened the plastic that we

realised where the smell was coming from.

With the cost of food rising weekly

it is getting to be a bit of a joke.

I have had to return veggies that were beyond

eating (rotten in the middle), and now meat that stinks,

trouble is without any competition in town, they

think they can get away with anything.

I have to drive 1/2 hr to get to Woolies,

the next closest Supermarket is

another 1/2 hr in the opposite direction,

and I am not over fussed with shopping there either.

Enough griping for now,

I will catch you again tomorrow,

when I am not feeling so totally p#$#^d off.
