Good Old EBay!

 

After an uninterrupted nights sleep (rare!) I woke up around 4.45am and was wide awake!

So, soon after 5am I decided it was a waste of time just lying there, I may as well get up and get ahead on some quiet chores.

It would have been nice to see blue skies breaking as the sun rose, but instead it was grey clouds, but with some wind in the air, at 6am I risked putting out the washing, and by 7am it was dry enough to put in the drier for ten minutes to finish off.

I then settled down to some ironing...which is around the time the Teens got up and were more than surprised to see me at the ironing board...usually I am the last up ( so as to let them all have use of the bathrooms of course!)

 

 

I had intended going into town early...last nights armchair shopping was miserably uninspiring!

But just as the school rush was over and I was thinking about going out, a friend sent a text to  say was I going to be in around ten, so I delayed going out and we had a nice catch up over some tea and toast ( well breakfast was VERY early!)

 

 

After some shopping in town, which only solved three of the twenty present ideas I needed, I had a much needed sort out of the receipts section of the filing cabinet...and started tonight's fire with the discarded pile....and have only got half way through the file!

 

 

Before going to town I had bleached the attic shower walls, leaving them to "soak" whilst I was out.

I only noticed an short while ago that I have accidently got bleach on one of my favourite tops!

On the sleeve, as you can see, and all across the front!

That'll teach me for not wearing an apron...or old clothes!

Mind you, it was starting to look a little "loved" as they say...which is what tends to happen with favourite clothes, they wear out quicker than others!

 

 

 

Dinner tonight was from the 4 Ingredients book again...using up the last of the pork from Sunday I used the Pork and Coconut Satay sticks recipe....without the sticks!

I "pulled the pork" then marinade it in the coconut milk, peanut butter and ground coriander ( nearest thing I had to curry powder!)

It was very tasty indeed and as Hubby loves peanut butter, but not so keen on pork, I am hoping this will be acceptable..infact I suspect he could easily mistake it for chicken!

I set aside some of the pork and added BBQ sauce for Teen Two because of his nut allergy.

 

 

This morning I had sent Teen Two out to measure up the rabbit hutch, so as to buy a cover.

The hutch was handmade by the owners of our previous bunnies....which was great, but it is not a standard size I now know!

It is  5cm deeper than conventional hutches!

After checking out Amazon and Online Pet stores, I turned to good old Ebay, and what do you know?

Someone makes them made to measure!

 

Still no news on my dear friend....tomorrow surely will be the day, my heart really goes out to the family whose lives have been on hold for the past week.
