36 sleeps to lift-off!!!


Firstly here's the photo of the jewellery box. Its not too clear, but the box is only ¾inch long!
Another early morning today. Collected Liz and we drove 100kms to Resmed where I handed over buckets of money for a CPAP. On the way we drove past one of my grandmothers previous homes, so I stopped and took a photo for the family tree...on my new phone! She lived in the left side of the house. I still remember the wonderful huge bed with the feather mattress that I used to sink into at night when I stayed. Loved that bed. Wonder whatever happened to it???? Then off to the Credit Union to get some Travellers cheques, or so I thought! They made a mistake and wanted me to come back another day. I told them it was way too far so they are actually delivering them to my home tomorrow! How's that for service!!!
From there we drove to Crown Casino and parked in their car park for free. Had a free lunch then put a bit in the pokies so that I could park again for free next time. :) I came out $50 ahead.
We then crossed the road and went to the Quilt and Craft Show. Lots of stalls of fabric, crossstitch, beading, papercraft and some wonderful quilts. Wished I'd had more time to see them all! Spent just a little money :)
Then back to the Casino and a few more dollars in the machines...came out up $100 this time!! This was a very unusual day!
I had been eyeing off a small case for my cabin luggage, so on the way home we dropped in to get it. It had gone :( But good news, she produced one that was $100 cheaper and probably better, so I succumbed. Hence I came home with empty pockets but ready to pack! Getting really excited now!..36 sleeps is too long!
