And good to see you again Minks too. How was Victoria? My friend there wrote to say they'd had very bad storms and then loads of snow.

Hi Ya Pam, ah Victoria, gosh I have not been there in awhile, yes they are getting supremely ugly weather, it's resulting in some pretty warm stuff here for us on the other side of the rocks.

I will have to ask my mom about how my cousins are doing over there... I bet they are hating the snow. HAH

Nice to be back BTW, I hope you had a good christmas and new years.

Mind if I join ya for the meal, (nearly lunch for me here, have a yummy salad lined up.) M

My girlfriend said they were without power for 6 days and she nearly froze.. !!!!

That espresso arrived just when I was having my actual early morning coffee. Perfect!!! The salad sounds good.

I've got every finger and toe crossed my daughter finally got her knee fixed last night (haven't heard anything yet). Theatre stays open till midnight. When I left her yesterday she was still in a holding pattern at the operating theatre door with a lot of others.. who've also been there for days. GEESCH. The poor kid was prepped days ago, and has had nothing to eat .. just waiting.. she's on a drip for fluids. Great way to lose weight, I suppose. Anyway, I guess I'll head out thataway now and see what gives.... sigh. I have her five year old in tow. He's such a sweetie, but a handfull too.

Oh are you saying.... your daughter is waiting for surgery but nothing is happening and she is holed up at the hospital... what is with that?

Oh dear your poor friend in Vic, I recall times in winter my dad getting a call from my grandfather asking him to come out and help with the pipes because the ground had froze, and their pipes are barely buried so it would not take long for things to freeze and crack. They sure are foreigners to snow and the cold.... so awful really.

I hope your friend is ok now... I shall ask my ma this eve about my cousins... I wonder how they all faired.

Oh, your poor daughter, Pam! I hope she has had her surgery!

Jen called to say she's still waiting. And waiting. I'll go out to the hospital shortly. A lot of surgeons on holidays now, apparently, and theatre staff too. She was in such pain in the night that she wet herself, and feels ashamed and all that. She can't move to help herself with bedpans. This is Australia !!!!!!!!! GEESCH. We have a good health system here. I thought.
