A Storm's A Coming.....

hmmmmmm. Just heard on the news channel that the mountains of NSW are going to experience a storm. DER. The television is already mucking up, so we are getting our candles and torches to the ready. Water in the jugs - yes its electric but I have a gas stove and pans to boil water LOL.. And a large bucket or two of water for the loo cause that also requires water - funny that.

So have had dinner and a nice cuppa and might have to go to bed early, cause as soon as there is any thunder - the electricity will be turned off so as not to blow up all our electricals. That has happened before.

Only last week whilst  we were off enjoying ourselves the power went out due to trees falling on lines and an accident on the main road. Unfortunately that buggered up the fridge/freezer and we came home to a mess. A smelly trully awful mess, meat was soooo off and everything else in fridge disgusting too - luckily for us, garbage day was the following day. So there wasn't anything left to eat other than what we keep in cans, luck has it I have rice milk and that is in long life containers and hubby drinks his tea black :)) Have to make a claim on the insurance - about time I got something back after decades of payments.




These pics above were taken during and after the last been 'storm' we had. A carpet of white made it look like the Snowy Mountians instead of the Blue Mountains.

Going to investigate getting some more stuff for the puta and so I can blog more - you know it's old age - you know - the gigabyte thing. I only have 3 gigs a month and the way I am writing and using the computer I will need to increase it as soon as possible. Maybe I should send hubby to Telstra again as when he went today he got positive results after complaining of the 30 messages from Telstra saying his credit was less by the call, though they promised him a longer usage time. Although I reckon I can rock this little boat all by myself. I said to him, behave yourself and you get good results. LOL.  He came back and the first words to me were - I behaved myself and I got results. He was only gone 25 minutes too :)) So we are hoping in 21 days time we don't get messages all day long about running out of credit - cause I know he will do his block.

Going off so my puta lives to tell another blog tomoz

Nite all - Dee

Challenge of the Ladies of Glencoe

Swords to face !

Sgian-dubhs in the socks!

Skean-dhu to the ready!

Mattucashlass - ouch - (tis double blade) to the fore!

Dirk in the hand!



Alasdair Ranaldson MacDonell of Glengarry - 1812

Alas my plot to be the winner of the Highland Competition, has attracted many newcomers!!!            I shall have to outwit and outsmart my components in this. And with the help of my weapons of choice - my words - I shall be in the running for the chance of a lifetime holiday visiting my land with my Lord at Glencoe !!!!

I suppose thats ok. A little competition in one's life
is good for the soul.

But TO WIN - is the ultimate achievement of words.

I see now though, I shall have to keep my words close to my BLOG so that you can follow me
to help that I may win my trip to Scotland. Watch my
fingers as they write about my life as a Lady of Glencoe
and in turn see me crowned the winner!!! I have been challenged to
a 'Blog Off', so read my words!!
Check my links on the right hand side of my blog for more information on you too becoming a Lady, Laird or Lord of the Highlands of Scotland. When you become such join me and my other Facebook Glencoeans at https://www.facebook.com/groups. You shalll be welcomed with pleasure

Pitch a tent?
Grow some potatoes?
Sit on it and contemplate my navel?
Dig it up and bring it back to Australia?
Let the dogs run free?
Put a picket fence around it?
Put a wind turbine on it?
Put in a cellar for my whusky!
Plant a forest?
Any suggestions
 
How could I refuse to respond?? So added the following ROFL
Di Hallam
Think I'll just stand, contemplate my navel, holding an Aussie Flag, a glass of whisky in the other hand, a tiny tree in a pot by my foot with a little fence around the edges of the pot and get one of those umbrellas that look like a hat and hang a beach towel around it for protection agin the wind - and thats just on one of the kids wee small plots - just imagine on what I can do on my Lord's and my plots - hopefully we can also see the tree planted somewhere there for us LOL
