Showery Thursday

The weather has continued to be wet! We experienced a couple of heavy showers yesterday afternoon allowing me to tip another half an inch of rain (12 mls) out of the rain gauge this morning.

After Trish's Stitchery Club yesterday, we went for a drive towards Maroochydore to have a look around some shops down that way. We are looking for a good bright light for Trish to sew by while watching TV. We are after something with an adjustable arm so the light could be swung in to show more light on a tricky sewing job.

We had a wander around a few shops then back home just before the heavy showers began.

This morning I was back to the dentist again for my 'final' root canal treatment. The dentist ran in to a problem so I still have one more minor visit to attend next week.

As I type this the showers have started up again. In this area you don't need too many showers to get a good total, the showers are very heavy. Tonight we are out to Spirit Of Tibet with a couple of the neighbours. He enjoys spicy food, she does not. So one of them will have a great night. The wine has been acquired and hunger is beginning to mount. It looks quite wet doesn't it?

My favorite software download site Appznet has set up on a new site again. You need to register to get 'into' it but there is heaps of free software there. I have updated the link on the right.

Trish watched the movie "Hairspray" last night. It is a musical and not quite my 'cup of tea'. However I have downloaded a movie called "Gone Baby Gone" which looks good and tonight I hope to get "The Darjeeling Limited". Both are highly rated films according to Internet Movie Data base which can be found at: http://www.imdb.com/

I hope you enjoyed the joke in the post below!

I clicked on your weather site to the right as you have it set on your location. I changed it to mine, Sweetwater, Texas and it gave what our weather is. I was also able to select F which made it much more understandable to me. So if you want to know what we are like - you can find out there. We are in the 70s today with strong winds, but tonight a artic cold front is arriving and our high tomorrow will be 34F with chances of sleet and snow through Saturday.
