Sunshine Saturday.

I only just woke up half an hour or so ago. It's a beautiful late Autumn day today. Have used the bathroom been outside to look at my little flower garden and it's doing beautifully. Every flower plant I have put in there is still flowering. I must get some more : cream-coloured, red and orange double begonias (they're the indoor variety but I'm going to line my ramp with them outdoors.) The petals have the look of organza fabric. And another small flowering plant too that I can't remember? Chrysanthemums maybe...I've read the local newspaper too this morning. By listening in to Coast radio, I've been following their now finished, sausage roll competition for the entire country. Our town made it to the top five sausage rolls in New Zealand and I've just read all about it in our local paper. People have been travelling from other parts of the country to sample them, and come Wednesday, I'm going to sample one too. We're mad on our pies and sausage rolls and fish-and-chips in New Zealand. We just love food period. (No wonder the cardio wards are so busy.) I want one of those sausage rolls NOW...hmmph.
Have to wait until Wednesday...


This is all the junk food I have eaten in the past three days :-
* four large squares of pizza ; 3 vege and 1meatlovers.
* a double chocolate danish pastry and a chocolate twist danish pastry.
* a twin pack of Griffins Superwines.
* a party size bag of Cheese Supreme Doritos (corn chips)
* a snack size bar of Whittakers Toffee Milk chocolate. Yum.
I think that's everything.


Just checked my injection site for my influenza injection expecting to see bruising or a red bump but there's nothing there! Ellen the nurse did an amazing job. Didn't hurt a bit when she administered the procedure. What a sweetheart she is and she explained everything very well. So cool to not be bruised or made sore by procedures. Really, I couldn't believe it. There's nothing there.


Can't say the same about the pharmacy. They missed a drug repeat last week and I told them so plus I checked my drugs in front of her before I left the store, plus I still had to pay for the Naltrexone even though the script is cancelled PLUS!!! I was kept waiting for nearly 35 minutes instead of 10-15 minutes. There were three pharmacists filling script orders, plus helpers. I'm changing my pharmacy when the scripts run out. Not a satisfied customer at all. The only person I regularly see eye-to-eye there is the young pharmacist David. He's been lovely to me.


One thing I love about this little country is that we believe in building up relationships with those we do repeat business with. I endeavour to put in the effort with the healthcare industry, however, if things break down - I'm outta there.


And on that note, I'm outta here. Wow Google thanks. A twelve page Google search for my diary? BLESS YA. Two pages would be enough surely.
