Seasonal

 My old kitchen

My hands are all wrinkly today as I've been Spring Summer Re-arranging and Cleaning...

I'm suffering from a severe lack of storage / preparation space in my kitchen, after going from the beautiful big kitchen at my old house, to a seriously small kitchen with hidden corners, and hardly any bench space.


I don't use the kitchen much anymore, except for making lots of cups of tea and coffee, and quite a bit of toast with vegemite or jam, so I decided that I needed a little space just dedicated to this.


I ordered myself a small appliance pantry to sit on top of the cupboard where I used to have the microwave. I was able to find the perfect match for the existing kitchen, but I wasn't able to order the doors until I'd decided the heights of the adjustable shelves inside.

I think I'll probably live with it for a month or so before I finally make a decision.... in the meantime, I'm thinking that I should probably find somewhere a little bit less visible for the tins of cat food!

WooHoo!

My ADSL2+ is connected
That is all.

Questionable or just plain Bizarre?

This post is totally unrelated to craft, but I just had to share.

I'm working on getting rid of my dodgy wireless internet and re-connecting to ADSL2+. The first step was to get the home phone line connected. I'm not actually going to use the phone line to make any calls. I probably won't even have a phone plugged in, but I just needed the line.

I had to wait for a week for a technician to come out and visit, as something wasn't connected properly in the hole in the ground further up the street from my house. He had it sorted in 5 minutes flat, so it's all ready to go.

On Friday, I opened up the letterbox and found a Telstra invoice.... so I opened it and found....


Yes - it's an invoice for the grand total of $0.00. Do I keep it or do I just throw it out? I'm confused!

Yesterday I arrived home and checked the mail and found an invoice from my medical oxygen supplier. With each invoice, I usually receive a printed flyer advertising medical / oxygen equipment that they supply.

They've recently been taken over by Supagas, so this is what I received with my invoice....


I can't imagine that too many oxygen dependant customers will be taking up the Fabulous February deal of a fantastic new welder and a free roll of mig wire!

My final random rant for today -  I love Cottees Cordial but...


...this is just a step too far
