#2257 Saturday 20th January

Hahaha.!!
I just saw this..... 


...... and I was immediately reminded of the times on the farm (40 years ago!) where I had the bulldozer covered in canvas..... and the goats loved it!  It was a mountain they could climb..... and they'd slide down.

#2256 Tuesday 16th January

 It's 2pm and we've just been through a humdinger of a thunderstorm ..... so loud that I think it might have been right over the top of us.  The sky was clear though ..... so I don't think it could have been.


These days I get comments from Kaylia's carers about "What a delightful person she is."  I agree!  We seem to be in a 'sweet spot' with her medication and she's just relaxed and happy.


Later.....  It turns out that it was a serious storm and localised just east of us. There are reports of flooding in Mundaring.


It's now 5 days later and many areas are still without power from the effect of that storm.  Amazing stuff!

#2255 Sunday 14th January

Phew it's hoootttt!  ..... and the forecast is that it's going to stay hot.

I'm having a battle with phones at the moment.  The 3G network has been discontinued and I made sure that I have a 4G phone.  But we weren't told that it had to be 4G voLTE..... not just 4G LTE.   So I can't make or receive voice calls.  It seems that the same handset can be either. In Australia, volte is programmed into the handsets... but not elsewhere.  So a handset that costs around $100 in China costs around $1400 in Australia because it has a tiny program change.  Sheesh!
