1. Our temporary cleaning lady was here for an hour and left the house looking great (our permanent lass comes back on 30th Jan after her holiday in the UK). It does feel 'right' to have a nice clean house.
2. The car is filled with boxes to go to the op shop tomorrow and it always 'right' with me when I am able to lessen the load in the house.
3. Phil and I both had appointments with our podiartrist and John always leaves our feet feeling so special and that's a 'right' for both of us.
4. My lovely daughter rang me late this afternoon (they had been without power since 2.a.m. this morning (their area is always suffering power outages for some reason) to tell me she had seen her specialist and he is very satisfied with the way her knee is progressing. That made me feel really 'right'. Hopefully she will soon be able to hand her elbow crutches back 'cos even though they were very necessary, they don't do her shoulders a lot of good.
How wonderful to have a day with four 'rights'. Not huge ones (except of course the news from K) but at our age we can't expect miracles all the time....just occasionally!
We are now headed into a mini-heatwave over the coming week. We've been fortunate to have a few mild days following the heat last weekend and those dreadful fires in the hill. Now our thoughts are with those in south-eastern Australia where, as not only are they experiencing horrendous heat, but fires in both South Australia and Victoria are quite bad. We can only hope everyone will remain safe. We've had heatwaves over the years in Australia and managed to survive and hopefully we all will again.
Four rights in one day....a new record. My right? All the wonderful blogging entries I got to read this morning.
ReplyDeleteYes certainly a new record, or at least over the past few years.
DeleteReading blogging entries is always a 'right' in my book.

ReplyDeletesome goodies here Mimsie... my right today? Meeting folk that made me feel that I would be welcomed in the small community I am looking to move to. It's a factor. Thus a positive! Blessings, YAM xx
Yes they were good ones. I am glad you are feeling you will be welcomed and hope you find a place to settle, at least for a while. That sounds so positive. xx
DeleteI would love a cleaning lady but sadly the only cleaning lady I've got is me and she's not very good.
ReplyDeleteMerle........
Our cleaning lady comes courtesy of our Council (Cockburn Care) as I am rather limited in what I can do these days and my hubby is 84 so not considered terribly able either. It is subsidised by the government I think so only $AUS8.00 an hour which is so reasonable and the ladies are so quick and do a fantastic job in their hour here.
DeleteThese are WONDERFUL rights, and are making me smile. Thank you. And the warmth (metaphorical) and the wonder I have found here in the blogosphere is a very big right in my life.
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased I made you smile EC. I am sorry to see you are still sweltering over there but hopefully the cool change you have been promised will kick in and make conditions more comfortable and perhaps those pains will diminish a little as well.
DeleteI am finding so much warmth in the blogging world as well and lots to wonder at as well. It's a wonderful world.
How lovely to have so many rights in one day. Good to hear your girl is making good progress with her knee.
ReplyDeleteAnother mini heatwave coming? Oh dear.....
Yes River it was great and 'kakka' is really being positive now after being reassured by her surgeon that she is doing well.
ReplyDeleteYes, another mini-heatwave...a week of temps above 95ºFarenheit. Nasty. Lowest temp 35ºC up to 38ºC to be precise. Not nearly as bad as you and those further east have been having thank goodness.
