Busy evening

Mmmm just finished macaroni cheese (well, I used fetticini, which looks a bit more classy). Good comfort food. And made from scratch definitely beats packet.

Time to start mad tidying. I could mutter about rental agents giving the bare minimum 48 hours notice of a property inspection (it is tomorrow), and the fact that Z has injured his knee and wont be home til late late late evening due to landslides*.

But instead I will put on some singable music** and start on the kitchen - dishes. I would leave the radio on, but I would throw something when they came to the Bruno interview.

Rolling back sleeves time and lets get this show on the road.

* I am sure I have muttered about the timing of lunar phasing, rental agents and fieldwork timing before...

** Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, musicals and the other stuff Z runs screaming from :)

(no subject)

House now clean and tidy (apart from the small bits Z will do tomorrow morning). Much thanks to alpha_angel and her very good vacuum cleaner after ours threw a hissy fit. Time to upgrade to one like hers.

Z got in about half an hour after K headed home, while I was mopping. More cleaning, then much checking of websites (eg Geonet Recent quakes (last 30) and the quake drum images. From the varying reports, took a while to get a clear magnitude, but looks like the Fiordland earthquake was magnitude 7.8, with aftershocks as large as 6.1. Didn't feel a thing, but was in a bathroom cleaning at the time, so preoccupied. Z was further north and in a car at the time, so didn't notice it either. Wonder if this will give Z (amongst others) some more landslides to play with...

Sleep now before turn into pumpkin at midnight.
