Free Stuff

I often go to one 2nd hand store, buying books, craft items and sometimes clothes from there.

While i am there i speak to the people who work there and have become friendly with them, they often keep things aside for me if i don't come into the store.

Today i went in to see what new books they had and the lady asked me to wait as she had something for me, i was thinking to myself hmm i haven't asked for anything to be held so i wonder what it is.

As she knows i like doing craft and sewing and stuff she had collected in a bag a fair bit of craft items, cotton, latch hook, embroidery, an embroidery hoop and loads of others things, then she told me i could have all that was in the bag for free.

I was so surprised and am gonna have some great fun with all i got, what i wont use i will pass to another friend of mine who likes doing craft as well.

Isint it nice what people do

Washing my clothes

Today i woke knowing that my sister would be over later in the day, so i decided to get some housework done before she turned up.

One of it was washing my clothes, i put the clothes in the washing machine and then went and got some breakfast as well as doing a bit of tidy up.

I have my breakfast ready and go and do what i usually do which is to sit in front of the computer to read my emails and do stuff like that.

When i walked out of the kitchen i felt like screaming and crying at the same time, the water from the washing machine had come out, it was streaming down the carpet of my hallway, putting my breakfast down and rushing to the washing machine, i got it turned off and started mopping up the floor.

I thought i would look at the machine and see if there was a reason this was happening and tried to get the water to come out of the machine, it would come out for awhile then it would stop, so i decided to look at the hose of the machine, when i did that, all the water started to pour out of the machine, finally i got a bucket under it, but some of the water had escaped to where the water had been that i mopped up.

I ended up spending around 1 hour trying to mop the water up, it has gone into the carpet, down my hallway into the lounge room, it has also gone into the room i have my computers in.

It is winter here at the moment and i have 2 heaters going as well as a fan trying to dry the carpet up that the water had gone onto.

My sister meanwhile turned up just after i finished moping up the floor.....

In 1970 how 2000 will look

Talking to a friend the other day on the net we started talking about when we where children, and what our parents told us would probably happen

My online friend is in America and i found it funny that some of the things she was told would happen where really close to what i was told here in Australia.

The first one was driving and cars, seems we where both told that by the time we got our licence and where able to drive we would probably have cars that flew, like in the show The Jetsons, we are both still waiting for the flying cars...

But then of course a few years after we had the flying cars, we would have Teleports, like in Star Trek.

Oh another favourite one was when the earth would die, there where shows about it and people really got worried, the year for that to happen was anywhere between 2007 and 2012, hmmm we are still here and i cant see it happening. This became because of a person from many years ago called Nostradamus

The other one was that in 2000, all the computers would stop working, we would be in darkness, no food all those sorts of things. In Australia i remember them selling survival kits, from memory what you got in them was, water, purification tablets, a torch and some batteries, there where other things as well in the kit, but i cant remember them all, my friend in America said that they didn't have them there where she lives

Silly things that people say can happen isn't it....
