Operation Light

Well… an interesting day.
Spent a lot of time at the bank this morning as it turned out Jeff’s eftpos card had been compromised and someone was happily fleecing our savings account!!! (To the tune of over $700 mind you!!!!)

I found this at about midnight the night before and promptly dragged Jeff out of bed to confirm his spending hadn’t gone completely haywire…

Its not something we did … like not protect our card or anything. Random bad luck. The bank lady said there are scores of people just playing the numbers and they sometimes get a hit.
Of course, Jeff’s card has been cancelled- my card is ok. The account isn’t compromised, just the card.

Oh before any of the parents start hyperventilating – don’t worry… I did the hyperventilating thing last night and generally in this type of situation, all the $$ will be returned. We weren’t scammed so we had no part of the transactions to take any of the blame.
Just have to wait… Sigh.

So…. this was the project I gave up on after digging potato plots. It’s a wonder anything was growing in the hothouse!!
Until I look at the photo I didn’t really notice quite how bad it was!

Jeff ended up taking the kukuri to it and went the total hack. Probably better he did… I tend to snip and feel bad about pruning things… Jeff’s pruning often ends up a foot above ground!!

Plus he mowed yesterday so things are looking much nicer!! Mind you, in this warmer weather, the grass will grow as we watch it!!

I’ll share some soapy photos tomorrow… I’ve been invited to have a stall in a month at the rhododendron gardens so I’ve put a few more batches together that should get just cured enough in time! (You know… because I was so low on stocks, … snort)

Hope everyone is doing great!
Cheers!!
