I had phoned the surgery, we did visit the pharmacy, the faxed prescription was not faxed, we came home empty handed.
Our drive to town yesterday, ( The Parody) and today ( The Reality) again were both uneventful, quite different if we had been in Dunedin this morning. Thick snow, roads and schools closed, and lots of cars skidding into others, the sides of the streets, or left safely at home.
The photos were taken some time ago, over different years and months
The stream was a little flooded
in July 2011
The sheep were on a country road down South, in December 2011
The tractor was on the farm down south, January 2009.
The log was felled, in October 2011
Hugh and I walked the Kahikatea walk in October 2012
And the gumboots, Google provided them I have deleted the original photo of my pristine red and black ones
Snow south of Dunedin. Glad I didn’t need to go anywhere down there today!!!

Ha, ha! Very witty Jean!
Hi Janet, I thought I needed to post this today to "Clarify" the situation. I did phone, they didn't fax, but the rest, well a bit of imagination and some photos from the past. Snow in huge amounts in the south, our younger daughter said about 6 inches earlier today, a maximum of about 0 Celsius, so it was mighty cold, but that's nothing to what your winters are. Cheers,Jean
wow! a LOT of snow! wow!
So, I am not to believe a word you have said, Jean? lol
We have had 'those' type of days when everything has gone wrong no matter what you do.
Happy you missed that snow!
I'm so glad the snow didn't reach you. It does put so much into perspective.....be safe and warm!!
I hope you don't get that much snow. I enjoyed the photos. There always seems to be at least one word in every post that I have no idea how to pronounce. : )
It is so hard being caregiver when people simply do not do their jobs. I'm sorry to hear this. The snow looks beautiful, however. I can say that! We're midsummer here. In a month I will be ready to let the gardens lie low.
Take care.
I'm so glad it didn't snow on you! I hate those prescription mix-ups, especially when it's a long trip to the pharmacy. The same thing happens here, all too frequently.
Oh, what a pain! You do wonder how some people keep their jobs at times.
It truly is looking like Winter there, Jean. It's beautiful!
Love your photos you had used to tell your story. What a day that must have been to try and get your presciption. I really love the last photo of the snow covered hills, that would make a beautiful card. Life is work, work, and more work here. I don't know what I was thinking trying to persue my greeting cards now with more then one property to take care of now. But I did make my first sales at last weeks fleamarket and an upcoming music fest in in our town and I can set up for free on a street they are closing to traffic. Just always pray not to strong winds as my displays just won't take winds.
I can't wait for the snow here! That's a beautiful snow scene.
