Firstly let me wish all the Irish around the world a very happy St Patrick’s Day. If you have any green, today is the day to be wearing it!

Thursday was the Ides of March and I didn’t have to beware of them as I had a great day with my daughter. I did have to beware yesterday though as it was a very disruptive and messy day. With Mercury retrograde I guess I should have expected it.

First, I went to the Marketplace to Rockmans to see if they had any bathers to fit me. They didn’t get any bathers in this year! Then I went to Big W to get a Sodastream but couldn’t find any! I had to get all my prescriptions filled and the chemist is at Murray on the Green so decided to go and do my shopping at Woolies there. While there I tried Target for a sodastream but they don’t stock them. Shopped at Woolies and looked everywhere there but couldn’t find any. By this time I was getting a little pissed off and was craving some raspberry chocolate lollies but Woolies didn’t have any of them either. Decided to stop at the IGA on the way home and get some of their lovely rolls and also see if they had any of the choc raspberries lol. Well, they had no choc raspberries and the rolls were all burnt!

Went home rather disgusted with the whole trip and got on the internet to see where  sodastreams are sold. Rang Kmart at Mt Barker who only had 1 on the shelf and suggested perhaps ringing before going down there. Mitre 10 was another place that is meant to have them so rang Mitre 10 here in town but they were out of stock. Then tried the Woolies generic number who put me through to Woolies in the Marketplace where I had started the day. YES of course they had them didn’t they. So back into the car, down to the marketplace where I got my sodastream AND they also had some choc raspberries so got a few packs as well. By this time it was almost dinner time so had a pkt of choc raspberries for dinner and then felt rather sick lol.

I didn’t unpack the sodastream until this morning when I decided to make some. Guess what!!!! It was knackered so had to go take it back and get it replaced pmsl. Checked the box at Woolies and it looked ok so now hope it works ok, lol.

Back home again and I think the rest of the day will be spent doing very little if possible. I did go and buy a couple of plants so may have to put those in, but maybe that can wait until tomorrow when hopefully whatever is out to get me will have moved on.
