I was feeling quite organised until today, when there seems to be such a lot of different things to finish off and sort out that I don't know where to start. I got some dollars yesterday, and was told that this week Mexico has stopped accepting the dollar and only pesos are valid, not that we need money for anything much, but I'm sure the girls will expect some sort of present from TJ.
Last few bits of work to finish off, a planning application to submit and multiple post-it notes to leave for Dave & Jan. Joe has shown me how to zoom the camera on my phone, checked out Beth's netbook, and is going to show me how to skype.
We're staying at the airport hotel so no-one has to drive us down at 5 on Sunday morning, tomorrow will be packing, picking raspberries, last minute tidying up and labelling everything in the freezer. Heather, our cleaner has offered to pickle some beetroot while I'm away which is fantastic, the first time for years we've got a good crop and I'm away when it needs harvesting.
A bet you couldn't believe your luck that Heather is making the beetroot pickle.She will be a dab hand at limiting the red colour damage in the kitchen I'm glad you got there and hope all is going well. Rest and eat well and heal body and soul. I picked sloes in your lane this weekend and have the scars to show for it. I'll swap you a bottle of sloe gin for a jar of pickle at Christmas. Much love to you. Hilary
