Wow, iinet, being a halfway decent company unlike Telstra, have reconnected us at the earliest possible instead of the usual wait (which would have had us back online by Tuesday).

Yay!

Oh? You want to know the knee progress?

- I can now wash the dishes.
- I can now cook most things that I want to.
- I can shower without help.
- I can get in and out of the spa (although I still need Matt to remove the cover).
- I can DRIVE!
- I'm doing better and better without the brace.
- They didn't seem to want to charge me for my missed specialist appointment. Instead, we just rescheduled for Monday. Awesomeness.

You wouldn't believe how happy that makes me.

Today I've made Osso Bucco in the Crockpot and currently have a banana cake in the oven, that's to feed mum and dad who are helping move around furniture and tidy the house up tomorrow.

I think I used the two oldest kitchen appliances that I own. The Crockpot and the hand mixer, which were both handed down from mum and are probably at least 30 years old. They made stuff to last back then.

Via Birds Australia e-mail lists I keep seeing the call out for Assistant Wardens at the BBO.

"Usually between March and October but can be negotiated for shorter periods." (My stint was February to November).

Apparently annual leave is now part of the bargain too.

Oh man, they shouldn't tempt me so. Just 3 months maybe, in the busy season when they'd really need me. Gaaaah.
