Have had a pretty productive day today...checked power usage again this morning and again 9 units...pretty sure thats not bad..will know more once i get our first bill.  I did the laundry, mopped the floors, cleaned the bathrooms...turned some older potatoes into ovenfries and put them into the freezer...noticed the milk is nearly over the date so made some chocy muffins(needs a bit of milk for reciepe) and put them into the freezer for future picnics.  I did end up going to the shops...with list in hand I went to coles...My sons birthday is next week so Ive arranged with some of the mums to bring their kids down to a local park for a playdate..Ill take along some treats(hence the going to the shops) not alot, just something to make it seem like a birthday.  Im thinking fairy bread, some chippies and they had some xmas lollies on special so I grabbed a bag of those. Ill bake a cake as well... Its not easy doing something, not only do we still not know that many people, but during the holidays too makes it hard to organise people to come.  But will give it a go, he'll be happy I think.
