Visited my oldest daughter

One of her dogs go ill over the weekend and had major surgery. The dog went home on Monday but daughter needed a dog sitter for mid morning Tuesday so I took the day off (Tuesday was going to be a bit slow anyway). It's a 60 minute drive so I stopped at McDonalds for breakfast coffee on the way there

I got into her neighbourhood just as the sun was coming up and went to the waterfront to have an early drone flight.

She rang me while I was at the waterfront asking when I would arrive, I advised her I was still in girl mode and would need to change first, she said don't bother, just come as you are and your welcome to get changed here.

So I arrived and her other dog was excited to see me jumped on me (as usual), I was expecting my stockings to be ripped apart as her paws and claws slide down my legs after the greeting but they held out. We had a drink before she left for her half day of work. When she got back we had a lovely in-depth chat for about an hour before I headed for home.

I stopped on the way home at Mitre 10, checked out the garden rakes and visited the coffee shop in their premises for another coffee and snack.

I got home around 3pm, did a few house chores and cooked dinner for when my wife came home getting changed about 30 minutes before she got home - of course she asked me to try again at taking my makeup off, not sure if it's the mascara or eyeshadow she keeps on seeing

Saturday, Up early before anyone at home wakes and head out for coffee.

 
People were setting up market stalls in the town centre next to the cafe and some stalls were trading by 8am so I decided to spend a few minutes looking over the produce and products for sale.
8.15 and Labtest has already opened, so I visit so they can take a sample of blood to check an illness. I was about the 12th person through the door and had to wait with everyone else for about 15 minutes before having a tiny bit of blood removed. 

Remembering my wife, kids and grandkids were going out for half a day, I decided there was no hurry and I could surprise my wife by making progress on a patio project.

I returned to Mitre 10 and bought a rake I saw on Tuesday, but was to excited to get half a meter of course metal for a patio base that I didn't stop for coffee this time.

Made it to Central Landscape in the same outfit, borrowed a trailer and got my course metal home. I decided these jeans weren't suitable for shoveling the stones from the trailer on the front driveway, into a wheelbarrow and around to the rear of my home, so changed into gym leggings that I've worn during all the digging I've done to level the patio area. I was so anxious to get the trailer back, I just rocked up in the tee shirt and dirty leggings. 

By this time, I really needed lunch (a coffee at breakfast isn't overly filling), but decided to wear my wifes wrap dress as I didn't want to go in with scruffy clothes.

By the time wife and family got back home, while I was changed into male clothes, wife decided we should head out to other family visits - AFTER I remove my eye makeup (I can't see it so it can't be there right?)
