Foggy start

​

This morning the fog was pretty thick 

It was actually worse than it shows. 

It didn’t burn off until after nine and now we have a beautiful sunny day  

Yesterday hubby asked me to organise getting the last six months of bank statements 

So off I go into Cranbourne to organise it at the bank. 

Stupid me 

I headed off at nine, thinking I’ll get there just as the bank opened its doors 

Again. Stupid me. 

I parked and went into the centre 

Walked to the bank and what did I see?

Its totally block off. They’re apparently doing “ renovations “

I have no idea why. If it’s not broken, don’t fix it. 

I was not a happy camper 

So a little retail therapy, I decided, would help

I went into the reject shop. Because I’m a tight wad according to my family and friends. lol 

I bought all sorts of bits and bobs. Most of which I really did need. A few others to add to the stash. Like washing tablets. I have a whole bag in the cupboard under the sink but I thought I’d get another while I was there. 

I then decided I’d bite the bullet and get me some jeans. 

I’ve not bought proper jeans in over a decade. Real jeans are not something you can buy on line. You have to try them on. 

I walked in looking flummoxed, which the lovely young lass obviously saw. 

I asked her for help getting the right kind of jeans for me

My must haves 

High waisted 

Very stretchy 

And straight legged. 

None of these skinny teen jeans. 

She took me to the exact ones I needed 

I told her my size was 14-16

She said that these were so stretchy they advised going down a size. 

She gave me a 12

THEY FIT PERFECTLY 

I was happily surprised 

They had a deal buy one get the second one half price. 

Unfortunately they didn’t have a 12 in the other colour. I felt a Moment of panic thinking I’d have to go to another store to get the second pair. 

I did not

The second pair will be sent out to me

After the fiasco of the bank I was extremely pleased 

After I get home I sit down to ring the bank hotline 

Now we all know ringing the bank you have to prepare all your snacks, drinks, and to not be too far from the bathroom 

I got my card and rang 

Yup you go through all the please press this number dance only to be told at the end that there is a long wait because their  telephonists are all busy. They then suggest online banking 

So now, finally, have surrendered and have mobile banking on my phone 

I held out as long as I could 

Having said that. 

It was easy to download the app. 

Took minutes to set up and I was able to download and send all the statements in an email  to the workshop 

I rang wonderson and informed home that there were six emails from me to him. 

He thanked me and said he would print them out shortly 

Now. If men did what we asked them to do as quickly as I did. Well. There would be no such thing as nagging 

Don’t you agree?
