Slow and steady.. Easter Monday

In some cultures what I do would be considered normal.
Good Morning to Easter Monday... 21st, 6.29, +9.3dg, forecasting a showery week ahead. I put the rain guage out in the garden a couple of days ago... I tested it first to make sure it is registering on the weather station inside, good to go. Last night it rained and no reading. I love technology. Yesterday was a lovely sunny day... brisk air temp but if you were in the shelter like a pussy cat on a bench seat it was lovely.. perfect for a bottle or so of Moet with my buddy. I opted out of lunch up the hill and took the bus home at a very respectable hour of 13.30. I am so missing the ability to ride my bike. Have decided to put my golf membership into pause mode, I may have been a little overly optimistic about my recovery so if I pause it for the 2014 year then pressure is off and I can still use the driving range when I am knee ready. Today I am going to try to do my terrasse tubs.. there is an emphasis on the try, but I am sick of looking at them still in last summer's ratty offering. My jobs around the house are starting to stack up but I am determined I am not going to pay someone to come in and do these things for me. The one that is really worrying me is the Dach papier for the lean to.. it has completely broken down and will take a little more than my pathetic one legged ability to remove the old and replace with new... on a ladder !! All I can say is Grrrr. Today I am gong to marinate and slow cook on the bar-b -que a beautiful piece of New Zealand lamb.. boned legs were being sold in the Spar Supermarkt for €20.00 not bad!! I may just push the boat out and open a cheeky wee New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc for Aperitivo. In conversation yesterday I learned that a good friend of a good friend is going to NZ next week to look at the possibility of purchasing a dairy farm, Nth or Sth, to go with the forestry portfolio holding in Gisborne. I know NZ likes foreign investment.. I don't know that I entirely agree. Just my opinion.
