[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 296726, member: 1991"] I'm happy with husband and his magic printer-fixing fingers - it's not yet 11 pm and the whole job is done. Entirely. I've even assembled two invitations that easy child 2/difficult child 2 needs to hand-deliver. She had thought they were needed for tomorrow night, turns out she was way too early. So there's plenty of time. However, I'm now locked in to going out tomorrow to deliver them, so I'm going to try to organise things so I can maybe see my GP (unless I set up the appointment for Thursday or Friday, I have to go out both days); I'll post the whole boxful of printed work down to easy child from the regional mail centre (instead of our sleepy little regional post office) and also do it early enough to get the morning mail. This should make up for not catching the 3 pm deadline today. I also need to buy food tomorrow, especially meat. We don't have our own animals to kill like you, Trish. been there done that when I was a kid, though. Part of me misses the farming life - until I read your descriptions. I'm just not fit enough to do it any more. I couldn't even wrangle a chook these days! My favourite author Terry Pratchett talks about storing food up in other people - you kill a beast and feed the neighbourhood. Then a few weeks on someone else kills a beast and feeds you (among others). Over a period of time as people need food, someone else kills a beast because it's their turn to feed the neighbourhood. That way - no need for fridges. The gluten-free organic snags sound good. I have a sausage roll recipe to die for, if you want it. Trish, where are you going overseas? Anywhere that you could drop in on some CD family? TM, Sharon also, enjoy your Tuesday. Marg [/QUOTE]
