Here we go again...

Such frequent updates (three weekly) are becoming more normal. Jeanette has had her right foot in a moon boot, then a cast, now back to moon boot for about 6 weeks or so. She is getting pretty sick of the way it has clipped her wings. Still, it could have been worse, and now at least it is getting much closer to getting resolved.

I don't have any further health related news - other than my broken big toe is pretty good now. Just waiting for the new nail to grow (under the old one which they glued back in place).

Work is going well and keeping me busy. I have to go over to Sydney for a few days in about 3 weeks. It is a good chance to meet with some of the brand managers at that end and also upskill in a few areas of product knowledge which are currently under-represented on this side of the Tasman.

I promised jokes for this time, so here we go...

Why do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke?

Why do banks leave vault doors open and then chain the pens to the counters?

Why do we leave cars worth thousands of pounds in our driveways and put our useless junk in the garage?

EVER WONDER ...

Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?

Why can't women put on mascara with their mouth closed?

Why don't you ever see the headline 'Psychic Wins Lottery'?

Why is 'abbreviated' such a long word?

Why is it that doctors call what they do 'practice'?

Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavouring, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?

Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?

Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?

Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?

Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitoes?

Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?

You know that indestructible black box that is used on airplanes? Why don't they make the whole plane out of that stuff?!

Why don't sheep shrink when it rains?

Why are they called apartments when they are all stuck together?

If flying is so safe, why do they call the airport the terminal?


Cheers,
