This week.
Another week gone by. I have been doing a few things which makes a change. We went out for lunch on Friday & Monday. We had some vouchers that were running out. Ed was working the weekend so had Friday & Monday off.
We had an Indian meal on Friday which was lovely but parking in Parramatta is such a nightmare. We were waiting to go into a space when a young person came the wrong way down the road & got in even though she knew we were waiting. I can really see how road rage starts. I was so angry I felt like hitting her which is crazy for a parking spot. We drove off though. It was a beautiful day & we had coffee in a Cuban coffee shop & the sun was burning my legs.
Monday we went into the city, down to Walsh Bay. We had to move again because of the sun glaring off the water. It was a tapas place & the food was lovely. The deal included a bottle of wine so it was great value. We walked around the Bay & could hear the Sydney Dance Company practicing. What a place to have their studio.
By the time we got home I had a headache & felt nauseated. Wine , food & sun. not a good combination for me. It was such a nice day though.
I had a strange time at work on the weekend. I got a call to say a man was walking on the street swinging a walking stick about & seemed distressed. Off I go to check & he was using his stick like a golf club! He would'nt let me get close to him & could'nt tell me his name or where he came from. As I am thinking what to do & following him, we were by the charity bin when a van pulls up to empty it. The driver yells at me to go to the office which is closed on the weekend so I shout at him "There is just me" " don't get too close, he is like a wild animal, he doesn't know you & will go for you!"he yells back.
I called the police & by the time they came we were almost at my place! Ed drove past on his way from work & didn,t see me even though we were in the middle of the roundabout & the man was swiping the branches of a tree with his stick! I rang Ed & he came to help but got nowhere. I called the police again as by this time we had crossed the road-- without getting run over & were giong in a different direction. I then heard loud speakers as the police were looking for us. When they approached the man he was like a mouse. Must have been the uniform. We got back to the cllinic & I worked out where he was from & we took him back to the Hostel. The staff were about to call the police as they couldn't find him. I then got a lift back to my car, thanked the police officer who was driving & waved to the one in the back seat who was waving to me. He then shouted for me to open the door as he couldn't get out!! I did'nt realize there were no door handles in the back
I then had to start the next round. What a night! The next person I saw opened her door to me & said"Happy Mother's Day!" I looked up to check if it was a full moon but no, just another evening at work!!
