Australia day

It hot and steamy but starting to rain. We are going to oil the decking on the verandas if it doesnt rain too much, well maybe we will just get them ready. The painters are finished did a very good job, the boards are portland stone which is a creamy beige and the trim is white and royal blue, it looks very fresh and nice. We had black on the boards on the western side i thought they were from mould but the painters said no sunburnt. It took me four years to pick a colour scheme we had bits of different colours all over the house as I tried out different ones. This looks really nice. 
They have stopped the bed restrictions at work while the union negotiates with the government  over  nurse ratios but we are all annoyed as they didnt tell us what the governments offer is. Everyone I think is sick of government by creepy little backroom deals.  So thats as far as its got. I had two reasonable shifts as I only had 4 then 5 mothers to look after, a lot of caesars through still. 
Golf is back tomorrow I am getting nervous about it, its so hot and humid. Not doing much just hanging in the pool and gardening and little trips for iced coffee at the beach. Good news sisters house got rented finally to 2 dev delayed men. We think it will be funny as I think it will annoyed the next door neighbor who  has been using the bins.  She seemed to think we were unreasonable asking them not to and has gone right on doing it. She looked like a NIMBY to me (not in my back yard). I thought would I mind retarded men next door no at least they would be friendly. We have students both sides and of course being older we are invisible!
