20160302 – Wednesday – Leaving Pinnaroo

1. I liked this sign on this farm. It is a bit how my day has gone today. I have had trouble with my GPS and battery charger and such, so everything seems to have been a bit of “hit AND Miss!

I woke up at 5:30 and finally got dressed at about 6 o’clock.

I drove to Pinnaroo centre and stopped at the Roadhouse there. Again I had scrambled eggs on toast a flat white and the newspaper to catch up on all the news.

I drove on towards Owen spelt OUYEN. I then decided it was time to take my drugs.

I went to the back of my car  to get out my testing equipment, whatever that thingy is called that  records my sugar levels.

Lo and behold, I found that I had packed some brie cheese next to my testing equipment. This of course had melted and filled my testing equipment with cheese!

Then I  found I couldn’t find my new packet of needles. Iknow they are somewhere in my car, but where I don’t know.

I went to my bag and found two pencils of Lantus  and Novarapid (insulin) and used them because they already had needles attached.

Now I am about to head off on the next leg of my journey towards Ouyen.

I drove until 9.42 and then ha a nap for 10 mins or so. Refreshed I drove on.

The rest of the day sped by with lots of annoying little things happening.

I have an attachment that is supposed to plug into my cigarette lighter to hold my phone in a position where I can read the GPS. I had all sorts of trouble with that and in the end it fell to bits.

I am so “unmechanically” minded, but I eventually I  managed to put it all together again, but obviously not correctly, because it didn’t do what it was supposed to do,charge my phone.

Then I was trying to used google maps and I wanted to find out how to set it up to avoid tolls.  Well, that took me ages to do.

Just hope I can remember what I did today so I can set it up again tomorrow!!!

Anyway, I am at Hay in the Cafeteria at the service station there and I have charged my phone and I am about to drive to the Showgrounds because it is cheap and has showers and such There are other places, but the Showgrounds will do for tonight. Cost $15.

I wish the Wurfel’s lived at Hay as well as at Pinnaroo!

So everyone, that’s it for today.
