I have been sitting here alternately crying and grinning like a twit.
Today has been a very momentous day in Australia…
For the last three months, our country has been ‘experiencing’ a Continue reading “they said YES!”

flipping out
.
This morning I had a major anxiety filled panic-ridden flipout…
But first a bit of background.
Our youngest daughter is getting married in eight days.
yes – EIGHT!
Now I am already having a bit of a belly-wobble about what may or may not be expected of us (well ME) on the actual day, but I also don’t Continue reading “flipping out”
comparisons
.
I’m having a bit of a ‘comparison’ dilemma at the moment and whilst I know that comparing oneself to others is never a healthy or helpful thing – I’m just not quite sure how to get it “out of my system”…
It makes it that much harder – because the person I am making the comparison with, is my Love.
My Love is 5 years older than me, and is a healthy happy vibrant person, who loves Continue reading “comparisons”
fruit & veg bags
Its been a damp drizzly cold morning, so I decided to drag out the sewing machine and knock up a few things with some “leftovers”.
First up was a pair of old cotton curtains that have seen better days, and are not longer of use in keeping the heat/cold out of the house, so they were sewn together to make bed/couch cover.
Then I used up a lace curtain, that just doesn’t fit with our idea of ‘decor‘ – which I made into bags to store fruit and veg in, in the fridge – and some will be used to cover ripening fruit, so the wildlife doesn’t steal it all.
They’re welcome to some excess, but they aren’t very good at sharing, so we’d rather it was us to be the ones to decide how much they get – not them! .
Next up is going to be an old super-light-weight shower curtain, that I am going to make into bags to take grocery shopping, so that I can put fruit and veg in them, instead of using the plastic bags that the supermarket provides.
The material even has a fruit & veg motif printed on it, so I reckon thats pretty darn appropriate! 😀
Hope you are having a nice day, and whatever you’re doing – I’d love to hear about it!
Cheers,

Today is the day that I go back to the house in town for a few days.
It’s always definitely on the list of my least favourite Continue reading “back to town”

Isn’t it odd how we get suckered into what ‘Society’ deems is important…?
I’m so glad that I am re-finding the person I used to be, and the person I want to be – ‘cos ya know what…??
I actually really quite like that person!! :))
