Just Chilling



We have been busy enjoying the school holidays, and great weather. The car hasn't left the shed since I got home on Monday and that's just the way I like it.........

I have been getting up at 6a.m and going out to the garden for a couple of hours every morning while the children are still sleeping, it's a lovely way to start my day. I must admit though it's hard to come inside and do the housework..

Today I am looking after my niece and nephew, I will be looking after them every Thursday for 5 or 6 weeks. The little one is teething and not a happy boy, he's sleeping at the moment though.....so I don't think I will be getting much done today, just lots of cuddling I won't be complaining............

The dry creek bank is finished yahhhhhhhhhh and I must say that it looks great. I'll take some photos to show later today. Yesterday we took 2 trailer loads of old palm fronds and dead wood out of the macadamia trees and there is still more to do. Removing this dead wood has opened the garden up and let the sun in. We have 16 macca trees, there were about 25 when we moved in, but there was alot of deceased ones that we had to remove. When they are in season the younger children collect them and sell them out the front. They get there spending money for the holidays this way, and the nuts get cleaned up as well......

I want to thank you all for the lovely comments that you leave me, I enjoy every one of them. I love getting to know you through blogging and I am enjoying this journey.Still trying to learn more about the things I can do though. I need to put some time aside and work things out....I'll leave that for a rainy day, (that's faith for you)

Baby is stirring so time to go...
