Time flies...



Hello all :)
Sorry I have not been around much lately. I have been working full time again and have not been able to find the time to post after catching up on all the normal day to day chores. I hope everything is well with you. Everything is good here even if a little water-logged! The photo above is of the road I usually take to get to work. It was blocked for the weekend which was convenient! Lyndon found a little turtle yesterday on his way back from Ararat. I am keeping it in a tractor tyre that used to be a sandpit but will let it go tomorrow down at the swamp. It is lovely and sunny here today which is great as we need the paddocks to dry out so they can harvest the wheat and barley without getting bogged every 50 metres. Not much else to report at the moment. Life is pretty good! Best wishes to you all. C ♥

Happy New Year...


Hello and welcome to 2011. How was your Christmas? I had a lovely couple of days in Daylesford with my family and received some great presents! It feels so long ago now. How did you welcome the new year? Fireworks and fun? We didn't go anywhere or do anything special, just stayed home and relaxed. I have not made any new year's resolutions... have you?

I have enjoyed a nice long weekend and am ready to go back to work tomorrow. I made a lemon slab cake, did lots of washing, caught up on bookwork, cleaned the windows, vacuumed the house, mowed the lawns... a very productive weekend!

One of my Christmas presents was a little box of Affirmations by Kate Knapp ... this one caught my fancy today. "I had a blood test and it seems I have high expectations. So I'm on a strict diet of no expecting and lots of enjoying." Sounds like a plan! Cheerio for now. C ♥
