Only a little mending to show this week, Ive been away staying with family at the beach, we had fantastic days of sunshine, warmth; beaches and rivers to walk beside and special time with family. Now its back to the grind of cleaning the pavers and paving walls of the mould. We came home to a lovely surprise our DGS had been looking after the home for us had water blasted the whole of the front patio for us: its a huge job. what a wonderful home coming that was.
Lovely golden beaches as far as the eye can see.
At Noosa river mouth were many of the kite surfers hang out
On one of our beach walks we found lots of jellyfish including blue stingers so there was no swimming for us that day.
This fellow is not so nice if he stings you.
Some one busy making sand balls and tossing them out his back door!!!! some of the patterns are amazing.
Kite surfing was in full swing the day we went down about 30 people were out there having fun including my DS
Patched jeans using sashiko stitching. It took me 6 hrs to do this mending as they were thick jeans and it was one stitch at a time LOL But he was soooooo sooooo happy when he saw them and said they will last me another 2 years now!!!!!!
I mended two pairs of my DS favourite jeans!!!!! but it was important they still looked raggedy!!!!!!!
Instead of sewing today I was water-blasting these block walls on the road frontage. Ones on the right still to do when I took this photo. All finished now.
Thank you for dropping in hopefully I will have more sewing to share next week.
Cheers Glenda

what beautiful scenes – the ocean is pretty and such lovely beautiful creatures – even if some sting – they are beautiful to look at from a safe distance. we too in the spring have to clean our walkways of mold and moss – it grows so much in humid areas. Your grandson so nice to have made a start on the project for you!! I have not gotten done with a lot of sewing this week either – the garden dig up that we are doing will take weeks to get done – it is back to humidity this week and I do not work well in hot sticky weather
Hi Karen Nossa is one of Australia’s loveliest spots if you love the sea, every where is the ocean golden beaches, surf, wonderful walks along the cliff tops in the national parks, with a harbour thrown in too. I think we live in very similar climates and even have the same wild creatures from crocs to snakes LOL I managed to finish cleaning the road frontage yesterday but boy Im very slow to day LOL We have a swimming pool but I never use it in our winter time but yesterday I would have gone in if it had been cleaner LOL. I would never be able to do gardening in the summer time with our been able to constantly cool off in it. Its not a big pool but deep so stays cool all summer. Cheers Glenda
How wonderful you could spend time at the beach with your family. Is that a back view of you in the very first photo? I enjoyed the pictures of the jelly fish and the blue ones too. I hope your leg is all healed and you are up and going again. Blessings, Gretchen
Ohhh I wish I was that size still Gretchen LOL. It’s is my DGD her boyfriend brought her up to see us for the whole day she is at UNI 2 hrs from my DS’s home. So we were very lucky to have fun all day with them. Leg is still a problem but much better than it was. Hugs Glenda
