Nature at it’s best. One Of our blue orchids in the garden.
I really think I should not be doing this, so many things have gone on the blink today including my WOW blog I have written all ready today & then the computer froze up & I lost it all as the computer had to be switched off in the end & be rebooted!!!!!! My own fault as I had not been saving. SO this is my second attempt dropping a line before the links are closed!!!!!!
Our day started off beautifully sunny warm & very still with the only noise the birds dawn chores which goes from around 5am till 9.30am even a kookaburra visited us.
Sitting in my kitchen window tree
All 10 of us one by one ended up around the swimming pool at different times eating our breakfast it now looks very empty & lonely.
An empty spot till breakfast each morning
Then we had one of the toilets block & over flow thank goodness it was the one down stairs, so that was a delightful job to clean up.
Paola started to work on her last shirring dress & my trusty old Bernina 830 let me down, she went in to over drive at full speed & took off, I yanked out the treadle foot but she was still roaring away so yanked out the power supply. So it is off to the magic Bernina repair man when possible.
Well it looks like there will be no photo’s this week, my computer is refusing to upload any photo’s?????
One of our Canadian guests left this after-noon & I have already stripped the bed & remade it & now it is covered with Esther’s blocks!!!!!!!!!!!
Esther's quilt laying on a bed again???????
I did not even let the dust settle first???????
Our American girls left 30 mins ago heading further up North & are planning on sleeping beside a beach some where tonight. They are travelling in a wee wee mini van
Girls mini mini campervan????
& having so much fun seeing the far north.
Today I have been doing endless loads washing as the family is packing up tomorrow to be ready for a 4.20am start Saturday morning, the disadvantages of an early flight. The above is just a few things that happened today!!!!!!!
Well good news, hubby has managed to fix my sewing machine, the light was shorting out & was causing the problem; so he has disconnected the light & I have my machine for tomorrow so maybe Paola will be able to finish her dress & my computer has woken up & has allowed me to down load some photo’s?????? What a good way to end a bad day. Oh yes & hubby was also able to fix the loo problem, airn’t hubby’s a great invention??????? On that note I will say goodnight
