Thanks to all of you have gave me sympathy about the state of my sewing area - two days later its done (well I still have to file stuff Ive printed off...but will do that tonight)
Well done!! :)) Now would you like to come and do mine, LOL. I have my sewing area in the living room area too. However, when my DS moved out I was able to move a lot of it into his room which is now my sewing 'store' room.. but there's still plenty in the living room >G< I don't think I'd like to actually sew locked away in a bedroom.

I am IMPRESSED I actually spread myself over three rooms! well two and a nook in the hall, that's where the sewing machine lives, cupboards a mini ironing board space to sew but nothing else. Main mess room behind dining room, I made an effort to clean up and bought two bookcases to store books, mags and some fabric, still in process of organizing. Third room half of a spare bedroom, I had to move the table tennis table I was cutting out on when Alan bought me a quilting frame/machine which takes up most of this room now. Also we have a computer each now one in each top corner I have a corner desk Also a huge mess, but you have INSPIRED ME. GOOD ON YOU.,
My Mum Mum was a quiet achiever, going through life with all its ups and downs with little complaining and always enjoyed the escape of a good book. My Mum was lovely – she cared so much about her family and so loved to hear about all our goings on Although in later life she had health issues – she faced them all bravely and worked to find out the best way to live her best life and bore them with dignity. Her life was one of change and she changed and adapted with the changes. Pamela Blanche Geoghegan was born in Bendigo on the 30th December 1938 (yes she just missed her birthday this year) to loving parents Stanley Norman Geoghegan and Emily Ada Blanche Pattinson. The year previously her brother Brian Stanley was born but he died shortly after birth. When she was only 6 years old her father Stan passed away at the age of 30 and for the next 13 years it was just Pam and her mother Blanche living together and they got on famously as Mum would say. The first change in her life. N
The 4th of March 2024 is now a very special day for our family - it was the day Ollie (Oliver) Michael Sterling arrived! There was a lot of waiting for his arrival and Sarah was 11 days overdue I had been in Airlie Beach awaiting his happy arrival for 2 weeks - Gary and Aimee came for a week but unfortunately missed out on his arrived by a couple of days. Oh he is such a cute little dude! Kris, Sarah, Evie and Jessie are totally besotted with him as are we all! So enjoy the cute pics below and excuse me my lack of blog posting!
This week has been so very hard. My beautiful Mum went to be with Jesus on Thursday 21st December. I am so very grateful that I was able to sit with her for countless hours in her last days - boy did I talk some rubbish to her as she slept and I embroidered and I wouldnt pass it up for the world. Now we are in the midst of making "arrangements" and I am so very aware that Mum would want me to get it "right". She was definate on that when organising my stepfather Austens funeral and Id like to be able to do the same. Because of Christmas and New Year and holidays etc her funeral will be on Tuesday 2nd January at 11am at AG Adams Funerals in Kerang and then she will be joining Austen at Kerang Cemetry. I miss her so - all the phone calls, visiting her, spending time with her (and also the other residents and staff at Cohuna village) A large part of my life and days is now gone and Ill need to work out what the new routine is. I do plan on going back to the villa
