BLESSED SPEEDY

Firstly - happy anniversary to Gary and I - we've been married for 18 years now and amazingly we still like each other! To celebrate (in a way) we went for a drive to Moulamein as neither of us had ever really been there. Its a quaint old town and very different type of country side (mainly rice) but we were both surprised by the size of the town and the nice feel of it. Found a take away and got some lunch which we sat and ate on the river bank which was lovely. We do like our Sunday drives and it was nice didnt have to do firewood this time! The other "event" that happened this week was Mothers Day and I had been getting more and more nervous about the day as it got closer. I so miss Mum and she loved Mothers Day. Every Mothers Day I would either take mum out somewhere or bring here here to the farm and have cake and a cuppa. If she came here she would always say she would have black tea as I was the only one who knew how to make it the way she liked. In the vill

And yet again Im late to post what I did last week - and you know what - I have No Idea what i did last week! Weve been super busy on the farm getting the last of the seed in to be watered before the end of the irrigation season on the 15th of May. I think we are the most organised we have ever been but it does still seem like a rush to the finish line. We've had some beautiful sunny days but the mornings and evenings are a little fresh - still havent lit the wood heater yet as the split system is keeping up with things atm Still no finishes on the crafting front - but I have prepped the final blocks for the Owl and Hare Hollow block of the month quilt - so Ill work on the handsewing parts of the blocks while watching tv at night. Reading wise I finished the fourth book in the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Maas - Queen of Shadows Again loved loved loved this book The pace doesnt stop I love how Celaena (who is now Aelin) is becoming such a badass and fighter. She is not afr

And once again I am reporting my weeks activities late - I really dont know where the days and time go! One minute Im getting up out of bed to start the day and the next minute its bed time again - does anyone else feel like that? In cute family news - Mr cutie Ollie is two months old and honestly it doesnt get much cuter than this does it? Cant wait to get back to queensland to see him! On the farm we have been getting ready for out biannual dairy audit - which means lots of paperwork to be done and cleaning too so not much fun at all On the crafting side of things I havent finished anything else but still chipping away at the Owl and Hare Hollow Block of the month quilt - I think I have 10 or so blocks to go - and then join them all together, quilt and bind etc - hardly anything at all really LOL On the reading front - still listening to the same audio book as last week so no review there but I have finished the third book in the Heir of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas - Heir of Fire.
