The day has come...dadadah!

I have decided that tomorrow is the day. I have worked my way around the house and left the hardest room to last.  My room!  Tomorrow I am going to rescue it from the piles and mess that has been dumped during the school holidays and find my space again.


Then, I am going to take some pictures to remind myself how it needs to be to keep me inspired. When I look at other blogs and think about what i want to be doing, the biggest stumbling block is my space! It was beautiful and then holiday activity took over...

That's my plan and WILL have my space back again tomorrow.

I have to regardless, as Sam, http://girlonearl.blogspot.com.au
is coming over on thursday and she will expect it to be sorted!!

Sanity slowly returning...I hope!

Hello! Where to start?!? It's been so very busy with school holidays, a trip to Melbourne, school starting, a trip to the hospital AND our precious cat Sabrina having a very bad run this last week... I need to take a big deep breath! Amongst all this, I had an impromptu crochet lesson this afternoon at my friend Toni's house. Her dear Mum was Soo patient with me as I struggled to get my left hand to do the work! I think I got it and the proof will be in the doing I suppose! Will give it a go tomorrow...fingers crossed for success as keen to master it. I also had an unfortunate run-in with a guy pressure cleaning my neighbours' path which runs alongside my house... using my water!!! I came home to find a hose connected to my tap and the sound of pressure cleaning and many, many litres of water running away. A quick call to the real estate agent, and an onsite confrontation between them and problem solved. The owner brought me a lovely bunch of flowers to say sorry ( which was very lovely of her!) and an offer to cover the water used. Geez, I have to say though, I was very surprised at the lack of conscience in the guy. I thought it was illegal to do that...?? My sewing room has turned into the household dump as the chaos and torrid mess of school holidays is slowly cleared away. I hope to get in there soon... Until then, xx
