Jasper...

He loves to sleep on something soft... Usually it is this pillow that Russell uses for lower back support when he watches a movie...

Caught Jasper yesterday morning sleeping with his nose buried into the sofa... No idea how that's comfortable. As for me, I can't stand anything touching my nose at all but he was peaceful for the long time that he did end up sleeping there... Cutie...

Decluttering the fridge...

The surface of the fridge is something I'm always very aware of. It is also said that when the fridge is cluttered, then so are the main living areas of ones house... 

I absolutely love a clean and clear fridge... I used to have a million magnets and all sorts of receipts, posters and notes hanging off mine. I could barely get into the fridge, let alone see what was on the outside... That changed years ago and my mind is sooooo much better for it... I really don't handle living with clutter in my own home. It is suffocating to me... When I go to someone's house and they have clutter, I know I can escape that in a short period of time so it botheres me very little. After all, I'm there to see the person I'm visiting and not their stuff...

My fridge had a couple of things on there that didn't need to be...there were also four magnets that I didn't love anymore and weren't useful... So they left for charity :)

Loved my fridge before and now even more so :)

Clearing Sale...

Today, we go to our first one, ever...

And we are selling our backhoe and bucket off the tractor. They are both in good nick but not for us. The bucket was too heavy for the bell housing and therefore snapped off the tractor. The tractor is also too light for the backhoe, due to the black soul so useless to us as well... So finally they're going...

The best bit about all of this is that the clearing sale is right next door... The auctioneer, Stuart was able to come over with the bobcat yesterday and pick everything up and take it over... Auction is on at 10am... Can't wait... We don't care what they go for as long as they do :)

Blessings,


There goes the backhoe...


And the bucket :)

Macaroons...

Made a heap last night. The receipe only has 2 ingredients too, which I liked allot... Most are for a stall for the school P & C to sell and the rest are for the boys... They turned out great! All bags are labelled, dated, packed and ready for their new homes... ;)

Blessings,


Russell did a great job mixing...

Homemade Lemonade...

These are the first lots off Josh's tree this season. Many more to come off... They are going to be our drink tomorrow night :) Lemonades straight from our garden = Sheer heaven ;) Nom Nom Nom...

Blessings,

That time of year...

It takes a while to fill the crates... My hand is still not at full capacity. But it's getting there... Except for the smallest pieces, it's all done with my left hand.

I filled four crates this morning. I found a couple of big solid logs for overnight burning too and left the trolley on its side for easy moving...

Gonna be warm for the next few nights ;) This is where I wish I was home tonight and not going to work. On the other hand, I do so love my job, so am looking forward to coming home to the warmth tomorrow instead ;) A movie night has already been planned :)

Blessings,
