Another dress

Ok thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes. I had a nice quiet day at home. We did go out for a coffee and some cake, which was lovely. With some birthday moeny I bought myself a very pretty free standing jewellery box which will hold all my cosmetic jewllery, I don't have much 'real' stuff, but it will be displayed really nice. I did recieve some fabric for my birthday, which one piece I have already turned into another dress. It did take a bit more work, because I made it full length. I will post a photo on here somewhere...

Other than that been pretty busy with cleaning and housework. Still trying to finish the vegie patch, just get the last of the dirt in, but have had a trailer full of seed for the chickens that I got at a great price. So we have been unable to get a load of dirt, it's all gone so maybe tomorrow or the next day it will all be finished up.

I hope everyone had a great easter over the long weekend. The house buying is almost complete, then I will post a few piccies of the inside...

Rogue is pregnant! And has quite a few puppies which will make an appearance in about 7 weeks. It will get very exciting then!

Not much work happening for me as I took some more leave for easter and my birthday. It has been another nice break from work. Sometimes it is nice to sleep in, and I have been busy doing LOTS of house work to get the house tidy. It does tend to pile up while I am working shifts, so normal do most of it on my days off.

  1. Well i've already typed a comment but apparently I did it wrong so here goes again.
    I didn't take long to get you material sewed up and it looks nice. should be cool. Won't be long before you're enjoying those fresh homegrown veges. Our attempts at growing veges out here wasn't very successful - what with turkeys, bandicoots bugs and weeds and having to cart water. It will be much easier when we get to town
    I wrote you a little limerick
    There was a young lady called Toni
    Who married a Mr Gasco-nie
    He said "You're good lookin'
    And do scrumptuous cookin"
    She said "What a lot of Baloney"
