Its raining again!
I love the rain sooo much..Its giving our poor dams which were down to 17% last year, giving them a wonderful top up..hopefully if it can contnue we will have lesser water restrictions. My garden is looking amazing. All the plants i thought had died are springing back to life..The only one complaining is Craig. This weather means cutting the grass once a week. But what once was a desert dustbowl front and back yard is now a rainforest..And i know why its raining too, See i got my electricity bill in december and nearly fainted.. Worked out it was because i was working and lazy and using the clothes dryer everyday..The clothes line was a forgotten relic of my past.. Lost in the backyard with no path leading to it anymore. A forgotten symbol of simpler times.. But..armed with my electricity bill i ventured out to find the long lost companion of many towelling nappies, countless school uniforms and basketfulls of underwear and childrens garments. And guess what? I found it. Nestled behind the house. A sorry sight with the lines sagging and the metal rusing. Cobwebs strewn all over..Not a peg to be seen!!! Oh old friend i have returned. I fixed the lines and scrapped off the rust, and hosed the cobwebs away. A trip to the shop and two packs of pegs later i was happily hanging out the washing.. The sun shone down and all was well.. Until the rains came..lol..so its farewell new friend and back to the dryer ..till this rain stops..
I have some sharing to do ...
Went to a crop yesterday at Jodys house. She has decided to open a shop herself from home, so good luck Jody..Had a great time yesterday, cant wait to go back..
Now dont forget this weekend at chookscraps we are having our cyber crop..
So pop on over and join in .
We have also strted a new competition, which im running. We had it last year called Chookscraps survivor island.. So much fun. This year its double the prizes, double the island and double the amount of challenges.. So come on and sign up. It starts friday the 25th of this month..
Now have done some DT work for chookscraps using their monthly pack..gorgeous papers. The pack is used in conjunction with the monthly scrap pack challenge. Another thing to look at whilst your over at chooks.
And here are some ive done over the past two weeks..
Well thats all for now..time to put another load of washing in the dryer..Whats that, i hear the whisperings of a desperate little voice coming from outside..its saying....."dont forget me..donet forget me..."...huh..me and my silly mind..
cheers
