First up for the day is for us to hang a new addition on the tree.
I was told my tree was on a local Facebook page last night, so I popped over to take a look.
Yep, there was my tree:
We certainly chose a really lovely neighbourhood to move into! When we decided to move from Cambridge to Hamilton, the one area we wanted to be in THE MOST was North Hamilton. And...We are exactly where we wanted to be.
I asked him to help tie a knot around a pom pom last night... OMG it was like watching a two year old try to tie it's own shoelaces. Hopeless.
Lucky for me he is very handy at other things. *smiles* Love you Darling.
It is supposed to rain this afternoon... fingers crossed it actually DOES! I will hold off watering everything... in case the forecast is actually correct.
Right, I better get outta bed and hang those pom poms, so those who walk/cycle/drive by today get to see a new addition.
ONWARD...
ABOVE: Up bright and early to get that new addition on. LOTS of walker and runners first thing in the morning!
I felt quite 'safe' up on the ladder today as Stew was holding on to it, and me bum when NECESSARY. Somehow I don't think it was necessary at all... but oh well. He's a bloke.
I finished all the painting this morning too... just in time really, as it is looking like rain might be coming later on?
Now what to do? Lunch, followed by some crochet I think.
Stew is super busy at work... he's on the phone constantly today! I'm so glad he went back to work instead of continuing our 'holiday'.
SO looking forward to having that holiday... even though it probably won't be for months now.
8.15 pm: I have been knitting all afternoon! And watching Netflix on me computer. Murder Mystery movies. Love it.
I used left over chicken and bacon from last night and made a potato top pie for our dinner.
It was really YUM.
Now... It's wind down time... we had have constant drizzle and rain since mid morning, it's been wonderful.
I hope it lasts till tomorrow as predicted.
Catch ya tomorrow.
Super cute!
ReplyDeleteLove your bubbles and pom poms.
ReplyDeleteCould you use velcro to secure the higher up pieces? It would be easier than sewing up high. It's lovely that you are bringing smiles to the neighbourhood.
ReplyDeleteYou r famous Chris...like the idea of velcro or tying to the tree you climbing up there on top of ladder OMG girl we don't want you an ACC statistic...where Lacy when ya need her she would swing from branch to branch lol
ReplyDeleteLove the fence. What a great idea. And I love your lumberjack cake. I've baked it twice now. Second time a bit less sugar and it was perfect.

ReplyDeleteYou go girl what you and Stew the bum holder are doing is awesome!! George's Mum.
ReplyDeleteI am sure Stew did a sterling job of holding you bum - but did it really take an hour to hang that stuff on the tree or were you just having too much fun hahahaha
