TWO TREES

Well... today I am putting additions on TWO trees.  
This is not something I thought I'd be doing!

But at least the neighbour's tree is really small.

I put a pom pom on it late last night, and this morning I have a couple of little things to hang off it too.

And then there is MY tree as well.  I have a fairly standard addition for it too.

 ABOVE:  I have my beady eyes on our little tangelo tree.  There's two fruit almost ready to pick.  It's exciting!  
Yeah I know, I'm a bit sad.

ABOVE: And this lot!  Every single cutting I shoved into a pot has grown heaps!  I'm really proud, I have made this corner so nice.

So today is going to be the first 'normal' day for me in a long time.
Stew is at work, so is Brylee, and Lacy is away for a few days.  
So it really is going to be just me at home!

I am going to be in the studio working on a cot quilt for the morning, so I will put out my OPEN sign.  Let's see if I get anyone popping in today?

ONWARD...


ABOVE:   Now I am really set up to be in the Studio half the day... happily.
I do so much on my compter, it really needed to be in here with me while the shop is open.

Also, if someone wants to pay via internet banking, they can do it here on my computer.

AND YES STEVE:  I will turn the computer off and give it at least 10 minutes to wind down completely before I move it back to the family room in the evening.  No more frozen computer!

Who else is like me and needs their spaces (home/work etc) to be JUST RIGHT before they can be happy?   I do my head in all the time having to get things in the right place.
The garage is still NOT sorted out properly, but there's not much I can do about it until Brylee and Lacy's stuff is OUT of here.

Once Lacy leaves, we are going to be doing a big shuffle in the bedrooms too.
But that's for another day, another blog post.

It's almost 2 pm, time to close the shop and go out.  I want to look at a few things in Harvey Norman's.  

 ABOVE:  I was prepared today!  I made myself a cheese and onion sandwich and kept it in the garage till lunchtime.  Let's call the garage the 'lunch room'  ha ha ha!

I had only one lady pop in today, she was very quiet.  So I didn't try to engage her in conversation... I dislike pushy sales people, so just let her browse.

ABOVE:  I put a couple of things out the front so people could get an idea of what I am selling.  I'll sort something better eventually, that will do for now.

Right, I'm off for a while.

5.25 pm: And I've been home a good hour or so.
Shopping/window shopping... meh.  Didn't really see anything I wanted at Harvey Norman's (for now anyway).  I'm kinda mattress shopping still.

I did manage to take advantage of a good sale at a shop I rather like:

ABOVE:  I got some stuff.  The deal was 'Spend $40, get 40% off'... so I did!  lol.
I will show you what I got tomorrow.  Right now I need to get working on dinner. 

Crumbed chicken with rice and veges is for dinner tonight.

Dinner was OK, could have been tastier.  
Stew and Brylee seem to have enjoyed it, they are both having it for lunch tomorrow as well.

Coronation Street is interesting... but I'm so OVER the story line between Geoff and Yasmeen.  I wish they would wind it up and get it over with!    But no, I'm sure it will drag on forever.

Well... that's the end of today.  I'll be back.... tomorrow.
