MY NEW THINGEE

 Well, yesterday didn't go quite to plan.

Stew and I were going to work in the garden, but after visiting Mitre 10 and buying a new thingee, it took a while to get it put together.

So, the gardens got put on the back burner.

We'll no doubt get them done today.

But for now... here's what we bought yesterday, which Stew expertly put together I might add, with just a bit of help from our son Steve at the beginning:

ABOVE: Taaa Daaa!  A workbench with pegboard, and heaps of storage underneath.

We got the wrong size lids for the black boxes, so a trip back to Mitre 10 will happen this morning.

Other than that, it's so neat!  The drawer under the bench top slides all the way out too.  It's got all me bobbins and  cottons in use, along with various other bits 'n' bobs in it.  I love it!

It replaces the 'baby change table' that I had by the sewing machine.  I shall probably sell that, as there ain't no more babies coming our way!

ABOVE:  So, me new sewing space is all set up now, and ready for action.  Shame there's no rush to do any more sewing ... as we have no markets lined up for months yet.  If even this year!

Lucky I love sewing ... I'll still keep making stuff. 😊

ABOVE:  Lastly for now... there's our Marley, trying to be with Steve while he was helping Stew.  She's so damn cute!  She loves her Steve.

Right, catch ya later.

10.54 am:  We are definitely on the ball today.

Up and attem'.

I went down to Mitre 10 to switch out the boxes we bought yesterday.  They do no have lids! lol

Which means we 'stole' 6 lids from them.  😂😆

After that I went to Bunning and bought a laundry trolley.  

Then to the dairy for cream.  I'm making scones for afternoon tea.

OH!  We bought a boat today too!!!

ABOVE:  YEP.

It's freakin' cute as.  Probably end up in the rockery.

ABOVE:  So I ended up getting three clear boxes, and using two shallower boxes that I already had for that space under the bench top.

Now I just have fill them!  How hard is that gunna be?  Hmmm....

7.32 pm:   Been a while since I updated today!

We've been busy.  

Stew did the weeding and mowed the lawns.

Brylee has been moved out.

Steve helped Stew do that.

Bex and the boys came over, and once the men were back they had a swim.

I made cheese scones for afternoon tea:

ABOVE: They turned out amazing.  Everyone enjoyed them.

ABOVE: I decided to sell the Baby Change Table that I had been using in the sewing room.

Bex helped me post it for sale on Marketplace (Facebook), and I also did a public 'For Sale' post on my Facebook account too.

It sold in under 10 minutes!

FINALLY!  Back to just Stew and I for a week or so.  Then Lacy moves in.

But hopefully she will keep to herself primarily, and we hardly know she's here.

Time to sign off for the day.  I'm bloody tired.  It's been a busy weekend.
