HOW LONG DID I TAKE?

YEARS.

Every time I mentioned to Stew that I wanted to stop blogging, he talked me out of it.

Now that I'm actually going to do it, it feels RIGHT.

Before, I was fairly easily swayed from the idea.  And to be honest, when I thought of doing it, I started to feel like maybe it wasn't the right thing to do.

I've blogged for so long it's second nature.  But... it's time.

And the plus is that I get to interact more with whoever reads my drivel on Facebook.

I hope you have sent me a friend request?  Because it won't be long before I do the switch, and make this blog PRIVATE.

I'm still going to be blogging as it serves as a very good resource for looking back and finding out when/where/how/what happened in our lives at various times.  But, just not making all the nitty gritty details of my daily life public anymore.

There will most likely be posts on Facebook every few days, mostly just newsy/crafty/travel photos and so on.

Less stress/pressure on me to produce daily content for readers of the blog.  

And let me assure you, it IS/HAS BEEN stressful at times.

Some days I would literally scratch my head pondering what the bloody hell to put on here!  My life is fairly mundane in the grand scheme of things.

How many times have ya seen me re-organise the pantry FFS?  Or move furniture?  Seriously.

You are gunna be spared all that soon.

I know it won't be the same for YOU, but it will be easier and safer for me.  

And that's what matters.  What's best for me, and the family.

Right.  Stew and I don't have any plans for today at all.  I might do those little jobs I didn't get to yesterday.

And he will probably watch some shoot 'em up, bang bang movie on Netflix.  He's loving them.

Bloody typical man.  Movies.  Or sport.

My dear Mum would have been 85 today. 💜💚💙

12.39 pm:  Stew and I went out to K Mart and found long, thin towels for $4 each!  Perfect for handtowels, so I don't have to chop up 'good' towels now.

Home and waiting for lunch...

ABOVE:  Family here for lunch...

ABOVE: And there's the cook today.  He's making Franks on Buns.  Yummy.

After lunch Bex and I went to Spotlight as they were having a Sale on wool/fabric etc.  Like they do EVERY DAY, like Briscoes!

Anyway, I was sure they wouldn't have any new fabric in, and I was right.

They are woefully low on patchwork fabrics.

I usually only get my backing fabric from Spotlight anyway, so it didn't really worry me.

I left with NOTHING.

Bex got a small amount of wool.

The rest of the afternoon went quickly, no more visitors.  Just Stew and I.

Dinner was Beef Stew and veges.  

Now... we are just watching the telly till bedtime.

Catch ya tomorrow.
