WHAT DID YOU THINK?

 Yesterday I blogged with NO WORDS.

What did you think of it?

Yaa or Nah?

I liked it.  But wouldn't do it all the time.  I have far too much to say usually.  😂😊😉

I'm relieved to have all the Christmas decorations and tree done, it was a big job.

Now that it's all done I love it.  

I picked out first cherry tomatoes yesterday, one had been pecked by a friggin bird, so obviously ready to come inside.  There's also 4 lettuces ready, so we better eat them this week.

Today I'm going out to get more baby lettuce plants.  And I'm sure to find something else I want.

It's very enjoyable NOT sewing every day.  I didn't think I'd know what to do with myself, but so far I'm managing just fine.

Stew and I went shopping for a new tree topper yesterday with no luck.  Seriously, the dedicated Christmas shop in town had NOTHING for the top of a tree except bows or horrendous angels.

Ikkk to both.  So I might wander around the Base and see what I can find.  

I'd love to find either a beautiful white star or a small white Santa.  

And that's me for now... catch ya later.

11.20 am:   Well, a successful morning out and about today.

In the blistering sunshine.  Not a sign of rain today.  So damn typical.

BUT WAIT... rain is coming tomorrow.

ABOVE:  I got a star for the tree.

But on getting it home I realise it's far too big and heavy, so it will just have to go somewhere else.  Maybe we just make do with the small one we already have?  It's not perfect, but will have to do I think.

Lettuce plants... will get planted this evening.

ABOVE:  Remington has come to stay.  He's a lovely addition to the Christmas Friends.

Nearly lunchtime and I'm starving. 

5.10 pm:  I've spent the afternoon pottering in the sewing room.

I got an order for a UCKI PLANT for a friend down in Wellington, and got it posted off to her by 4pm. 

After that the girls and I had a quick visit with Bex and the boys, and just got home again.

Dinner for Stew this evening will be chicken casserole and veges.

It's stinking hot and muggy outside. The girls are panting like crazy.  They get a summer groom in 8 days, it can't come quick enough.

Steve, Bex and the boys came over after dinner.  Steve and the boys had a swim.

They turned a bit blue!  The water is still damn cold as far as I'm concerned.

Once they left we just chilled out watching the TV.

Catch ya tomorrow.
