Ok in my head there is a tune that goes with that title, but the essense is - ITS SCHOOL HOLIDAYS!!! Woo hoo!!
Lazy days, gardening, walks, swims at the local pool, movies, the beach, coffees with dear friends!!
I'm ridiculously excited about having the time to re-build our family rhythm that has been so badly missing this last two months among the chaos of buying selling/moving/bush fires.

Max the cat is clearly excited too.....
The first thing? Get the front two rooms finished over the weekend. We are going a huge push over the next few days to get the master bedroom and the lounge almost finished by then end of the weekend. Then we will bring in our furniture, move our family to the master bedroom and get this cottage set up into a slightly more functional manner. Mostly excitingly I get to set up my sewing room. Priorities here people, priorities!
The next step will be to focus on our diet, to whip that back into shape. Moving, and renovating has not been good for my cooking rhythms.....My baking tins are somewhere in the shed and once we begin to unpack more then the bare essentials that we have now I'm hoping to uncover them. I very nearly bought new tins but I restrained myself....I have perfectly good baking tins stashed in the black hole that is the shed. (Moving fail right here - take note!)
Anyway I'm off to make myself another cuppa tea, whack some washing on to hang before the day heats up and check the animals water. Our rooster's days are numbered.....we have had him from a baby and he made the grave decision to fully and relentlessly attack me and chase me across the yard as I was quietly feeding him and the girls. I screamed like a little girl and ran for my life!! My thongs were laying flung across the yard along with their food bucket and my legs ended up all scratched up from stacking it in spectacular style as he CONTINUED to attack me!!!!... He was crowing proudly with his success as I limped inside but I know who wins this one....Needless to say chicken soup is on the menu this weekend. If only I can find my slow cooker....hmm....
I wish you all a wonderful Friday and look forward to sharing lots of photos of the completed two rooms early next week!
Much love,
