ITS TOOOOO HOT!!!

Today will be our 12th day in a row over 35degrees, this is insane! Super doopers for breakfast, lunch and dinner and copious amounts of water. We dont have an airconditioner in the new digs yet, just the electrical wiring hanging on the wall teasing the clappers out of me. Even though its been trying i have managed to get some things done, unpacked more of my sewing stash and was suprised to find over 30 doileys in random boxes. The doiley is an interesting item, they just seem to appear, similar to the coat hanger.....i dont really recall ever buying a coat hanger and as for the doileys they are just there. But a doiley is in a different league from a coat hanger. Words to describe a doiley would be: creative, retro, colorful, pretty. They take me back to the past when life was simple and easy. Mum always had doileys on the furniture, mine are in a box...doing nothing. So this year I wil use them. First on the doiley agenda the string bag.

Happy 2014

Things progressing slightly slower than i wanted it to but we're getting there, still quite a few boxes to unpack. The pain in my back is almost gone, although i can still only sleep on my back, cannot roll over lol. I hope you all had a safe and happy christmas, we did, but i can say im glad its all over...christmas is a very hectic time of year and extra so this year. For those of you who watch from 'afar' i would love to find out who you are and take a peek at your blog, so leave a link if you like. Have a great day!!

slowly but surely

what a week!

Thursday HOT over 40 degrees in the shade in a crazy rush to get the house finished and move in before Christmas....so what did i do? stood on a chair to reach something, the chair gave way and i fell flat on my back, winded myself and bruised my ribs.....STREUTH!! ....no sleep at all, too much pain...GREAT NOT!! 
Friday HOTTER!! 1pm snake found in the old house, so lucky the man was home, i only have to think of a snake and i dry wretch, so i wont be posting photos of the 6ft brownie....UGH!  1.05pm snake dead, 1.06 pm...decision made to EVACUATE the hippy farm and start moving furniture over to the mansion.  Pain and heat tolerance level is at zero. All i can do is watch the furniture being brought over to the mansion and make a pathetic effort to dust and tidy up..... my contribution today, well nil really.
Saturday HOT as sleep? impossible too hot and too sore
Sunday HOT again! dont really remember much else the days all seemed to merge lol
Cool change Monday what a relief!'Christmas day was wonderful spent with friends and pain starting to recede.......the new digs are fantastic all clean and dust free, after living in the old house, with things half packed, spiders and bugs its good to have some normality back...i feel like ive won the lotto.  Pics to come as soon as i find my camera. Hope you all had a fantastic Christmas
