I'm baaaack!!!

Well here I am. A little worse for wear but back on board. It's been a busy few days; we've had a lot of visitors; that's been lovely.

The strange contraption behind the shed is going at the weekend if the weather holds. Its an attached shed to the normal shed and it will need a truck to lift it and cart it away. In its place is going a container to store whatever bibs and bobs one puts in a container. That's Mark's area but I'm pretty sure i'll be snaffling a little corner of it. We have plotted the gardens and Mark has gone off to get the last lot of tin sheeting. The wood we bought yesterday for the corners  is waiting patiently by the tank and tomorrow we build! We had a lovely outing to Bunnings yesterday (to O.S. visitors Bunnings is a large D.I.Y. store). I'm sure we've paid a few salaries there in the last few months. LOL. I love that place!

The chook yard move has been put on hold until the gardens are done. They have a new hen house and a huge pen so we felt (no -  Mark felt ) they could wait. I reluctantly agreed and acknowledged I am getting a little O.T.T. about the girls comfort. As Mark said  "They're only chooks." I did think that was just a little rude but he's allowed his opinion. After all  "he's only a man". lol.

Hey check out the crop circle in our back yard. We have 2 at the moment with a third one coming along. :) Its where the septic irrigates - looks affective and so green against the dry grass. Doesn't take too much heat to brown off the grass in Aus but on the flip side its doesn't take much rain to make green and gorgeous again.


Off to put the chicken on to roast. Baked dinner tonight and then a show to watch at 7.30. Quiet night in. Lunch out tomorrow but hopefully a lot of gardens made before then.
