It's been a while..

The sun is

new each day.

-Heraclitus.

Oops, this week just slipped by while I wasn't looking! As a matter

of fact I am glad this week is over as a couple of

not nice things happened. But each day

is a new day and I look forward not backwards.

There has been a fair bit of rain happening and I'm glad for our farmers that the

rain is here. It has been great weather for burning the fire wood...it's nice

and toasty in our little cottage. Great knitting weather too! This is what I've been

up to.....

.I decided to make myself a scarf out of this wool that Heather gave me. It is so soft and nice to knit with, I was sad to come to the end of the project, so I started knitting something else straightaway.

I was snippy with myself when I didn't work out the

amount of wool needed for this cute little short sleeved cardigan

I started to knit...

Once I got this fair I looked at the remaing wool and knew there would not be

enough. I don't ususally make that blunder but I did

this time. So this is where I stopped with it.

I will dig through my stash in a quest to find the right

amount of wool in a nice colour and make this

cardigan. It is cute.

As I was annoyed with the blunder I thought to myself.....well why not start knitting for

Guardian Angel, that will start soon, may as well get a head start on it.

I don't know where in the world the clothes will go yet this year

but last year the clothes stayed in Australia to help the people who lost

everything in the bushfires in the east of Australia.

Today I slept in until 8am!!! I'm a 5am - 5.30am girl, so 8am was a big sleepin for me.

I fed the chooks and guinea pig, had breaky, did the dishes and then

Cory and I went on a venture to the shops. The boys just love On The Buses TV series

and had a look around for any of those DVD's..unsuccessful but will keep looking.

Cruised around, Cory is checking out the price of an I-touch and then we

went food shopping. It is best I never turn my back on the trolley

or let Cory take control of it, as somehow some other food

finds its way into the trolley.

Cory's friend Corey has come over for a sleepover, so that gave me some time to sew.

Now there is not pattern to this, I just made six petals and a centre to fit and cut out

foam and put it inside. The pieces aren't sewn together yet, as I have to top stitch the petals

and the centre piece and then join it all together.

I thought a bright and big flower for the library would like nice hanging from the wall.

When I finish it I will take a photo of it in the library to show you how it looks.

I am saying some prayers for Heather as her hubby is not too well. I will beam the prayers her way

and hope the best for Bob.

I'm thinking that some bodies will be starting to get hungry so I better get on with things.

Hope you have a lovely weekend and chat with you soon.

Kind regards, Anita.
