Feeling hot hot hot

29 degrees on Saturday

36 degrees C on Sunday so we packed up the girlie's and headed for the beach, unfortunately DH neglected to tell me it was a 15.8km sand track that had me hanging on tightly with my eyes clenched shut.

We have now decided that I need to attend a 4 wheel drive toughening up the passenger course, does any one know of any???

The beach was gorgeous, we saw 3 dolphins, collected shells, ate a picnic lunch, read a book, fished and relaxed. Our drive back out was interesting and I kept my eyes open the WHOLE way lol.

I have some photo's to come.

My day off today :) I have a date with the vacuum cleaner and the washing machine...........

I'd rather be sewing.

Hoping to get my stitchers' angel gift into the post this afternoon fingers crossed.

Have a great day :)

Ta Da its 100% finished and its night number 3 with it on the bed.

the quilting lady did the BEST job on this quilt, I absolutely LOVE it.

The leaves have been quilted into EVERY white block

I love this quilt :)

there are more pics somewhere bu its way past my bedtime so I'll save them for another time.

Motivation

is something I am lacking today.

I need to have a shower & get dressed tick

I need to load the dishwasher and the washing machine tick

I need to call into the hardware shop for some clothesline cord aka 5mm rope tick

I need to get off the computer tick

I need to get to work tick

but

the house is so quiet and still with just the fridge humming away, the sound of birds outside and a slight breeze, it is overcast though. The girlies are at school, dh is at work, the kitty's are sleeping that I want to stay home

maybe tomorrow instead

additional photos will be added this afternoon WST currenty doing :)

Have a great day
