Yeah, Muttley really enjoys it too! It's one of his favourite things. Right Muttley? Right?

Hope you're not too sore after your crash Coalie - you don't have the padding that I do so it would have jarred more...

I was fossicking about in my room today and found the quilt that I started last year. I know it's not a big vow given that many of you finish a quilt a week, but this year I'm going to sodding finish it! And it'll look fabulous.

Oh dear Holly, your poor sister, she wins though, does your sister know that she has won.
Drommy sorry maybe next time you win.

We are hooooome! Poor drommy! That's not funny, falling at your age! I only hope your butt will not be sore in the morning. Wouldn't it be awful if your glass slipper wouldn't fit, you couldn't go to work, you would have to stay home and watch DVDs all day, you would have to cuddle cats and eat chocolate to make you feel better. Oh no...that would be dreadful! Good luck drommy...

Don't tempt me mum! That sounds just lovely!

It is indeed the batik quilt, and as soon as i saw it i fell in love again...it probably won't even take that long! I've just got to book in that time. This year i'm going to reclaim something that looks a bit like a life! With hobbies and everything!

Is stinking hot here again...and the cloud is acting like a blanket and keeping the stifle in. The air is thick and sticky...just awful. But am I complaining? No way Jose! At least we are getting the summer that eluded us last year so I will lap it up. Too hot to sew though...have been reading instead. I have a little hand stitching to finish too so might just do that.
Cold drinks are here for all. The ice maker in the fridge is working over time!

jumbobon - 2013-01-14 15:30:00
39277

cold zero for me jumbo
not to hot here today although the temp says 27 but there is no humidity stiffling us so that makes all the difference eh.
Hope it cools down for you soon too.
Whats for dinner tonite. pies peas and spuds here.

Evening all, still muggy but dull in Hawkes Bay. Worked this avo and colleague back is still not better so working tomorrow morning as well. Which is well and great for the money but I have work at home too, so I will be working night shifts I think.

Evening all
We have had some nice cool weather here today too !!
Skippie you sound very busy if you need to do nightshifts too in your sewing room
Nice to hear you have a great holiday judy..
I have had an eventfull day, firstly with a nice looking plumber lol...I know what ur thinking and i wish it were true, but the water pressure in my shower disappeared and when he pulled the mixer apart he found a heap of dead bees, its quite common appearently. The bees come in thru vents in your roof !!
secondly i had to child mind today and it was quite dark when i left here so turned lights on then i forgot to turn off so yes i had another flat battery !!...lucky my bro had jumper leads..
So no sewing done today but thats ok plenty of time tomorrow..
lovely cushion grizz nothing wrong with that..

Oh no skippie...what a pain! Don't you get to put your foot in it tomorrow as well...or is that on Wednesday?
Nice cushion grizz. I agree about zips...they seem scary but actually are not eh?
Cooler here tonight thank goodness but it seems as though we are going to miss the rain, dammit. My tank will never fill at this rate. Did I show you a picture of the water tank I got for Christmas? We have a $5 limit but sil used recycled stuff from the shed and made it for me and I love it.

jumbobon - 2013-01-14 21:11:00

Grizz love the cushion :) I don't think ive ever put a zip in anything.

Okay...if this has worked it is a photo of the tank. Not in a green t shirt you understand...but the legs are quite similar actually! A N D there is a glimpse through the window of my shed! No apologies for the face. I just have no choice but to wear it!

Thanks Dilli. Did you wet the bed? Talk about up early...
It feels cooler here today so it might be good to get out to my shed. It is a smallish shed and as soon as the iron goes on it heats up. It's just been too hot out there the last few days...today might be just right.
Have a good one!
