Hello all!

The Ugly Sister and I walked up mt Kaukau today and did a charming wee loop walk to prepare for our Next Big Adventure. I have two days leave coming up (two whole days! Exciting!) and we've booked a DoC hut. We're going to climb mt matthews (weather permitting). And the rest of the time we're going to read books. Two or three nights without Novopay! Hurraaaaay!

Hope you're all well - take care Twi, thinking of you!, hope skippie's mil isn't too sore today, hope Coalie's daughter isn't too sore either, and hope the rest have ample stitching, coke zero and fabric to last the weekend! To jumbo battling the chainsnore - my sympathies! I had a nana nap this afternoon though and woke myself up because i thought i was falling...the kitty wasn't impressed!

Love,
Cinderella

The house looks good! It is excitipating that it is finally underway and Jim said on the news last night that there was going to be ten whole days with no rain and not much wind...in Wellington! Unbelievable. Take a walk up a mountain for fun? Hahahahaha ha....which side of the family does that come from drommy? A rogue gene I think! I think? That's funny too...

Ten whole days without rain or galeforce winds! It's all very strange. Weird and alien and stuff.

drommy - 2013-01-26 23:30:00

That's it! The aliens have pervaded the minds of our daughters causing a galactic reaction to climb mountains! Whew! And I thought it could have been in the genes.

And from me too as well also and. Is skippie still stitching? Is drommy still taken over by aliens? Is wee still thinking about John Boy? Is Dilli asleep yet? Is shell still counting posts in this thread? Is coalie still teasing skippie? Is twi stamping her feet about having a lady doctor and not a spunky hunk? Are the rest of you tucked up in bed? Holly...are you looking for the cat? B are you still playing with your foot? Now I'm scared that I have missed lots out...and it's late so I am going to bed. The Chainsnore seems to haver em oiled! Nigh night.

Hugs to you too coalie! We ARE a lovely bunch of coconuts! Some more nutty than otherers though...but be nice to them nutcases, okay?
Thanks for the cuppa which is soooo welcome. Uncle Gareth is going to be mad at Brooke. She caught her second bird yesterday. Poor little yellowhammer...but she was soooo proud. I honestly don't know how she manages it because she runs at them like a bull at a gate.
Ooh...it's nice to look out of clean bedroom windows...well doors actually. We have French doors leading to th outside decking...hang on...I'll send a picture!

I admire your ladies quick wit! I am always a few quips behind lol! So Jumbo, looks like you are having a bit of a problem with spell check again. What is getting intoned? Does it mean you are singing in bed as you take the photo hehehehehe!

Happy day all, I am back behind the sewing machine doing table runners and watching the kittens chase my iron cord

Good morning all, have been up a while. Takes this long to get breakfast over with, coffe time now. Yes I'd some stitching last night, got that feel good feeling that I achieved something.
Jumbo you have a view out of those windows, never saw it before, you must have cleaned the windows.
Drommy, happy walking with no Novopay, pls do some walking for me, I need the exercise.
Wee, whose wedding or you sewing for? Did I miss something.
Shell love to see your machine cover.
Better go and enjoy my coffee. Cheers

Noooo wee...not singing. It was meant to read into bed...but I missed a gap and this computer thinks it is clever enough to make up its own story! I have finished the cushion and it looks so good I might make some more. The cat loves it too, but then she thinks everything is for her.
Skippie...you have too seen through the windows...it was just an embellished view, that's all.
Midday already...what's on for lunch?

Ladies! You must go shopping for fabric in the US this weekend! Did you see that thread about US postage going up 40%. A flat rate envelope going up from $17.95 to $24 US!

Gosh Holly, HB is that brown too, restrictions on irrigation is starting soon. I will try to make a pic upstairs and post it.

skippie1 - 2013-01-27 15:17:00
39778

Yip! Similar colours to what is around here alright. We are irrigating...each paddock gets watered once each ten days or so...sil does all that. And don't talk to me about dust...it is everywhere. Not helped by the fact that I like to keep the doors open all the time!
Loooove the cat holly...I just can't work out how they manage to sleep so much. Have made two cushions...and Tabitha loves them although she has gone to her cool place behind the sofa this afternoon.
Got that picture yet skippie?

I had a nap this afternoon dammit. Now I won't sleep properly again tonight! Dilli...I need potions please. I'll bring one of the pigs. Don't be scared...they look scary but they are soft as kittens.
Oi skippie...where is the photo? Did you fall up the stairs? I hope not. There have been enough mishaps this weekend.
What's on the table for tea? Muttley and I had a late lunch and now we don't feel hungry. Maybe eggs laterer will fill the gap.

The table runners are totally boring, plain, white, narrow (10") and long (94") with absolutely no embellishing.
