A problem in the house...

As night draws near to an end, I find myself once again banished to the spare room to catch a decent nights sleep.

You see in this household there appears to be a little problem that rears it's (or his) ugly head as the summer nights get hotter and hotter. It comes in the form of some rather loud noises ommiting from his nose and mouth, which become more obvious in the deep of night, or even worse when it is holiday time and a sleep in would be a nice thing.

So off I go down to my little room in the back of the house, but wait what is that hanging on the door entering into what used to be fondly called our bedroom..... what is that I see swinging on the door.... would it be a door hanger..... I think it is, but what does it say. So I peer closer to see if I can read that fantastic work of art...Oh my god that is just priceless, who would have thought to put that wonderful piece of artwork on the door? Who Would have spent hours coming up with the idea, and then carrying it out, making it look just so fantastic? More to the point who would put it there without the cave monster seeing it?

A genius is what I think!!!

What the......

I think Ralf has decided I am mad - I mean I am not 21 anymore and I have now got roller blades! Wait for another week and I will have my way cool skaters helmet, flames up the side and all!!!! Ralf is worried I am going to break this old body!

Jade is not worried I am going to embarrass her - YET! I am sure within a year she will be embarrassed by me!!!

What is wrong...

Hell I just realised that I posted twice within one week!!!! Now it is three times!!!

Yay a Garden

A while coming I know, but it is here. We have done right down one length of the fence in new garden. We planted, we weed matted, Ralf concreted in garden edging, and he barked, all while on nightshift this week, so pleased it is finally done.

So this is looking down the line back towards the driveway.

Then this is looking back the other way, you can see we are still going around the corner, so will be continuing on with the garden edging, weed matting etc around there.

Then this one is showing you the plants - my mum wants to know what we are planting of course! So off the plant tag Mum this is a Escallonia "field's scarlet" which we had growing at our other house right along the back fence. So quick growing which is good.

And inbetween each of those plants we have these ones. Which are Leptospernum Coppersheen, not as fas a growning plant, but still look quiet nice.

We will have to be good with this one, trimming as we go, so that it does not be come a massive woody edge, but instead some nice shrubs.

Fabulous - one down!

Ralf is at golf today for the whole day, he had better win me another ham :-) Jade is going out soon for a sleepover, and I am just going to do not much at all!

I love bubbles!! I brought a bubble machine that pumps out squillions of bubbles at a time, it is fantastic. So then I decided to try and take some different photos of them, using the different settings on the camera. I have no idea what I was doing, but I love the way the light is caught on the bubbles, very cool!
Last weekend I went to play with Jo, which was great fun, I managed to do get three layouts done which is very much unheard of by me. This first layout would have to be my all time favourite layout at the moment, helps that the picture is a big favourite with me.

This next layout is very much a well overdue one. Of course it is when What Now came to Ohakea, a very cool weekend was had, Jade who never used to watch What Now very quickly became an avid fan of the program. Halloween! Did I tell you how it escalated from a wee bit of trick or treating with one friend, to two friends coming to stay the night, and the full noise. They all had a blast.

2 weeks and 2 days left before it is Xmas holidays. I am hanging out to have some time off, and do nothing. I always love Xmas time, but hate the last couple of weeks at work, as it seems to drag on, and then of course everyone gets so busy and stressed, so it is a bit of a mixture of loving it and hating it!

I have changed my cellphone ring tone to "Jingle Bell Rock" - fabulous! I am wearing a different pair of Xmas earrings to work every day! The Xmas tree is up, the presents are wrapped, we are just waiting! Roll on Xmas!

Oh yeah and then even more exciting, I brought the plane tickets for our trip to Australia next week, I can't wait!!
