well i wrote out a huge post and it hasnt arrived...blowed if i know why so now this is a check blog post:(

hello fellow bloggers, i am back. Not alot has been happening in my world by way of news although we have been very busy.

As you may or not know, we own a fruit property and we grow fruit such as apricots, peaches, nectarines, pears, apples, oranges, tangellos, washington navels, lemons, sultanas and cherries.
At this point in time our apricot cutting and drying has finished and we have just finished cutting the last of our peaches last night, at about 8.15pm.

We are waiting now for the sultanas and pears to ripen and they are our next two crops. Hopefully by the time we have completed these it will be time for us to leave for our Queensland holiday ..yay!!! We are hitting all the theme parks and are travelling by plane with friends.

My plan also is to hit some scrap shops..we will be staying near runaway bay.....am i right in guessing that Addicted to Scrap is somewhere nearby?? Id love any other ideas if you care to share with me:)

I managed to get to the library last night before going to *the block* this is what we call our property...LOL and i managed to get a few books, ive not found a good one for ages anyway it was *False Impressions* by Jeffrey Archer and i totally was addicted from the first page,,,hence my 12.30am bedtime last nightLOL

There is nothing planned for tonight, DH is at *the block* and the kids and i are just vegging here as it is ssssssssssssoooooooooooooohot!!!! There were whispers it was to reach 44 and 46 degrees by sunday.....but going by earlier weather reports it looks like 41 is the go for Sat..urgh...i have to work and then high 30's after that so it is kind of a relief.....

well im guessing im going to go and check out some awesome talent and see what else is happening in cyber world......maybe i will have something more exciting to tell you next session:)

stay cool have fun live life to the full.....

it is officially hot here today the mercury is about 38 degrees and the kids have been in the paddle pool all afternoon, they are having a blast!

I have been travelling down memory lane these last two days, i decided to get all my photos out of my albums and sort them chronologically and then scan and scrap the special ones for albums for my two babes and then i am thinking i may even do our wedding album. And maybe a house one,,,,possibilities are endless...wish me luck hahaha

The albums are those sticky ones and some of the pages have ruined some of the pics so i want to get them out asap. I will however recycle the old spiral bound ones with the slip in pockets and use them to put the pics back into when they are done. Im hoping these are *better* than the old gluey ones anyway and i shall be definate on dates and maybe use an album for one or two sujects...time will tell

I cannot believe how many pics i have and you certainly change your priorities when the kids come along,,,lol alot of the earlier (pre 1993) pics are of our house and garden and pets LOL now alot are of the kids and all the renos we have done on our home in the last 7 years.

Also a blowout was the pics of my sewing room and DH darkroom we built under the main room of our shed which is now my scrapping room and 6 years later it still is not finished *gulp*

SO that is definatley a project to be completed. When? Idont know as we are currently in our BUSY time of year, we grow fruit and we have finished drying our apricots, but next up are our peaches then our sultanas then our pears this will be done by oh,,, april im guessing then the 1st of may we are flying from Adelaide to Coolangatta for a week in QLD YAY!!!!!!!!!

We so cant wait, i am itching to go to all these amazing scrap shops and who knows maybe i will meet some of you awesome girls who inspire me so much LOL seroiusly that would be so cool. We are also hitting the theme parks (of course) .

Anyway im going to pop off for now (not rudely) and go and do some more sorting or something, i know we have to go and pick the peaches when it cools down. I dont mind it, the heat takes a bit to get used to but i really enjoy the time to chat to DH about different stuff.

cya love charxxx

hmm well that seemed to work okay for the moment.

Im hoping everyone has been keeping well and cool lately.
We have had a busy few days and some late nights that have caught up with us...i can get cranky when im tired lol.

DH and i had a huge discussion last night, i have been wandering aimlessly thru my life lately not really happy with my job or my life but not knowing how to change any of it. It has made recently for quite a depressed girl although i have been alot better lately..we had a chat about our goals and how we feel that our goals are not the same..hmmm no shit sherlock LOL anyway having this chat has made me feel better and i am looking forward to moving on in my life.....

You girls here on the web have made me some inspired that i am going to take just one day at a time and grasp it with both hands and to be very grateful for what i have rather than what i want........even if no one reads this it makes me feel better just getting it out.

I did some journalling the other day and quite amazed myself with my ramblings...god knows what a psychologist would make of me LOL
