Its a lemon

 Moving house here to Ballarat, I finally got the location to plant a lemon tree.  I bought a dwarf lemon, so it won't grow too big and I can't reach the top.  Its in the front yard, near the tap, so its easy to water.  No lemons yep, but its only been there 12 months.  No rush :) 

Course complete

 I enjoyed the pattern drafting course and learnt many things.  I haven't put the learnings in to action as much as I would have liked, but I have made a few very lovely items.  My favourite being my woolen coat.

Volcano trip

 Back in winter 2015, we left cold old Melbourne for warmer climb.  We went to Vanuatu, Fiji and Hawaii.  Two of the three of these included live volanos.  Super happy with the trip, was exhausting, included many cocktails and many amazing sites. 

Long time, no update

So its been a massively long time since I did an update here, but recently I had cause to take a look at this and noticed that, even though I haven't actively been working on this for (omg) 13 years, I have actually completed more of these tasks.  So here come some update posts.

More chucking out of stuff

99. My year 12 formal dress. It's never going to fit again, I have no where to keep it.
100. My lamby when when I was a baby, it's torn and worn out.
101. my bag of socks that need darning, seriously I will never to it, I have gotten over it!

So even though this now counts this task as completed, now that I have started, I think will continue to chuck stuff out, because I seem to be doing so well at it!

Visiting

We visited Mum and Dad yesterday, which I think makes three times this year. I don't think I have visited three times every year, because of a little 'issue' at one stage there, but I have this year so good enough.

bored = chuck stuff out

As a result of this post, I have decided I need to through some stuff out. I have decided cloths look like an easy target so here goes

88. 5 pairs of pants (trousers for those of you that way inclined) to the op shop
89. 9 t-shirts, to the op shop
90. 3 shirts to the op shop
91. two hand bags, one to the bin, one to the op shop
92. one purse
93. one sun hat, it's bright orange, I am never going to wear it.
94. 4 shirts
95. 3 sandals, 2 bin, one op shop, bye guys, I'll miss two of you anyway! Especially the red ones Clara chewed when she was a puppy, they were great.
96. my old camera box and instructions, I only haven't had that camera for 2 years.
97. an empty Cointreau bottle, honestly, why do I keep this shit!
98. Do you recon Body Shop things go off? So do I and I've had the stuff I chucked out since 2002.

oooo Shiney

No Words I'm afraid :)

when will it come

This isn't even bloody published in the size I buy yet! (I can get it in trade paper back, but I hate that size) This sort of this is not helping me finish my list on time

And I'm back

I have been away in the UK for 6ish weeks so, as was fairly clear anyway, there is no way this will be finished in the next -4 days. I am going to try and finish is though, I'm not really concerned how long it takes. Our trip was great, you can read about it here.
