hmmm.......

Yesterday I was back at the cows.............it was a #*^%^&$%(^ day everything was going fine......till I went to leave........flat tyre.......so me and Fairy Girl ended up on the motor bikes all day at the cows...........NOT my plan...........to windy to stitch..........the grasses and wind was seriously driving my hayfever NUTS........
Not sure if I am going to make the SAL deadline for TTS............my eyes were so yuk last night I couldn't sew............
the grasses above are the worst for me.......barley grass and the little thin one at the top makes me want to scratch my eyes out...........lucky I had the eye drops with me...........anyway as i knew my day wasn't going to be fun I decided to snap some photos of the beautiful things I saw.......I couldn't stitch and you can only play angry birds for so long and I had read all the posts in google reader........
"r ap e flower"
Milk thistle
gum blossom
not sure this trees name but i'll try and get a better photo of the flowers today............
here is the tree.......very pretty
a new baby for the mob........
a stray sheep who thinks he is a cow now........
Have a great day...........thank goodness I have the car today........
....it's going to be very windy once again.......but hopefully tonight some rain............
Catch you later..............

Love the photos, so it wasn't all bad though. Good luck with your TTS. I'm up to making the binding but also not sure if I'll get there in time!

I would really love to live in your world. I don`t have allergies so I would be good...hope they clear up for you soon.
We used to drive by a farm that had a `cow horse` this horse was always with the `new cows`then one day no more we do miss him.

Hope that your hayfever is not so bad today, Chooky. Dreadful when your eyes are so puffed up that you can't see - no scratching of eyes either, so lucky you had your drops! Great photos though :)

Jenny said...

You have the gift of making every day into a something day-- Did you see that I turned my swap material into a something ?

But this is for you although I know you do get mad at times, but underneath these virtues shine through your blog.


"Humility is perpetual quietness of heart.
It is to have no trouble. It is never to be
fretted or vexed, or irritable,
to wonder at nothing that is done to me,
to feel nothing that is done against me.
It is to be at rest when nobody praises me,
and when I am blamed or despised,
it is to have a blessed home in myself
where I can go in and shut the door
and kneel to my Father in secret and be at peace,
as in a deep sea of calmness, when all around and about is seeming trouble."

Bleechh! Hayfever! I hate it! I love to be inside more than outside and that's the main reason. Hope you get some rain. We had some here in Melbourne today. Also some flash flooding (Melbourne just seems to do that every time it rains.)

Hope you get the TTS done. I'm getting closer. Might make it. Or it might not be finished till September 31st. (Planning to machine sew the binding here for sure, lol!

Thought of you when I heard the forecast for this week and hoped you would have some rain.
Good rain here around Melb but black black sky and thunder to go with it.
