Wow 6 years ago I tried something new...
this was the first picture on my blog....
Some things change -the tree is bigger.....
Some stay the same - still dry in the background..........
Who would have thought my life would have been so affected by blogging......
I have made some wonderful friends both online and in real life....friendships in so many different countries and so many parts of Australia.........
I have tried lots more sewing things - inspired by others.....or seeing something and wanting to do it too......
Thankyou for visiting and leaving comments.............
if we didn't have the interaction it would be SOOOOOO boring.......
If your reading this and not a blogger take the plunge and start blogging.......
it's not hard.....it's a whole new amazing world.........
it doesn't matter what I share.........it is my blog........so I write what I want here...
BUT......
What do you like to see..........what silly, random, crazy, odd post have you liked........or is it one of my more sensible ones...........actually not sure that is possible...........
.........take care til next time.....Chookyblue.........

PS Still can't believe i've been here for 6 years.....OMG......

I like to read posts about where you live and the things that go on there. I probably will never visit Australia or many of the other places where my blogging buddies live so its fun to read about them. Also, its fun to read about different lifestyles. I enjoyed the posts when you were out with the cattle.

Congratulations! Thanks for sharing with us your life and great information about your country! We live so far away, and yet so close because of this little windows called blogs!
I love spending a few minutes with you each day. Congratulations on your 6 years. I haven't been so good with my blog. I ran into technical difficulties with the computer and got discouraged. I need to get organized and see if I can figure out the problem and get back to blogging myself instead of just reading others' blogs.
Make it a great day. Carline
Yes ! it's a fabulous adventure !! Happy blog-anniversary and Thank you very much for everything you make to get more fun in blogland !!

Happy 6th! I found you through sidebars and Snappy Friends....I wish THAT were back again! I am grateful you allowed me into the Secret Santa Swap...that's such fun. And I love hearing about your life with the animals. I must have lived in Australia in another life because I'm drawn to it, your posts and photos warm me up.
Thanks for opening my world.
Just love hearing whatever you have to say...and love knowing you!

I got sent to your blog quite early in my blogging time, to learn some "how to's", and I think lots of others have too. I love reading any of your posts, love hearing about life on the land, and love your humour. Keep going.
I first got to know you through the Sal blog. I love to read about your quilting but also things that happen in your life, funny or sad. I feel I have gained a new friend. So congratulations on 6 years of blogging. Hugs....
Congratulations on your wonderful blog, so happy to have found you. Love reading all your activities and you have been so helpful to so many, now you are organising quilts that will bring much happiness. Well Done. Nana on the Farm

well done Chooky! Blogging is fantastic and sounds like you have made it so much for better for a lot of us. Thank you.
happy blog birthday to you....... doesn't time fly!
I enjoy it all...I find your life there fascinating (I'm in New England), your stories about family and friends are wonderful to read the work you do organizing the Secret Santa program is very generous. Thanks for everything.
Happy 6th Chooky. Thank you for all the effort you have put into making this such a great place to visit. I love your photos, most of l love the way you have bought us all together in some way, the SAL, the SSCS GDITC and the warm friendly country hospitality I have experienced twice now. I am passionate about the aussie bush but you take the best photos of it. I think the photo that made me laugh the most was the mud boy/ alien. The other that was special to me was the one we took together because of the effort you out into climbing that gum tree to show off our quilts. PS Love your stitching too.
It's amazing I think I have been reading you for nearly that long. The fact that we have met is testament that it is a wonderful past time. Looking forward to another 6 years.
Happy Bloggaversary!!
If it wasn't for our blogs we would have never met......
Thank you so much for your friendship xx
Happy days Chooky I hope all is well with you and you enjoy many more blogaversariesXX

Well Done Chooky on your blogging years. Your blog is a friendly, interesting and inspiring place to visit, not to mention entertaining too... I love it. x
Hi Chooky, It's been ages since I've stopped in with a comment, but wanted you to know that I still read your posts. I don't comment as much anymore, I don't know if very many bloggers do, time seems to slip by, and then a lot of blogs have word verif., but anyway, wanted to pop in today and just say a Sunday morning (here) hello to you. Connie
I met wonderful new friend by blogging. Every year I try to fly to my friend I met through blogging in Seattle. And met wonderful quilters over there as well. My new friend Emma I met in september she lives in the same town as I'm, but was new and looking for quilters. We much fun now. It's amazing how life can change.
Yay for six years! I myself love to blog and am so happy to have met such lovely people from all over the world. Blogging helps you meet those of like minds as well as to give you inspiration.
Congratulations on your blogging anniversary :)
