woohoo.............

Things sure were feeling soooooooo low last post...............It was the day with the most rain forecast and we got nothing.............I really thought we were done.............
I thank you sooooooooooooooo much for the beautiful comments you left..........I think all your good wishes and hopes finally worked some magic............

The change of my feelings came from a few things...............
I sold the steers for better money then I was hoping......
No massive prices that they keep talking about once this drought breaks but certainly better then the last lot I sold.........and better then I thought the market may have been................

even the poddies sold ok...........

Better still my Secret Santa Christmas Swap parcel turned up..............and tucked inside my SSCS parcel I was allowed to open straight way

now this angel is no ordinary angel.............

it's all the way from Germany and she does have special powers.............

OMG she sure did bring the rain..............

she is forever going to be such a special angel...............

We'd had a few showers thiru the week..............nothing to really do anything much...............
BUT OMG the clouds just burst open and dumped 29mls on us.........
it was so heavy at times.................

there was water running around the house everywhere............

it's been so long since water ran around like this..............

So yesterday I was distracted with muddy paddocks...............I got my new gumboots out that I was feeling I would throw out perished with no use.............
and off  I went on the bike........boy wonder on another bike.........

My house dam got a nice top up..............

Further up the paddock revealed not so much rain.............but still wet..............
we still have some dams that have nothing much in them...............only what runs in from the edges.............

I found Curly Pop and had a great cuddle with her...........

I found this little black bundle who belongs to another Mum........I gave it a pat and checked it's a little girl before she hopped up and ran away to Mum...........
Look at that green shooting.............

I found this gorgeous flower..........I don't find them too often but I know where a few of the trees are and I keep an eye out.......this was a new one to me that I had not seen before.............they aren't something I will pick and they are covered in ants when flowering but stunning.........I have to stand up on the 4 wheeler to see them well.............

the ants were super busy building up their nests.........

I found this lovely plant flowering in the garden..............

I really was splattered with mud..............I didn't care one bit.........I was a complete muddy mess and straight into the shower......I'd had heaps of fun............

Another storm brewing...........we got the edge of this one...........not heaps but a another shower.........keeping things wet............
It all came a couple of days late for the steers but when it is just storms you are either under it or your not........very heart breaking when your desperate and not getting it......
thank goodness my blue angel arrived and brought me some rain.........and thank you my friends for your support......
I won't be feeding cows and sheep for christmas this year..........yippee..........
lets see if we get another storm this arvo......little storm cells are popping up everywhere again......

Now if someone could work some magic on my house phone that has been playing up for nearly 3 weeks now and Telstra are still yet to FIX it............2 techies have tried.........

Catch you later
