Cards and lambs.....

Milly and Billy have grown heaps...... 
I think Milly is about 6 weeks and Billy 5 weeks.....
so good to have lots of green for them to munch away on.......
still giving them a little bit of milk.............
Milly kept knocking on the door with her foot.........she really wanted to come into the Chookshed...........
you realise they have grown heaps when this other baby walks past who is about 5 days old.............
Thankfully her Mum is with her.....sniffing her to make sure she is her baby...........
she is so tiny........one of twins..........
and I have some cards back in stock...........
I realised when sorting them I was missing some so good to have them back again..........
Hooked into some weeding today..........OMG the weeds are so out of control............
and my body is so sore for the bit i did.........
I have some milk thistles and marshmallow grass as tall as me.........
the chooks love it all........
Catch you later........

Loading....

Hmmmm....truck running late..... Just about to load 3 decks of sheep in the dark......
God I hope they run well.... Bodgy set-up trying to load in a place we don't normally load as it is to wet for a truck to go into our yards....  I was supposed to avoid the loading the truck part when I was out today.... Bugger.....
Had time to write this while they finished up the dodgy loading race..... Hhhmmmmm

Natures Journey update..........

so I have not finished yet but I have more then 1/2 the stems stitched down..........
decided I needed the leaves as I went along since they are under the stems 
so I spent today turning under the bits and cutting a few more bits I had not prepared...........
so everything is turned and pinned on ready to stitch........
the creatures will be tackled once all these bits are attached........
I am LOVING all the centres..........they are amazing...........
Check out the Stitch-a-long blog.........
you can see what the others have done......

Sorting......

my cards are a disorganised mess...............I keep them in some plastic boxes but not organised............
So i decided to pull them back out while I still had some scattered all over the table and sorted them property...........
This is maybe 1/2 of them.........
rough categories include - farm pics, succulents, Australian flowers, paddock flowers/trees, garden flowers, animals, sewing theme, sun rise/set, odd things............
So they are all over the sewing table and organised into their piles...........
now to put away...........
no kids no husband - sewing tomorrow.............
