"Me and My Rambles"

A section of my bookshelves was looking pretty, so I took its photo!

Give me an hour with a book and some tea and I’ll be happy all day.

You know how you put things off…and off. I first noticed a small hole in this sheet months ago! Well now it’s got so big I can put a pencil through it. Time to mend or tear it up for rags. Found a needle and thread sat for half an hour and now it lives another day. It’s not the neatest but I’m happy.

Found these on a recent trip to Hobart.

Just think happy and you smile.

Polishing my shoes is a job I enjoy. One of those mindless tasks that takes me away to a quiet place where I don’t need to think about anything. I hope this doesn’t happen here!

I used to make them for the girls when they were little. Pour into a icy pole mould, pop in a stick and Bob’s your uncle!

How many do you live by…..

Got to spend time in Hobart last week and visited the Farmers Market on Sunday. Amazing mushrooms and fresh vegetables and how’s the portable hand-washing thing! I’ve never seen one before and guessing it’s in response to covid. Brilliant idea!

Makes me smile whenever I look at it.

vivid sunsets, juicy mangoes, ice cream, taking a picnic somewhere shady, having bare arms and not wearing socks, homegrown tomatoes, early morning walks while the air is cool, having windows open, long days, blue skies, salads for dinner, iced water and summer rain.

I need to learn.
