I hope you’re all having a great weekend. I’ve been relaxing and enjoying my new computer that I won from Miscellaneous Mum, isn’t this the cutest laptop you’ve ever seen??
We’ve been wearing the kids out with lots of bubble play…
This is Missy 2 in a dress I recently made in advance for Spring. You might remember the fabric.
The odd thing is, it’s still supposed to be Winter here, but even after all the flooding we’ve had, today is playing out like the perfect Spring day.
Look at what lovely things I found blossoming ahead of time.
I’ll be buggered if I know what this tree is called, but it’s an Aussie native and so pretty.
Then these bulbs that have been something of a mystery, have blossomed into what I think look like daffodils? Well, they smell beautiful anyway.
My posting has been somewhat erratic of late, you’ll have to bear with me. I’ve had the flu, and it’s looking like I might have fibroids, so I’ve been forced into quite a lot of bed rest lately. But enough about me! How have you been spending your weekend?
Gorgeous dress you made!! And it’s a gumnut tree (type of eucalypt).

Thanks, Alison, Missy 2 loves this dress so much. And can you believe it? She’s got HAIR now! woohoo! I had a feeling it was some sort of gumnut, I just don’t know the proper name.

The tree is a Eucalyptus…and the flowers are narcissus (sp), which are part of the daffodil family.
Lovely, lovely little dress!

Oh, thanks so much, BoggyWoggy! The flowers reminded me of daffodils, even though they didn’t seem quite as yellow as the ones I’m used to seeing. I’ve been waiting since we’ve moved here to find out what the flowers will be, and now I know!

We cleaned out and reorganised the shed …. but mostly I have being moving around in a fog of congestion. I have a savage cold, and I feel very ordinary.
Is that a silver princess? It’s a very pretty gum tree.
I think it’s a pink flowering gum, which is a pretty good name! I always thought you were Australian.
Sorry about feeling rotten, we’re just coming through the colds and are feeling better this weekend, we did the finishing touches on a house we’re renting out. I hope you all feel better with the nicer weather, getting out in the sun always works wonders around here.

You were busy, Dani, I hope you feel better soon:)
I’m not sure, J:) I love the colours.
Thanks Deb! Yeah, I’m an Aussie, but I guess I let the team down on this one, didn’t I? lol. You sound like you had a busy one. I’m sure we’ll get better soon:)
Ooh! Pretty! prettier than mine! Congratulations again
Karen, I think it’s prettier than any laptop I’ve ever owned, LOL. Thanks so much for hosting the giveaway:)

Cool computer. Congrats on the win
I’m loving seeing the trees around here start to flower, it is such a vibrant time of the year. Although I could do without the wattle :aaaahchooo:
We spent our weekend unpacking boxes, shopping for new furniture for our new house – a couch at last ::happy dance::.
Get better soon.
Isn’t it the most adorable computer? We’re lucky, we don’t have wattle here, but at our last house we did, and I couldn’t see through the tears, lol
Glad your weekend was productive
