Gratitude.

I feel so incredibly blessed and grateful for al my family and freinds. Yesterday's working bee went really well. So much got done that would have taken Peace and I months to get through.
We painted the whole house, made a new garden, mowed the whole block...It was wonderful.
Then we shared a meal an sat around a fire. Rain and her cousin put on a show for us and then we all had a fire twirl.
Thankyou everyone!

Rain and busy bees...

The rain falling last night

I love this rain we're having. It's beautiful, it's soaking into the soil, it's cleansing the Earth, the sky, my soul. The plants are thriving, the dam is overflowing, the tank almost full.

But I do hope it lets up by the weekend. This Saturday we are planning a little working bee.

With the promise of food and booze (lemonade and juice for the non-drinkers) we have lured some of our nearest and dearest to put in a day of hard graft for us. Well probably not so hard...

We are hoping to get some gardens mulched and to finish painting the house after all these months. Peace keeps coming up with more possible jobs for the list but I've reminded him that the working bee only goes for a day not a week!

The list of jobs to do on the property and house is endless. It seems that as soon as we complete one job another five have been added to the bottom of the list. So we decided that what we'd really like for xmas is some help around the place.
So I'll be busy tomorrow and Friday prefaring my post-working bee feast (which will include something made out of Zucchini) and scrubbing the house clean for painting.




And for hippymummy, a Zucchini, albeit a hail damaged one!
