Hey there, I have finally gotten to this job…I’ve had it noted to do for a few days & I’m sitting here waiting for 12.30am to arrive & thought….oh I can do that blog award. So anyway………the wonderfully kind & generous Lynda gave me this award. THANKS Lynda

What I need to do with this blog award is to list 10 things that I like or that make me happy & I know I’m going to have trouble stopping at 10, but here goes
1. Family, my family is super special to me, I love my husband to bits & if it wasn’t for him I’d be lost. He helps me see perspective, (which is super important) & my kids, I love every little bit of them, (even the bad bits
2. Quiet………………ABSOLUTE BLISS!!!!!
3. Rain in the winter (makes farming a little easier too)
4. Green paddocks…..who doesn’t like to see things growing
5. Stamping & papercrafting (again, who doesn’t love these)
6. Reading, I love the fact that I rediscovered my love & thirst for reading…..you’ll often find me purched up somewhere with a book in hand
7. Cooking…………food is a big thing in this house as there is always someone calling in for morning tea, lunch or afternoon tea. I’m just super lucky I LOVE to cook!!!! & I have a wonderfully large kitchen to cook in
8. The seaside, to me means I am with my family & having some time out from routine……bliss
9.The smell of fresh turned dirt, the smell at seeding time on the farm is YUMMY!!!! lol I know it is a bit strange, but it is such a HUGE part of our life here on the farm, that it is again soemthing that really makes me happy
FINALLY….
10. Shopping, now who doesn’t love to shop, whether it be window shopping, craft shopping, power shopping or the true blue RETAIL THERAPY……I love it all
