When it is hot:
- We have been having lovely weather in Victoria the past few days. A combination of rain and sunshine. Perfect.
- Pip organising a doll collection for Mirabel. And yes, I have already made a donation.
- Meeting Gemma Jones at her photo exhibition last week. She is a darling lady.
- Thinking about future craft projects... I want to make Dad a panda doll. Also a friend is about to do her final year 12 exams, so am going to prepare for her a treat — chocolate and a homemade 'something'.
- Seeing my garlic beginning to sprout after planting.
When it is not:
- The hurricane that has affected the Philipines. Never good news when natural disasters hit town.
- Poor baby Gwen having trouble sleeping during the day, possibly from teething.
- Getting a roast chicken for dinner and discovering that it is so small it'll only last one night.
- Sitting down on the toilet and then discovering someone hasn't replaced the toilet paper.
- Still waiting for all the other seeds that I have planted to sprout. It is a long wait.
