It's a girl!!!

I know. I've been missing again.  Sorry.  There's been a lot happening and I've been keeping a secret.  We have a new member in our family.  Take a look....

Introducing.....   Dusty

Isn't she precious?  She is eight weeks old, a purebred Australian Kelpie.  We've taught her to 'sit' already, and after a few sleep deprived nights when we first brought her home, she has settled happily and we don't hear a peep out of her all night.  We love love love her.  It's so nice to have a dog in my life again.  As any dog owners know, a lot of extra work, but worth every minute, especially when you arrive home to a wagging tail!

We are very slowly getting her used to the chooks.  They are still bigger than her, but not for long.  Dusty is growing like a weed.  The other day she got a little too close to Sophia (biggest chook) and Sophia had a defensive peck and flap of her wings at her.  Poor little pup got such a fright and backed off.  I'm sure they'll all be hanging out in the sunshine together before we know it.

The Ekka is on here currently, so am looking forward to the public holiday on Wednesday this week.  We have just acquired two fabulous old squatters chairs, via Gumtree, and Ebay.  So comfortable.  Can't you picture me in my squatters chair, glass of wine, a good book, and my kelpie by my side. 

Have a great week ahead.

Best friends and Janecreative!

Hi friends

I hope you are enjoying the long weekend as much as I am.  Yesterday I spent the day with my bestie from high school.  What a great day and so special that 'after all these years' we still have so much in common.  Love you special friend!  You mean the world to me.

And, since today has been an indoors kind of day here, I have finished one of my other canvases.  What do you think?  Yes, it's another one of the Crispin Korschen cards with my added extras to adorn one of the walls of our home.

Enjoy what's left of this brilliant long weekend lovely ones.

Take a moment...

Hello, hope you have a wonderful day.  I love this quote, I have it on the wall in front of my computer.

It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
