It's been a while between drinks

Testing, testing, is anyone there?

We've been getting stuck into our landscaping of late, and this is what we've achieved...



Inside has been quite neglected, but now that outside is done (for now), I can renew my interior focus.  I was just discussing a friend today that we've spent tens of thousands of dollars on outside and that if I tried to spend the same amount inside, I'd a) probably be divorced; and, b) have money left over (if I wasn't divorced).  Funny how that works out, hey?!

I hope all is well with you!

There's a hole in our yard...

...Dear Liza, dear Liza.

Today, excavation started on our much awaited and longed-for swimming pool.  Thank goodness, too, as it has just started to rain!!

Early morning start

Thanks for all the words of support and encouragement on my last post.  My mum came over the next day and helped me sort out the Lounge Room, which gave me a much needed kick in the pants/morale boost.  I've also done a little more styling, but the photos I've taken just aren't telling the story I want them to.  I think the key is that we really need to sort some art for the walls.  That ain't gonna happen in a hurry, given the project above, though.

Having said all that, I continue to marvel at the beauty of the home we are creating.  I really, truly love so many elements of it and am so happy to be here.

I hope you're all well!
