This was just going to be a quick post before I headed off to the dairy for the afternoon milking. I had it all ready to go and then …you guessed it ….computer froze. So I did the usual – turned it off and rebooted it. It reminds of the tv show on the ABC – "The IT Crowd". The guys answer to everyone’s computer problems is always "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"….lol…I digress. So now I’m back inside and it is after milking and it’s second time lucky. So here goes…….
Yesterday I had a visit from my Mum and my sister-in-law Andy. Mum bought me some of her lilac blooms…
They look (deep mauve/purple) and smell soooo good. (sorry about the photo - damn camera has no flash). I know that they won’t last very long as lilacs don’t really make good cut flowers, but I’m enjoying them while I can. I might have a go at planting one next year in the garden at the shop.
Hannah sat her year 12 English exam today (along with about 47,000 others) and was very nervous indeed. She is not very confident of doing well but with English out of the way she will have almost a week to revise for her Accounting one.
New in the shop this week : more cutting mats; templastic; and cones & reels of signature thread. Due in next week : some more chenille – chocolate, pink & green. There was a problem with the raspberry chenille so it won’t be available until January 2009. Linda :) Aarghhh.....just about to click on the publish button and it froze again.......the reset button certainly is getting a work out today.
Hi Linda, Your lilac blooms are beautiful and I too love their fragrance. I had problems with freezing when I was doing a post so maybe there was a problem with Typepad. What a shame there is a hold up on the raspberry chenille because it sounds very yummy indeed. Best Wishes Evonne xx
