Pondering ...

It is the school holidays at the moment and we have already whisked through one week, it has gone so fast that I don't know where it went. Before we know it Term Four will be done and dusted and Christmas will be here.

Spring is definitely here with it's fluctuating weather, including strong winds and some occasional sunshine. While it is nice getting the washing dry in one day, it will be nice to see some warmer temperatures as summer approaches. I have tidied up the vegie garden beds and have sown some seeds which I am hoping to get planted before Labour weekend, the official planting time for Christmas eating! The wisteria and roses are looking and smelling lovely and the port wine magnolias are smelling particularly awesome.

Daylight saving started last weekend and that could be a contributing factor in terms of last week going so fast. I have to admit that we have slept in more than once in the past week and we seem to be having dinner later than usual but I am sure that we will get used to it and adjust. I am very grateful that it happened at the beginning of the holidays and not at the end.

I am going away for a few days with a couple of girlfriends for a girls sewing break next week and I am sooooo looking forward to it. For the last two days I have been thinking about what to take to work on. It isn't like I am spoilt for choice as there are a few UFO's lurking around this house, however I still have one more day to decide which ones to take. Even hubby has asked what I am going to work on while I am away.

I could take the Orca Bay - as that could now be classed as a UFO, there is the new BOM that I am slowly chipping away at. There are a few other older UFO's to choose from as well, so maybe a little more thought is needed between now and Monday morning. Maybe a quick dig around in the sewing room tomorrow might help jog the sluggish memory, however it could be scary as to what I find.

So I am still pondering .... 
Check back soon to see what I took and the progress that I make. I will also get some photos of our awesome Northland for you.

Until then ... happy stitching everyone
