the one... why I've been so quiet

I have been very quiet on the posts recently because I have been inundated with spam comments.

I've made a few changes to my settings in an attempt to put a stop to them.

I'll wait it out a few more days and hopefully be back posting very soon.

Thanks.

the one... with a little escape

I hit the highway recently and headed down with a friend to Coolongatta for a couple of nights.

Thanks to my lovely friend T for taking such beautiful photos.

The weather was perfect the entire weekend.

The plan was to walk, eat prawns, drink moscato, take nanna naps and get my toes into the ocean.

I'm happy to say I ticked all the boxes.

the one... getting to know the pick a little more

The pick and are are getting much better acquainted with having to remove a little more dirt from up the centre of the driveway to make room for the pebbles.

I had to take the dirt down another 5cm below the driveway which meant spending time with the pick.

I'll be honest it's not easy but it will be worth it in the end.

the one... with the shutters & awnings

After waiting 9 weeks the plantation shutters have been installed.

AND

The new window awnings have been put up.

I wanted to show you them both from the outside.

The window with the partially closed shutter faces the West so it's either partially shut or completely shut to block out that killer sun.

I'm in love them both.
