I has been awhile

I know it has been awhile since the last post............things have been happening the last few weeks/ months

I have been sorting, cleaning,storing every single item in our home.............I did not realise how much I have collected and stored over the last 28 years.DH and myself have for the last 6 weeks been living with DH parents( my in laws) and will be there for the next 6 months while the new home is being built.
We have a massive combined Demolish and garage sale several weeks ago with close to ....lost count really of how many where there on the day.
It was amazing everything has gone ....... the past 2 weekends together with DH and the in laws we have been so busy cleaning up the site . Ready for the demolishing contractor to arrive
and guess what he arrived on Monday 24th August and I am now the proud owner of a block of sandl............
Hopefully by early September the nice pile of sand will turn into a house pad ??????????
This weekend will be the first weekend in the last 4 months ....I will only have to think about the washing ironing and finally some needlework.

Unfortunately one of the things I have had to sacrifice apart from my sewing machine ...........is regular facility to post and show photos of the progress............. I am regularly thinking of all my fellow blog mates.............so if you had not heard or had an comment recently from me beleive me when I say my thoughts have been with you all ( see no photos)

Hey Marcia,
I hope that the worst part is over for you and that you can look forward to having a beautiful new home in a few months.
I am sure you will be busy choosing the flooring and countertops and fixtures and where things will go... It must be a bit mind boggling.
I also hope you will get a chance to do some needlework- I know how much enjoyment you get from making things.

Thinking of you and sending you our best wishes for a Happy Renovation.

Warmest regards,
Anna

Happy Birthday!! Hope you have a lovely birthday today! I know you might not get this message today though! I only got your fabric posted yesterday... I'm so sorry. So hopefully it won't take too long to find you. It was ready to go last week and I forgot to take it to QLD and post it when we went away. Hope you've received some lovely fabrics!! Take care, Maree.
