After a relatively quiet New Years Eve (after leaving a venue because the band was so bad!), we woke up this morning to a little bundle at the end of our bed. Lulu was obviously missing Grace and came into us for company. She was so cute snuggled up and sound asleep.

At a visit to the farm at Thorpdale, we were graced with the presence of two huge wedge-tailed eagles. they were gliding around the paddock, one landing in the dead tree down the hill. Amazing birds!

What is summer without a barbeque? The weather is cool at the moment but I like it better than the heat. These were for last night's meal but we ended up at Thorpdale so they needed to be cooked tonight. Chorizo sausages and spicy Chicken drumsticks with green salad, followed by Plum Pudding, custard and brandy cream! Yum!

Our front garden is ablaze with colour and these Lobelia flowers are just glorious. The bright purple colours are stunning - it's a beautiful entrance to our home. We've had some lovely comments about our front yard.

Note to self: Wearing new shoes to work, without stockings (socks) is not a good idea! I bought these very comfy shoes, at 50% of what I was going to pay for them, to wear on warm days at work. by the afternoon my feet were burning and there were a couple of small blisters crippling me. Lesson learnt!

After the morning in training to use the work computer program, I met up with a group of our residents on the banks of the Yarra River while they had a BBQ lunch. It has been an amazing day - the river looked glorious and sitting in the shade was just perfect!

This is not a hairy monster but rather my pen container with a bright pink duster sitting in it. Rather cute don't you think! Nothing like having a collection of pens to choose from!
Well, Week One completed, 51 to go!
Till next week ...
