Holiday Madness

You have no idea how happy I am that the holidays (Christmas/ new years) are almost over. They are so busy, hectic, expensive and stressful!
I was out buying Christmas gifts on Christmas eve, and wrapping presents until 1am!! I promise myself (Like I do every year lol) I will be more organised next year, and I mean it!!

We had a lovely Christmas day. We drove to my sisters house at Pyalong Victoria for Christmas lunch with my family. It was relaxing and the kids had a blast! Then Boxing day we had a BBQ with my partners mum and her hubby. That ended up being a pretty long day and I was glad when I got to crawl into bed at 11pm.
New years eve wont be very exciting. Hubby and DD1 have gone camping with friends. Myself and the other kids didn't go because its going to be 39 degrees for the next few days, YUCK!
So I'm spending New year on the couch watching movies under the air con, and I may even shout myself to a few Midori and lemonades :)

Now just to make it to the end of the school holidays!!

They're here !!

Its been a long impatient wait but finally

I HAVE CHICKENS!!!!


I'm so in love with my beautiful girls. They are Gold laced Wayandottes and are around 10ish weeks old.  No names for them yet as I haven't really had much time to sit and watch them think about it. (A friend need an emergency babysitter)

Aren't they gorgeous!! ♥♥♥

Quotes

I came across these two quotes today and they have really jumped out at me today, so just had to share.

Don't be a woman that needs a man ....
♥ Be a woman that a man needs ! ♥
 
 
Let your past ♥ MAKE YOU BETTER, ♥
not bitter.

Catch up post

Gosh I didn't realise it had been so long since I posted in here. The days just seem to be going by in such a blur!
I'm still in shock that December is here!

This past week has been hectic! First I had dramas with my chicken coop not arriving after weeks of waiting. Turned out it had been sitting in the local delivery depot because it had been damaged during transit. After lots of emails and me getting very annoyed I finally have a replacement and its all put together. Sadly I'm yet to get my chooks because I can't seem to find anyone local that sells anything other then Isa Browns :(

The end of last week was spent sewing like a mad woman, all day and almost all night for three days/nights. I was running in barley any sleep. Trying to get ready for my market stall. No idea what happened or where to time went, always seems to happen though!

Saturday came and when in a flash, and all those sleepless nights felt like they were for nothing. Not a lot of my stuff sold, which was a bit disappointing but it now means I have lots for my online store.

I'm holding a stocking tomorrow (Wednesday) night.

Here are a few pics of my stall at the market and few things you will see online tomorrow night.
