A new day arrives.....

It looks like its going to be a lovely day..Glenn took these photos cause I was still in bed with my blanket on 3..You would never see me up this early unless I'm going shopping. Glenn calls this his peace time, ( cause I'm still in bed,,I bet ) he gets up this early feeds all the animals then him, makes coffee than comes and gets me.
looking out of my kitchen window at the sun popping her head above the mountains.
Almost up.The colours changed every minute,untill the sun is up.
theres an old saying that goes like.
Red sky at night-- farmers delight, Red sky in the morning--farmer take warning.

but no rain just cold winds blowing right through you..

goodnight luv ya Glenda

Here are some items that I have painted and I took them with my new camera..This is my garden Angel with her harvest of goodies. My farm I painted in which I always wanted to live,,well my farm house is not quiet like this one but the outhouse is and instead of cattle we have pigs..

My Pickett fence I painted,the frame is an old kitchen cupboard door that someone throw away. My beautiful red barn I painted.
Happy faces,Me,,Deb,,Ash,,Bre and Casey.I think they are so cute.
This is my first Goddess Doll I made for a swap from swap-bot..She has stacks of beads sewn on her.I hope the lady likes it when I send it to her..
I made and painted this for my old kitchen it was pink but I'm going to paint my kitchen blue.
My vegie collection.This is one of the items I use to teach before I came here.
This is my fruit bowl that I use to teach as well,I was teaching for about 10 years before we came here to live.
My cows- don't you just love them.Daisy and her baby,,,I painted this to.One of my fav

Hi everyone,I just got a new camera so I thought I would start adding photos again.Here is my old style of my kitchen,Its all clean waiting on builders to come and fix it.My table use to fit here. This is the bench that I want to get rid off,I think it belongs over against the window.
Now it is starting to look like I want,I could never understand why someone would stick a bench im the middle of a big kitchen.
Now its looking better you can see the extra room all ready
WOW look at it now all most all finished and how much room is there like HEAPS.It needs a good paint now and I was thinking a cool country blue to go with the wood grain cupboards,,mind you if I had my way I would kill the terracotta tiles for blue tiles..I have heaps of room and now we can sit at our table which is on the opposite side to the cupboards.
This is my once beautiful stove but it cant on fire and burnt and wooden stop,it melted all the knobs and being computerized it couldn't be fixed

Here is my new stove not as fancy as my old one but it is old fashion and has know not computer buttons,,,just turn it on and away we go.
Same kind of top but not as special as the last one.One most important thing the fire started and stopped at the stove and didn't burn any of my kitchen..Someone was watching over us that night.If it wasn't for my 2 little dogs waking us up when they smelt smoke who knows what would of happened.

I'm hoping that my computer will be all right now,I had a bug in it and it cost me $160 to get it fixed thats where I couldn't post or email and at one stage I couldn't get the internet so for 5 days I had no pc to play on.In a way it was good cause I got to do some swaps and some crafts.
good night love yas Glenda

I have been TAG by my friend Dolly so here goes...
5 Things about me you didn't know.....
1== What was I doing 10 years ago=
ok We found out that Glenn had MS and spent months in and out of the hospital, We were making and selling crafts at all the big Craft shows and I almost died from a Gore stone that desided t ae a trip around my insides and got stuck in my bile duct which turned my yellow and started to shut down my system,after 1 month in hospital s aloud to come home.Not a good year for us.
2== 5 things on my "TO DO " List.
Paint my kitchen, spend more time crafting,find my pig Rosey a boyfriend, tidy my craft spots which are everywhere-but my craft is clean, make fences for new lambs.
3== Snacks I enjoy.
love cakes and anything with cream, popcorn, oysters and prawns, salty foods, homemade bread with real butter.yummy.
4== Things I would do if I were a Millionaire..
Buy an Orphanage for kids that need a home, buy my family a house each, give some to Charity, buy me a '57 2 door blue and white Chev convertible from the USA and take a trip down the mighty Mississippi river in a paddle boat and give some to all my friends and the homeless.
5== Five places I have lived.
I have only lived in Australia but have lived in Qld,,NSW and WA. Both in the city and the country.
Now I would like to TAG some blog friends like Julles Shannon Coll Jessi hope you have fun reading abit about me.

Its been a difficult week,Firstly my computer broke down and it had to go away for 2 days but I couldn't use the Internet for 5 days and I just bought myself a flat screen and its so big.This was my birthday gift to me..Hubby is having a MS attack and cannot walk real good so I have been helping him get around and now my back is killing me,I'm hoping this attack wont last too long other wise he will have to go to hospital and be pumped fill of steroids..This has happened a few times and the steroids make hin cranky and he cant sleep so then they give him sleeping pills and relaxing pills so then he doesn't know if he is Auther or Marther so to speak. Than he has to come off all of that and its not a happy time for either of us.
Some good news now our Rosey is looking for a boyfriend .Its nearly her time to be a mum and she is doing some funny things like the way she keeps rearranging her bed to make sure its just right. How cool will it be when she has littles ones..
Our chickens just had babies and they are so little and cute,I went a little to close for comfort the other day and she jumped on my head as a warning to get out.
Ok I think that will do so till next time be happy and enjoy.love ya s Glenda

My rain boots have come out of hiding since we had rain last week.Mud everywhere and dont I hate it.You stand to long and you start to sink and with black dirt it sticks to your shoes and by the time you have walked down the back and back again you have grown 10 foot tall.


I didn't paint these I bought them incase it rained and it did we got nearly 60 ml..Now everything is started to green up and Glenns wheat is lovely and green and growing..I might even start a garden again..If the heat doesn't kill everything the frost does so now we have buckets of water everyway we might be able to grow some flowers.
Look at Roesy how much has she grown,,she can have babies soon and I cant wait to have little grandpiggies running around everywhere.
I think I have my blog under controll now so I'm not touching anything anymore and hopefully I can post better too...
Good night,,,,love ya's Glenda

The Pasha storm which hit Newcastle a year ago this weekend was one of the biggest news story since the earthquake back in 1989.It is raining again in Newcastle and minor flooding has already started. At least this time there will be no Pasha riding the waves. Although I was not there that weekend all my family suffered at the hands of the storm.. Darrel had no power for a week,,Garys roof leak though onto Summars bed and trashed it,,Debra was safe but didn't get time to do food shopping and Coles at Wallsend was washed away and Ashley well she had the best time, she and her friend Ashley went to Glendale to see a movie and were trapped which meant she couldn't get out of the pictures so it was free coffees and movies all night untill a boat came and picked them so they could go home.The next day was so unreal houses and shops even towns were washed away.I have been in 3 country floods in Wee Waa and twice we lost everything like animals,trucks,cars,furniture but when you see a whole street like Wallsend under water it takes time for it to sink in.Even Warners Bay was hit hard with the high tide ending up on the road..
Lets keep fingers crossed that Newcastle and all its folk will be safe from too much water this weekend.

I love a good sunset

I have always love the sky and everything to do with it,,the clouds,, the sun,,the colours,,the stars.
It is such a beautiful thing to look at..I remember when I was little I always watched the weather report on TV and our weather man was Des Hart,he now lives in the Heavens that he once talked about.
These pictures were taken last week facing our home.It was such a beautiful sunset.
One more thing it is raining now,I can hear it on my roof...WOW rain boy it sounds great.Keep coming I dont mind spending a couple days inside cause its to wet to go outside.
Our Rosey doesn't like the rain,mind you she tips her water bath over to make mud but she doesn't like it hitting her on her head.
I have fix my blog but still having trouble with posting but I will get there at least now one can click onto things.
Thanks for taking the time to look and read,Now that we are back on track I can post more stuff..
Goodnight for now love Glenda.

Me and my man,We had only known each other for a couple of months and we decided it was time to get married.We had the big white wedding with all the trimmings,,sit down meals,speeches from different members of the family..Opening the gifts.Our Bridal dance was Ant Music by Adam Ant Glenns folks were not happy about our choose in music but it was a hit with the rest of us.It was a great night had by all.
my wedding party.Glenn,me,Robyn,Erol,Kim,Micheal,My sister Deb and Justin. Wow look at the dresses and the gloves..Glenn had to have a hair cut just for the day, his Mum wouldn't let him get married until he did.Mum got her wish but he has not had too many since.
Look at my beautiful girls,I remember paying $35 each for the dresses and the flowers were $8.The dresses had a little lightweight jacket incase it got too cold..
