What's New

Another week has gone by, the month of July is just flying by before me, I've been so busy with stuff that I can't keep up with myself but its all good. I finally have straightened my guest room for my parents and I'm really happy about the layout I feel they are going to be very comfortable and at home and I'm so eager to see them and give them a great big hug, they are also going to bring my 8 year old nephew with them Duante and he's just a cutie and is 7 days older than Sydney so they have this special bond going on. Duante will be flying from Australia to New Zealand where he'll spend a few days with my parents and then they all will be flying to the states August 5th and I just want everything to run smoothely for them and I know we'll have a blast while there here. The special thing is my parents will get to meet all of my husbands family as they especially are coming over for my hubby's family reunion and we are the host city this year so you could imagine how busy I've been, I'm pretty organized because I've been planning it for the past 2 years but I just don't like to left unprepared so I'm working overtime to cover any loose ends. I did manage to have some leisure time myself, my favourite thing we did this week was when Sydney and I went to visit Lilyfest in Hocking Hills Friday morning, its been around for 20 to 30 years and it was the most awesome art festival I'd been to in a while, I even found some plants I've been looking for "chicks n hens" and bought a giant daisy flower garden sculpture to put in my back yard, we even got to play some viking kids games and met the most interesting Native American Wendall who makes teepees, I just love sitting in the teepee, when I grow up and have more land I want to make my own teepee and tell stories of old underneath the stars and in front of the fire, doesn't that just sound so cool. We found Carol and artist associate of mine from Studio 7.5 and went back to her beautiful log home and ate our packed lunch and played with her two little yorkies Ike & Izzy, they were so delightful, we then came back home for the rest of the arvo and I fell asleep on the hammock, what's new right! The day couldn't be more perfect than that. Sunday I was blessed with a yoga session with my girl Torrie, wow that really awakened my body up big time and we chatted together over a glass of fresh juice caught up on girly stuff and set off on our day, its now 6:40pm and I'm feeling the yoga workout across my chest, its all good though I so enjoyed the workout, it seems participating with a friend just makes things flow much easier and helps with my motivation to get it done. I think I'm gonna take 40 winks on the hammock, its a hard life I know but someone has to do it and so I must.

Love & Light
