Catching up...

Am putting in an extra post to get up to date and ensure short daily postings in the future....

Started the day with the doggies as usual - they are getting used to the routine of a walk and bone in the morning.  Have been popping in each day for a little while too - keep them company and hopefully stop Aussie from geting lonely and visiting me for company!  Met Ron next door yesteday - he now waves when he sees me.
Did i mention that the cemenet mixer has been in the last few days and the house footings are poured. 
Planted, bagged and mulched 11 peppies in the wetlands - hopefully these ones will do better than the last lot with me here to keep an eye on them.  Picked up the chopped wood from the laneway so the woodpile is just about full and did about 10 loads of mulch onto the amoeba (while Aussie made like a blade of grass at the fence and watched.).
Small glitch with the house sale - this morning the bank rang and said they will have to sort out the family guarantorship for Adam's loan before the house can settle - sounds like lots of paperwork and running around.  Never mind - will do whatever Christine at the bank needs us to do and get it sorted asap.

Finished the accounts (to date) and plan to spend tonight sorting out the office....

Though impossible to tell from the weather, Spring is definitely on the way with birds nesting and baby everythings including all types of ducklings and those pesky wabbits! (They are very cute though!) The first pair of mountain ducks have 12 striped balls of fluff waddling around after them, while one of the pairs of wood ducks have seven and the many pairs of wild ducks have several each. The Supa Golf wood ducks have seven too, much to Aussie's excitement.

Veges are looking fantastic and mushies are threatening to burst through any minute.  I sat in the garden quietly for a little while this afternoon while 8 28s watched me from the big tree - they didnt run away so it is a first step to feeding while i am in the yard....
