Contented days...

We have been enjoying a few days of sunshine...the days are just lovely and keeping in line with the Auntumnal feel the nights are just on the right side of nippy {not cold just a bit nippy}
Granny square blanket has been started...I name my blankets as I go and this one is the 'Ugly Mugly' one!  With no intention of spending a penny on making it, it will be as big as the leftovers in my bag will allow it and will have very little if any colour co-ordination.

The sunshine has meant the kiddos can enjoy the final few days of the holidays outside playing with their buddies.  I send them out clean and dry, a few hours later they're home covered in grubbiness, sometimes soaked to the skin, invariably hungry but always smiling...
I get to start operation pick up...Every year it never fails to amaze me at just how many toys can find refuge under the sofas, under beds, just about everywhere!
Hats off to the domestic goddesses out there who manage to maintain 'show home' worthy houses through the holidays.

In fairness there is a fair bit of PriddyPriddy stock lying around all ready for this weekend which isn't helping with the appearance of the home, but has helped with the homing of various action figures :)  Who knew vintage jelly molds would make such a fantastic prison cell for baddies??

Washing is already on the line, the chickens are fat n full, eggs collected, kiddos itching to go out to play, teens reluctantly opening their eyes {but unable to resist that sun pouring through the windows!}

Chores almost done time to finish another Vintage Suitcase waiting for me {final coat of paint + coat of wax}

Yep Im feeling happy and content at this time

Thanks for popping by...I love to hear from you and really appreciate you taking the time.
I am sorry about having to ask you to prove you're not a robot but for some reason I am having a LOT of spam nowadays {and we're not talking fritters!}
