Last week of term!

As you know, Christchurch has been having some seriously great weather.  Hard to believe that in the middle of winter you can be outside in your shorts and t-shirt...and feeling like there must be something just around the corner, waiting to come and freeze you again. 

However this fine weather means we've been out and about carrying on with a bit more fencing.  We keep fencing and  thinking that's it and then deciding it would be handy to have another gate 'there' or another fence 'here' and so it carries on.  Have put the hard word on the husband as they need to be finished before Spring arrives, otherwise we won't have paddocks empty for the hay, which we cut in summer and the cattle eat next winter.  Crikey now that's thinking ahead!  Anyway this is what it looks like from the back of our paddocks at the moment.

 With those warm northwest winds we get sunrises that look a little like this (this is on my way to work).  Shame the trees are in the way - but it makes it look like the sky is on fire.

I've also been working with this wee cherub.  She belongs to my neighbour and hasn't been  handled in about six years.  So I'm just mucking around with her, in the hope that enough handling and some sedation and she'll be able to get on a float and move to her new home (as they neighbours have shifted).  She does have a friend, but her friend is 25years old and no trouble at all.

And nope I'm not about to ride her!  One she is only a pony (so too small) and to I'm way past the wild days of my youth where I had the confidence to jump on any horse LOL.

So as you can see no scrapping going on.  Lots of scrappy sorting happening though, and the start of packing for Scrapfest (because I know that 'that' month will fly by!)

Have a wonderful week.
