Lloyd

Black and Tan kelpie.

Likes water to a point, she is not sure about swimming yet but i think if i take her to a river and I swim she will chase the ball in.
She has done it a couple of times in the local park pond.

My old dog learnt that way.

Yes, my dogs go everywhere with me, bush, shops, you name it.
Only time not with me is when actually hunting on foot.

.so they get well rounded and used to a variety.

Morning Tas

Darn re the roses, not to worry, perennials always look great, perhaps some spring flowing bulbs to go with them?

I went to PU some eggs on fri night and came home with a supermarket bag full of geranium/pellie cuttings, they are all now trimmed and in the shade house, so I am hoping they will strike.

Love the roses Bushie - you must have the perfect climate there.  We have the white iceberg standard roses which do look pretty.

 

Had coffee with granddaughter this morning and this afternoon going to celebrate my daughter's birthday - should be a nice day.

Hope you enjoy the Birth Day celebration Rosie.

I am still painting doors, I had no idea we had so many...................... one to go. My garden lady has been and gone, she did the pool yard this morning at 8am and it is looking a bit overcast now.

I hope you took the easy option, using acrylic and not enamel.   Horrid job whichever.   Your house must be looking good by now.

 

You live on the wrong side of Brisbane.  Blue skies here, and still very hot.  It has been the longest hottest summer that I can remember.

Re: My day

Well, no rain from it, all sunny again and about to visit the FIL and then off for my walk with my sister. We missed last night as a friend visited and wouldn't leave until it was too late! lol

Yes, using water based paint for the doors, much better than oil based, easy to clean up both rollers, brushes.... and myself!  the smell is much nicer too.

The house is looking good, all the jobs that should have been done over the last 10 years are finally getting done and I might just set a goal to have stopped by the end of this month.

The wardrobe doors in both spare bedrooms needed new handles but the spacings are out, so now, a new hole dtilled but have to get a little silver or white trim to cover the existing hole. It's only 1/4" out.

Hope they are available.
