A great weekend with my fantastic niece

Wow, I really enjoyed my weekend in Newcastle. I really love being with Teresa, Kevin, Emma and Bella. The weather was perfect and very warm. It was very nice to have a long weekend.

Next weekend will be nice too as it is also a long weekend and I get to see Donna and Wendy. Can't wait.

I'm back and forgot I had this blog

Hi,
I am sure that no one will read this blog but who cares. I did forget that I had this blog and only re-discovered due to the beautiful Rhonda at Down-to-Earth blog. Thanks Rhonda. If you really want to read a great blog go to Rhonda's it is inspirational.
A lot has happened since I have blogged but this blog will be mainly about my drive to become more 'organic', greener and to get my family to be more self sufficient.
So far I have planted a vegie patch. Liam (DS2) and I spent last week-end planting all different vegetables for the upcoming Spring and Summer. I can't wait.
I am also planning to make a lot of Christmas presents this year as I think we spend too much money on gifts that don't mean very much. So far I have started on nothing but plan to make my Christmas cards very soon and start sewing (yeah, I know I can sew but hey I can try). I will blog all my funny experiences (especially when I fail).
I also working hard on losing weight. I am going to the gym four to five times a week and trying hard to be careful what I eat.
So if you want to read about the trials and tribulations of my life please feel free.
Have a great day.
