At last, the days are getting noticeably longer and the sun has found its way back again. Recently we have had 18C days but the nights are still cold with frosty mornings. The old chooks have started to lay again and the jonquils are flowering, both signs that spring is on the way.
My youngest great grandson is now walking and today played in the goat shed whilst his siblings hurled round on their bikes. The have all been away this week house sitting for Marretta’s sister so they have been missing the bikes.
Yesterday we had Rick, a new helper, come for the first time and we got all the waste metal out of the storage shed so that Edd can take it to the recycling tip. There were several cheap metal bed frames that no one wants and the remnants of a shed that collapsed and fell over. All wonderful things to be rid of.
We have had a difficult two weeks because my back got increasingly painful so I could not bend at all. The physio gave me loads of exercises to do and I am almost back to normal again. The physio thought I had a repetitive strain injury and he could well be right as Edd got his shoulder injured and I had been doing all the heavy lifting to try and help him. Couple of old fogies we are!
Bo has an art exhibition in Healesville this month but we have not been over there yet. She tells me she has sold enough to cover her materials and framing costs which is great. Bo is so good to us. She does the animals for us every Sunday so that we can have a day off and she came and gave me massages when my back was sore. I should have had more daughters.
