can spring be far behind?

My Joshie got the job! YAY! I am happy for him but at the same time can't help but feel a little sad. I am happy he is becoming more independent and a responsible young man but it also means my grip has to loosen. It is his first job, then comes his first car, and then going off to uni...it is all happening so quickly! Where did the time go?

I stayed up till about 2am to finish off the presentation that I had to do today. I am relieved it is over and done with and let me just say just in case you don't know this yet.  I hate working in groups.

It was such a lovely warm day today, very warm for a winter day.  Spring is so close and I want some pretty flowers planted.



This is my little pathway in the backyard.  I have been dreaming of planting some pig face along both sides. The only problem is our dog. He destroys everything, even the grass as you can see from the photo. He is very naughty, he has destroyed a kiwi plant, wisteria, jasmine, boysenberry. Everything.

I'm off to watch Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang and getting to bed early tonight.  I'm so sleepy.
