Notjustnat: International Women's Day

Notjustnat: International Women's Day

I found Kiva through Nat's blog and have become a supporter of this very worthy program that helps deserving people to get ahead and try to improve their lives!

March already...

..it's been a lovely autumn Sunday weather wise, after all the rain. We haven't had the flooding that the poor people in Central N.S.W. and Northern Vic have had. Sending all my prayers for their safety.
I haven't finished much recently, working on knitted squares and jumpers for African Aids children, knitting Premmie beanies and trying to finish a baby quilt for a friend and her new baby girl, I hope to manage some photos when I've finished.
Bye for now, take care..

"Here's to you Kaite, so I can comment on your blog I'm going to have a go at this again!"

I'm back..

where has the time gone, I didn't realise it was so long since I'd come here.
I'm not very adept at this, but will try blogging again. Welcome to 2012, hopefully I have some interesting things to share with others, while I'm learning about this wonderful blog world.

February...Where has the year gone!!!!

I haven't been to successful at blogging..............maybe I have to rethink how I want it to develop.
I have read a few blogs over the past year, some are so well written that I sometimes feel quite moved, in reading these I have learnt that I'm not alone and anything that happened in the distant past is in the past, I've gained a new confidence and belief in life and try to look for the positives in everything!
Love to All

Goodness me...

We had a delayed Christmas, I woke at 4.30a.m. Christmas day to find our youngest DD ill with gastro and then at 8a.m got a text from other DD to say she was sick as well, so their gift opening was delayed to Boxing day and we had a quiet Christmas lunch with my mum, brother and DH's mum. But more was to follow, that evening DH and I came down with the same thing!! Needless to say it's been a very quiet time for us, everyone is recovering now, but this did cause me to stop and think of the people in the world that may not have had the best Christmas, be it through sickness or suffering, and I'm hopeing that in 2011 something wonderful will happen for them...
