Update

 Thank you for your good thoughts. 

He is doing very well getting over the surgery 

He is now even walking around the hospital. 

He might get home tomorrow or Friday depending on when they

Have given him any solid food 

I’ve spoken to him this morning and he’s very upbeat. Except for the lack of real food 

We really only now are waiting for the biopsy report 

Still very hopeful for a positive diagnosis. 

Finally some news

My son was taken to hospital a few weeks ago with severe stomach pains 

They did a scan and found a “mass” 

Yesterday he had a colonoscopy and gastroscopy 

They found the mass to be a tumour. 

They also found another spot with abnormal cell growth 

They have removed about half a foot of bowel

They checked everywhere and found nothing else. 

They suspect a carcinoma. 

They’re pretty confident that they have it all 

We now wait for the biopsy results 

If it’s a aggressive tumour he may have to have chemotherapy 

To just make sure. 

These few weeks have been very hard. 

Not knowing 

Worrying 

Just flat out stressed. 

I’m still hoping and praying that this is the last of it 

Please send all your good vibes. 

We need them. 

Farm world

Today hubby and I headed off to a field day at Lardner Park 

Farm world happens every year. We used to take the kids S it was way cheaper than going to the royal Melbourne show 

As usual there were lots of big machines 

Someone was selling these sculptures they had made 

They were stunning 








There were animals. Not as many as in days of past. But definitely enough to get the kids excited 





Cattle, alpacas and sheep 





There were even some hairy coo’s 





Taking you sheep for a walk as you do 



There was so much to see. It’s grown so much from when we used to go. 

The farm it’s in is hilly. I was exhausted by the time we had seen half of what was there 

I waited by the gate while hubby went and got the car. 

Except for my health issues cutting the day short 

It was a lovely day out 

Hectic and emotional

I’ve been running on adrenaline it seems. And I’m now in a crash 

There are different reasons that are causing me to be a tad emotional 

And there are worries that I won’t get answers too for a few weeks 

So I try to not worry, but sleep is eluding me adding to my brain fog 

I don’t mean to be cryptic but right now I can’t say much because we just don’t know 

I’ve been trying to keep on knitting. Crafting has always been my way 

Of dealing with things out of my control 

It’s getting pretty long now. It needs to be long enough for it to go right 

Around my chest 

In case you missed the post where I showed y’all what the finished product 

Is supposed to look like. 

Unfortunately today I’ve spent more time “unknitting” than actually 

Knitting enough to add to the length. 



I’ve now put it down and giving myself a brake. 

I’ll go out soon and bring in the washing 

I’ll fold it all and out it away. 

With a bit of luck that will get my brain into gear and I’ll 

Be able to focus a tad better than I am right now 

I will enlighten you all with the current situation 

As soon as I have answers 

Pray I get good ones please 

Iris’s

My irises that were ordered months ago have arrived 

The lovely lady did say that she dug them up in march so I wasn’t expecting them any time soon 

But having forgotten all about them I received and email telling me they were on their way 

They were packed nicely with shredded paper to keep the safe 

Also included a copy of my order and some pamphlets 

Advising even more varieties of irises 




I weeded a patch of the garden I wanted to plant them in and just put them everywhere not caring what colours were where 




They’re protected by the mulberry trees and a couple of other trees. I can’t remember their names.  But next spring after giving the trees a good pruning they will get lots of sunlight 



I’ve watered them all in and im exhausted 

That was hard work. Especially as I’m pretty unfit 

I just hope they all survive 

Friday fun day

We relaxed watching television 

We used grandmas fan to cool off 




New snack box was a hit 



Collected autumn leaves and pasted them on paper to take home and put on the refrigerator 



We also visited grandpa at the shed

And fed Dobby the Donkey 

And found a snail. We put him safely into the garden. 

Another fun filled day at grandmas house 

Mabon

As you know the seasons are flipped down here.  

So today we celebrate mabon. The autumn equinox 

Day and night is now the same length of time. 

All over the world. 

But for you in the northern hemisphere it’s spring 

Full of possibilities 

For us the harvest. 

Summer is going and the days will darken 

We will go in and rest from a busy summer growing and harvesting 

For the coming winter 



May we all have a blessed day and may the world be blessed with peace and 

Happiness 

So mote it be )0(
