Waking up to find a chilly with beautiful sunshine Autumn morning today. Letting the dogs out for a run around the property not long ago.
Today it is another year add to my age – 55 years. Reflecting all these years of my life has passed each year was full of surprises, sadness, joy, injuries/health issues, moving to the new pasture – a new home, job changing, getting older and still have my wisdom etc. Count my blessing each year!

How great are the gardens we have in our rural home!
The garden project is not finishing due to my new diagnosis last year and a step back for the delaying in completing the previous project from mid-autumn 2018 to now. This Easter Weekend 2019 to next year, I am determining to achieve the last push of the garden project into less garden maintaining such as weeding, composts, garden edging around the gardens. I am aiming to grow plants in the greenhouse through the winter season, self seedings in the ground, to produce more fruit crops for work (kitchen – Meals for the Homeless people), Jacek’s request on jams, soups, summer meals and for us.
I hope to arrange a small team – a working bee group to help me out while my devoted partner is working a long hour each day. But I often work with Jacek who has multiple disabilities during the weekend because he works five days a week.
Over the Easter Weekend, we plan to not travel anywhere at least if my partner’s son would like to see us when he is not busy as well. We have a job to do over the Easter Weekend – tidy up the section where there was an old house sitting there for many years, to store woods as fire woods that will last us more than 4 years, clean out any unwanted rubbishes and take to the dump or burn it. Then we will make a new section which will be a small herb garden along with several small fruit trees such as blueberries shrubs and an apricot tree to be pair with another current apricot tree. As well a tiny section of native shrubs and bulbs of Dahlia.

Oh, what a bliss life we have in here and we are SO grateful to get out of the city of Hamilton nearly 5 years ago. BUT we don’t get any family members visiting here for 3 or 4 years ago. They are missing out heaps of our changing gardens and missing out the chance to play or to camp in our large property.
