Term 2 begins

Sunday is Market day. We have a busy day doing lots of jobs around the place...tidying up a bit.
John and I enjoy an early walk around town (Tom is home with his lego)
The black swans are returning to the back paddock to graze.

We go up on the hill late in the afternoon...Lovely to look across to our top paddocks.

The boys turn over a bit of ground on the proposed cubby site (to be called Tom's Shack...very Tasmanian...as the locals all seem to own a 'Shack' somewhere)

 

We walk down to the bottom dam and explore a new area along the fence line..we find some lovely heath bushes.

 

Nice to get home to dinner and snuggle down for the night.

 

Tom is back at school this week. Monday flies by with orders and some customers.

Before long Tom is in from school. We do a bit of work on science subjects then he is off to scouts.

It is very chilly out. I go for a walk while the dinner cooks..

Lovely afternoon light.

 

John wanders down to get Tom. He is excited about the coming term's activies...weekend camp/ bonfire night/ night patrol/ visit to the cemetery...

 

It is a very cold  and foggy start to Tuesday.

Glad to be wearing my 'shark skin' on my early walk.

The day turns into a lovely sunny one. Not alot happening today with only a few orders.. We re-stock shelves, unpack an order, John sorts and prices books..

I am not needed in Tom's class this afternoon..

Thomas takes up his usual afternoon position with iPad.

 

The carpark is progressing...making a mess of our lovely back paddock.

 

 

Wednesday is another relatively quiet day...so I do paperwork and John continues sorting books between orders. After work we go up on the hill as it is a wonderfully mild evening...
Lovely.

Its overcast but warm Thursday. I am overdressed for community garden...we all are...and we take layers off during the morning. The Calendula are looking good.

We break up the Garlic and sow them out into beds..weed the Brassica bed and do some general tidying up before a cuppa and chat...

Still slow at the shop...
I head to Sydney tomorrow morning for the weekend.
Tonight I am staying with Hannah at the Uni.
We are having dinner at Rockwall...fun

Hannah drives back to Cygnet on Friday to awatch (and help out at) the May Ball
Tom looks very handsome..thanks Narns.

 

A fabulous Sydney weekend seeing my wonderful family...and doing some lovely walks together..
