Australia - Six states..and that funny little island.

Ahhhhh lightbulb moment. I've had to go dairy free and have been drinking almond milk. Was a little confused to notice one of the ingredients was ground limestone. I thought maybe it was to make it whiter but now I'm thinking it's probably for the calcium duh!

Haha, I take my calcium carbonate daily in the form of Caltrate plus , since I broke 3 bones in a space of 18 months.

Well, the chicken coop has to go on hold, which is pretty sad for a couple of the chooks who refuse to roost with the others and so insist on sleeping on top of the shed - even in the rain.  I don't dare lock them in, because they're lowest in the flock and they'll be bullied.  The new coop is so huge I wouldn't care.  We've managed to score the hire of a digger this weekend, and we desperately need to do some landworks.  The chicken shed now has one back frame up and the floor, but it's pretty big and needs hands on, so it'll have to wait.

Phew, rennovating never, EVER ends!

At least some of our rooms have internal walls now...though we still have rooms with only external walls, so the house is gonna be cold in winter again.    

I hear you, when we bought this place there were no doors or windows and the cows had moved in along with 7 possums. Our house is 168 years young and after 15 years of renovating I think I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Howdy folks I have been lurking and keeping up with the posts but have not had time to reply until now. Sidhe13 I so hope that you have a better hatch this time around! satay your baby quails are adorable! cwrite Dusty cornered a Dove in the run once and proceeded to remove all of it’s tail feathers! Tail feathers: No tail feathers tandykins congrats on the bubbies, soo cute! More emphasised congrats on the save also! Good to see you again vehve the snow pictures are beautiful; I especially love the fifth one in, looks like a frozen waterfall. Congratulations on the bubs. I have a broody and chicks of my own that I can listen to but watching your video and listening to the bubs peep, the mum’s talking to them and the alarm calls is so nice; can’t get enough of it. I saw the bunny home you built on one of the other threads and just wanted to say that you did a great job! Looks fantastic! Looking forward to baby bunny pictures So, we had lots of rain again today and once again, we flooded. Cilla and the Nuggets spent the majority of the morning hiding in the nest box and on the balcony, watching the water flow through their run. It is not that their run is in the wrong spot, it is just that we have had so much rain of late any heavy downpour has nowhere to go and sadly we are lower than next door; at least they all have high, dry ground to sit and wait for the tide to go back out. It rained so hard, knocked a poor little Dove out of the tree and onto the ground; sadly he didn’t make it Hubby is getting the materials for the run extension tomorrow as we figured Good Friday was a good day to make a start, nothing much else going on; weather permitting of course.

Oh poor little dove. I miss the little ' top knot 's ' and the turtle doves we used to see in NSW. We don't have any here although we have had a family of magpies move in. Just hope the sea eagle doesn't get a ' taste ' for Maggie .

Lol they are here in SA, only closed good friday. Supermarkets and big stores anyway. I done this with the son for others. For them all ive got are some eggs for a hunt, couple of little cheap toys for hunt and those plaster and paint sets. Prob spent $20 on the 2 kids. We spend tonnes on christmas but barely get into easter, in my opinion its not a big deal so i think ull be fine with a last minute thing or 2

I'm on a ketogenic diet at the moment which means little to no carbohydrates so no chocolate for me and I've asked my husband not to make (or buy) hot cross buns this year as we both need to lose weight. I know he wants buttered hot cross buns but I don't want him in hospital after Easter because his gall bladder flared up again. :| The kid can have chocolate but none for us! That's probably why I forgot. XD

If any of you have sussed out my personality from my posts, I believe I am a fairly happy, easy going person.

Right now I am not myself!

If I could have one thing this Easter it would be for it stop raining so we can dry out! Not going to happen, the forecast for Friday, Saturday and Sunday is more of the same.

For Sale:
1 x Hill’s Hoist Rotary Clothes Line!

Might as well sell it cos I can’t see me using it again!

Will trade for building material suitable for ark building!
