it's back...a little pre-autumn sunshine...

i love the that moment, at the end of an crazy busy morning...

groceries stacked in the back of the people mover...

P.O & banking done...computer ink sorted for the kiddos homework...

village local food market in the back of my mind for before school pick-up...

that moment...when i just stop with a cup of tea...a bunch of *chuck-it-in-with-the-shopping-roses*...and all my chippy bits in the garden...& some blessed sunshine...


i truly thought we'd seen the last of it for a while...i'd even changed my birky's for ballet slippers...

but we are being blessed with another late late late summer early autumn dose of it...

warm enough to open all the windows & doors...heaven for this aussie girl...

so...tea in hand...groceries chucked in the kitchen for the maid later...

i just played around in the sunshine...with the camera...& enjoyed the moment...

i've been up here in the north for long enough to realise that it ain't gonna last baby!



it's ok to put things on hold for a little heart warming...make-me-a-happy-mamma sunshine isn't it?

i mean i have lugged & carried & shopped & cooked & planned the entire day from sun up, till we hit 7:15 tonight & the last bambino has been collected from her last extra curricular activity for the day...

the moment when i pour myself a big glass of french vino...

so...really a little chippy chair loving & playing with flowers in the sunshine is a pretty tame vice...

wouldn't you think?


you know i'm in my de-crappifying  sorting the house mode...

so it's good for me to get outside and just smell the roses ;)

to leave the *god-where-does-all-this-stuff-come-from* piles inside blocking the doorway...

to have just a little downtime...you know, get my enthusiasm back to unpack the shopping i just lugged...

i'd really rather just finish my sewing & sit in the sun...

curse me!

life is sometimes too full- or maybe i just need more time...hours...hands...!?


 so...i'm thinking a little balance today is what i need...


i'm on a roll & then come 8 o'clock i'm being put to bed by the kids...

not a cool look...makes me seem a little errrr...old apparently!

who taught those children to have opinions!

so...just for a bit i'm getting a good dose of northern english countryside sunshine...

just what this beach-reared mama needs...



hope you're getting out in it

playing with flowers

loving your old bits ;)

&

enjoying the moment
