Not a lot for WOYWW

I just seem to be going around in circles

and getting nothing done,

must be getting close 

to Christmas!!

Here in Australia that means

summer holidays are

getting close,

in fact little miss only has

one more week of school

(boo hoo).

Which means not much art for me

for the next 6 weeks :(

It also means racing to get ready for 

Christmas.

So, to my desk

 Yup, looks like last week

accept I have more cards started.

I decided to have a real go at

actually getting cards done for

Christmas and post them before Easter!!

As you can see I didn't get very far.

In my defence, I am still waiting for the

green and red card paper to arrive

so I can't put them together yet.

I know there is some card in the photo

but it is really wobbly and thin.

Speaking of wobbly, I had a bit of

wobble myself.

 I have a nice little veggie patch which

is fenced to keep the chickens out.

Unfortunately it also keeps me out

and I have to jump and squeeze to get in.

I had my hands full of lettuce leaves the other day 

and when I jumped I missed the step

and someone took the ground away.

I used the arm that wasn't holding the lettuce

to try grab the metal frame but

missed that too and ended up

in a very unlady like position

with my bum squashing some poor lettuce plants.

Hubby thought it was hilarious.

Needless to say

we now have a new fence with a real gate.

That will teach him not to laugh.

Here is my birdie painting

as of today,

 

 The orange glaze is actually

much more brightly orangey

than the photo, in fact it kind of glows.

Shame I'm such a bad photographer,

I'm sure you would have liked it.

There's still a long way to go

but so far so good.

I'm off to rest my bruises from

the veggie incident,

so why don't you go over to 

Julia's Stamping Ground

and check out the other desks 

around the world

this Wednesday.

P.S. I have been having trouble leaving comments

on people who have Google+.

I apologise if I don't manage to leave a comment

as sometimes I just can't seem to find a way to do it

and I often would like to reply to people who leave me

a comment but can't if they 

have the Google+ and are no reply bloggers.
