Well another week is nearly over, & it's been a pretty busy week. At the start of the week, I celebrated a birthday, only quietly with close family, but it was good.
It's school holidays here in Australia, & the twin foster girls I care for, are eager to get back to school. They are 8, so I don't expect that eagerness in the coming years. So we have completed the back to school shopping, with all the flurry of smelly pens, millions of pencil cases, erasers in all shapes & colours, it certainly was an experience & somewhat overwhelming for the girls, being that the most important decision they had to make was 'which school bag?'.
I have also been somewhat productive, with my sewing/craft room basically completed. Remember the chalk paint I got, I finished the table top & my kitchen dresser, which now stores my fabric.
Here are some crudish pictures-:

Still alittle unpacking to go, but at least I can use it now, just need to decide what to tackle first.
I fill you in, on how I go, in the next post. Before I go, see the bird hangings on the windows, they were made by the girls for me at school, they were sweet & a good introduction to sewing. Their school is only a little school, but teaches the kids some life skills, like sewing, cooking & gardening with live chooks too. Something most schools don't do, certainly not primary school. Bye for now.
