Well 2022 has been a blast so far hasn’t it dear reader. Haha, I hear you chuckling in the back seats. So far we have lost four celebrities from my childhood era, the latest fatality being Meatloaf (may he RIP).

Of course Covid is still mutating and spreading all over the place in spite of the majority of peoples effort to be vaccinated, get boosted, wear masks and isolate when ill or a close contact. It appears like Covid is going nowhere in a hurry. Experts are urging Governments to contain their citizens but the citizens are rebelling and refusing to comply. The only State whose citizens are moving freely is WA but they have taken the extreme step to keep their borders hard closed from the rest of the outside world. I’m not here to debate any of this, just the dot points so far.

January has also bought about a huge personal change for my husband and myself. Due to a work promotion for him, we have relocated to a small country town in South Australia. Of course our three “junior Adult” offspring have maintained residence in the family home in Melbourne. So Husband and I are reclaiming newlywed status and finding our way as a couple without distractions again. Or at least we will when he finally gets out of Melbourne (car issues). I am in our little cottage house, settling in, ordering furniture and generally putting my stamp on the place.

I have many plans beginning with cleaning up the grown out garden beds and planning winter plantings. There are 10 different fruit trees on the block and no vege patches (so that will be rectified) There is a huge chicken run that will in the next month be filled with 4 laying hens. I have many areas of flower garden in desperate need of thinning out and dead heading. I have barely scratched the surface.

In other exciting news I have vowed to begin writing a book as well as keep updating this blog. I joined TikTok, it’s a blast. I will advertise my blog on there and see if I can boost some followers.

So toodles for now and I will update soon.
