Days 197 - 204/366

Day 197/366

This was the first day I was well enough to take a walk and it was a beautiful day. 2 Military Helicopters flew by whilst we were walking along the beach so I took a quick snap. I also found this skeltonised leaf and thought it looked quite special with the sun shining through it.

Day 198/366

This is part of a quilt that I have been working on for a looonnnggg time...it's a Block of Month called "Girls Day Out".  I am determined to finish it this year :)

Day 199/366

I am so grateful to be back out walking in the mornings.  The sun was rising as we went around the headland.

Day 200/366

Wow, Day 200!  I wished I had have realised it on the day, as I would have tried a bit harder to find something interesting for this milestone.  Coffee or tea anyone?  These two enormous mugs hang out in the back of the factory part of the office I work in on Wed and Thurs.

Day 201/366

Lots of textures here.

Day 202/366

Driving home from work with no photo taken, I spotted this band of apricot fluffy clouds as the sun set.

Day 203/366

Apologies but here is another photo of Coco.  I was hanging out the washing and spotted her hiding behind the lattice near the vegie patch..a quick sprint to grab my camera and a bemused cat posed for a photo.  I do think cats are so photogenic :)

Day 204/366

I started another of my "gunna"  projects today, sanding back our bedside drawers to re vamp them.  I love my sander, the only power tool that I have ever bought and fiercely guard (heh heh).  I have refurbished quite a few things and when I get  half way through any project I always wonder what on earth I was thinking.   So I forced myself to keep on sanding until it was all finished with the reward of a cup of tea at the end.  Stay tuned for the finished articles...fingers crossed my idea works :)

  2. Hi Helen, I've been off the air lately...bit too busy I'm afraid! Loved catching up on your challenge ...your photos always interest me with the variety you find! Especially catching is your tyre/hose photo and who can resist a cat with attitude? Some interesting perspectives happening.
