How did I miss that?????

My last post came and went without me even noticing that it was my 100th... Can you believe it???

I can still remember when I first started blogging, the thought of reaching this milestone got me so excited... I would dream about the mega giveaway that I'd do!!! Thanking all of the wonderful and inspirational people that had hung in with me for that long... Well in true 'Jodie' style I totally missed it... LOL!!!

Don't worry I still have that mega giveaway planned.... Since moving to the new house I've realised just how much fabric I've actually been hording over the years (shhh don't tell DH)...... I have a bit of this fabric left and loads of other gorgeous cuts that I just had to have, you know what it's like, right???? So I've decided to give a BIG wad of it away to 1 maybe 2 lucky bloggers who comment on this post.... I'll draw the winner at the end of next week....

Now I can't do a post without at least 1 pic, silly I know..... These, I guess you could say, are our typical dry dusty conditions.....This pic was taken a couple of weeks back. DH was lucky enough to get the last of the crop in before we got some much needed rain... 52mm fell the night he finished this paddock, couldn't of timed it better if we'd of tried.... So the Dust has settled for the time being and fingers crossed the next pic of this paddock I'll be showing you will be luscious and green, and not from weeds either... LOL!!!



Take care... :)

  2. I've just found your blog and glad I did - gee I hope the rain settles everything down and the crop goes well. It's hard to believe how dry it can be in the country when it has been so soggy in Sydney the last few months. Congratulations on your 100th post!

  20. Congratulations on your 101st post ;o)! Forgetting about a 100. post...that could have been me (but it will take a looong time til I reach that number, hehe).
    I feel the same about posting without a pic...think, there's missing something. And anyway, it's always nice to have an eye candy when you're reading...
    Keep on blogging!

  24. Congratulations on 100 posts. It is amazing how quickly you reach the milestones. Lucky you getting your much needed rain. We have had a little bit but not that much. I wish we could get some more so everything would be right from summer this year.

  25. Congrats on attaining 100 posts, all of them so very enjoyable!! I lived in Oz near Alice Springs for a year and that year it hadn't rained for 18 months!! Anyway, you can have some of our rain from the UK as its never stopped recently. Reading your blog makes me homesick for Australia, what a beautiful place, I loved every minute I was there but eventually you have to come home, but my heart stayed there. Cheers Jodie, it makes me happy to see all your photos. Andrea x
