Lack of Sleep and The Life of Brian

Seems only strange chorus like messages come through at the right time, with this latest installment floating in after a very sleepless, hallucinating night of weird thoughts, dreams, nightmares and what-have-u...
Finally after a day of 'catching up' with health, and feeling somewhat downright odd, I get to have a warm shower, and *wow* all by myself after, *wow* having dinner made for me too!! Sacre Bleu an' all that. I haven't been ill for ages and this kind of 'glandy' 'flu-ish' feeling is really not not not welcome...I have babies to look after and 'things to do' and generally, I don't want to be ill, and and and...(you see where my thoughts were hey?)
So I'm in a little pit of despondency and self-pity, under a very warm shower, and in floats...

'When you're chewing on life's gristle, don't give up, just give a whistle!
and soon you'll see things turn - out - for - the - BEeeeeeeeeessssssssssttt....
And...
Always look on the briiiiiight side of life...*whistle-whistle, whistle whistle whistle whistle*
Always look on the briiiiiight side of life... (and so on etc)

oh Monty Python...you so rock
:)

Well, here I am.

I know I live too close to other houses, and other people, for my liking, but I am enjoying living here at this new house.

This morning I looked outside and I was able to see a beautiful big ironbark wrapped in a forest vine, shining in the dawn sunlight. Ahhh, it was so beautiful. And when I looked the other way out of my window I could see through the trees to a huge snowgum right inside the bushland near us. Its silvery bark shimmering. I walked outside to the backyard, barefeet onto squishy wet-with-dew grass, and soaked up some of Mumma's Earth vibes...very soothing, and looking up I saw the Moon,... with a little bit missing at the moment, but very prettily glowing out in the Northwest sky.

I get the feeling that if I stayed here I could get it altogether. I feel that it might just help me get the jigsaw done you know?

The other day I saw a Pheonix in the clouds at sunset (Southeastern sky, so its got to do with Growth and Perceived Wealths), and a few days before, another dragon this time in the Southern sky (strength and/or wisdom concerning Perceptions of Self etc)...Hummingbirds have been absent for a week or so...must have come through whatever that was. They were popping out all over the freakin place...

My Groovy new Draft Guards :)

This is one of the groovy things I made to help out during Winter this year. Really HATE cold drafts in houses when the weather is 'blurk!' and you want to feel cosy. When we moved into this new house I was amazed at how the wind howled through the door, when it was closed...

I put up with it last year, but not this year!

And so, I made a couple more for the other doors too :)

The Front Door has a beautiful Gold Shiny one....

And the back door has a Magic one with witch's hats, toads, wands, crystal balls and stars and things on it...

Cool hey? well, actually warming really...

I used some scrap material, a bit of cheap wadding, some old lined calico for the backing, and filled them up with beanbag beans. Very quick to make and I feel so accomplished also. Gave them a good dosing of Clove Oil to keep ze wittle bugsy wugsies out of the house as well...smelled so good ! :)
