I guess I need to count my blessings. It's been a rainy, cold and windy summer but the garden is flourishing. Finally some sunshine has arrived and we get to enjoy the fruits of our labour in the garden.The salad walk is coming along well and I have ordered a bunch of seeds from Kings seeds.
I planted some snow peas at the end of the walk and scattered some arugula seeds in the gaps. Can't wait to see those take off.
Every year since about 2006 I have intended to plant sweet peas on Anzac day. This year I'm actually going to do it. I promise!
Work is going well - frantic but I'm enjoying it. We had a Palmy rocks event on Monday and Tuesday and this Friday we have a Rainbow Tea. Campus is so vibrant and fun with all the students around.
We have finally scheduled the work on our house. Looking forward to having that done. Manaaki is showing an early aptitude for interior decorating. We were talking about colours for wallpapering our living room and I suggested green. He said "No, it's already green outside. That will be too dark. I was thinking a peach or beige." and quick as a flash he brought up some examples on Pinterest. It was his confidence that most struck me. How many seven-year-old boys know the colours peach and beige?
We are in a good place right now. I'm starting to look out for jobs as my contract is up in July. I'm really hoping I can continue it to a permanent role as I love the job. I guess there is just know way of knowing what is around the corner. I just need to keep plugging.
