morning ladies 
We still have loads of wind and it's cold. Just by looking out the windows, it seems we have survived the storm. Will have a closer look when the Furry One and I 'do the rounds' a little later on.
Yesterday I noticed one of our little South Pacific iris' is in flower. So early
but no complaints here. And our burgundy magnolia is beginning to bloom as well. Can't wait for the new magnolia to bloom but it's a little later in the spring season. We planned it so one finishes flowering and the other begins.
Our son phoned yesterday to tell us more town houses are being built around them and there is one 'hold out' in the block. He was laughing when he told us, the property owner had painted 'fu** off, I'm NOT selling' in huge letters on his fence. He obviously was getting sick of developers asking to buy his property lol. Imagine that being painted on a fence here lol. Son is also really excited about his upcoming trip to Japan.
I've finished the hardanger piece and am happy with it overall. A few mistakes but that's OK. I'll take a pic later and post it. Today I'll cut out and overlock some fabric, wind the new threads onto bobbins for this cross stitch and maybe even start it. I can do that while MrK's PC is here later this morning. She is an absolute godsend.
Time to put the steroids into the Furry One's ears. He hates it but needs must.
