Morning ladies 
Well, what a rude way to start the day lol. A M5.1 earthquake jolted us awake this morning. Was short and sharp and over quickly.
We have rain the garden will be very happy and it saves me having to hand water the garden pots. Yesterday I spent the remainder of a Mitre10 Christmas gift voucher on a garden hose fitting and a hosta which will hopefully grow as high as my waist. It should look great in the spot where it has been planted.
If I can mow the lawn between the rain drops, I will. Otherwise today will be an indoor day stitching
I have also inherited a lot of family 'stuff'. Over Christmas I managed to sneak a couple of pieces to our daughter that belonged to her Gran and stuff our son didn't want. Girly stuff like little dishes for your dressing table. We have a notebook with pages labelled with the kids and now grandkids names. We write in it what each person wants when we fall off our perches. One thing the kids have 'scrapped' over is an old cast iron frying pan that belonged to MrK's parents. When I met him, it was around 70 years old then and we've since been married for 34 years. Our son 'bagged' it and has his name on it. We had to laugh as we bought our son a cast iron frying pan for Christmas (Black Friday sale was awesome lol) and quick as a flash, our daughter says, well, you won't be wanting the old pan then, so I'll take it lol. Her partner's family must have thought we were mad as the fun teasing over a frying pan kicked in lol.
Better get cracking. The rain has stopped and the Furry One and I are going to check outside just in case there is any damage from that jolt. Not that I expect there to be, it was over in a flash.
Happy crafting
