Hey.

Hi Everybody!
It's raining again! I hope it keeps up for a while, so the grass gets watered. On the 1st of August we are going to lock up all the paddocks we will need for silage. We are aiming for over 1000 bales this year, which is a big ask (I think) seeing as we only got 300 last year. But we will see.

It has been lovely lately, all sunny and warm. Just like spring. The trees are starting to bud and the grass is starting to grow faster. Springtime's comin'!

I haven't had a lot of time to write in the last month or so, work has been a bit hectic, with Paula, a lady who used to work in the pharmacy, starting again as manager and some 3rd year uni students coming for work experience to put all the theory they have learned to practice. They are really good, a bit of a change. And school started again last week, so I have been catching the bus in and out which is really great, but it takes another 1/2 an hour each way out of the day. It's probably good 'cos I can sit and think and study and pray, and to slow down and quit stressing! For the start of this term, there is a student tacher in the class I work in. It is a bit weird having someone else watching what you do and all the mistakes you make.

The day after tomorrow is Mum's birthday. She is turning 36. I remember her 24th birthday. Even a few memories from when she was 21. It's amazing to think that I can remember when I was 2. And that Mum was so young! This year, I will be the same age as she was when she married Dad. Wow!!!

I'd better go and start tidying up a bit. Grandma is coming up tomorrow!
Bye, God bless
