Grumpy end to gorgeous holiday
We had a beautiful Easter break – relaxing at my aunt and uncle’s farm, watching the sheep and cattle, the tiny wrens bathing in the bird bath, chatting to relatives. It was a beautiful four days (with no crafting done whatsoever). Clare collected eggs, fed the chickens, “helped” with feeding out, and thoroughly enjoyed herself. But it is very, very dry in southern NSW.
We got home to discover that our house had been broken into. Very grumpy! It’s the first time it’s ever happened to me, and we were actually very lucky – nothing was taken – it seems that the burglar was looking for jewellery, and I’d taken all my good stuff with me (a discerning burglar – all the cheap costume stuff was left behind). Now we’re off to improve our home security – time for an alarm etc.
Oh Lara, I just popped over to check your addy for a link.
How awful !!! Grumpy must be an understatement !!!!
I guess you are lucky nothing was taken but…..You poor thing. I’m boiling the kettle now for a virtual cuppa. I don’t know why, but whenever anything unpleasant happened my Nan’s answer was always to put the kettel on. So the kettles on !
Thanks for your kind wishes Jodie – I’ve just had a cuppa myself. It is a bit of a shock when you walk in and see drawers open etc. But it could have been much worse! I think that I’ll need to distract myself with some more sewing.
