From Mick - Wendy's Husband

Hello to you all after a very long break......again,

I had a post half written and was planning to post that today.

But instead I want to share something with you all.

I just came home and my husband Mick said he had written something for me on my blog. I wasn't sure what he meant. He has never really read it or taken to much notice except for always being supportive in that if I say I am on the computer he always just goes and does something himself. I am amazed he knew what it was called and could find it. Obviously when he has logged onto it on my computer he was able to access writting posts etc and he just did what he thought you had to do.

So I was very suprised when what he had actually done was write a new post and he had left it open and when I got home he said go and read what I wrote. He said he didn't do anything else because he didn't want to loose it and wanted me to read it but he wanted it posted on my blog.

So without further ado I share what my love, my best friend, my husband just wrote to me and wanted to obviously share with all of the world. No editing - no changes - just straight from his heart.......






to those who follow this post my name mick ,wendys hubby. this is my first time writting here so this should be pretty short lol. i havn t read much of her work but know alot about it .
i first met wendy as a person on a mission from who knows where. but after 8 years i know where to . and that somwhere was to me .toook her a little to catch up (or vice versa) but we share an amazing life as simple as it is .we do not go without .we do not want for much. what we do have though is love ,and alot of it .today she went to a linen party while i mulched a new garden she has dreamed of (and nagged somewhat for lol)
i guess the moral of this blog is a couple of beers ,a bail of hay, a clear day and the thought she loves me for being me makes my world go round .
thanx for listening and i hope you can relate xxxxxxxxxoooooooooo. mick

The past few days in pictures....


My past week.....

Homemade Apple Pie in the cutest little apple pie dish - another garage sale special.

Homemade caramel tarts - very tasty

Mint going strong...

Mick up a very tall ladder with a long piece of poly pipe to knock a stray branch that was hanging down and very dangerous. Glad when he was down safe.


New pineapples starting to grow. I have four on - thought it was six that had set but it is four. Next year I am hoping for 8 min.


Bucket of bulbs that I was given on the weekend. They are all planted out in pots now.

Gardenia in flower - literally hundreds of buds ready to open on the tree - this is just one tree - I have two larger ones and two very small ones.


Flowers everywhere.

Beautiful


Fern that came up of it's on accord - thanks to the birds - gorgeous


Little bouganvillia planted out - can't wait for this to take up the whole area and be full of red flowers - it is on the road side of the property and will be spectacular when it is fully grown.

A tree full of baby lemons.


Is this the coolest street sign - I want to live on Easy Street.....

Second hand shop shopping - bargains galore - all ready to craft and make pretty to sell or give as gifts.
This is the biggest Hat Box - it is heavy duty cardboard - I will repaint and put bling on it and I am sure it will look amazing.




These are huge teacups and saucers. I am planting mint and parsley into them.

old doilies to use in crafting - gorgeous.

Micks Cycads are sprouting - awesome.


This kookaburra hangs around Mick all the time while he is digging in the garden. He is very game and will sit right beside Mick as he gardens and works in the yard.


Talk again soon, Cheers, Wendy
