Eddie

okay now i know that Chooky will be absolutely cringing at this post, but my blog is my Journal (admittedly a quite neglected journal at the moment) and therefore i feel that such huge occurrence as a new addition to the family needs to be recorded. Soo Chooky if you decide to stop reading now, i will totally understand . . . . . .LOL




i just love animals, i always have, when i was younger  my mum and dad used to say to me that when i grew up i would need a lot of land, as i was always bringing animals home, birds, frogs, tadpoles, cat's and dogs anything, I just loved animals.  When i was young i was all about cats but in  recent years  it has mainly been dogs. 

anyway you all know about Cooper, my super gorgeous Cocker spaniel / poodle cross. Recently though we added a new addition. Miss S our youngest has been asking for a pet for quite a while and well the planets all lined up and she finally got her wish.


This is Edward, mainly referred to as Eddie. Eddie is a pure breed Cocker Spaniel.
in the above photo he was just 9 weeks old with the sharpest teeth you have ever felt.


Eddie quite likes hanging out with his human grandma in the sewing room, at the moment he is much more interested in what i m doing then guarding the house with Cooper.


he can make it pretty challenging to do most things, Nahh grandma don't read play with me play with me . . . . . . .

unfortunately other than sleeping and playing chase with Cooper (they are the best of mates, most of the time) Eddie likes to Chew, soo we have had to do a little bit of temporary re-shuffling. You see Eddie really loves chewing on my Jute floor rug, no amount of discouragement seems to deter him. So for the sake of peace  (and to save the mat) the mat has been moved. Our house is predominately floor boards throughout so i thought well the sewing room could do with a bit of a cosy rug . . . . . . . .


so after a lot of shuffling 
Tah dahhhh 
Eddie thinks it's a pretty good idea too, not so sure my rolly chair will roll so well now but at least my tootsies won't be cold, the sewing machine pedal won't slide away and the mat has been saved from Eddies ever busy teeth . . . . . .

That is one very cute dog.
Always exciting when a new addition to the family arrives especially when he is as cute as Eddie...he reminds me of our Labrador Mimi who just loves to chew! Happy Times to you all with him!

Toorale homestead - Louth

We set off from Bourke  , we had stayed the night at Kidmans camp , which was a lovely spot and headed off south to start the Datling River run. For the first few hours we didn’t see any river as our first destination was  TooraleHomestead The drive in was pretty good , lots of dust and a little bit of corrigation but really quite good  We seen some wildlife including an eagle  Bit blurry as it was taken through the windscreen of the car ,  Some Emu’s and kangaroos  The homestead itself is closed to the public except during school holidays ,so we didn’t get to go in but , we knew before we arrived that was the case and I was keen to see it anyway. Sir Samuel McCaughey in partnership with his Brother John and cousin purchased Toorale, Nocoleche and Dunlop station. Acquiring 800 000 acres of land and 130 000 sheep and 80 horses.  Eventually Samuel bought his brother and cousin out. He built the homestead in 1896 as a wedding gift to his niece. The golden years for the homestead were betw

Scrappy chook quilt

So I have been keeping this one under wraps, not on purpose mainly just because I have been a very lazy blogger. A few months ago, as most of you know I had a visit to chookyblue's place, whilst there I had the pleasure to sleep under some of her gorgeous quilts. But one in particular took my fancy I just loved the scrappiness of this quilt, the lovely colours but mainly just the simple design. So when I headed up to Nundle for my retreat, I sent the lovely Kerry a photo and she assured me she could pull together some lovely fabrics and guide me, to put this lovely quilt together. When I arrived at Nundle This lovely bundle of fabrics awaited me The girls and I used the black and white feature on the iPad to determine light medium and dark fabrics I spent 3/4 of the first day creating these squares, I think I frustrated Miss Joolz because I just could not be random, I had to be organised I didn't want to get end and end up wit

Burren junction - Brewarinna

Beds on Barwon We left Newcastle at a reasonable time on Friday morning not gadgets ( my husband) usual 4am start and headed west.  We really never planned this trip out as such we vaguely decided that sitting by a river with a fire was our plan , a chance to take a deep breathe and slow down our lives for a bit. Almost 13 years ago we were extremely fortunate to do the darling river run with some wonderful friends and thought that we would love to repeat that trip and hopefully see the Darling river with water this time.  However at this stage our plans are a little up in the air with the road to Louth currently closed due to rain and some of the national parks closed for the same reason. Soo where are we heading , not sure but wherever we are heading it will be an adventure. So on day one we drove to Burren Junction where we spent our first night of our adventure at a truck stop  This is our new travelling Duo Reggie ( car) and Ruby ( van) we decided last year it was time to say good
