About Me- Bird on the Border

My Photo
We have a wonderful son who has just married and I now have a wonderful daughter in law. So nice to have another girl in the family. My wonderful husband and I both work full time. We enjoy travelling ,going in our caravan, dining out and spending time with friends and visiting our children. Oh shouldn't forget "Tess" the spoilt black kelpie. I love anything country and Shabby Chic and I love patchwork and stitching and getting together with like minded ladies who love to do the same. I love catching up with friends over a cup of coffee , and the smell of biscuits cooking in the oven on a rainy day. I enjoy keeping in touch with friends I have met through blogging and sharing our sewing on line. I love going off on stitching retreats and quilting weekends with my quilting buddy Gail. And of course I love the birds in my garden. I also write the blog for our local quilt group Macintyre Quilters.

RAIN RAIN

Emma's parents next door neighbours house- Bundaberg 
It is so wet here . The rain started Australia Day evening and it is still raining. It was extremely heavy all day yesterday but today its just raining. All the roads in and out are cut so the road is quiet. My son is in Bundaberg but dry at the moment but not so for his wife's parents whose house is in the flood area. Their house is high so hopefully it won't come up that far.  My son is on the North side of Bundaberg and they have been ordered to evacuate so hopefully it won't get to their home but they do have to get out......We are  just waiting and worrying .. like many others .

Goondiwindi - our garden

Goondiwindi - our front yard 
These are some photos of my place.  Just nice and wet........

I just wish some of this rain would travel further west to those who need it and to the fire areas.  My thoughts are with all of those in trouble with these natural disasters.

These were early this morning its starting to rain really heavily again now. 1.00pm

Our house
