Time to hang up my antlers for another year.
BlinkBlink... that was Christmas and New Year. Gone so quickly. Full of fun and family!
Now it's time to turn the page, crease down the margin on a beautiful new notepad and think about today forward. Isn't it funny that we have to wait for some externally imposed date to be able to start afresh. Truth is, every day is a new beginning!
We arrived home yesterday from our holiday up north. Every week throughout the year we save our pennies in order to go and have a lovely relaxing holiday after the hustle and bustle of Christmas is over. It is so nice to just do nothing! ( except swim, play tennis, drink chardonnay on the balcony at night!)
I return, refreshed and ready to continue on this journey of simplicity. I realised how much we actually love what we are doing when within an hour of arriving home we were mowing lawns and digging half a bucket of potatoes out of the ground. In just 9 days of being away we have cucumbers the size of drain pipes!
I have so much to write about. All that time lazing around, reading greats books filled my head with so many thoughts that I had to start a notepad. I will work through it with some posts over the next few weeks.
But for now.... just logging on to say welcome to new subscribers and welcome back to regular readers. I look forward to chatting with you throughout 2009!

Welcome Home,There really is no place like it eh?
I look forward to keeping up with your blog,Iam currently going through all your older posts to catch up alittle...And loving it!
Last year was my first serious garden. I felt reconnected to the seasons for the first time in my adult life.
My 2009 garden planning had me celebrating "New Year's Day" on the equinox when December 22 had a bit more sunlight than the day before.
I love the different perspective I get on life from this blog. In the Midwest of the US we are mostly freezing our butts off and you are playing in the summer sun.
Sounds like you had a nice break - can't wait to find out what's being going on in your mind!
Welcome Back! I am very much looking forward to your posts throughout 2009. All the best for the New Year!
