Not that I expected anyone to miss me because I have not been a member of this forum for long................   

I went away for a week to a cabin I have in a place called Porepunkah.

IT WAS SO HOT.  My son and I went through 25 litres of water in 5-6 days.

I sat on the verandah of my cabin most days and just cross stitched.  I decided not to do any bears while I was away because I really needed to work on the birth sampler I am cross stitching for my grandaughter in celebration of her birth last month.  I got a lot done.   

I took my laptop computer and wrote a blog (and took photos) and I uploaded it a little while ago.

We had a lovely time and I plan to spend at least one weekend a month at my cabin. I did not get up there much last year because I was so sick. Now I am feeling better I intend to bet up there as often as I can.   

Bear hugs,

Hi Cathie, Glad to hear you had a good break away.  Wasn't the hot weather awful.  We had quite a few days in a row over 40 degress celcius here in Adelaide, and unfortunately, I think we sent it on over to you.  It is much better now thank goodness.

Hi Christine,

Yep, the hot weather was, well, very, very hot.   

We usually get similar weather to Adelaide, but, I think you were hotter than us.

I normally do not cope well in the heat (I am now used to my air conditioner at home) and when my air con in my cabin was next to useless, well, I did not think I would cope, but, I did. 

I spent most of the time sitting on the veranda because despite the heat, it was cooler outside than inside.

Now I am back home, it is back to work and back to bearmaking. I have two bears here that I started to make before I went away. Now I will finish them.............

I hope it is not too hot this coming week......

Bear hugs,
Cathie
