I'm miserable!

I am miserable- I have a summer flu, just all the weather changes and being exhausted catching up with me....and I think, stressing, I always miss Praveen when I am away [or he is] but find I am stressed even more so- his heart attack a few months ago has really scared me...but what to do? Life must go on.
Finally our bed has arrived! made by the same guys who did the windows- it will be 4 poster soon but they made the posts too short so I sent them back to be extended....


And I can show off some Vietnamese re-cycled fabric quilts I have.....just love the way they assemble their work...
Early morning visiors to my garden...the kingfisher was really nervous and kept flying off, then I gave up on him to take some pics of our Mung beans,  turned around and there he was almost on my shoulder- looking as surprised as me that we were eyeballing each other!
Crow is really funny- more like an Australian magpie in attitude, she sits on the wall and tells me what to do when I am working and has taken to bringing all the eggs she steals and eating them in the garden- I see at least 4 or 5 eggs per day....and some very large bugs.....
Little vingettes from around the house, blue glass from Syria, teaspoons from my Grandmother- they are thsoe old collectors ones, with medallions on the end of various locations visited.....love my Granny.....mung beans behind in our paddock
vegie garden zooming along with the heat and lovely rains that still contine....best monsoon ever....
our field of mung beans
Along the right hand side are Kerunda bushes- they are a kind of Indian version of Cranberry- very fruity but sour as welll- I look forward to pickling them and as well trying some type of sweet and hot chutney as well...yummm
