So it seems I’ve been away for a while! Honestly, I was just over here, quietly unravelling. Spent a few days crying and yesterday Matt told me I had to eat. This has never happened in the almost 13 years of our marriage. This girl does not need to be told to eat 😂🙌 But yeah, loads of tears and meltdowns. I’m sure many of you are feeling equally scared and uncertain. How the world can change in a few weeks!!!

But today I woke up feeling a little better... and hungry 😉 We’re in proper lock down now (personally, to help stop the spread but to also keep me healthy as I’m in a high risk group) so I had a wander but it was just across the road and then around the garden. And you know what? There was life everywhere! 

A circle of newly emerged Planthoppers, a very active Praying Mantis climbing and flying between plants and over the washing, a Robber Fly hunting and a gaggle of Fairy-Wrens singing on the fence. And finally I got a package delivered. One I had ordered before things had turned really bad. Bags, cards and pouches, all featuring my photos. And I remembered what it is that I do, and why it is that I do it 🐞🦇🐍🐋🦋🐨🦆

So this isn’t to spruik my store, especially in these crazy times, but it’s to show how things that you organised in the past can come back to give you just the kick up the bum that you needed. Back to normal posting tomorrow (hopefully!). 

Stay well!
