Putting my money where my mouth is


Ok I made the challenge and now I have to put my money where my mouth is and complete the challenge myself.

This was very hard to do but also something I really felt I needed to do.


I am a month early but Angel's approaching birthday anniversary has been on my mind constantly lately so it just had to be done.

On to other things...

On Tuesday we had a wild hail storm here and the hailstones were the size of golf balls. The skylight in our laundry was shredded and the perspex in our pergola was too. Luckily one of Steve's mates was here when it happened because help was needed to hold up the roof of the pergola which was threatening to collapse under the weight of the ice and rain. While I danced around the laundry trying to clean up the waterfall in there.

We were lucky that Steve managed to get a felt cover over the car so there was no damage there but poor Ben's car was badly dented from the hail.

I will post photos of the pergola and laundry skylight when I get around to downloading them from my camera.

The positive's from all of this??...

We had our skylight replaced within 24 hours and we will be getting a whole new pergola roof...turns out that as well as the holes from the hail, the entire roof was buckled and warped so the whole lot will have to be replaced. Thank god for insurance!

Take care and keep smiling.
