completely cactus: March 2007
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 26, 2007. I found old cases and bags, vintage fabric, antique scales and pressed wildflowers and i'm still trying to find places to put everything. As much as i get a thrill out of this treasure hunting sometimes i wonder what's going to happen to all this crap i collect when i'm gorn. I suppose it'll all end up in one massive pile on the verge and hopefully give someone else a thrill. Wednesday, March 21, 2007. Whoohoo get me back there. Wednesday, March 14, 2007.

completely cactus: November 2006
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 29, 2006. Such beautiful things are unfolding in the garden at the moment. Even though we are in the throes of a 'thousand year drought' and only allowed to water every three days the succulents, natives and bromeliads are laughing. And that's your blooming lot. Thursday, November 16, 2006. But i have decided to post something and as this is the only thing i've made this month, this is it. Thanks to the girls for letting me plunder their toy boxes and now the question is not whether i...

completely cactus: bums on seats
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2007/08/theres-all-sorts-of-upheaval-here-at.html
Thursday, August 09, 2007. There's all sorts of upheaval here at the moment. I've been talking to gas people, electrical people, wall people, furniture people. And as you can see from the middle photo the guy who bought the old lounge suite hasn't picked it up so we're in a turmoil furniture. You must be very busy lately, there has been a dire absence of posts, and they are being missed! Hope all is well, looking forward to a new post sometime (unsubtle hint, sorry.) Emma. :). It's all about me.

completely cactus: May 2007
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 27, 2007. Mr M got all excited last weekend and went out and bought a 2m wide retractable movie screen so that we could watch the FA cup final with a data projector borrowed from work. The game was terrifically boring and became known as the Sweet FA cup. The screen was a great success though, especially with the chillun. Unfortunately the second time we used it we made a movie choice mistake and ended up sitting through a pile of poo. Do they get these ideas from? Thursday, May 17, 2007.

completely cactus: October 2006
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 31, 2006. Oh it's hard to be back in the real world even after a mere month of floating free. We've stayed in seven different towns, visited another nine and seen 40 odd family and friends including 19 kids. Here are just some of the place names we passed driving around England. And we were awed and thrilled by thatched cottages, 1000 year old castles and accidentally spotting stonehenge in the middle of a paddock as we hacked along the M5. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). It's all about me.

completely cactus: illness, death and destruction
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2007/07/illness-death-and-destruction.html
Friday, July 06, 2007. Illness, death and destruction. It's been a week of mini catastrophes. My little one's just recovered from viral bronchitis and the wind's been a howling gale setting my nerves all a jitter. Which is one of my all time favourite trees. You can probably see where this is going, especially when i say there were. For it but they weren't interested in selling it. And finally this week, we woke up this morning to find our guinea pigs. Maisy and Popcorn we'll miss you. I took a cutting o...

completely cactus: April 2007
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 23, 2007. The old part of the town still has its charm though - this is the cottage we stay in and the view from the front room - we saw dolphins from the lounge room a couple of times. The bay is shallow and perfect for kids and the natural beauty is beautiful (naturally). Is very close and getting closer every year. We came back Saturday and got ourselves organised for Rom's 6th birthday party on Sunday which we all survived. Today it was back to school and because it's my birthday i'...

completely cactus: February 2007
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 26, 2007. It's just taken me over an hour to log in to the new version of blogger and i've got no idea how i finally got through. Sheesh. After that we went to our local food court for dinner where i had Tom Yum Soup, Mr M had a curry, Rom had sushi and Bonny a chicken bento box. And with all tastes satisfied we went home and ate our first home-grown mango. It was one of only four that the tree produced but it was a whopper! All in all a day of wonderful experiences and i even slept well.

completely cactus: January 2007
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 16, 2007. It's been, what, three weeks now since christmas and our lounge room still looks like this. Even with a bedroom each and a playroom (which all look like this too), the lounge room STILL LOOKS LIKE THIS. Can't think straight. can't write. Sunday, January 07, 2007. Guinea pigs are cute. And funny and incredibly dumb. They forget who you are the second the celery or carrot drops from your hand. And do they not have the most comical bottom lip you've ever seen on an animal? This is...

completely cactus: seastuff
http://completelycactus.blogspot.com/2007/06/seastuff.html
Thursday, June 14, 2007. Last weekend i flew an hour and a half north of this winter afflicted town and entered a parallel universe. Same state, different flora, different fauna, different colours. There was turquoise, aqua and a gazillion shades of white. Snorkelling, we saw angel fish, parrot fish, butterfly fish, rays, seasnakes, big coral bombies, sponges, urchins, anemonies, a huge octopus and so much more! About 2 metres long! After that i was happy to just sit on the beach. It's all about me.
