2021 - The Year in Review

 January 

Another Year that started with a Bang!

DD fell victim to a Grumpy Bee Sting ending up in Emergency
We received our own Girls compliments of a Swarm that settled nearby.

and I started a Year Long Challenge involving Half Hexagons!

February
Involved a Lot of walking... Combining our Hour of exercise with a trip to the Cafe (for Take-away) Gave us time to see the neighbourhood around us and take the occasional Shot of the Day Photo.
One of "Our Girls" perhaps?

March
I celebrated 10 Years of Blogging by condensing the last 10 years 
into 10 (OK 11) Photos.
I must admit some months it has been hard to fit in a Post but I enjoy it.
So I will continue my Journal (God Willing) into the next 10 Years

April
Was spent mainly fighting with my Laptop, 
finding I have way too many Photos of my Cat
And working on the Focus Cutting Half Hexagon Challenge.

April was also spent anxiously watching Covid Numbers 
and Borders that opened only to slam shut again.

May
We Celebrated Our 40th Wedding Anniversary 
with an Adventure. 
Melbourne, Perth,  Rottnest Island and the Indian Pacific Train departing 16th
all the Way to Sydney!

June
Posting about Our Adventures took most of June 
by the time I sorted photos, drew maps and checked facts.


July
I finished my 2019 Temperature Quilt
and continued with The Hexagon Mystery Quilt 
while still playing with Half Hexie Challenge blocks.

August
The Mystery Hexagon Quilt was finished and on the To Be Quilted Pile
Second Vaccine Shots were received
AND
Little Miss A Celebrated her 1st Birthday
in the only way we could ... Via Zoom.

September

Had me revisiting the Past.
Making a Wall-hanging from Scraps & Fixing a problem in the Linen Closet
Some restrictions lifted and we were able to meet DD half way for her Birthday
even if it WAS only in the carpark of a Shopping Centre!
(Takeaway Coffee and a Picnic in the back of Bessie)

October

Our Bees swarmed over the back fence 
triggering some serious maintenance for DD's Hive
AND
The Vic Government announced the end to ALL Lockdowns
just in time for Omicron to  make an appearance.

Only time will tell if this Variant is Worse than the last one.

November

My only November Post was to wish 
Little Miss H a Very Happy 1st Birthday


December
Was spent mainly with the Repair/Renovation of my Mother's Laundry
and getting over Some serious damage to my knee and shoulder.
(Curtesy of falling over Her Cat!)


and of Course Christmas!

God Bless All who Come here and join me each Month.
May 2022 be a Better Year for Everyone.
