A very Autumnal laid back Sunday around here....

Sunday around here is usually a pretty kick backed kind of day, and this one was no exception.  Not that I struggle to do very little on any given day.  I figure as long as the washing is up to date on Sunday it is total cruise control for me.  The temperature was slightly cooler but still not winter woolies time yet. It was a lovely lazy day to wander around the garden and take in all the changes going on at this time of the year.

Amazingly colour is still happenin

 out the back of our place.

Berries, buds, seed pods,

and twirling stems reaching out

for a new direction to grow.

My big feet shaped paving stones

are covered in crispy

aged leaves.

The last of the vegetables on offer.

I want TOF to plant his vegetable garden

in lupines and mustard

for winter.

 But the girls will want to have a 

scratch and a dig

before hand.

Coral was looking all beautiful

and glossy

on this overcast 

Autumn day.

A praying mantis arrived in the kitchen.

Oscar was fascinated,

Tex ended up playing with it

then eating it!!

(are they the insects that get eaten after sex? well bad luck, no sex was involved)

Out the front the garden is

quite bushy

and in need of some

grooming!

Ivy creeping about

and

a lone pine cone.

A Blue Lady bird, a Sparrow, and a Clicky bug.

Obviously I am no Richard Attenborough

so Clicky Bug it is.

Even finished Dandelions can look lovely,

as to does the

Cactus,

and the

Flax seed pods!

 Everything is welcome in our garden.

(even visitors, nice to see you today Annette)

Meanwhile inside on the couch.....

slightly hungover and exhausted teenager and small white dog

both had a bit of shut eye.

Excuse Me!

I was up at 2.15am also

collecting said teen from town,

did I have a nana nap??

Another true story.

Sometimes

the day just passes me by.

Utterly Fabulous though!!

Hope you all had an enjoyable

and

very relaxing

weekend.
