~ Simple Joys Saturday ~ #8

As so often happens, things don't turn out how we expect, and we have had to adapt because of Barry's cold. Still it has been a great time, enjoying relaxing by the fire here, and more time with daughter and grandaughter, and some chats on MSN that I would have missed out on. I've had time to mess around and find a new background on my site too.  I have not felt the cold, much to my surprise, it was minus 7C yesterday morning, and cool again this morning, but I just thought it was lovely and brisk..... would have been happy to do something. The sunshine is glorious, in the peace of a country homestead, only the sounds of the birds, and the leaves in the breeze if I listen hard.

So it has been a time of Simple Joys and relaxation.

Barry says he is well enough to drive and we leave the Blue Mountains tomorrow and drive through the scenery below to his brothers. And later to the historic town of Windsor where we were last week. I will catch the train in to see my son and D-I-Law.  On Saturday, if Barry is still sniffly, I will catch the train to Parramatta for the Reunion that was the excuse for this trip.

As I said on my Simple Joys introductory post for this week, No 8, this is the last time I can be sure of being online until we get home after the weekend.

I just found a Christian site with the invitation to share the quotes and contents. Here is one of them.

I invite dear friends and readers to share your Simple Joys.... click here for Mr Linky.
