Smelling the Roses

Hello my lovely Pink Sisters,

I feel like I've been whinging a bit lately so I've decided to cheer myself up and smell the roses.

Life is good today.

I'm feeling not so sore and things are improving as far as my surgery wounds are concerned. I went to Peter MacCallum Hospital and had my 8th Herceptin treatment and there's really no problems with that. Then out to lunch with my darling husband in a lovely cafe which reminded us of our trip to Europe last year.

Pigged out with a 'Big English Breakfast' (for lunch no less). It's spurred us on to plan another trip in the not too distant future.

Home again to sit on our verandah in the sun looking at the ranges in the distance and green rolling hills of home. 

I even picked the first blooms of roses in my garden (with Ian's help of course).

It was so good to get out in my garden again.

Here's a pic of my first blooms.

I hope I can share a little blooming health with you all.

Love Janey

    Thanks precious.  They are beautiful and I am sure they smell heavenly and will look even better still once fully open.

    I actually stopped and smelt an absoltely beautiful great big dark red rose this morning on my early morning walk with Miss Bundy.  I went back for seconds and thirds and really had trouble walking away.  It was heavenly.

    I am going to make sure I walk past that way every day and smell at least one of their beautiful roses.

    Luv'd your beautiful story, thank you.
