My oldest daughter (22 yo) gifted the family with a new popcorn machine.  She's such a doll. She's been on holidays for 3 weeks and here the whole time. It's been a wonderful vacation. Her holidays are now over and I miss her terribly when she's at work. She lives away from home during the week when working (most of the time).  How will I cope when she gets married and no longer comes home on the weekends.

Look what's blooming around here at the moment. They also come in orange.

Corymbia ficifolia; West Australian red flowering gum

I noticed a couple of bushes this year. They are nice aren't they?

Years ago we bought one and planted it on the nature strip at our old house. It turned out to be white. It is a bit like lucky dip, although some have a guaranteed colour.

Our son went away to uni a few weeks ago. Between that and the heat and our age, I can fully understand. I have 5 children, and three older step-children.
