Wonky Houses didn't happen.

well I had wonderful plans for today..I was going to finish of my wonky houses BOM by Jenny

they are so cute and Jenny’s look super in the completed project…

Alas I put my wonky plans aside and helped hubby all day downstairs as late yesterday he discovered a problem….when he opened up a tool box…it had a dirt mound in it..on further inspection he found a couple of wee holes bored through the bottom of it…..

Upon further inspection he found his hammer half inside the dirt mound and then he found  a screwdriver.

P1030308 Hmm yes solid handle screwdriver.

P1030306 can you see what I see..yep the is holes right the way thru…In case you have not guessed yet…it is darn termites…

Upon moving a couple of items we discovered they had been nicely munching away on several things under a work bench….Do today I have been assisting /hmm maybe moral supporting (too ensure it all gets done) teeheee…and the area is now almost clear of all that was there..and the termites were fed too meat ant colonies around the paddock and then there was some that just copped a good ‘ol dose of mortien….

aw well maybe I’ll find sometime during the week after work to get my last wonky finished and assemble them all together in one hanging?????

Hope all the mothers had a wonderful mothers day.

Cheers Vickie.

Thanks for stopping by.
