It’s a beautiful Wednesday morning
I have nothing much to say except it’s another day in paradise here in Tumbarumba and I’ve woken up feeling pretty amazing!
Our little town is getting ready to celebrate the 25th year of the weekend-long music/food/wine festival that is Tumbafest. This year Aussie Jessica Mauboy is the headline act and it’s looking good for a big weekend. Just hoping the weather holds!
I’m preparing the house for an influx of family and if I’m honest I do my best work when under a deadline of house guests arriving! I can’t wait to have two of my grandchildren in the house 🙂
Wishing you a lovely day 🙂
Changes to Wordless Wednesday
I have been doing Wordless Wednesday posts (or attempting to do them) for quite some time now and at one stage even changed the name to Worth a Word Wednesday, on the suggestion from Suz, my NZ blogging friend.
But for this year I’ve decided to change it up a bit, post only when I have something to say on a Wednesday and use the Wake up and be Amazing, it’s Wednesday as inspiration.
You see I like words too much, and yes I know a photo can tell a story but sometimes I want to add words, lots of words, so it moves away from being Wordless Wednesday. I’ll still use the hashtag and tags in my posts just so I keep track of all the posts I write in that category but I’ll try to feature more amazing news!
You’re amazing – and don’t you forget it!
Deb 🙂

You do realize that having Jessica Mauboy means that your Tumbafest is now on equal footing with Eurovision don’t you? Exciting times and I know you’ll enjoy every second of having the family staying and enjoying the festivities with you – the joys of living in a small community. Have fun!

I love how positive you are – another day in paradise. I’d never thought about it but where I live, near a huge forest, is also a paradise, and if I reframe an ordinary day, every day is special.

Many thanks Gail, I agree every day is special in some way. I live in a small country town, next to a forest and some might say it’s nothing special but to me it’s paradise!
