Rain, rain, go away...

Well, what a La Niña we are having!! Here is what has happened at our house:
the overnight rain (and there has been more...)

my youngest daughter's bedroom floor (she had to sleep in her sister's room last night)

the garage ceiling (I had to drill a hole in it to let the water out)

In the 20 years we have lived in our house we have not had such a problem. It seems that the company that installed our solar electricity panels drilled through the roof in inappropriate places and this is the consequence!
Meanwhile the rain continues... The forecast is not good for our nation's capital. Canberra is predicted to get half its yearly rainfall in the next few days. 
Let's hope it does not eventuate!

blog stats and jargon

I love looking at the blog stats. The data collection and analysis fascinate me!
I noticed that a few of my photos have made it to pinterest and I said to my husband that "I'm getting a lot of traffic from pinterest to my blog".

There was no response.

So I asked whether he understood what I just said.
He replied "Not a word! I'm going to bed!"

I had to laugh! That says it all, I think! How the times are changing!! :)

Guess who I saw...

What an amazing man Rod Stewart is! We had a blast at Hanging Rock yesterday. It is a stunning venue, don't you agree?!
I took my daughter's point-and-shoot camera as a backup to my old Lumix, and I found hers took great shots in the dark!  Here's a little collage of photos of rockin' Rod:
Oh, to have such energy at 67! I hope you had a terrific weekend, too.
