Springtime

It's been a rough few weeks, with too much work and not enough good stuff. However, rather than complaining (again) about that, I'll just mention in passing that the winter is coming to an end, we've had two gorgeous spring-weather days after a week of desperately-needed rain, the wattles are coming out in flower, blossoms in town are blooming, the willows down by Burying Ground Creek have a sheen of green, there's a gorgeous magnolia out on my way to work, the blue wrens are busy flitting around outside the kitchen window, and there are a fair few wallabies, wallaroos, and kangaroos down in our bottom paddock.

So, my life's definitely got some simple joys in it. :-)
