Alpaca a Lunch

The kids and I headed off to Mum's place last week to do some Alpaca hugging.

This lovely lady is Hermoine, she's always been the tamest in the herd and even though she's just had a little cria she's still happy to be made a fuss of.

Hermoine the Alpaca

They're looking a bit of a motley bunch because they roll in dust to clean and protect their coats.

No one wanted my lucerne.

Okay, who wants some lovely lucerne?
That's Christmas Carol - the little cria that was born on Christmas Eve

No one at all :(

I'll take that as a no then
That's Hermoine's cria in the background, he's two weeks old

In other news, I've got two blog tours coming up and am buried in interviews and guest posts.  I've got some lovely stuff to give away (including timtams) so I hope everyone gets a moment to comment and enter the comps.

The first one, for Drive Me To Distraction, kicks off in a week...

No rest for the wicked!

Warp Speed Mr Sulu...

Things are back up to Warp Speed.

On the weekend I made a lot of lists, many of which began with...
1) Stop eating easter eggs
2) Clean house
3) Budget
4) Buy new bra
5) Save whales

I call these lists, To Do (Eventually), and usually happen upon them in several months time only to find I can't tick a single thing off

Some lists are so much more fun, like this one below, I call it To Do (Writing)

• Write Running With The Hunted - its turned into a trilogy.
• Do a Maggie Lawson course
• Send out newsletter (sign up HERE) oh there will be prizes!
• Edits for The Bunker (out July 2013)
• Write guest posts for the Danger Game blog tour (fifteen of them, yikes)...

It starts in a month!

Of course being at warp speed is not without consequences...

Mt Washmore has reached epic proportions

With more still on the line (they may have been there for some time)

Half a tree fell on the washing line and broke it, sigh

 And the pool is still breeding new life forms...

And so it continues, much as it has always been
