I was just thinking that it has been a while since I have spoken to my friends from uni. Before Christmas for sure. I suppose that we all get caught up in our own little worlds that we forget about the rest. That happens even more so when we all get really busy. It is one of the busiest times of the year.
I hope you are all going well no matter what you are doing and I hope to catch up with all of those friends that I have not seen or spoken to in a while.

I have been growing this bonsai since it was very small about 7 years ago. By ver small I mean the size of your middle finger in length and as thin as a chopstick!! Posted by Picasa

this is my newly potted bonsai Posted by Picasa

it has old wire marks from when I first wired it and had no idea. But, I think it gives it character. Posted by Picasa

Bonsai

I have recently re-potted my bonsai.
It was in a larger pot and to be honest, just looked like a fig in a pot.
Now it actually look authentic- especially after I carefully transplanted the moss that I found in the back yard.
I don't know what it is about moss but it certainly makes a bonsai a bonsai!!

Tarnya is moving out to a place called plainlands. The house that she is moving to is pretty plain too but hey, what can you expect for free. I just think that the people that own the place are not that imaginative when it comes to furniture arranging. There are lovely number of green frogs there though which is a nice sight to see.

As Tarns has moved and Ross will be moving in, and with the collection of flamable tools I will be using, I have decided to move all my art stuff down stairs. This way I will not fumigate the house when I have to do work and I will also have more space. But, there is a catch!! As bonsai require morning sun rather than that of the harsh afternoon sun, the front room suits this requirement to a T!!! So - now that I have two bonsai after getting one for christmas, I thought that it might be nice to make the front room a lovely bonsai sanctuary!!!

Well, that is all I will write for now, I have been going all day and need to get some sleep before yet again another long and energy consuming day tomorrow!!!!
