Finally i have finished this rocking chair and I'm very happy with it.
I purchased this in Morayfield last year and it was very worn and scratched but that was ok as i wanted to paint one up myself anyway.
I spent such a long time sanding every part then prepping and doing undercoat then finally 2x top coats and TAA DAAA all finished ready to be enjoyed for many years to come.
what a great sense of achievement in the finished product :)

G'DAY Happy Australia Day 2017 Having two Aussie Kids born & breed in Australia i feel so much Gratitude for this County and what it Represents for our Family. Moving across from New Zealand for a two year OE in 2007  it became quickly apparent the Aussie laid back lifestyle suited perfectly our wants & needs for the future also the endless opportunities this Country offered us that our Homeland couldn't. I think people think its the Money that lures us Kiwis across but its much more than that let me enlighten you : The warmth ! That beautiful glorious Sunshine that fills you with warmth deep down inside your soul enlightening you & recharging your batteries!!

Its the next stage in her Life "Our Life" ! Its a big thing right ! ! She's now expected to be more mature.  Not be picked up & cuddled & soothed as much. She is a big School Girl that should no better when acting out & a pile of other expectations that get put onto the Shoulders of children when they move up into the next stage of Life! A huge part of me wants to run away to a Beach & raise my Children Home schooled without the stresses & dealings of everyday School life! I still remember my early School years (well all of them & its bloody hard work) !  Dealing with so many emotions and situations at such a young age!  When life should be carefree & all about who is "it" whilst playing Tiggy & getting Bindys stuck in your ...
