Saturday - Queen's Birthday Weekend

This is the title page for my circle journal that I am doing with a group from SBB. We are called the Legacy Ladies. This is my third go at making the title page; I am trying a newer style of scrap booking which has simpler lines.
I really like how things turn out and the reason I think that it appeals to me so much is that it is more mathematical..... working out spaces etc.
I have started packing boxes for our move in three weeks. It will be sad to leave Canberra as it is a great place to live but at the same time it will be wonderful to be back in Brisbane. This time I am going to unpack all the boxes and make some decisions about the things in them. They have been in boxes for over three years, so I get the feeling that the things are not very important to us any more.
I took Jess to Beaver Galley this morning, we had been garage saling but were getting too wet (wet! First rain for six weeks). We saw some really wonderful things, some great paintings of teacups done by a local artist. Jess was excited by them and it was great to listen to her do a constructive criticism on them. I came with the loveliest thing, a delicate porcelain container with patchwork designs on it. I will take a photo of it this week.
About the rain, yesterday I worked at St Anthony’s at Wanniassa and the whole school prayed for rain (four times), the arch-bishop of Canberra had asked the people of Canberra and Goulburn especially the schools to pray. Guess what! It’s raining.

What a beautiful title page. That is beautiful about the children praying for rain - we really need it. We got it down here on the south coast too. Thank you for the prayers.
