a zase ta strecha - and the roof again :(

Konecne se po dlouhe dobe dostavam k vlozeni par fotek. Oprava strechy nam zabira kazdou volnou chvilku a na nic jineho neni cas. Po odkryti nas cekalo nejedno desive prekvapeni! Neni mi jasne jak to Neil vsechno zvlada, ja bych to uz asi davno vzdala. Neni to oprava ale prestavba cele strechy a vic nez to......

Finally, after a long time I am posting few photos.  Fixing the roof is taking up all our time. There are many horrifying surprises and I don't understand how Neil is able to cope with all of it. I would give up a long time ago. This is not fixing but rebuilding the whole roof and more....

before and after

A z veselejsiho soudku.
Malemu Makeefovi je uz pul roku.Sedi, leze, ma dva zoubky a dela vsem radost. Jsem moc rada, ze bydli kousek od nas a tak se vidame skoro kazdy den:)

On a better note.
Little Makeef is 6 months old already. He is sitting, crawling, has 2 teeth and he is making us all happy. I am very glad that they live so close and we can see each other almost every day :) 

Strecha - Roof

Slunecny pozdrav vam vsem. Leto je v plnem proudu,zahradka zkveta a my jsme stale v jednom kole. Neil dava na dum novou strechu a i kdyz ma pomocnika,vetsinu prace dela on.Snazim se pomahat jak muzu ale zrucnosti a silou se jim nemuzu rovnat :))

Just a quick hello to you my friends. Summer is in a full swing,garden is doing well and we are busy.Neil is working on the new roof and even though he has someone to help he is doing the majority of the work himself. I try to be helpful as much as I can but can't match the guys skills and their strength :)))

Reka River

Doufam ze si vsichni uzivate krasne leto.U nas se konecne teplomer splha kazdy den na 30 stupnu ve stinu. Vcera jsem stravila cely den na jedne z rek, ktere tady protekaji z dcerou Terezou, Makeefem, nejmladsim synem Dominikem a hrstkou pratel. Voda byla nadherne tepla,koupali jsme se cely den,pojidali a relaxovali. Nadhera!!! Uz se tesim az si to zopakujem. Co budete delat vy tenhle vikend ?

I hope that everyone is having a wonderful summer. We are enjoying hot,hot days with the thermometer climbing up to 30 degrease in the shade. Yesterday I spend the day at one of the rivers we have around here with my daughter Tereza,little Makeef, my youngest son Dominik and a bunch of friends. The water was so warm, we swam all day, snacked and relaxed.What a treat!!!! I am looking forward to do it again.What are you up to this weekend ?

narozeniny birthday

V pracovnim kolotoci minuleho tydne jsem ani nestacila pridat zadne novinky na blog. 23.6. jsem oslavila narozeniny a protoze to padlo na prostredek tydne,slavili jsme take jeste v sobotu.Tedy vyrazili jsme cela rodinka na veceri,protoze ja bych zadne jidlo doma dohromady nedala.Cely tyden delame z Neilem na zahrade a okolo domu az do setmeni a vecer padam do postele uplne vycerpana.Zahradka je ale konecne osazene do posledniho mistecka,vykaceli jsme spousty stromku ktere na stinily okolo domu a zahrady,travnik je posekany (mozna na tyden? :))) a strunkovou sekacku vypnul Neil vcera az kdyz byla tma a na praci uz nevidel.Dnes me tedy ceka zhrabnou co sni posekal a i kdyz mam cele telo rozlamane,mam dobry pocit,ze jsme udelali kus prace.


We were in the working mode all last week and that's why I didn't post anything for so long. 23.6. was my birthday and because it was in the middle of the week we celebrated it properly on Saturday.Even though normally I love to entertain we went to the restaurant. I had no energy to make diner.We worked all week till nightfall in the garden and around the house and every evening I just fall exhausted in the bed. We did lost of work though,the garden is planted,we cut down tons of little alders that were shading our garden and yard,the lawn is cut(for a week? :)).Neil still worked till dark yesterday with the weed eater.My body is hurting but I will go out today and rake.I have a good felling that we accomplished a lot.

Krmitko - Feeder

Pred par dny jsem opet zachranovala kolibrika, ktery nam vletel do domu. Vzhledem k tomu,ze mame stresni okna, neobejde se to vetsinou bez zebriku a kolibrik je evidentne ve stresu.Rozhodla jsem se tedy povesit dalsi krmitko ktere snad kolibriky bude zajimac vic nez otevrena okna a dvere. Tentokrat jsem si koupila jen "pitko" ktere se da nasadit na lahev. Tedy koupila jsem jich pet a tak dalsi budou viset jen co vyberu nejake hezke lahve.
Few days ago I had to rescue another hummingbird that flew inside the house.We have skylights so we usually have to get a ladder and the birds are evidently in distress. So I decided to put up more feeders.Hopefully they'll be more interested in them and stop looking for food inside the house. This time I just both the ends(5 of them) and used a nice bottle I had at home. I'll make and hang more soon.

Pridala jsem jeste koralky protoze cervena kolibriky pritahuje.
I also added beads since hummingbirds are attracted to red.

Doufam,ze jste si vsichni hezky uzili vikend :)

I hope you all enjoyed the weekend :)

Odpocivej v pokoji - R.I.P.

Ptacatko lezelo mrtve rano v trave a tak jsem si ho musela vyfotit i kdyz mi to nakonec prislo trosku morbidni.Chudinek :(

Little birdie laid dead on the grass this morning. I had to take a picture even thought it was a little bit morbid. Poor birdie :(

Tento tyden my prisla prvni knizka ze dvou,ktere jsem si nedavno objednala.Je presne takova, jakou jsem si ji predstavovala nebo snad jeste lepsi! Z popisy na  hackovane ctverce,trojuhelniky a dalsi ruzne tvary.  Hned jsem jeden vzorek vyzkousela :))

This week I received the first book of two that I ordered a while ago.It's exactly what I imagined or maybe even better! With crochet instructions for squares,triangles and other shapes and I had to try it out right away :))

Vcera jsem se pri nakupech zastavila v sekaci a zjistila,ze maji ten den vse za polovicni cenu. Musela jsem se drzet abych toho nekoupila vic:))

Yesterday I stopped at the secondhand store just to find out that it's the half price day. I had to brace my self not to buy more :))
