Sunday Selections #789

April 26, 2026

Long ago, Kim of Frog Ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.

A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.

Nothing rude or vulgar though.

And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us.

In memory of Elephant's Child, the meme is now continued by myself and a few others. Andrew is one. Messymimi is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look.

Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally.

It's quiet out in the porch

and empty too

the girls have abandoned their chilly porch home

in favour of some inside warmth

Hello, I am Riley. My sisters are Jordan with the ponytail, Meg with the little black bow and Gillian who always wears pink.

Of course Ruffy the dog wants to join in the fun

He's very cute, we love him.

A recent downpour saw gutters become ponds big enough for splashing in.

here's a short video showing the raindrops falling hard almost like hail.

Just before I opened the screen door for the previous two photos I noticed this moth/butterfly on the outside, he took off once I opened the door so I couldn't get a better picture

pretty purple, it's quite a large vine but I don't remember what it is.

The intersection roadworks blockage along South Road at Thebarton which meant I couldn't get to the Big W store at the Brickworks Market. I thought about walking all the way around that block and coming in from the Western end but by the time I got back to the nearest east/west main road I was knackered and just wanted to go home, so I waited for a bus and ordered the items on line via "no-one".

once upon a time, I had a linen cupboard/closet, floor to ceiling,

loads of space! Now most of this is crammed into several chests of drawers and a cabinet in the back porch, with some going to the opshop/thrift store. My unit is the only one in the entire complex that doesn't have linens storage. I do have a bigger shower cubicle than most...
