I decided not to post a page this morning. Then after the milking and after I had started a new cheese, my daughter called from hot, hot Melbourne and said ..
I am waiting. I have been checking and checking. Where is todays post? I want to read it before I go out.
What time is it, I said.
Midnight.
Midnight. Oh. Well, there is nothing to see. I took a few shots yesterday, I said, but they are all so deadly dull.
We want to see the dull too, she said. 
And how will all your people really know what it is like if you hide the dull from them? Chimed in Our John.
You are not supposed to be listening to other peoples phone calls. I said. He went back to his paper.
I thought men could not hear a thing when they were reading the paper, my daughter whispered in my ear.
Hmm, I said. 
So here you are. But you do see what I mean. 
The only change I have today is that it is windy as well.
My daughter told me a story about some people in Aussie who, to escape the bush fires, evacuated themselves down to a beach. There they discovered that they were sharing their beach with a large number of kangaroos who had also designated the shore as a meeting point in case of fire.
Have a lovely day. And welcome back to work New Zealand. I am off to check and see if the cheese has set.

Dull for you is a fresh view for us:)xx
Someone elses “Dull” is always more interesting than out own Dull. I’m glad those people were greeted by kangroos on the beach. Imagine if snakes or Tasmanian Devils had booked the beach as their meeting place. I like your daughters persistence in forcing you to blog your dullness.
yes, there are scarier animals than kangaroos, though I hear it is not wise to get them in a corner!! morning ellen.. and welcome to the comments lounge! c
That tree with the snow down it’s side is interesting! There is no dull… 🙂
Love the shot of the settee – so well seen:)
Nothing about you or your life is ever remotely dull!
See how dependent we are all on you! Cheers, Donna
I know what you mean about the dull winter colors. Although, since moving to NH we’ve had way more sun than we ever get in Washington in the winters.
I had laugh when I read John’s comment. On Christmas morning I made gorgeous cinnamon rolls that I took a picture of and posted. I also made eggs that I overcooked and that tasted like mussels and shrimp from the meal I cooked in the same pan the night before. I told Tony I wasn’t going to take a picture of the entire breakfast and he said he thought I shouldn’t just always post the “perfect” pictures or meals that turned out great. The eggs still didn’t make it onto my blog, but I’m sure there’ll be plenty more failures or “gray days” in the future for us to both post about! Ha! 😉
those fellows!! c
Looks like a pretty normal winter day to me….we were driving back home through that. The grays tend to give me headaches when driving. I much prefer a bit of sun. And how fun to see a bunch of kangaroos on the beach!!!
Some people use your blog to start (or end) their day!
Sometimes dull is glorious and calming. Like this post.
I LOVE the picture of the snow on the old yellow glider swing…nothing is ever really QUITE altogether dull really, is it?
No it never is.. not really, tho i think that sometimes our eyes get dull..morning sweetie.. c
Oh sometimes one picture would be enough. (and you’d get a rest)
Love that one with the snow covered lawn glider swing. What a story there.
Speaking of story – chuckled over the kangaroos and people sharing the beach…strange friendships in the face of danger?
(catching up on reading…so moving on as advised)
