View from the [car] - It is summer here right now and it doesn't get dark until about 8:30...this week I'm on a pitch that is already looking to be manic, hence not heading home till just before the sun has fully set... See all 30 days posts here… … [Read more...]
30 days, in pictures
So, because I don't have enough on my plate these days [ahem] I have decided to chronicle the next 30 days with a picture a day. Starting 31 Jan and ending 1 March it will span 3 calendar months and, just because I like a good list [and to stop myself from taking 30 photos of flowers] this, in no particular order, is what I am going … [Read more...]
Arm-holes, A-R-M
Most trends come and go pretty quickly and I don’t tend to comment too much... [although the 80’s resurgence is overstaying it’s welcome a bit, and really, if you are old enough to have worn the stuff the first time around, tread lightly on this go.] So I snickered quietly at Jeggings last winter [you know, the leggings PRINTED with pockets, seams and a zip flap to look like jeans], rolled my eyes silently at the black canvas sneakers with black socks and dresses last summer, and just shook … [Read more...]
Happy Australia Day!
It has been the hottest Australia Day in 20 years. In the 'land of the long weekend', a mid-week-day-off-work is a good start to being patriotic!

I took these pics on Australia Day a few years ago but they still stand true, and the blue sky is pretty spot on for what today looks like! There is … [Read more...]

I had told my flatmates in Denver that I would be back in 6 months, oops... ...we found a place to live [with 10 other backpackers] - the terrace had 4 bedrooms [ours was an enclosed back porch type of thing that we took figuring that if everyone else was terrible we could just keep to ourselves, luckily there was no need to worry] - the cockroaches were regular guests, and one of the bathrooms was a separate outside … [Read more...]
What’s it all mean?
I bought a grown-up wallet the other day. Beautiful leather, fabulous lining...... ...but all grown-up due to the fact that the shape of it reminds me of every wallet my mother has ever owned and if I am buying a wallet that looks like something my mom has, it must be grown-up. It was bound to happen eventually. [Hi Mom] That said, it looks like a new wallet is inspiring some money to show up in there some time soon. [It was on sale too so that's a good start in any case.] … [Read more...]
