Life as we know it.......

Really Feb is the last point I said Hi!

Photos: Where I am at with the new project/ pretty colours; High tea at craft weekend; my first wheel; Birthday cake (not mine); the gorgeous boy.

Sunday Morning Breakfast......

Well coffee at least :-).

Work diaries and identity crises

We get a generic batch of diaries at work. Which for my boss and I means that we are constantly trying to abscond with each others diaries. I found a half used sticker sheet in my desk drawer today and did some decorating. The stickers were from a newsagent somewhere and the pens are Moonlight something from Japan - I've seen the same ones on the jet pen website. I'm not sure how well either the stickers or the pens will hold up but for now it is cute and distinctive.

New Projects.....

..... Pretty Colours.

Back to work - hi ho, hi ho

The first day back at work for 2013 has ended and the train is winding it's way home. I'm busy trying to organise 2013 in my diary. I'm using the moleskin monthly diaries again to journal and have the monthly planner to keep everything organized and stop me from having to write everything anew in the next month of the journal.

I'm also making another attempt at reading The Lord of the Rings trilogy as a New Years Resolution/challenge. I'm still debating whether I can claim it as 6 books on my reading list as the version I have is divided into 6 bits... Possibly pushing the envelope a little there.

Happy New Year! Welcome to 2013

The beginning of a New Year.
Its so beautiful in it's optimistic newness and exciting new adventures.

I've been cleaning and organizing in preparation for 2013 and in the process found this old notepad of my grandmothers. I loved the women's silhouette, especially as I have just finished watching Downton Abbey season 3. The price tag was also a trip down memory lane - I had completely forgotten about tuckerbag supermarkets which disappeared as we moved into a supermarket monopoly in Victoria (which is being challenged thankfully).

Now I am off to consider some New Years Resolutions for 2013 and see if I reached any in 2012.

Summer Storm

The Friday before last we has a huge thunderstorm which we luckily escaped with no major damage. Except for one poor tree.

It was probably the first time that Darwin's I'm totally innocent face was true.
