Without going into a whole whingey thing - I haven't had much spare time lately - hence lack of blogging. This week is no lighter on the schedule - I am a busy girl. Last week I went and saw the above personage in concert. ( my sister got us tickets for my birthday) OMG - I could get busy with him. Can you put that on your blog? I just did.
It came to my attention the other day that I have a shortage of red shirts. What is with that? This is the whole section of my wardrobe that is red. Quite obviously NONE of these were appropriate for the ensemble I was planning. I am hoping to rectify this situation ASAP.
I also have the following items on my shopping list
PS I am not sure that I love this Iphone camera app - photo didn;t quite work out as I had wanted. I will have to muck around with it a bit more - when I can find the time
It is 2 years today since my mum died - and she was the original bunny! We had never seen the photos that mum is featured in here until after she died. I think this is a great photo. She has written on the back of the photo - " me with a pig. I shot it" I mean you cannot argue with those words now can you. No one can really tell us where it is or even when it is, but hey I love it anyway. I also love that mum is fully rockin a navy and red dress while shooting. No wander she had strict rules for us about how to be presented when we were going out.
I miss her lots and again I would LOVE that dress for myself
Gidgee girl is sometimes soooooooooooooo cute, but then other times like when she is clawing the leather lounge not so cute.
I think I have mentioned before that I live close to the CBD of my town. This has great benefits but also some negatives - like finding it difficult to get a park out the front of our house. The other day on our way to the gym ( so early early dark still) we walked out the front gate and there were a pair of shoes and some roughed up dirt. WEIRD! What was even weirder is that later in the day they were gone. I am wandering if the rightful owner came looking for them perhaps when they weren't feeling quite so under the influence...
I sooooooooooooooooooooooo did not want to go to the gym this morning. But I did. This is at about 5.45...I had spent the previous 15 minutes mucking around...changing machines..generally avoiding doing anything. One of my gym 'friends' suggested we have a cup of tea. I don't even drink tea but hey why not - it got me off the treadmill for a little bit. In the hour we were there I did manage to do 30 minutes of exercise and work up a little bit of a sweat.
In case you are wandering about my hair - I literally got out of bed and did nothing to it - not even a thing.
I love it when you're on holidays and you can just whip a nice lunch. I have been craving this dish forever -since I had it at Giardenettos' ( which for the gluten free fans out there is an Italian restaurant that has lots of gluten free stuff - we all know that I of course do not go with this option - I'm on record as lovin me gluten) Anyway I had this beautifully simple pasta dish that was spaghetti, prawns, chili and olive oil. It was absolutely delicious. SO yesterday I made my own - sans pasta, but with prawns, calamari and fresh salmon. It did not disappoint.
You can see I am still mucking around with camera apps on my Iphone.
My friend Leesy J has been getting all crafty - which inspired me to do something myself. Can you guess what I might be making?
I already mentioned that we have a mini skip - now I know it seems like we have one all of the time - and this would make people wander WTF we throw in it all of the time. Just to clarify - we always fill it up with garden cuttings etc, but then there is the other stuff. I am constantly moving things around in the house - for example we no longer have a spare bedroom, we have a craft room. ( no one ever does Craft but that is where all of the stuff lives) Because our house is old we have a 'sleep out' style verandah. Anyone who has ever had a sleep out knows that they can quite easily become a junk yard. Ours is no different.
This post is getting quite lengthy - and I hate that! So I will cut to the chase. I sorted through a cupboard on the sleepout and found a heap of bags from our 2004/2005 trip to America. REALLY PEOPLE! These bags have been carted around the world. At the time I thought I would die if I did not bring home a Bloomingdale's Medium Brown Bag - bag. Of course they have never been used. So tomorrow they go. Now we have an empty cupboard that is going to be the new home for the CD collection.
Did you want to know all of that? I swear I am NOT a hoarder! I swear!
SO I have a few days off - and well you really need a plan don't ya? So here they are ..my plans for the next few days
I'll keep you posted on how I go with these things.
Also this photo is using an iphone app that turns your pictures into lego - cool hey.
