All About Eve…
I’m having a slow day today. A bit of a house tidy up, and a good forensic scrub of the kitchen in preparation for Christmas meal preparation. It’s been a few years since I attempted a traditional Christmas, even pre pandemic I wasn’t great at it. So this year I’m taking a small run at…

Might Just Lie Down (again)…
Anyone else starting to feel a bit worn out by things? No? Just me then. Maybe I took the whole last couple of years to personally, that whole pandemic, crap health, poor choices, dying relatives thing has slightly dampened my enthusiasm for life, and the impending Christmas shenanigans in less than a week aren’t helping.…

Stranger than Fiction…
Over the past two years I’ve decimated my library. This 90% reduction has come about by mostly getting rid of all fiction books, which made sense when I realized I rarely reread fiction. So I’ve gone from 1000s of books to 100s, and the hundreds are mostly reference books, because I revisit art,design, craft etc…

Dates matter, the days they fall on not so much. My calendar is filled with little markers on the numbers, I rarely even notice if it has a little F or W above…

Before Winter…

I want that quintessential Australian boxing day vibe, sitting around listening to a sportsball game on the wireless, drinking cold beverages, while the youngsters play totem tennis and destroy the lawn with the slip n slide. But at the moment I’m mostly just looking…

It’s Not My Fault…
I’m great at procrastinating, but terrible at relaxing. And that seems really unfair, I could live with not getting something done if I could enjoy not doing it. At the moment I’m blaming all lack of progress today on people not showing up to buy my sofa. If the people had showed up a 9am…

Now Swallow!
Another day another test. It’s amazing the list of things you can find wrong with you, that aren’t actually the things causing the problems you were worried about. Anyway blessed be the public health care system and all who make her work. I’ll toast you all with this gritty cup of mint flavored goop.
