This is What Becomes of Us...

this ones for weasel

I took this photo whilst on holiday in Terrigal NSW...I actually went on a holiday!
I swam every morning in the sea and love love loved it.
I would dive down under that first wave and the feeling of that cold water on my 'just out of bed' skin would have me squealing with absolute ecstasy as I broke the waters surface on the other side. Fan - flipping - tastic.

Blogger is pooping itself with all the BIG images I have just tried to upload so I will add them later.

I must go now as I have to:

• Reformat a specification document and insert a table of contents (easy)
• do spreadsheet templates
• create a visual organisational structure thingy
• investigate vaccinations required and find the cheapest flight to London for 29 November
• create a skills audit for people that I feel really just need counselling
• think of ways that a truck manufacturing company could reduce their carbon footprint

So as you see it is all just so exciting....pffft....This is my life at the moment.

I love you all so so much and I am sending you all a big squishy hug...can you feel it? I hope that you can.

Follow Me Don't Follow Me.

8.50 am


· It is interesting watching different people deal with someone that wants to argue, I was the one walking out of the room into another part of the house...within 5 minutes everyone was hiding with me and we laughed.

· My daughter is leaving to visit her father’s family in Western Australia. I am afraid that she will never come back.

· During my holidays all I did was look at real estate and now I am dreaming about floor plans.

· I have been tempted to return to the dark side.

· I am typing this list when I should be doing homework, laundry, drying my hair and making myself a coffee.

· My graphics tablet is not working and I cannot re install the software that would fix it, as it is buried and locked away with all my other junk at a storage unit in Camperdown.I hate storage.

· I am bored and need something, anything to happen.

· I am sick of looking at 1 bedroom flats and wish I could look at 2 bedroom houses (with a little garden would be perfect).

· My list is all complaints so far BUT my neck hurts, sorry.

· I am thankful for the friends and family that I have around me they make me laugh, give advice and they tell you that you are looking good and doing well and these are things I REALLY need to hear right now.

· I had a nice weekend with Ben, Amanda and Lili... We walked, talked and had lunch together which was lovely.

· I think I should stop writing this list as all I can think of now is more negative crap and my brain has stopped working.

I need to find my nest.

I have become numb with it all and it is all nothing.

Another Semester Finished.

Well, here I sit having finished all the exams and work required...what will I do with my time for the next three weeks?
I will promise myself that I will draw.
I will vow to carry my sketch book and camera around with me everywhere looking for and seizing upon those moments of inspiration...I will, I will.
I will also over indulge on facebook and blogger, I will stalk Bulldog like I used to and send messages to my favorite Weasel.
I will visit my daughter and play with my granddaughter...Oh joy.
I will read newspapers and drink coffee.
I will wish I had more money but be glad that I don't.
I will think about old friends and wonder what people are up too these days.
I will love and be loved.
I will eat the forbidden donut (10 points to anyone that knows where that line comes from)

I will be uplifted by the everyday.
You are most welcome to join me.

Steer Clear of Water Fowl

Beware...they are on their way to a pond near you!

I have a friend who, when hearing about swine flu from a taxi driver with a thick accent, believed that it was called Swan Flu he even went so far as to talk to the driver of how people must be very worried in Western Australia and that Centennial Park must be in lock down (due to the large number of swans) In the end the driver could take no more and explained in a very slow voice that he believed that my friend was not understanding him, he then said ‘SWAN, SWAN, SWAN you know PIG!’ My friend ( who is quite smart but was suffering from jet lag) reached his destination. As the taxi departed he stood on the side of the road for a minute...it was then he realised what had just happened...and I have been telling his story and rubbing it in and laughing ever since...SWAN FLU ha ha ha ha ha what an idiot

Thinking About What To Draw...

I had to black out the address as I am sure my brother does not want you all to write or visit.
I, on the other hand, would love it.

With Birds I Share This Lonely View.

I have been very quiet haven't I? I have been busy with three days at college and all that goes along with that. Today I am studying for my bookkeeping assessment...I'm trying to make bookkeeping fun...TRYING! 'Leave loading' and 'tax withholding' are such fun things and lets not even start on the hilarity of tax tables or I may just pee myself a little.

Let's see what has been going on...my grand daughter is now almost 5 months old and she thinks that I am hilarious, she is just super dooper what more can I say.






I have been trying to avoid the 'ines' ie: nicotine, caffeine, morphine etc....just thought I'd share that with you all.

It has been raining for days and days and as I type this it is bucketing down outside....If this keeps up our fashions by the end of the week will be just FAB...I'm already running out of socks and jocks...that's me sharing again.



I have a nice big desk set up in my room and a groovy pin board that I am, I fear, a little toooo excited about.

One of my teachers said that she thought that I was a perfectionist, It was like she was informing me of some terminal illness, she even did the 'tisk' sound...I think that I can rise above these sorts of comments but this one has me wondering and reviewing my life and my shortfalls...It has made me think toooo much and this is not always a good thing for me.

It has stopped me from drawing as now I feel that the reason I could not draw for so long was because I was a perfectionist and why draw if it is not going to be perfect...ahhhhh

This is where my head has been for a while now.

Pfffffft Oh well thats about all for now except that I did want to say that one day I will have a groovy warehouse conversion and you can all come and stay with me when you are in Sydney on holidays or when fleeing from justice which ever comes first.


You are all just such beautiful people and I'm sending each and everyone of you a big squeezy hug....can you feel it?



byeeeee

The Brilliant and the Dark.

We were sitting outside on the steps, in our street, talking, when a homeless guy walked by pushing a pram all loaded up with plastic bags full of little bits of rubbish, food wrappers, crushed cans and stuff.

As we watched him walk by I told Ben of how I had seen him before and that he cleaned up the garden beds in the little park nearby and how I wondered why he collected these things and Ben said-

"He's building a nest."

My mind raced. What a beautiful thing to imagine.

Where is the nest?

How big must it be?

How amazing it must look.

In my mind it is big and colourful from all the wrappers and bags he has woven into it, it is at least the size of Big Birds nest and it is so warm and cosy....I want one.

Feeling like a Zombie and Unable to Post.

Do not get excited, I know you are, I still have no internet but next week I will be looking after a cat and the cat's internet connected home so I will have internet FOR 40 days. Mua-ah-ahhhhh.

But really it's all about the cat...honestly..it is.
