The first month of a new decade. That’s quite a bit of pressure, January. You poor thing.
- The first day of the new year. And decade. I’m on that team. Started as I meant to continue. Pottering, decluttering, standing my ground and yes … going to Ikea.
- I wrote today’s date correctly first go. And then, dear reader, the day went down hill from there.
- It’s only the third day of the year and I have found my voice and it has been heard.
- Thank you, Celeste.
For using your influence and popularity as a comedian and social media star for good. You’ve harnessed the generosity and compassion of our nation and the world to raise over 10 million dollars for bushfire relief. - I’ve already fallen victim to the great Australian tradition of Hot Cross Buns in January. They were on sale, though!
- The air was heavenly after the rain this morning. I was beginning to forget that earthy freshness that is so invigorating. It’s not just a scent. It’s a total body experience.
- I work with some incredibly kind, united and supportive people. I am grateful today, as always, for their reassuring presence in my life.
- ‘Where your thoughts and energy go, your life will follow’. My thought for the day. And for life.
- You know that feeling of pure relief when a day goes much better than you feared it might? That’s what today was proudly sponsored by.
- It’s Friday and all the loose ends have been tied.
- Who knew trimming my wisteria hedge could be so cathartic? Can’t stop looking out the window at my handiwork.
- A leisurely stroll though Daiso saw me leave with a Knitting Nancy (among other things) and the discovery of a new hobby. Knitting!
- Still knitting.
- Ran, knitted, got my hair done and knitted some more.
- Rain. That sweet, sweet rain. The whole state is ecstatic!!
- Pilates is exhausting. But fun.
- Last Friday at work before some annual leave. They always fly by in a flurry of typing.
- Work. Rain. Work. Rain. Give me strength.
- Out. Of. Office.
- On. The. Plane.
- Aunty duty days are the best days.
- Perth, you are gorgeous.
- A day in Fremantle isn’t complete without a stop at Cicerello’s for fish and chips.
- Scitech. We always have so much fun here. Second time we’ve been here this week.
- Gong Xi Fa Cai. Welcoming in the year of the rat with a dragon dance.
- Australia Day fireworks. Always more special when you get to see them in your home city.
- Bye, Perth. Until next time.
- Oh, the Sydney summer humidity.
It always hits me hard after the dryness of Perth’s heat. In a less positive way than my tomato seedling and backyard lawn……
- First day of school. We’re so organized that the parents’ WhatsApp was up and running before midday too.
- First day back at work.
The perfect reason to treat myself with a McCafe iced latte.
- The freezer is full of ice cubes and Zooper Doopers while the fridge is full of every conceivable cool drink a person could need. We are ready for this weekend’s heat wave!
