sunday selections – fence posts
Some photos for Sunday Selections over at Frogpondsrock‘s blog. I recently blogged about how I like to get where I’m going as quickly as possible and not get held up on the way. This isn’t always true. Sometimes I think it’s fun to take a different road just to...
P365 – Day 50 – photo competition
The Bushy Park Show was on today. Earlier in the week I got an entry form for the photography competition, so I decided to enter some of my favourite shots. We go to the show every year, but today it was wet, cold and miserable and we didn’t fancy...
P365 – Day 49 dinner and ale (18/02/2011)
Tonight Juniordwarf’s grandmother stayed at our house to babysit while we went out for dinner with a group of friends. We had a great time. I especially enjoyed partaking in a couple of Two Metre Tall’s fine ales. Forester is my favourite. I’m really looking forward to the next...
P365 – Day 48 day 2, take 2
I don’t want to fill my blog with the misery of Day 2 after my long-winded report on the adventures of Day 1. I wrote another rather long post about school drop off today, but I’m not going to publish it. If you really want to read it, you...
P365 – Day 47 the first day of school
Juniordwarf got up early and put his school uniform on straight away. Usually he lounges in bed with us for as long as he can get away with, especially on daycare days, but by the time I was out of the shower he was up and dressed. I guess...
P365 – Day 46 – climbing
I thought today’s post was going to be about how I was feeling on the very last day before Juniordwarf entered the formal education system. I started to write the post as a letter to him. I wrote about how everything was going to change, I wrote about my...
P365 – Day 45 – lemon tree
We planted our lemon tree in December 2009. Slabs, Juniordwarf and I spent the best part of an afternoon transferring soil into a huge planter box from the ute in the driveway. Today while Juniordwarf and I were out in the garden, I noticed some tiny green fruit on...
P365 – Day 44 home again – sunday selections
Nothing as interesting as yesterday’s trip to the rockfields. Picture of the day is the place we stayed, the Dover Hotel Motel. According to Pubs of Tasmania, it was built in 1925 and has a number of modern additions. I rather thinkg the brick bit might be one of...
P365 – Day 43 fossicking and other stories (12/2/2011)
We thought it would be nice to have a weekend away before Juniordwarf starts school and swimming lessons next week. We decided on Dover, south of Huonville this time, because neither Slabs nor I had been there, and there were public fossicking areas near Lune River, a few km...
P365 – Day 42 new additions to my stash (11/2/2011)
My lovely family gave me some gift vouchers for our local scrapbooking shop for Xmas. I think I’ve been very restrained in still having some left six weeks later. Tonight at scrapbooking, I decided to use my voucher to buy a few things I probably wouldn’t otherwise have got....
