the star chart (and weekly check-in #2)
Let’s talk about resolutions. Well, actually, since this is my blog (and my weekly check-in) I’m going to talk about my resolutions. Or, more accurately, my commitments. I decided to call my resolutions ‘commitments’, because to me ‘resolution’ conjures up something you come up with for New Year and,...
P365 – Day 162 – purple carrots
A few weeks ago I found some purple carrots in a supermarket. Juniordwarf was quite delighted by them, and was more than happy to eat them. A victory in the battle to get him to eat vegetables! He followed this by a refusal to eat orange carrots. Only purple...
P365 – Day 161 a million little photos (10/06/2011)
On the weekend I finally finished taking photos for the Art House Cooperative‘s A Million Little Photos: Photomobile project, which I signed up to in February. I posted about this project when I received my camera in March, and then spent the best part of two months wondering what on...
P365 – Day 160 project life
I spent most of the evening putting my photos from May into my Project Life album. I still have a lot of journalling to catch up on. It’s all written down on the computer and/or on here, I just have to get myself psyched up to commit it to...
P365 – Day 159 it’s seven minutes
In the mornings Juniordwarf usually gets into our bed and lies around with us for a bit, reads a story, goes to the butty . . . Then when he’s had enough of that he looks at the clock radio and announces how many minutes it will be until...
P365 – Day 158 cooking spaghetti
Me: Juniordwarf, have you been eating the spaghetti out of the pot while I wasn’t looking? Him: No. Me: Juniordwarf, have you been eating the spaghetti out of the pot? Him: Yes . . ....
P365 – Day 157 poor neglected eMac, I haven’t seen you for a while
I worked from home again today, with the intention of turning what I’d written down last week into a document that made some kind of sense. This meant a shift from my cosy reading chair to my ergonomic OH&S-approved-by-work computer desk, upon which my 2003 eMac sits forlornly, after...
Weekly Check-in #1
Remember my post a couple of weeks ago in which I made a commitment to myself to wash up and clear off my kitchen bench every night? Well, it’s not much good making that sort of commitment unless I have a way to keep myself honest, so I made...
P365 – Day 156 tread lightly
It was World Environment Day today, and the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens held its annual TreadLightly EnviroFest. Last year was the first time I attended, and I had a wonderful day exploring all of the stalls and activities, and listening to the speakers. I learnt a lot and I...
P365 – Day 155 scrapping with the wheat paper
It’s been two weeks since I went to the 12 layouts in five hours scrapbooking class. In that time I’ve finished five pages. Today I finished my sixth. I did a lot of the layout at the scrapbooking night at our local scrapbooking shop last night and just put...
