Last day in London
Last day in London London, United Kingdom London, United Kingdom We had no plans for today. It was our last day in London so we thought we’d just see what we felt like doing on the day. We decided that we couldn’t in all good conscience stay 2 blocks...
12 of 12 December 2013
Thursday 12 December was a pretty ordinary school and work day. 1 of 12 – School bank day. 2 of 12 – Lunch order day (Thursdays we have to remember two things!) 3 of 12 – This flower caught my eye on the way to work. 4 of 12...
P365 – Day 249 – special activities
Juniordwarf loves talking about how they do ‘special activities’ at school, so somehow anything that is remotely crafty that we do at home has become a ‘special activity’ Today the Salvation Army was holding a ‘crazy crafts’ session through the Communities for Children program. That sounded like a whole...
P365 – Day 240 – some of what we did today
This morning I looked into Juniordwarf’s room and this is what I saw: He said he was lining up all the numbers. He’d obviously run out of room at the bed and had to continue the sequence under his bed. He was taking one number or one picture under...
P365 – Day 199 – a flower for mum
A couple of weeks ago I was having a moan on Twitter that I couldn’t think of anything to take photos of for this project and one of my Twitter friends suggested that I check out the Hipstamatic app. She’d been posting some really lovely photos, which were very...
P365 – Day 126 i love mum (6/5/2011)
Earlier in the week, Juniordwarf told me he’d made a flower at school. I said that sounded lovely, and asked if he was going to bring it home so I could see it. He said no. I didn’t give it much more thought, and then today when I picked...
P365 – Day 91 books
Today at lunch time I didn’t have anything I needed to do, so I headed out to the Hobart Bookshop to browse for a few minutes. I love bookshops, even though I rarely buy books these days because (1) I already have several overflowing bookshelves and (2) I don’t...
P365 – Day 88 thinking offline
Way back in January, I was looking for the perfect notebook to use as a journal/planner for this year. I’d seen a couple of things I liked, but that weren’t quite right, so I put a call out on twitter to see if anyone had any suggestions. The lovely...
P365 – Day 83 feeling kinda arty* (aka ‘on art & writing’ part 2) 24/03/2011
Part 1. Writing is a major part of my work, and has been in pretty much all of the positions that I’ve held during public service jobs in various departments, both federal and state government. But it’s not the type of writing I enjoyed as a child, so even...
P365 – Day 66 pushing papers (AKA ‘on art and writing part I’)
When we were kids, Lil Sis was recognised as the artist and I was the writer. I don’t know if this was a deliberate thing on the part of our parents, or if it just turned out that way. It seemed like her artworks were always on display in...
