Sand-ring-ham

That was a long weekend of work. Carolyn H feeling under the weather, 350+ punters, an exciting 'stanley' spotting on the H2 breeze-way, but the tils balanced and we survived.

romance of train travel

Was great to see Drew & Pup (Neil) last night before crashing into bed - it had been a long for me . Today ...Up early-ish, missed the 8:29am train into the city - just:-(. So I walked through Alma Park to Windsor station while waiting for the 9:09. Caught the 9:32 to Hurstbridge from Parliament station the piped muzik echoing along the tube was a less than inspiring way to start the day! 10:06 bus to Heide, stocked up on my favourite milk and snacks for the day and managed to get in the door my 10:20 Yah!

Be prepared

Making an emergency stop-over at Phoebes to pick up wet weather gear for the crew working the garage sale this morning at Heide.

Wash out

The good thing about waiting to get picked up at Richmond station at 6:30 am? watching the rain washing away the grime and the play of light across the road surfaces creating patterns and added to the eerie isolation.

Un-hinged

Garage sale preparation today at Heide MoMA. Bookshelves, tables, chairs, computer and black & white security monitors, electrical stuff, some back catalogue stock, funky yellow art-crates and assorted acrylic boxes. Surprisingly the bunker a little empty now the archive material has been filed and removed for storage. Anyone wanna buy a 2-ring binder? box of 6 for .50cents. Bargain time

Fast tracking

Early start with the weekly team meeting, then front-of-house and Fluffy returns from Adelaide - yah! Won't see much of the man as he's working a late - no rest for the wicked.

Power up

No spark in my step, No get-up-and-go today, missing my man and feeling a little down.

A new leaf

A lazy day off in the shade to recharge. Absent friend for a while Alan came to visit was great to catch-up. Finally got around to seeing Pans Labyrinth - WOW ! Straight to the top of my movie list . So beautiful with the magical elements balanced by the ultra realistic violence. Had the greek-boy and I immersed in conversation all the way home. If you have not seen it ... Go soon and see it on the BIG screen.

Shadows of the past

Who am i? What do you see when staring into my eyes? If your actions create your identity ...are we forever fluid? Unless there is a wrong / right way? I live in the murky grey shallows and thrive on there not being an absolute black or pure white.

Cuddle Buddy

Spent the night cuddling Barry and listening to the water falling from the sky. At last some much needed rain. My garden will be so perky!

Homeward bound

Avoided the lack of public transport issue by getting a lift home with Lesley A, air-conditioned comfort and not too much traffic. The horizon was grey and muggy - might just get that thunderstorm. Arrived to an empty house - Fluffy in Adelaide til Thurs.

Incee wincee

Huntsman on the prowl last night. Clinging to the wall for hours - waiting and watching

Hot stuff

What happened to the thunderstorms? Hot dry day - could feel the heat coming through the skylight in the store. Museum air-con perfect for a shade seeking creature like me. Almost melting on way home.

Bend your knees

Spent Friday checking off a few chores. Visited my Tax Agent - I now have an ABN. Dropped in on Paul to see his Pilates studio on Izett St. Organised and filed pix. Investigated podcasting. Cookie dropped in for a snack. Hot-cross buns on Sale at Coles already!

The Buzz

The beginning of my weekend - 2 days off in a row! Thurs - doctors appointment, blood results back - all good - no action required - Yah!. Dropped in to see Fulup just back from Tasmania. Enjoyed the view and got to try out his new coffee machine. Mmmmmm caffiene makes me perky. Did a little bit of retail therapy at Rebel new white Everlast sneakers at 40% OFF the already discounted price - Could have gone crazy alas all too small. New friend Matt dropped by for coffee in the afternoon. Is it a wonder I don't sleep some nights?

Float

A special message for Fluffy - Thankyou for being there, your strength and your understanding. Life is short and I am forever grateful to have you in my world.

Thorny

I hope everybody had a great Valentines Day. To all those amazing people in my life - No need for chocolates or flowers - just remember there is a special place in my heart for you. Love always Bruce. X

Looks promising

A warm and muggy afternoon followed by flashes in the distance with rumbling and groaning. No rain No water for my garden. Grey moody clouds full of promise but no real relief. Hope it really pours soon.

Monkey Balls

The Osage Orange grove at work is a little thirsty. The fruit is small this year about the size of golf balls.

Blu broo

Feeling blue but its all okay. A self pic from Saturday on the way home from work. Tired but that "retail" smile is still attached. A smile is like wearing a mask.
