Day 93: Where do I start?

The main moving day, 42 degrees, it could have been worse it could've rained.

Day 92: Packing

Day 91: The clean up

That grass is long and wet. I stopped when smoke started pouring out of my poor little mower, I don't think that's supposed to happen.

Day 90: Of course I can fit all the boxes I need in one trip

There's a small boy somewhere under all those boxes, I could hear him, he was fine.

Day 89: My cars fixed!

And after weeks of rain it's the most perfect sunny day! Happy happy happy.

Day 88: Sweeping the cobwebs...

off my wheels before I took them to the mechanic.

Day 87: Celebrating in my new home

Day 86ish: Yaaaaaay!!!!!!

My poor blog has been neglected because...Yaaaay! I've moved and have been without internet but this is the day I got the keys to my new house.

Day 85: Dammit!

My car has been off the road so long it's got cobwebs, sigh.

And yeah I know I missed a few days, ya get that.

Day 84: Acting my shoe size

Oops I've missed a couple of days, oh well it's my blog so there are no stuffy rules and I'll catch up soon.

Day 83: Floating in bubbles

Day 82: And still more rain

No major drama just too much rain too fast for the drains to cope, this was about as deep as it got. It was about 20 cm's from flooding the house but uncomfortably close to flooding the car.

Day 81: Just tired

Day 80: Funky shadows

It's still raining so there's clothes hanging all over the house drying, I just love the weird shadows they cast.

Day 79: Troll

This was the only dry patch to take a break from racing bark boats with chaos but there's something nice about under bridges, peaceful, hidden, trollish.

Day 78: Another rainy day

Day77: Sick and tired...

...of always being sick and tired. I tried to remember the last time I didn't feel tired and nauseous, there was a couple of weeks in January 2007 or was it 2006, I'm not sure. Oh! there was a couple of weeks between the old neighbours from hell moving out and the new ones moving in when there was peace in my little world. I slept like a normal person and had energy, I remember laughter and neighbourhood chats, we went outside. It was nice, but that was few months ago. I really do have to figure out a way to cope better with those people.

Day 76: Not today

I don't want to take my photo today, I'm not in the mood. But having done it I must say I'm quite liking the "stigmata" lighting effect.

Day 75: Rain

Rain feels so wonderfully sensual on the skin, walking in the rain is truly one of the best simple pleasures in life.

Day 74: I love cosmetics

Day 73:

Day 72: Shadow

Day 71: Acidulated abstract

Day 70: Pretty ,shiny things

Day 69: Under southern skies

Day 68: Bus stop

Waiting to fetch Noise from the bus stop. The bus pulled in just at the end of the 30 second exposure it was perfect timing for some cool effects.

Day 67: A quiet moment

Day 66: Sadie

Day 65: A return to colour

Well I seem to have ground to a halt on the Sepia series, which is probably a good thing. So it's back to colour and the everydayness of life. And just for fun one that I took with the camera at arms length. there's nothing quite like holding a camera close and setting the flash of to do weird thing to your face, it's kinda fun.

Day 64: Cigar

Some things just make life a richer experience.

Day 63: Curves

Day 62: A little bit of bling

Day 61: Sheer

Day 60: A side of myself that I've not often seen

I've only ever glanced at the back of neck in a mirror, generally to see if my hair is OK, I haven't even done that for a long time because I've accepted that my hair will do as it will. It's interesting seeing a part of myself that other people are more familiar with than I am.

Day 59: Black strap

Hmmm I seem to be stuck in a sepia, somewhat minimalistic stage, it's quite fun.

Day 58: Touch

Day 57: Wicked eyelashes

Yeah I admit it they're fake, but fun.

Day 56: Pinstripes and lace

Day 55: Favourite shoes

Day 54: Someday my prince will come..

..and if this is him too bad, I'm done kissing frogs. He is very handsome though, he's been hanging around a couple of days. He comes at night looking dehydrated and sorry for himself and knocks on the window for us to go out and pour water on him. When he feels better he leaves. I guess he wandered too far from home during our weeks of rain and I'm not sure what to do with him. I could take him down to the creek but it gets very polluted in between rains, that wouldn't be good for him. He seems to like it here and he's friendly, I may have to dig him a pond.

Day 53: One fine day

The simple monotony of life. After two weeks of rain and more forecast for tomorrow, today was the catching up on washing day, there was no time to take a photo of anything else. It might stop raining for long enough soon to get the lawn mowed...I love rain it prevents so many boring jobs and is the perfect excuse to read instead.

Day 52: Rain, rain and more rain

Day 51: Candles

Day 50: It's nice to hide away some days

Day 49: Mums Taxi

It's cold, it's wet and it's late and I'm out picking up the teenager from whatever social event she had on tonight. I love the reflections at night when it's raining though and there was good music on the radio so it's not so bad.

Day 48: How lucky I am

Day 47: It's still raining

It's been raining for days but unfortunately it's not raining hard enough for one of those lovely pouring rain shots so this bit of a shower will have to do.

Day 46: Goodbye 2007

Hmmm yet another hand shot, this one reminds me of Thing. My New Year ritual, a pretty new journal and I start it on the 31st as a kind of debriefing of the old year. The idea is that I write all the odd little and sometimes big things that I was proud of n the past year. Often I can fill pages with that stuff but this year I don't have much to write...damn... I'll fix that next year. Bugger that sounded ominously like a resolution. Roll in 2008!

Day 45: Coastal Wind Warning

The only thing to do when there's a wind warning in place is to get out there and have a look, we're a little sheltered here in the Bay but it's still pretty wild. I think wind is my favorite kind of weather.

Day 44: Aaaahhhhh

After a day shopping in the city with Noise and Chaos this feels wonderful.
