Necessity

Wednesday 26 August 2015

I wonder how many times I have said (or have overheard) the phrase: I need a holiday. In all honesty, I don’t think the saying has ever rung truer for me at the moment. I’m hanging on by a thread here. I’m dreaming of sun-kissed shoulders, wide brimmed sun hats, drinks with little cocktail umbrellas, the sounds of the sea lapping at rocks… getting a bit carried away here. My next getaway is not for a while yet so join me while I take a little virtual trip to Mykonos, specifically the San Giorgio Hotel. You can thank me later.

A Quintessential Aussie Weekend

Monday 24 August 2015

I’ve been slowly working through my list of goals for 2015 – admittedly, my success rate has not been great (and it’s already nearly September). But there is still time for them to be realised. In the meantime, I am one step closer by spotting a wombat on a recent trip to the South Coast. We stopped by a spot they are known to frolic, and there he was, a lone wombat munching on the grass in broad daylight. He was very patient and posed for numerous photos.

The Great Portrait Debate

Wednesday 19 August 2015

Jordan and I are having a difference of opinion. This is not uncommon, but his view on the matter is quite firm – the matter being that I would like a stately portrait, to hang possibly in the hallway or the living room. Some important so and so from another time, maybe with rosy cheeks and a strong nose will lord over the house and introduce some much needed colour and character. Jordan thinks this is ridiculous and creepy and will not budge on his hatred of the idea, no matter how many images of its successful execution I shove at him.

Personally, I think he is still traumatised by this portrait (scroll all the way to the bottom, she is a creep).
