adjusting

Still settling into some sort of routine after my trip. 2 weeks ok caught up with a good friend at Newington. A beautiful, relaxing, quiet place


Lately, I've been attempting to have a garden on my balcony. My mum has kindly given me some plants. Usually I'm terrible with plants. I've managed to kill cacti so we'll see how I go! We've had lots of rain - so pretty so far! :)

Thought I would dabble in some video-making for my trip to Jordan, Israel & Turkey. Such fun! Who knew that powerpoint allows you to convert the file to a video with just a click :)

Well, it's not really a video but a collection of photos made into a video! Here tis. Just click on the pic below for the video to play!

come fly with me

Visited the Aviation Museum in Bankstown. Such a hidden gem - collection of everything to do with planes. So much history - I even got a free tour from one of the volunteers explaining the difference between a propeller engine & a jet engine :) Considered taking flying lessons for about... a minute. Then thought otherwise!






Then some fun plane-spotting...!

mania

Love Gumtree! Scored a bargain this week. This Ikea sofa bed was a quarter of the price & still in such great condition. Now I have something better than an airbed to offer my guests. Plus I had a couple of strangers & my neighbours carry it down & up 3 flights of stairs for me! Such a random yet providential day. So worth the drive to Glebe for it :)


And more House Rules painting mania...such fun!!

Painting is so therapeutic & fun. Such a feeling of achievement in the before & after shots :)
