who’s out there? a friend or a stranger?

i have had a few spikes in hits recently, i wonder if my page was one of the random ones shown on the wordpress homepage, or if someone has remembered this exists..!?

well, it’s been a while and i have been busy with lots of things.

working here: http://www.cdu.edu.au/businessdevelopment/ 

and volunteering as treasurer here : http://ywcaofdarwin.org.au/cms/

trying to promote sustainable living in Darwin here : http://www.topendtransition.groupsite.com/main/summary

and trying to help the founder of this, but not providing much guidance here : http://www.quest2025.net/about/index.html 

i am living here:

 

which is right near here:

and am currently addicted to this:

i also intend to get our Monthly Monthly meetings back off the ground sometime soon, where we drink wine, eat cheese and talk about the cool articles in this: www.themonthly.com.au/ 

life is generally good.

# i dare you to look at these pictures and not have a little heart explosion of love

 

i’d completely forgotten i had a blog until i found my dear friend Rob’s blog which had a link to mine…. which seemed incredibly mundane in comparison!!

however, i noticed that there have been some recent visits to the site, to my surprise. so i felt a  little obliged to write something…! i am also procrastinating at work in a serious manner – hence why i was at Rob’s blog in the first place. hoo dear. SO much to do, so little ticked off the list today.

my exciting news is easily dot pointed:

- Matilda learnt to swim last week. woo hoo! still with the floaty vest on, but it wont be long now, and

- James passed his recent batch of tests. no more for 6 months which is very very cool.

 

so whoever you are, you’d beter come back because i’ve written something now.

and Merry Christmas too. am not feeling overly festive but am very much looking forward to my holidays. and doing absolutely stuff all on them. love it!
