Kiss

She knows her stuff...go take a look.

I'm an old dog & I was pretty happy with my own floss separating technique but I've employed this technique solely for my latest embroidery. I'm a convert.

Inside Running 002

I spent a lot of time thinking about how far I'd run & how far I had to run to get home.

Inside Running

I know I've talked a bit about the run & the "zone" & the ideas.

This year I'm trying to keep a log book of the run. I'm scribbling things down as soon as I get home...just for my own interest really. I'm keen to follow the Hansel & Gretel trail from first idea through a few runs & finally see it begin (or maybe not). I'm going to photograph it each day & either post here or on Flickr.

So on today's run I thought a LOT about the laptop stand I'm building in my head & then later today I gathered a few bits & pieces from around the house to start work.

Other random thoughts included floor rugs, sink mats, texture, geometric doodles I used to do in Primary School.

I'm brainstorming ways to make our full-of-potential courtyard user friendly until we have some cash & thought maybe I might make a huge hessian "quilt" for it.

Lazy feet

We're home...it feels good.

I love Melbourne in January.
There's nobody around.
Lawns are long & littered with dandelions.
No place to be at no particular time.

I'm struggling to drag my lazy holiday self into action so I think I'll watch from the sidelines for a couple of days.

Looking forward to catching up on your news.

PS...just noticed that my back of 09 post was my 1000th post - that's a LOT of drivel. Thanks for hanging around. xx

No turning back

and looking forward to a clean slate filled with promise.

Happy New Year to you all.
Thanks for making the kootoyoo year a great one & for making me want to try harder.

To my lovely mates who've been spanked with the 2009 cactus (& I know there were many of you)...

The best way out is always through.

You've made it! May 2010 be filled with good stuff. xxx

Snooze

Everything is just so super slow & snoozy.

I can't seem to wake up. Wondering if it's just a lovely end to a full on year or if maybe it's lack of iron...

The Date made capiroska are certainly a contributing factor.

PS: Thanks lovely folk for offering encouraging words on the little rejig in this space. xxx
