I posted this to Tumblr and thought I'd share here too. Winter came to our garden while we were away
Home is where the kitties are
We have been home from our big road trip for less than a week. It's strange to be cold after the warm humid weather we experienced for the five weeks away. But nice to wear some different clothes. Before we went away our washing machine's start button was giving us trouble and our poor house…

April come she will…
We really were blessed with some fabulous weather this April. The track pants and socks took longer than usual to make their first appearance for the year. Daylight savings time is over and the days are getting a little shorter, but the weather felt like summer right through Mid-April. It was nice, but kind of…
Mid-March update from Adelaide
Well, already it has been an eventful month and it's not quite over. Books, food, visitors, departures, music, comedy, Italian classes and work at the documentation factory. All this leaves little time for posting. I should be doing my Italian homework now, however procrastination is something I am better at than studying.Each March the Adelaide…
Another one bites the dust…book that is
So, in my last post I had a book in progress, A Cup of Light by Nicole Mones.

And suddenly it was February

But wait, there’s more…(books on my night-stand)
Two more books to add to the night-stand reading list. I was waiting for Tim Winton's Breath to come out in paperback and Roo has now bought it for me. The shop assistant could not find the last copy in stock so Roo left thinking he'd find it at another bookshop. The assistant found it…
Annual year-end review of books on the night stand
Another year is nearly over and the rotating door for books that is my night stand is sporting a lovely and mostly new crop. A few of them are travel guides recently borrowed from the library and some of them were on the night stand last year, but are at least started. Some from last…
