P365 – Day 239 – fishing days

On Monday, Slabs took Juniordwarf fishing after daycare, and Juniordwarf caught his first fish! He was very excited to show me when I got home (although he didn’t want to touch it because his hands would get dirty). We decided we’d go on a family outing to the same...

P365 – Day 205 – the scrapbooking shop is closed

Earlier this week I wrote about how Juniordwarf loves to describe the route to wherever we’re going in great detail. He does it in the car and he does it when we walk Sleepydog. Yesterday when we were out walking with Sleepydog, Juniordwarf asked if we could walk to...

P365 – Day 203 – a (brief) walk in the park

I was home again today. The doctor told me to take the rest of the week off. My work colleagues were very keen that I not come to work and share my illness with them. I haven’t been able to sleep, and am still feeling well below ordinary. Another...

P365 – Day 197 – date night (16/07/2011)

Today was a very busy one. Juniordwarf had his swimming lesson in the morning, and we went to see our friends at their lovely coffee shop for morning tea. Two Metre Tall held a mid-winter Farm Bar, so we went up there for lunch and some ale and cider,...

P365 – Day 153 going out for dinner

Neither of us felt like cooking dinner tonight, so we treated ourselves to a rare night out and went to the pub for dinner. The Bush Inn, apparently Australia’s oldestcontinuously licensed hotel...

P365 – Day 149 Deyrah Dexter

Today’s post is an unexpected set of photos for Frogpondsrock’s Sunday Selections project. This weekend was starting to look like another one of those weekends where I spent most of it moping around the house. I’ve got another cold, which seems to just be a continuation of the last...

P365 Day 121 – unexplored avenues, sunday selections and a challenge

Today’s post attempts to be three things: my picture of the day, a photo challenge and some ‘Sunday Selections’ project. First: the challenge. Earlier in the week my Twitter buddy @samedog suggested a challenge to another tweep, @wisie, who was saying he hadn’t taken many photos recently. The challenge...
