That's better

Inching towards Christmas

It's one of those years.  I started out well prepared but other things have got in the way and Christmas has snuck up on me.  This is as far as my decorating has got, a bit sad really.  Maybe minimalist is the way to go.

Informational art

The other day I noticed that the electricity boxes around town (don't know their formal name) are getting a makeover.  Not content with wonderful street art on some of our buildings we now have it on these as well.  What really grabbed my attention as much as the art was the message

Signs of spring

Not that you'd know it from the weather the last few weeks but today a sure sign that things are warming up.  Fog.  Heavy fog.  Cold ocean and warm air meet and ta-da, 90% humidity, chillers working overtime at work and the airport closed.

Finished

The final weaving weekend and the final piece presented.

And a closeup.

Photo-oping

My trophy count is now up to four!  Today I added the ITM Cup to my photo-op collection joining the Rugby World Cup, the Ranfurly Shield and the Melbourne Cup.

A Full weekend

It's Labour Day so we get a long weekend and so far the letter F has featured heavily.

Flax, I'm preping for my final project so this is what my living room currently looks like - festooned!

Fruit, this weekend is also my self-imposed deadline for getting Christmas cake sorted so yesterday meant fruit soaking.

and Finals!  Not only did we get to the finals this year but We Won!
