1 minute challenge

Hello there. Today I filled my day with writing... via doing the 60second challenge

http://oneminutewriter.blogspot.com/

go there its a fantastic site. I love it so. They have heaps of questions. Makes you think and question things. Answering them. Im glad i found that site. I will do that every day from now on. Think i will start my day like that or with a tea reading and replying to letters.

I have been drawing too. Well will make a few things be on my agenda.

okie smokies i'll be off again

talk about when thinking

I am reading Haruki Murakamis "WHat i think about when i talk about running" Its kinda inspired me to write down conversations i have with myself on a daily basis. Its funny I do have time to think about thinks. Mull them over. So subject matter of today is of course love. I have been writing them down with brackets around them.

ONE OF my thought has been this " somewhere perhaps a long time ago there was a stillness in her heart. The pin dropped and awoke the ghost of remembering that haunts her to the core"


Anyhow.. i better go got some more reading to do. His novel is inspiring.

stunning

Its absolutely stunning weather,I am enjoying the sunshine.. i must remember sunscreen or else im going to fry in the heat. So what revelation today... oh a few. I wrote the two letters..now just two more to go. I think i will stick to sending cards from now on they are a hello of a lot cheaper than letters to send overseas.

I went and picked up my picture up from the framing shop today.. it looks stunning now its cleaned and sealed and has a hook thing on the back of it. Im going to hang it in the lounge room taking my collograph down. I have to go and pick up my pictures from rosedale too.


anbyhow.. i will write more later this afternoon..

got a few things to do ish

there and back again

HAVE been away for a few days. I met up with a friend in the city.. for dinner.. went to Ants Bistro.. i ordered chili and ginger chicken. Very spicy, i started with tears down my cheeks. I had to eat nearly the whole plate full. I hadnt eaten since 2ish though so i was famished. Went back to her house and sat around watching sex and the city.Something ive never really seen before.

So the next day we were up early and went and picked up her friends dog. Its a beautiful dog though. Went to the beach..it was so damned windy..i had thermals in my bag too. We had a picnic over looking the ocean,.. had fresh fruit..blueberries, strawberries and smoked cheese (oh i love it so) .. some water. It was lovely.
I sat in the car for a bit.. drawing whilst the dog had another run along the beach.

Took sunshine (the dogs name) back to Justynas friends place.. sat around there just chatting for an hour or so.. its a beautiful house and 3 dogs they have got. The 3 dogs were so cute. Then zoomed off to see Paul and Lucy for a bbq. that was lovely. Sitting around chatting for a few hours.

So that was a great weekend. I came home on the train... a group of very chatty teenagers were there... chirpy chirpy chirpy. I juswt buried myself in a Haruki Murakami novel. It passed the 2hrs home. I am still reading it. Ive been inspired to start drawing again. I came to a few realisations..this weekend. Some i wil discuss with Alison on friday.


You know if its one thing.. i feel refreshed and renewed im glad i forced myself to go. Anyhow.. its back to these invites now.. which i wil breath and live for this week. sheessshhies.

anyhow.. just thought i'd pop a note or two on here.

ive been inspired to write again.. so ive just got two more letters to pen pals.

take care out there

Letters

I have 3 letters to reply to only i don't really feel like replying to them all. I will. Ill start with the one that came to me first..which is my German pen pal. The one who put tea bags into her letter and they were confiscated by customs! OOoops a daisy.
Oh well. Im not paying $42 to send them back to her either! They can just be destroyed.

I am very angry with this one company that took my money and have not bothered to reply to my email. ..who owe me all my craft things i ordered. I will be making a very angry phone call later.

I went back to sleep at 9ish today and woke up at 12ish... so lazy, I didnt expect to sleep 3hrs though. I knew i was tired but not that tired. Well dad is doing my chores..ive only hung out the washing. I spoke briefly to my friend who was on her lunch break.

Well I better get going now. Might watch a movie or something.

after a storm

After a storm they always say there is calm. Perhaps so. Perhaps not. There is shelter. I guess. I have been dreaming but not remembering one little bit of them. I have also been a bit down, think its just family things. That has been the storm.

Where to take refuge? Where to hide? You can only hide for so long before becoming a hermit. So i took refuge in retail therapy. Today it was plants and christmas presents.
Yes christmas.. can't avoid it. So i have about half my list done.

Its a matter of posting it all around the world. Any how.. its time for me to write some letters..i have many to reply to.


love ally
