Joey Joey the weirdy weirdster. I would want a little or big sibling for her this year. Just so she can be a bit more chilled out. Two dogs is almost always better than one, so I’ve found.

So of course Johnny is playing #Om music loudly to keep in with the rootsy vibe of Christmas.

I’ve gone a bit #cottagecore this year.
Someone gave me a beautiful native flower bouquet which I have dried and re-mounted to fit the door.
Held together with skewers and foam and cotton and good wishes.

Isn't it though? Just add to that the reality that I've stopped taking one of my mood altering 'mummy little helpers', and want to burst into tears every time I hear a Christmas song? Having a great time 🥺😁😢😖

I'm at a dog park out of town- it is usually so covered in dog poo. I was dreading coming here, but it looks like it's all been vacuumed up?
Because how else would you pick up half a tonne of dog poo?

A new life of figuring out when to eat- ATM brekkie=main meal
Every evening I fall in a bit of a hole because I don’t feel like food & I don’t want to cook.
So, my routine at the moment is to do a bit of food prep during the week, roasted veggies, salads, roasts & dishes that I can eat hot or cold.

While making dinner last night I threw these together, because I didn’t have gardiniere and it goes in the Muffuletta apparently.
I have made muffuletta before, but had no idea it was a New Orleans- Sicilian thing.
Anyway, the veges taste AMazing.

Got up at dawn in the beautiful cool air to water things before the day gets warm .
I’m roasting a mammoth amount of Mediterranean vegetables so I can make some muffuletta sandwiches for these damn heatwave social events over the weekend.
The house smells pretty good though.

I too, saw the moon.

Excuse me but what the hell has happened to the price of fruit and veges lately?

Will note today as the "Best Wednesday in Sydney, ever."
Spent a delicious few hours strolling & relishing the Botanic Gardens, finishing up at #BotanicHouse, as you do, with a dear bestie.
I told her "I just want to walk around under some fig trees" & Sydney delivered.

@nancycato.bsky.social thinking of you Nancy on your Birthday. I hope it's a warm, lovely one, filled with bubbles and laughs with dear ones.

Someone in my town is selling their entire collection of toy soldiers. advertising on private group.
Let me know if you are interested in any of it and I’ll see what I can do to put you in touch.

Incredible proud of my memory access to make saté chicken kabobs from scratch, without a recipe.
So Good.

It's taken far too long to get back in the pool this year.
Christening a new sun safe outfit.

Backyard views. Completely blue sky to the south east at that time. I think we may have done with away with cloud & storms for now.

#MidsummerNightsDream was really beautiful yesterday. I had some coffee to make sure I didn’t fall asleep halfway through.
For a small town Shakespearean production, I felt like I was being treated to something really special.
I love witnessing talent at this basic, exquisite level.

Two girl dogs that don’t know how to be friendly- sharing a bed.
I feel like we’re rehabbing the little one. Teaching her to be in a pack.

I walked outside and my baby star jasmine has such powerful scent. And all Johnny can smell is our giant coriander ( I’m letting this one go to seed).

The little visitor dog & I get up just before dawn to do a spot of gardening before the day gets warm. I’m now drinking coffee and cutting all the elastic out of old undies to tie up my tomatoes. I’m cranky about this because they were nice knickers but I got too skinny for them.

I was going to be at an art show opening this evening and I really feel like crap.
I need to look all pretty and everything and I've got a headache...
Crook in the guts...
I look like Robert Smith with a hangover.

Friend of my husband's had a son get married yesterday and I get to keep this.
Pretty bloody stoked- look at the colours in it.
Christmas wreath: sorted.

everything is going crazy and I'm terrified I'm double booked for things ( or worse). There's too many events on at the moment.
At least I've gotten one more AGM out of the way...
(Dog is the amazing 17 yr old 'Ben'.)

Looking at this ensemble pulling up outside the rental across the road- wondering whether or not they're going to clean the carpets or are we going to have a racing car team living across the road?
