photos, highlights, and holiday news
G'day everyone from up in the tropics of northern Australia! And the highlights just keep on coming...
I've owned a didjeridu for many years now, but rarely play it. I can make good sound but cannot circular breathe, and living in a family, etc, means you often do not have opportunities to play. Since we've been here there are didjeridus ( Read more... ) -
holiday update (and pictures)
Hi all. Life up here at the top of Australia is going pretty good right now. We've been looking around and exploring plenty of places with many highlights.
Yesterday we spent the day looking around the Litchfield National Park, which was wonderful for me, as my love of nature and hiking and such is quite all-encompassing of myself. Think about this ( Read more... ) -
First blog prompt of the month!
OK, it's the first of July here now, so I'll put out my first blog prompt of the month. Someone suggested posting one a week, and that may well be a good idea, but I may not even get to doing that! Anyway, I'll try to do at least four for the month, and this one may take a few days anyway.
The idea is to use the prompt to post something on your own ( Read more... ) -
holiday news
Hello ladies and germs.
this will be quick because the internet access we have here is good, but a little expensive. At the top end of Australia here, it is quite tropical, with temperatures sitting around 32 degrees centigrade (check the conversion, American friends) during the day, and perhaps getting down to 23-25 degrees at night. We left ( Read more... ) -
The road to hell...
...is paved with good intentions, right?
Since posting about my monthly prompts, and professing to intend to pre-make a list before the month to take off the pressure...well...guess what? I've got the original two things I wrote and that is all.
:O(
We leave for our holiday in about 3.5 days, and I've found out that the last 4 days of our holiday we ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Week in Review
Hmmm...it's been a busy week, but I reckon the best thing was that I have officially moved from going for a walk in the morning to going for a run. I've always hated running, found it boring, and being a lifetime overweight person...well, it has always been major hard work. A few years ago a person I met told me he was a running addict, and ( Read more... ) -
My daily consumption 16 June 2009
While looking at the prompts I mentioned yesterday, a few of them took my interest, and one in particular was to take stock of everything I consumed in one day. While it isn't really fair right now, as I am on an eating plan, I thought it would be particularly interesting to itemise everything. No junk food for me now, but what would you have ( Read more... ) -
maybe a month of blogging coming up...
I've been spending some time looking around at creative websites and blogs and the like AND BEEN GETTING VERY INSPIRED! A lady who is very talented had a month of blog prompts on her site for the month of March. They were all very interesting - some simple, some a bit more work, but it seemed like they could be a lot of fun.
So, I have a few of ( Read more... ) -
Another little piece of fiction (from my ficly account)
He couldn’t remember much of the accident. He remembered it had been a long day. Then he remembered the pain, and the car feeling like it was sideways. He found it weird that it was night, as he’d been driving in the afternoon. He must’ve dozed off.
The ambos told him he was in a deep crevasse, and it was still daylight. Their voices sounded ( Read more... ) -
just a quick g'day...
Hi all!
Things are still busy but I'm trying to make the effort to get in here at least once a week if I can. I hope everyone is well and happy.
I know that some of my friends here are very much into reading and writing, so I want to let you know about a couple of sites I've been hanging out at lately.
One that I recently mentioned to you was http ( Read more... )
