Day 29....Something You Listen To...


I love Sports Radio....I listen to SEN in the car on the way to work....and now that AFL Football season is just about here, the radio will be on most weekends....as I'm usually knitting I find that listening is easier than watching....although if the TV is on, I tend to just listen to it rather than watch.

Apologies for no Day 28....the topic was Money....thought it was boring and who likes to talk about money....not me!!
































That's it for February Photo a Day....I won't be joining in on March, so normal blogging will return.


thanks

Day 27....Something I Ate.



Lunch today.....I'm home from work due to car problems, and a case of getting soaked by torrential rain whilst attempting to get to work with no car....but that is a whole other story. 

So lunch....chick peas, white beans, radish, celery, beans, avocado and a can of Italian tuna in olive oil....all mixed together.....and a touch of lemon juice....it may not look much but it was delicious.

Day 26......Night



Night has fallen and the street light that is in the backstreet behind my apartment is on.....it's 8.36pm and the cool change has come in after 3 really hot days....the rain has started which will only make things muggy and humid....but any change is a welcome relief.

Day 25........Green



My favourite colour is green....Laneway with Virginia Creeper.  This laneway is just behind where I live, the colour of the creeper changes according to the seasons....This photo was taken a couple of weeks back on a walk, but I passed it early this morning on my way to buy some milk and there was the slightest hint of red appearing....I think Autumn is just around the corner....although it's going to be a stinking hot 38c in Melbourne today....first really hot day since January!!

Day 24....Inside My Bathroom Cabinet



I love to indulge in good skincare....if it's good enough for Cate, then it's good enough for me.  My bathroom cabinet stocked with SKII goodies....best thing I did for my skin was changing over to this treatment....expensive but worth every cent.  Amongst other goodies...I spread my skincare across, The Body Shop, Aesop and Proactiv....and I have a stash of Chanel perfume up the back, No 19, No 5 and Coco...makeup it's Laura Mercier and Clinique.....and I didn't photograph the bottom of the cabinet, because toothpaste, deodorant and shower gel aren't really that exciting!!

Day 23.....Your Shoes


I really couldn't decide here.....I have spent all my non work time in my absolute favourites sandals....Saltwater Sandals....I do wear them a lot.  The other addiction I do have is to boots.  Living in Melbourne, we have a lot of boot time....my favourites, Aubergine Riding Boots by Boden....they are a few years old, and I'm kicking myself I never purchased the olive green!

Day 22....Where I Work



Well I could show you a picture of a big square 10 storey building, which is my full time day job....but as far as I'm concerned this is where I work....Excuse the mess!!  I normally clean up after myself most nights, but things have gotten a little untidy of late.

dover & madden is the job I love so therefor this is where I work....sofa facing the TV.....Hopefully I can make it more of a full time reality sooner rather than later, but that's probably a whole new blog post!!

Day 21....A Fave Photo Of Me.....



I hate having my photo taken.....but if I had to come up with a favourite photo of me, this is probably it.  Taken by a work colleague when she was trying to get me to act natural for a photo she had to put on the company website....I had just gotten back from a long overseas holiday,  I was rested and relaxed,  I was happy in my job, happy in life.....If only we could turn back time!!

Day 20......Handwriting



I used to love writing....now I just find it slow and laborious.....and I guess it is one of those things the less you use it the harder it gets....although there is always something nice about a hand written note.

Day 19......Something I Hate To Do....



Something I really hate to do is my business accounts....although I now have a system in place that allows me to spend about 5 minutes a night keeping track of everything....I must admit things are on the slide, and here lies January's receipts awaiting accountability!!




























Taken 7.18pm 19th February 2012

Day 18......Drink



My favourite drink is tea.....milk and no sugar.  Milk must go in first, and as much as I love loose leaf tea, I will use teabags, but I always use a tea pot....tea just tastes so much better made in a pot.

Day 11..... Makes You Happy



Apart from the obvious things that makes me happy, family, friends, knitting ......One thing that I just love is freshly laundered bed linen, fresh from a service wash....it's the simple things in life that sometimes put a bigger smile on my face.






























Taken December 24th 2011.

Day 9........Front Door



I very rarely use my front door....so here is my back door instead.  I  live in an older style apartment that has a door directly outside rather than going into a foyer or a stair well (that's the front door)....so this is the reason why I love my back door....and I love sitting on the back step with a cup of tea, catching the sun and watching the world go by.
