| From the Harbour Bridge on our walk |
Looking: Forward to visiting the Art Gallery for the Van Gogh after a wedding in Canberra.
Wasting: Time. So much time. I seem to get very little done at the moment. Not entirely sure why.
Wishing: I would write my story for the Grieve competition. I'm fast running out of time and STILL no ideas...it's never usually this hard.
Liking: Going for a 16km walk & talk with friends last weekend, and another on the Bay run with someone today.
Loving: That Handmaid's Tale is back!
Hoping: Youngest's enthusiasm for the clubs and activities at High School continues....I know teens often let great opportunities slide past. Enjoying her excitement.
Needing: To get focused and organised. Becoming so inefficient at the moment.
Smelling: Roses on my dog walks - leaning in over fences to enjoy the fragrance.
Wearing: Jackets - it's getting chilly out there!
Feeling: Tired and run down. Not sure why.
Delighted: To have had so many catch ups with friends since school went back.
Going: To Spanish Film Festival, a comedy, which I hope will be good after the very depressing Supanova.
Helping: Trying to find out what we can do to help the people in India. What a nightmare.
Staying: In Canberra this weekend for a wedding.
Indulging: Myself with a little time at the spa to read my book!
Happy: To be getting back into the city a bit more for dinners and shows.
I'm just about to start Debra Oswald's book, have heard good things. Lots of good stiff going on in your Taking Stock, and I agree laughter is so uplifting, we all need to do more of it. #lifethisweek
ReplyDeleteI've heard good things about Debra Oswald's book. I loved your Canberra pics too on the 'gram. Glad you're getting out and about more & loving everything on offer.
ReplyDeleteOh Lydia, I bookmark so many writing competitions and challenges and never enter. Every so often I have to go through my tabs and delete all of the ones that have expired and I feel guilty every time I do it. I love that you're entering some - that's great.
ReplyDeleteI saw Leanne's (Deep Fried Fruit) pics of the exhibition at the art gallery. It looks amazing.
Enjoy your weekend away and the wedding. You have so many beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteI have Debra Oswald's book on my shelf. I was in Canberra last week - the Bottecelli to Van Gogh exhibition was really good! Enjoy Canberra! Loving all the Sydney shots too :) Good luck with the Grieve comp. And about India, yeah, it's awful and scary at the moment. My parents are there and they tested positive last week but fortunately, are stable having been vaccinated and having the ability to isolate.
ReplyDeleteI hope they recover fast. Heard a pretty scary story about someone how had it mildly here (slight cold) and then had some brain function issues about 6 weeks later and got a scan and it had damaged their brain and there is a doctor treating a few others like that with Stem cells here (experimental) so make sure they get any changes checked out, even if they appear unrelated. Hopefully the vax protects them tho! How stressful for you.
DeleteI love Canberra and can't wait to go back. I too wonder where all "this" is going to end. It's so weird living a "normal" life here, it's hard to comprehend how hard people are doing it in other countries. And I too am woefully unproductive these days, the only thing I'm really good at is wasting time!
ReplyDeleteIt's a weird thing. I'm sure it's somehow related tho.
DeleteGreat photos and I love reading through these Taking Stock posts. Enjoy your visit to Canberra and I have major envy over visiting the Canberra Art Gallery & seeing the Van Gogh exhibit. I wonder if the world will ever be normal again. I think it won't ... but perhaps a new kind of normal at least. Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYou are getting out and about and that makes me happy seeing you in your natural environment. I am going to Canberra next month but can't share why yet. My first trip away and to the capital since 2013.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking up for #lifethisweek. I am always grateful to see your blog post there. Next week my guest poster is ready to comment...I have done one training session with him...and I will be there too. Cheers, Denyse.
ooooh. Sounds exciting!

ReplyDeleteWhat a fab round up post of moments. It's filled with so much joy that I couldn't help but smile. Good luck with the writing competition. I always find that ideas come more easily when I'm not trying to find them. Thank you for joining us for #mischiefandmemories
ReplyDeleteMy to do list seems to be getting longer and it takes so much effort to get anything done! Hoping for normality soon... Thanks for linking up with #MischiefAndMemories
ReplyDeleteWow you look like you have been doing so many cool things! Keep them coming :) Thanks for linking up to #ForTheLoveOfBlog x
ReplyDeleteLoved this so much! I know that feeling of so much to do and not enough time or ideas to implement. Is the Handmaid Tale really back? OMG I missed that memo!!! xx #MischiefAndMemories
