...in September (albeit a day late).


I realised that Summer is coming.



Strawberry eating and sandal wearing commenced.




We said goodbye to our old house and moved into our new home.


I started nesting (but the boxes are still not all unpacked).


We had a games night with some friends.


Some fun collaging was done.



I made my cats wear a hat and one became quite taken with a basket.


I made a whole bunch of woodcuts.



And on the very last day of September, C and I took a day trip to see the last of the snow for the year. C wanted to make a massive snowman, but found it very tiring work. I feel lucky to have snow AND beaches about an hour away.

I watched: Love My Way, Puberty Blues, Scrubs, The Hairy Bird, Downton Abbey.
I listened to: The new Clare Bowditch and Ben Folds Five albums (both great).
I consumed: Mandarin, apple and passionfruit juice, sour peach hearts and French vanilla almonds.
I made: Woodcuts, collages and postcards.

Today the internet got switched on at our new house. Now it feels like a real home ;)
For the past week or two I've been slowly unpacking and arranging items, driving around in my in-law's Jeep that they've lent us while they're away for a month and a half, reading totally engrossing, really trashy books, making collages, watching some new favourite shows and being a slave to uni and work. I only have a couple more weeks of uni left. I can't believe this year is almost wrapped up.
Anyway, just wanted to say hi.

Here's a little self portrait I've been playing with tonight - it's a bit rough around the edges but it's time for bed, so I'm calling it a day. Forgive my absence for the next week or two while we wait (im)patiently for the internet to be connected at our new abode. In the meantime I'll be arranging my knick knacks, making collages and admiring the city lights from my verandah. See you soon!
