Photo a Day Challenge - Day 54 Inside Your Bathroom Cabinet

Ok, for the keen eyes around, you might see something a littler weird in this pic, I don't care as I still need to clean it out, but I've selectively shot this photo this way because of it!!

--------------------

Tonight, I went and saw the movie 'Gone', which was a thriller (of sorts), and the movie was ok. There was some instances that were somewhat questionable as to its 'realism', but in all, a good movie. If you've NOT seen it yet, I would wait for the DVD version and see it that way, as I was a little let down...

--------------------

In late breaking news, my best mate B and his wife K, announced the safe arrival of baby J, a younger brother to B & S. Well done guys, I am so happy for you!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 53 Your Shoes

This is a somewhat rare shot, not of my shoes, but of my cat Jasmine sitting at my feet!!! She normally doesn't want to be anywhere NEAR me (she was more of L's cat) unless she wants something, which is generally food!!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 51 A Fave Photo of You

I don't really have a 'have' photo, and I simply DONT take a good photo, so it has taken some time to find one I like...

It is the day of our wedding, December 17 2000... The photographer actually made us look INTO the sun for the shot, at the time, I hated it, but I can now see where/what he was after...


Wedding Day

Today, a few friends and I went for a trip to Adelaide, just for the day, to have lunch. It was a great day, we drove out to Hahndorf, and then had lunch at the Glenelg Beach. I had the Salt 'n' Pepper Squid which was FANTASTIC!!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 50 Handwriting

Today, was a somewhat traumatic day in that the toothache from the weekend, got worse! I called my dentist on my way to work, knowing FULL well they would not be there, but it was just a message service and I had to call back after 8am. So I proceeded into work.

After I arrived, it wasn't too long a wait, when I called, I was given the first time slot, 8.30! I left straight away, and I was there in around 10-12 minutes, which in morning peak, wasn't a bad feat!

Anyways, cutting a long story short, I had two bouts of root canal on the day, some 6 hours apart, and it is now better. I DO have to go back Wednesday week and then the following week though for a fix and a crown respectively!

--------------------

But, today its all about handwriting, right? Well here is a sample of mine, from a meeting, where I was making my own notes from it. Its not very neat, I was hurrying after all, but, its my hand...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 49 Something you hate to do

Sunday was spent, cleaning, gardening, using the pressure cleaner (again) on the back veranda, and I also did the front path that leads up to the front door, which is actually on the SIDE of the house! But, I digress...

But, the 'something you hate to do' is weeding, but I don't have a photo of me weeding as how can I get a photo of me doing something when theres just me?

BUT, what I can show you is of the back veranda all clean, and good looking all the same!


Back Verandah Dinning Lounge

--------------------

I have had an ACHING tooth for the last couple of days, so I think it will be back to the dentist in the morning sometime! I had a filling a couple of months back, so I hope its not that playing up, as he said at the time, it was a difficult one to do...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 48 Drink

Tonight, I actually thought about WHAT I wanted to do, and HOW I was going to do it! It just took a little while to get it all sorted!

I originally thought just a simple setup on the kitchen bench, but when I got that shot, it was not quite right. So I started to think where I might find some black things for a background! I eventually found a black tee-shirt, and whilst not right, it was adequate for the purpose. Anyway, here is a shot of the setup


Drink Setup

Now I got a few shots first with the glass empty, and when satisfied, I got the ice and bourbon ready, and here is the result. I kinda like it for a quick setup, using limited resources!


Drink in Murano Glass

--------------------

I also managed to get some photos of other things today, Bronty is coming along nicely, and a Crocus, Callistemon as well.

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 47 Time

This is a screen shot, of yes the time, but also an artist I'm loving at the moment... Florence + the Machines was on a TV show a few months back, and she sang this song. It was powerful, yet when she spoke, she was very quiet and almost she - such a contrast!!


Shake It Out (Florence + The Machines)

--------------------

Time, today, I was taken aback today with a message from a distant past!! Weird in nature, yet when challenged, retreated... Not sure why, perhaps a little perplexed (who knows) but I'm ok!

--------------------

Yesterday, AAS I was saying in FB, was good, really good, but time will tell! I am still a little intrigued by it all, but I will go with the flow for now!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 46 Something New

OK, this is cheating a little, but it is something I want... Its an Apple TV unit, which will allow me to do all sorts of fun stuff on the TV, using my Macbook Pro! BUT, unfortunately, it will wait as I am buying it for my birthday in a couple of weeks!!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 45 Phone

In all the time we've had our phone system, I've only recently changed the batteries! This is no mean feat, as they are approx 7 years old now and going strong! These are are good phone, sort of 'tuff' for those whom are clumsily drop your phone, yet smooth and elegant all the same...
