Life lately

Life lately has been filled with things that I'd probably categorize in the above right circle. But while most experiences have been crazy, stretching and also in most cases, tiring - some have also been fun. Like the CI's taught, concert's performed and many, many visitors from interstate staying with us!

But those things will fill another post for another day! For the moment, have a look at my blog award below.  

{Post Script: I also created some watermarks for my photography, so in the next post you are going to help me decide which one is best!}

Blog Award

 A few weeks ago, one of my lovely friends gave me a blog award! {Wasn't that nice of her? Yes. It was.}

But along with this award, I'm supposed to tell you seven things about myself that you presumably don't already know and award some other bloggers. And since most of you know me relatively well, I'll keep it sweet and simple for you!

{No. 1} I get excited about photography. (Wait, you already knew that? Oh.)

{No. 2} One of my goals is to... {see picture on right}

{No. 3} Psalm 103 encourages, challenges and inspires thankfullness in me.

{No. 4} I love improvising on the piano, especially with friends. And especially making up variations on a theme like twinkle, twinkle little star. ;-)

{No. 5} I love Chai tea. (the sugary, overpriced powdered latte-style chai from Mcdonalds? Ahh, sorry McD fans... but, no. Made from scratch with *real* ingredients - yesss.)

{No. 6} I get encouraged and uplifted by the simplest of things. Like a smile, that can completely light up someone's day. Or a friendly hug. Or being with my silly sisters in one of our silly moods. Or a really nice comment. Or a neighbour randomly dropping by to tell me how much they love listening to my flute practises. Or a blog award. ;-)


{No. 7} This isn't something about myself because, admit it - you're bored of hearing about me by now! :P But I just wanted to wish my old(er) sis a very happy, verrrrrry belated birthday!

{Left: silly sisters in a silly mood}



Now, I have a problem. I could award all the incredible blogs I know of - but the list would take up three pages. ;) So, even though I love each of your blogs equally, I'm going to stick with just one blog award.

The Mouse @ The Mouse Files

This blog makes me laugh. The writing is brilliant. Also, she is a photographer like me.

{What more could you want?}

Preview: life lately

There have been days and days and weeks and months since you heard from me last and I apologize to all the people who haunted my blog in the eager hopes of finding a new post and had their hopes dashed each time... however, there is good news! There are several blog posts waiting in my drafts, and I'm hoping to finish and post them sometime this week. Until then, I thought I'd post a random photo taken in the past week...

*Editors note: aaaand I apologize, peoples -  it looks like *this* week will be my blogging week, instead of last week. Hang in there - they are on their way! ;-)
