My life. My loves. My laughs.
It’s been raining a lot in Sydney this last week. This summer sure has been unusual. I’m hoping that the weather clears up a bit early next week because Angus is starting preschool on Monday and I want it to be a sunny, cheerful day for him! I know – preschool? Where has the time gone?

It is officially summer now in Sydney but the rain – stubbornly and annoyingly – refuses to relent. Thankfully, we had a few hours of rare sunshine yesterday so Rick and I whisked the boys off to Balmoral as soon as we spied the blue sky. Not long after midday, though, these majestic clouds started rolling in and it was quite amusing watching all the couples and families fleeing the beach to avoid the downpour. We made it out just in time ourselves.
Anyway, I was working on my visual diary last night using my Cross Process snapshots and I realised just how much I’ve missed sharing them on my blog. Naturally I am loving my Canon 1.4 USM lens, but there’s nothing quite like capturing fleeting moments on the iPhone and then watching my photos being ‘processed’ into dreamy film shots. Plus, the fake analogue shutter sound that’s synonymous with the Cross Process app is just delicious.
So, for better or for worse, I’ve decided to bring back my snapshots. Brace yourselves.

It got pretty smoky one afternoon last week here in Sydney’s north. Rick thinks it was back burning. I’ll go with what he says since he watches more documentaries than me. I sat on the patio staring at the smoky mist for quite some time – it was inexplicably bewitching.
Received some devastating news tonight. Life is so transient. Cherish those you love.

Anyway, it's tax return time this weekend so watch out for more posts as I procrastinate and procrastinate some more...
(And the winner of the Boho handbag is Hailey! Get in touch soon, as the bag’s getting just a tad restless under my desk…)

Well, not quite but we’re taking off for a holiday real soon and we’re a little beside ourselves with excitement.
Rick is looking forward to the drive (naturally) and I’m hoping to use the break to catch up on all those thirty minute walks I’ve been meaning to take this last month. The boys, meanwhile, are excited about watching Play School in a different location, as per our last holiday.
I’m also hoping fantasising that I might be able to just sit and do nothing, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves here. I guess we’ll see, eh?
Packing starts tomorrow – bring it on, I say!
