The beautiful pendant, it arrives in the new year
Well here they are those promised but not so great, they are from my phone photos of my OPRAH experience and a few other photos of the year that was.
One thing i aim to do in 2011, is work harder on making the most of each day , putting more thought into whats really important, it's very easy to squaunder our time and that of our loved ones on some of the modern worlds enteraining, and really pointless distractions, I like to try living in the moment a bit more, and not wasting my emotions on whether anyone likes me or not.Well i hope you all enjoy your last moments of 2010, live them with joy.
See you next year!!

Hotel California

Tonight i'm off to the Eagles concert at Acer Arena with my sister Victoria, i've waited a long time for this, so better late(33years) than never, I've had a long period in my life where not many big things happen to me, but now i'm enjoying an action packed two weeks visiting my sister and her family.
So far i've been to Cobbity markets and winery( cute little old italian winery ) that sells all those great liquers and mixers and everyday but much yummier wines than those boutique ones, seriouly i like the sweet fruity taste. Then sunday we were off to Mathilda"s Market, Such a great market, fantastic quality and so addictively cute kids stuff, got to Meet the very lovely Retromummy Corrie and her sweet new baby Elodie,and Liss her very lovely helper.Can't wait to sew with all those fabrics.

Mathildas Market

Then we spent the afternoon at Birkenhead point, so big to a country girls like me, will have to pop back there before i go home.
