Random Photos and Other Things

Hey peeps, s'up? As you can see, I'm super cool and dope and up with the current lingo. Or something. Ahem. 

It's sharing of snaps time for #LifeThisWeek, but as you may be aware I am not a particularly snappy person. Especially when I have been a giddy old goat and not getting about much. Nevertheless I will share what meagre tidbits I can.

Sunday before last we went for an impromptu drive to Fernhill Estate. I sat in the car while Mickey Blue Eyes did the walking trail. It was a lovely day. 



This was my view from the car. 

I procured a stash of second hand books via my father in law. Winning!


I also have a lovely lot of library books. See below:



And because clearly I was in desperate need of something to read I ordered a couple more second hand books from a website called Browse Books.  Shut up.



Mr 17 found this photo in old wallet my dad gave him.


Passport photo circa 1981 My mum, brother and I

My brother and I circa 1993ish? 


I had my yearly mammogram last Friday. Fingers toes arms legs eyeballs crossed for the results. 

I am plodding on with my vestibular rehabilitation therapy as well as zoom appointments with my psychologist. Progress is being made in a painstaking fashion. Sigh. 

I need to work on exposure therapy so I can get out and about. Not to mention back to work! 

In the meantime I amuse myself in unusual ways. Like looking at daggy houses on real estate websites for no reason. The daggier the better. Like this one:


It's certainly eye catching, don't you think? 

On Thursday it's our wedding anniversary plus Chandler's birthday! Bring on more cake!

Well, that's it from me. I'll be over here keeping things lit and fully sic reading ALL THE BOOKS. 

YOLO!

Told you I had the lingo down. 

Until next time,

Sharing Snaps


Greetings, earthlings! 

Sharing is caring, so I'm here to share my snaps for Life This Week. Fair warning: most of them are my most excellent canine companion, the illustrious Uncanny Channy, aka Chandler. Sorry, not sorry! 

The way I see it, things are so grim right now why wouldn't you want to look at a cute doggo? Unless you're a psycopath not a dog person. In which case there's nothing for you to see here. Good bye. *Waves*

FOOD

A whatever's in the fridge pasta concoction I made.
Tasted pretty good. 


ZOO

Highlights of our trip to Sydney Zoo back in May. I think we got a few animals in there. Ahem. It now seems like an eternity ago and unthinkable that we had such freedom! 














DIPLOMA 

And last but not least, I finally received my diploma! YAY! 



End of snaps. 

Until next time,

Sharing Snaps


Greetings and salutations! I'm baaaaaack!

OK, I never actually went anywhere. Whatever. I've just been knee deep in Tafe assessments. Or 'Taff' as Mickey Blue Eyes says. It's just a thing he does. Mispronounces words. Apparently vegans are veg-ins. If you know what I mean. But that's just me going off on a tangent. As usual. That's the thing I do. Where was I?

Oh, yes. Assessments. I had to do one which involved creating a digital collection then recording the meta data for the images as if you're creating an important library collection. Nice.

So when I saw that this week's Life This Week prompt is Share Your Snaps, I figured I may as well pop in and do so. Even though they're mostly ancient type snaps. Some of them are from our wedding and a holiday back the 90s. Yep, definitely ancient. Can you believe the 1990s will be 20 years ago next year?! I'm doing that tangent thing again, aren't I? Oops.

The digital collection included 10 scanned photos and 10 digital born photos. Then there had to be a few different themes or subjects. Mine was Wedding, Holiday, Dresses & Parks. Here they are all ad hoc, cause I'm not creating an important library record here. I'm just rambling on. Cause I can. So ner.


MOUNTAINS


Father and son, Blue Mountains, NSW

Blue Mountains, NSW

More mountains.



A lookout over the Nepean River. Don't ask me the name.
I forgot. Oops.



Jellybean Pool, Blue Mountains, NSW





Mind the gap.






DRESSES



And now for my frocks. Basically I just wanted to say the word frocks. It's not a proper library subject heading, so I couldn't use it for my meta data. Which is rude. Frightfully so. On with the frocks...


The exquisite creation I wore to my year 12
formal. Big bows FTW!




Isn't it just GORGEOUS? 😍





I wore this to my year 10 formal with lacy
stockings and fingerless gloves a la Madonna.
Well, it was 1986...




Silver stunner. Another 80s number.





WESTERN AUSTRALIA HOLIDAY




Perth, WA circa 1996




Fremantle, WA.  I'm wearing  a very attractive hat.



The Pinnacles, WA





Wave Rock, WA




Me near a cave in 1996. Probably the last
time I've been near a cave...





WEDDING




We scrubbed up alright in those days.

 


I love the leaded glass church windows
in this one.





One of my favourite wedding snaps, even though it's
just random.




Mick loves to say "Take it easy" so this pose seemed
appropriate.





With our parents.



That completes my snaps.  Thank you for scrolling. Auto correct says scowling, but I won't thank you for that.

In other news, it's school holidays here at the moment, this week and next. Tomorrow we're off to the Easter Show. Later in the week we'll be catching up with some friends. Also, I have yet another assessment to work on. It's a presentation I have to give, and I still haven't even decided on a topic! I'm over thinking it instead of making a decision. That's the thing I do. Over thinking and tangents. See? I've gone on a tangent about over thinking....

I'm outta here.

Do you have any snaps to share?
