film corner
I loved Goon, not sure why as there was a lot of swearing, definitely not G rated, based on a true story Seann William Scott was amazing. War horse is such a lovely movie but make sure to have your tissues handy. Joyful noise was disappointing, Mission Impossible Ghost protocol more unbelievable stunts and things that always turn out too perfectly. Penelope was truly precious, I loved it. Valentine's day was ok not sure if I would watch twice though

weekend bits
another op shop visit and I picked up these three treasures, not much to many but I was so excited when I had these in my hand. Firstly the camera - it was initially picked up by a gentleman and I could tell he was very interested. When I realised what he had I motioned Andres with my eyes to have a quick look at what I had just missed by a few seconds, distraught that I had not arrived just a bit sooner to find it. So when I saw that he no longer had it in his hands I quickly searched for it he was obviously not interested when he realised the film rewind lever wasn't working but a little home repair fixed that. Now the book is one of the many little collections mum bought us when we were younger and most of them were thrown out I assume after some young visitors would come over and draw all over them so to find this book brought back a lot of memories, a whole lot.. And lastly the staffordshire plate, although I am obviously not the greatest of collectors like Laura I am happy I got one. I am going to have a wall in my kitchen with a few plates and have decided they are all to have yellow in common and this one will go so perfectly
a little trip to Windsor yesterday to see the flooded Hawkesbury river but I think we got there too late, we did have a wander and it was perfect timing finding the heart on the piece of wood with my love walking just in front. He knows that when I am with my camera it is best to just continue to walk and not wait around for me
and today I finally finished some duck egg cosies I am sending to a special girl and her boys. I do hope she likes them. And hopefully the long overdue letter that I have been promising her since I don't know when will accompany them. My heart melts when my kids pick flowers for me, my daughter gave me the tiniest of flowers, how perfect and how sad it makes me all at once. It is her 10th birthday tomorrow (she reminds me every few seconds just in case I have forgotten), and she will no longer be in the single digits birthdays but double digits along with her brothers. Boy is it hard letting go for this mum.
My week long break has ended so quickly but I am glad that it is moving fairly quickly, I am super anxious for this semester to be over already.

oh dear!
Oh dear! I have been an awful blogger but truth is nothing much has happened. Still doing my internship, still at uni struggling to get everything done, still trying to not suck at being a mum.
These are a few photos taken in the past few weeks and a few of my latest op shop finds. I cannot wait till this semester is over...I am exhausted.
