And that is life June 16, 2014

Three great things happened today. 1. I went to the supermarket. I never have a huge amount of stuff but I’ve always avoided the self serve checkout machines. I tried them a few times when they first appeared but I found them stressful. They beeped when I didn’t remove my bagged items in a timely […]

Farewell brown couch June 7, 2014

One the sad things about my new piano is that it means I am going to have to get rid of my giant, three seater comfy brown couch because the two giant items of furniture will simply not coexist in my tiny living area. I have had many an awesome nanna nap on that brown […]

bamboo handles June 23, 2013

I bought this bag for 12 dollars at a second hand shop in Tasmania recently. It’s green silk with bamboo handles.   I love it.

silver, scarf, soup, screencasts, spacey June 22, 2013

I am in a better mood today (in comparison to yesterday’s post). After a yummy scrummy breakfast at Saskia’s I bought myself a little present. Why? Because we all deserve presents for being awesome and it’s perfectly acceptable to buy them for yourself.     It’s been at least six weeks since I added to […]

Microwave March 24, 2013

Today I bought a microwave. It’s the first one I’ve ever owned in my life. That’s right. I have survived without one. But how do you defrost bread Wendy? Well up until lately I used to put it in the toaster for a short time. Either that, or I would get organised and get it […]

an at home weekend February 17, 2013

Well it’s been a big February so far. It took two weeks for me to be able to move back into my house properly. Even though I was sleeping here after a week of the flooding I had no hot water system so was living a strangely displaced existence with half my clothes at my […]

green glass bottles July 21, 2012

I woke up absurdly early this morning with what is known in our family as a bit of a “woozy” head. I hadn’t been drinking. I’m blaming a combination of the tiredness from the week, female hormones and staying up way too late. Anyhow, it was a less than auspicious start to the day especially […]

a new grey zip up cardigan thing April 14, 2012

I have just arisen from the lounge after a three hour (give or take) nap. I was very tired and it was a lovely nap as well – the kind where you go to sleep properly and sometimes get confused when you open your eyes as to the day and time. This is the kind […]

buying shoes on the internet September 2, 2011

The last few weeks have been busy busy busy and the next few will be as well. Fear not dear Spiralling Shape readers, this has not prevented me from buying shoes on the internet. Oh yes. You heard me correctly. I did it once and I may well do it again. Living in a shoe-buying […]
