Holy crap!
What happened to my hair?
Daily washing after salt water or chlorine swims, that's what.
My hair hates being washed, even with super gunky conditioner - the dirtier the hair, the happier we both are.
My favourite cafe is cropping up quite a bit lately, but it's such a lovely peaceful spot, the coffee is awesome and I always find someone fascinating to yak away with for an hour, even if it's me;).
The Stylist on close-up duties today.
Number Three Son goes incognito as Mr X sipping a caramel milkshake.
Mentos necklace = genius!
More simplicity today, but I surprised myself by managing super comfort in 70s stretch poly ... unheard of in a Brisbane summer.
The heatwave has abated for now:).
Time for some yoga warm-ups before the kids go for a swim.
At left, the Suspicious-Scuttling-Soft-Shell-Crab-Pose; at right, the Pose-Pose.
On the left, the Squashed-In-An-Elevator-Pose and right, the Comfy-Armchair-Pose.
The Nose-Pose.
The Stylist caught me rifling through the 20-cent basket on today's op-shop trawl.
My nails are fashioned in a new style called the School Holiday Manicure.
It's very now. The nails and cuticles deteriorate rapidly over an eight-week period.
I'm sure it's a huge trend for Aussie mums.
Do you like the Lego dashboard ring I bought from a craft shop today?
I made this wee messenger bag for Number Three Son about five years ago and it still goes everywhere with him.
It's made from vintage barkcloth, denim and paisley brushed cotton and is covered in badges he has collected over the years - of course, quite a few are missing in action.
Everyone needs a pink rubber watch don't they?
Well I thought so when I found this one in the dollar shop today.
Score!!
I've been lucky to snaffle the laptop at all this week - it's doing the family rounds, it's been having a purge and generally in use constantly - except by me!
I plan on hiding in the garage for three hours so I can have a lovely catch-up with you all - wish me luck!
