Just a minute... in August

Making... soft boxes (well just one actually) from All Buttoned Up, I love her blog. Let's just say I drew inspiration from the tutorial rather than followed it... and it would have worked out much better if I had followed it. You can't really call it a success when your final assessment is 'it will be in a drawer so you won't really see it'. But it's true!

Enjoying... all the new growth in the garden, I'm keeping an eye on my native mint, I'm expecting a flush of purple flowers any day now. I mistakenly pruned most of it back a while ago just as it was starting to bud (wasn't paying attention) so it will be less spectacular than in previous years unfortunately.

Raising... seeds: the basil, leek and parsley seedlings have emerged - yay!

Reading... Jung (still) but very slowly, usually only 15 minutes
at the end of the day, not the easiest way to read this sort of
material even if it is a biography.

Thrifting... my all-time best find ever, a Husqvarna 2000 6010 from a local op shop for $30!

Listening... to my youngest make my eldest laugh hysterically - music to my ears.

Losing... the heel of my boot on Friday night out in the city and therefore...

Needing... a trip to the shoe repair place.

Looking forward to... a weekend down the beach with friends in a couple of weeks time, can't wait! Really hoping for nice weather!

Blogging... more often since I started joining in with Kirsty's, Cindy's and Jenaveve's memes, it's been fun playing along and I was chuffed that Cindy invited me to come up with the next Eye Spy theme.

Thanks Jenaveve at August Street for hosting Just a Minute...
