Giftmas of 2011 past.

On 2 January, 2012 · 5 Comments · In Life

I know everyone’s already posted their holiday photos but we were staying at Mum and Dad’s and I only just mustered the energy to pull all the photos off my camera. We had a quiet Christmas, a claim Nick would object to coming from a small family, and spent the day with my immediate family, [...]

Miffy does not enjoy holidays.

But we hope you have the opportunity to enjoy yours, and if you aren’t able to have a holiday I hope you can glean a few moments to look after yourself.

This year has been really tough for me. I’m not the kind of person to tell a whole year to sod off because [...]

Close up photo of Mum's green christmas tree with lights and baubles and the little gift card I drew for my brother Sam hanging in the branches.

Merry happy.

Even though I’m not big into Christmas I do like spending time with family and taking photos because Mum usually does pretty decorations and we’re all in the same location. This year it was awesome because we have our new camera and while I’m sure my photos aren’t that great, it’s good to have [...]

So this is Festivus, and what have I done?

On 23 December, 2010 · 16 Comments · In A Beautiful Life

Today is the 23rd of December, the day that people like me celebrate Festivus! I haven’t put up a tree for the last few years because I’m kind of grinchy and I hate tinsel. If you read my last post you’ll know I’m not a huge fan of consumerism, and you’ll be correct [...]

It’s Boxing Day!

Ahh the day of fussing over hangovers, and wondering what on earth you’re going to do with all this stuff you were given yesterday. And shopping the sales, if you do that sort of thing (I’ve only done it once, never again!) I hope you all [...]

Ahh, giftmas grief.

On 17 December, 2009 · 9 Comments · In A Beautiful Life


So last night, I decided to put up a festivus pole.

I always get very grumpy around this time of year. It’s unbearably humid, I get flashbacks of my glandular fever symptoms which make me feel as if I were moving through mud, [...]

The giftmas that won’t end

On 13 January, 2009 · 8 Comments · In Design

Tonight I’m giving the gifts we bought in Melbourne to my family, as well as Mum’s birthday present because she was born on this fabulous day. I am pretty sure none of them will check my blog today, so I’m going to post photos!

We’re heading down to Melbourne in a few hours, I hope the plane doesn’t fall out of the sky!
Have a silly season kids, and thank you for sticking around to read this pitiful blog.

Presents!

On 23 December, 2008 · 2 Comments · In Art

My birthday was on Saturday and Nick bought me Prismacolors! I’d been wanting some for a long time but was always put off by the cost. They are very lovely to use, but I have to be so delicate with them in case the leads break. I’m so paranoid, I’m almost handling them with white [...]
