January is finished !

I can't believe I've actually stuck with Project 365 for a whole month. Sometimes it's a struggle to take a photo every day and I'm not overly fussed about that. I'm just representing the "week that was". What I am struggling with is keeping my journalling down to a dull roar!! One of my very good friends I used to work with often said about me "Why say in 10 words what you can say in 100!!" Enough said huh?

Speaking of my very good friends, I went away on a girl's weekend and had the most wonderful time. Some of my old workmates I've known for 20+ years, you just don't pull those types of friendships and history out from anywhere do you? We had a lovely time down at Jan Juc, sea views, great company, lots of laughing.

As an aside : You will NEVER see the pics of me playing Wii boxing!! I'm shuddering just remembering. hahahahahaha

We did do the beading as promised, I'm so amazed, I made a necklace, earrings, bracelet, wine glass thingy and a mobile phone decoration (which has promptly broken, so obviously I didn't make that very well!!) Pictures will be forthcoming.

As mentioned with January coming to an end, here are my final pages for the month. Because I'm very obsessive, I have to have the month finish on an even double page (yes, and I don't like to step on cracks in the footpath either!!). So I've rounded the month off nicely with these two.

Whilst down that way I spent Sunday night with mum and took her to the movies to finally see "Australia". I didn't mind it. Not that I'm overly keen about her, but I think Nicole Kidman has gotten a bum rap with her performance, I think she played the role she was given. Anyway I was starting to feel like the only person who has never seen it, so I've rectified that now.

Early night for me, this hot weather has really flagged me, probably the hot weather and the big weekend with the girls !!

You are a fantastic photographer! Seriously! Love the Jan fav pic, Lucky's pitiful face between the fence boards, and the coffees with the paper. I'm so glad you decided on this 365 project! Thank you for sharing. :-)
