A blank screen..

I have just had a quick look through my drafts, in the hope that I would find a half written post that I would feel like finishing. Nope!! No luck. Nothing in there grabs my attention this morning.

I could be inspired by the upcoming American Thanksgiving holiday and list some things that I am thankful for. But I can’t be bothered and in a perverse way I am thankful for that.

I have a serious case of the can’t be bothereds.

This is where you come in to play, My Dear Internets.  I received an email from the lovely Hyphen-Mama asking about Christmas in Australia and if Santa really wears that big snow suit in the middle of an Australian summer, (yes he does). As I was describing  my version of Christmas to Hyphen. It struck me as really bizarre that we just go along with all the advertising hype of a snow covered, Bing Crosby Christmas, in the middle of a  hot, dry, drought affected, Aussie  summer.. Really bizarre…

But that isn’t the point of this blog entry. The point is I would like to know what you would like to know about Tasmania or Australia or even Me. Taking into consideration that my lifestyle isn’t exactly a mainstream one and I have a decidedly green bias. I am on holidays at the moment so I actually have some time up my sleeve to do some proper writing.

Or failing that you might just want to know what this is a photo of?

    A UFO? Lol. I love it when you have time to write, because I enjoy reading what you have written! And that photo is amazing. I think you’re very ambitious to attempt to draw that. With your creative talents, I’m sure you’ll pick up the drawing skills you desire very easily.

    A bird – love the new camera!!

    Oh Santa – wears a red diggers hat, a hawaiian shirt showing surding santas and stubbies -(red of course) and red thongs!

    And drawing – life drawing is probably one of my most favourite things in the world – I adore drawing and resented having to cut the classes short to get to my part time job – don’t avoid – embrace!

    Mosquito ?!

    Your Christmases are the same as ours in South Africa – we have our Father Christmases all dressed up in their hot red suits, perspiring like mad, and we tend to go for traditional Christmas fare! It IS bizarre! But we, at home, always have a cold spread of food still keeping to the traditional ham etc but with salads and then spend most of the day in garden and pool.

    That still boggles me about the wintery Christmas theme in Australia…then yesterday standing at the kitchen sink doing umpteen jillion dishes, it hit me–It’s the British influence that’s spread that kind of craziness to the southern hemisphere. Now I can go on living.

    Any time you’re bored and have nothing to write about, I’d love to see more pictures of your house and stories of how you built it. I get my jollies reading inspiring things like that.
