So Obama will be president soon.
I’m so excited.
I’ve decided the US are quite good at celebrating.
All this talk of Lincoln and King…it’s stirring.
Sadly I don’t think the state of my head will allow me to be awake.
But I’m sure I’ll get some sound bites in the morning.
History in the making.

Lying on a park bench looking up at the clouds, feeling the wind against my cheeks, waiting for a friend running late
Taking in the massive cruise ship sipping on wine at the Cruise Bar
Introducing friends to my new fav coffe spot
The giggles of a 3 yr old caught on a swing mid swing
Reading a new recipe, buying ingredients I’d never bought before, making the creation come into being
Sinking into lounges, contemplating the complexities of faith, doubt & suffering, with a backdrop of endless bookshelves
Ordering the pictures and magnets on our fridge, throwing away 2008 calendars, writing on Jan 2009
Finding small bits of rubbish in nooks and crannies and disposing of them
Handing over a bag of old clothes to the clothing bin
Walking further along Glebe foreshore than I’d walked before, sitting beside quiet waters
Clean green sheets
Lights at night by the Harbour
Chocolate choc chip cookie
Cafe quality froth on my very own home made hot chocolate, fairtrade even
Pine nuts
Music
