Just a minute in.... March

Listening: Lots!! Kid Sam, a new local band has just put out their self titled debut, and it's wonderful, Noble Beast by Andrew Bird ( already a contender for one of my favourite albums of the year), The feel good music of Dent May and his Magnificent Ukulele, Pains of Being Pure at heart are just some of the new stuff I've been listening to and loving.  I also can't get past Dark Was the night, a wonderful double LP which proceeds benefit the Red Hot Foundation and I usually am not the biggest fan complilations, but this IS definetly an album of the year. March has been a very musical month I've also been really in a Joni Mitchell mood, sometimes is there anyone better?

Reading: Meet Me at Mikes-  by Pip Lincolne, one of the most beautiful craft books ever. ( and I'm not just biased, you know)

Making: After a terrible disaster( not me being picky) colin head number 12 got damaged, and so you guessed it, it's head #13. Also an Eric too.

Washing: Ok I'm feeling quite self righteous as yesterday I did a heap of hand washing I'd been putting off, and you don't know how much I hate hand washing.

Watching: Still on West Wing, now I'm up to season 4, it's such a superb show, you know and I don't even really like or understand politics! Also the FOOTY!!!! Yep it's back, ( although don't even talk to me about my boys on Saturday night.)

Thanks to Jen to being our lovely host.

Hey Jess, we have another thing in common! I am ALWAYS in a Joni Mitchell mood. I've loved her since i was a young girl. Her voice is an incredible instrument, and her lyrics are amazing...
I can't believe you've lost another Colin head...How frustrating! The great thing about you is, you get up, dust yourself off, and start all over again! :)
