Front door


One of the fun period details is the stained glass in the front door. Very typical.

Again, sorry 'bout the sideways picture....

Sun room



This is why I am paying $40 more per week than my absolute top of my rental budget. It doesn't look like much, I know, but there ya have it. And yes, they are sideways. Don't know how to rotate them. Anyone want to teach me how? The top one is the kitchen end, and the bottom one is the end that opens into the garden.

My house


The magnolia trees are in my yard...

Sydney tree blogging


Trees in Sydney are great. I know the lower of the pictures is too dark, but it is my favoritest tree in the city.... I'll get a better picture someday.

Pictures

I really do intend to show y'all pictures, I do. It is just that at the moment I can't find the cable that connects my camera to a computer. Soon. I promise. Really.

Sweet dreams

I spent my first night last night at what will become home. I slept very well and woke more gently now that my bedroom window does not turn into a heat-intensifying magnifying glass for the sun at c. 7:23 am.

Driving.

It has been a busy weekend that has dribbled into the week. I have shifted the center of my gravity over to Glebe, and to do this, I borrowed a friend's car.

Yes, I drove a stickshift car on the left side of the road. I didn't kill anyone. I didn't bung the car. I got where I was going.

I did frequently turn on the windsheild wipers instead of the turn signal and exclusively use the driver's-side side-mirror since the rear-view mirror is in the wrong place.

But I survived. I can now do anything.
