Choices

What is better than staring down the barrel of a 3 day weekend, I ask you? Really. It's Australia Day long weekend this weekend, and I shall celebrate by being as Australian as I can all weekend! Beer will be drunk, and so shall I most probably. I draw the line at watching sports though.

What to do? What to do?

I've already celebrated having the house to myself all week by strolling sans pants around the house at whim. Me? Oh I'm just wandering to the bathroom stark naked, thanks for asking! So I can check that off the list.

Likewise I've also celebrated the recent gift of a freebie DVD player by reacquainting myself with the porn ouevre watching a few films. Thumbing my nose at the endless hours of cricket and other sportish things that mean summer tv in Oz. They do that to me every year, and I hate them for it.

There's always the knitting.

I'll probably do some stuff around the house. Clean up the garden a bit. Buy some fabric to cover the pin up boards I scored the other day. Start cutting out a pattern to recover my sofa. Ask Gardener to repot the orangery and then instruct the staff on the proper way to clean the silver. (Sorry, tipped into Martha Stewart there for a moment.)

Maybe take to some lazy mornings abed with book and some damn fine coffee.

Possibilities.
