Should I get a job???

I quit my job on Friday. I returned from Asia and had this overwhelming feeling I didn't want to go back there any more. For the past 6 years I have been in the 'health promotion' business - encouraging kids to walk to school.

If you know me you know I usually say it as I see it. I told my boss - my heart's not in it any more. Someone else can put thier passion into it. Not sure when I will actually finish - as I am busy at the moment doing my Cert IV in Tranining and Assessment (which work payed for!). and getting more things ready for Yarraville market and Market3031.


I know what I would like to do - but is there a demand for it.


I WOULD LIKE TO TEACH CROCHET.



I have never asked for feedback before but I am now.

Is there anyone out there (in Melbourne) who would be interested in learning the ins & outs of how to crochet???
I'm not asking you to sign up or anything - I just want to know if there is a need.

For Angela

1200......That's how many photos I took while I was away. Most of them aren't that great. Just a reminder of my travels. I am in the process of unloading them onto flickr. You can look at them here, if your got a couple of hours!

It is a bit scary getting back to real life. 166 emails & 25 phone messages to sort through (and I have not even been to work yet)

I have come to realise that home is pretty important....more particular the people around me. I was quite homesick towards the end of my trip.

I managed to pack a fair bit into my 18 days. There were some highlights though.

Catching up with Meg (and Amelia) in Bangkok.

She brought along her beautiful Babbette blanket that she has been making for Jules!


It is inspiring stuff.....well done.

The place I'd like to go back to...

Luang Prabang.

It was tranquil, calm, clean, friendly.

Below is a photo I took of a young monk adjusting his robes while collecting alms of rice in the early morning.

This photo was taken near the local market just our of the main part of town.

I'm off....


A Plane Moon, originally uploaded by andrewsayer.

Well nearly. I didn't expect to send a post off this early ...but anyway I am.

If you know me you would know I am not backwards in coming forwards. So anyway I had 2 hours to kill before my 1am flight leaves. I saw the sign pointing to the Cathay Pacific's Lounge. I went in the door, asked very nicely if I could come in as it is late and they might not be too busy. Well the lovely bloke at the desk said YES. so here I am killing time blogging in style, drinking tea, and sitting in a much more comfortable chair that I am suppose to be.

I can't believe they still sell Coogie Jumpers still!!!! How Kath & Kim.
