About Me

My photo
Brisbane, Australia
I came to Brisbane in January 2009 to be near my family. From teaching art to secondary school students I moved in to working with people with special needs, and now am making little friends for children - surprise, surprise! I have always loved creating things with my hands - pictures, clothes, jewellery, gardens, food, and now toys. We have recently sold our house in Victoria so are now seriously relocating = furniture sorting and disposing, deciding what's imperative to bring and what's not, then doing it. You don't need much and it's a relief to simplify, once again. As my mother says, "There aren't any pockets in a shroud." Cheers Penny May 2010

Another visitor from Victoria was Denise who needed a good dose of leave after working on the fires over summer. She was here for a week and her visit included my nephew, Sam's, 30th birthday party, which was a night to remember. Mum is up here and looked her beautiful best for the occasion. Denise helped us explore more restaurants at the end of the street - Greek and Tibetan - as well as more of Brisbane, including a drive to the top of Mt Coo-Tha for a view across all of Brisbane, and then a walk through the bush. It was lovely to spend time with her.
