Just now when I went to do the blog I held my camera in my hand and had absolutely no idea of how to get the photos out of it, into Picasa, the laptop and finally the blog!!!!!!!!! For several minutes I stood here racking my brain until eventually the solution came to me. I had assumed there must be a cord to attach the camera to the laptop, so searched vainly for one, then it occurred to me that there was no cord, I simply had to take a little gadget (no idea what it's called) out of the camera and insert it into the laptop.
Since I've been feeling irritable and down for quite some time, I had planned to put in a photo I took the other day of a hailstorm, which pretty much illustrated my mood. But none of the hailstorm photos had come out, and for some incomprehensible reason, about two thousand other photos, all of which are already in Picasa anyway, downloaded (uploaded?) themselves.
I have come to the conclusion that my moods are just as changeable as the weather - sunny and bright at times, then down in the dumps. And for no apparent reason.
Anyway, with no hailstorm photos I chose this one (which might brighten me up). I made these decorations for the Christmas tree last year. (This year I've made some felt and sequin balls, but have not yet photographed them.) I love sewing on sequins!
Winifred, the beautiful sculptures in the last blog are in the garden of the home of this man: http://www.ulric-steiner.com.au/steiner/steiner_home.nsf He lives a couple of km from me and I've only just discovered him. The house is in the bush, on a steep slope, and the swimming pool is furthest down the slope. That day Lina and I (and another friend) drove round the area to look at various exhibitions by Arcadian Artists.

This post speaks to me though I haven't made more than some paper angels, your tree decorations are really lovely.
We are just home from a weeks spent in Devon when it rained every day (ie., your weather comment) nevertheless we had a lovely time in a wonderful hotel and spent a whole afternoon watching them decorate the hotel for Christmas. x
