Sitting here at home relaxing after spending most of the day

in Sydney to celebrate Australia Day 2011.

Myself outside St Marys Cathedral keeping

Mary MacKillop

St Mary of the Cross company.

I'll be heading into Sydney for the Australia Day celebrations tomorrow.

So I'm putting this on today to get everyone motivated to give freely to the Australian Floods appeal BBQs which will be held at all Oz Day events.

While I was visiting an elderly friend today, we had a visitor.

S/he heard our voices and came down for some morning tea.

I love Sydney in the Summer Time.

One of the festivals I hope to go to this summer is the

Sydney Festival 2011.

The opening day/night is tomorrow, Saturday 8th January

with free entertainment at Hyde Park 3pm until late.

Happy New Year to all my fellow Bloggers.

2010

Whatever, Fate has install for me, bring it on. I say.

I love a challenge.

Well, 2010 didn't disappoint. I didn't have a great year health-wise, nothing major wrong but didn't feel 100% all year. I had dislocated my shoulder again, tummy upsets and general feeling of blech.

The end of the year made up for the previous months with my social life improving and I will be re-uniting with old friends at a BBQ this Sunday.
