It was bound to happen sooner or later…

Dee — Sun, 03 Feb 2013 12:45:25 +0000

I’ve been here in Melbourne nearly 3 months… can you believe that? Before you read any of the following I’ll state for the record, I love it. The place is relaxed, the natives are friendly, the coffee is off the chain. And it’s all very new and exiting and fun. I mean, they have glow [...]

Game On

Dee — Sun, 23 Dec 2012 03:35:39 +0000

Over the years I’ve made my peace with those quirks in my nature that out me completely as a ‘nerd’, or if you prefer a ‘geek’. The funny thing is, those qualities were dormant for years, rearing their heads on occasion, but never firmly pushing me over the edge into that [previously scary] territory wherein [...]

Picture This – why I gave up on Instagram

Dee — Wed, 19 Dec 2012 23:09:10 +0000

I’ve been watching all the furore over Instagram’s change of terms and conditions with interest, and as usual, there are two sides to the story, and yet people get all energised and a whole flurry of “OMGs” and “WTFs” erupt in my timeline (be it Twitter or Facebook or even my email account). Here’s the [...]

Across the Road

Dee — Sat, 24 Nov 2012 10:42:59 +0000

One of the lovely things about the old digs in Sydney is that across the road there was a corner store; such a convenient thing to have within easy reach when you’re in need of an afternoon Coke Zero or a bag of chips. (I know, shocking habit, but OMG Yum, right?) The other lovely [...]

Sounds different

Dee — Thu, 15 Nov 2012 08:48:06 +0000

It sounds different here… over and above the usual hum of traffic there are unusual noises… the rush of a tram as it whooshes past my home, the ding ding it sounds as it’s stopping to pick up and put down its passengers. I won’t lie, I totally love it, and I wonder how long [...]

Next stop, Victoria

Dee — Sat, 10 Nov 2012 23:45:44 +0000

I’m sitting at the gate lounge, ready to board the flight, but I’m early, so I have time to write a note, a post to mark the end of one era and the start of the next. As I started writing, out came a bit of a melancholy post about leaving, about closing the door [...]

Faring Well

Dee — Sun, 04 Nov 2012 23:01:55 +0000

I mark occasions with words. These are such words, delivered at the small gathering of close friends on Saturday evening all together to mark my moving to Melbourne, beautifully hosted by Prue and her family. I am so blessed. I knew if I didn’t write this down I wouldn’t be able to coherently string the [...]

A Valid Question – Part 2

Dee — Wed, 31 Oct 2012 22:10:51 +0000

On the other end of that whispered prayer there became a growing desire to pursue some further study in the area of music and ministry, singing particularly and worship leading at its more specific end. I did some research and came up with a couple of possible places that catered to both, neither of them [...]

Home is Where your Heart is.

Dee — Sat, 20 Oct 2012 02:26:55 +0000

I’ve never really been the kind of person who hankers after the past, who longs for different times, different places. I’ve never really been one to get homesick, never have really been stuck on the past, or the future for that matter. I can be quite content with where things are at now, and where [...]

Organisation Station

Dee — Mon, 15 Oct 2012 08:45:48 +0000

There is less than a month before I leave NSW for the long term… and the list of things to do to prepare is long and distinguished. But bit by bit I’m ticking things off and, I hope by doing so now, a little under a month before I leave for good, I’ll be well [...]
