At last some relief! Three days of 40 degree plus really takes it out of you! Last week was my first week back at "school". It sure has been a long time since I have been in a traditional classroom environment (about 12 years, actually) My brain was about the consistency of unrefrigerated ice-cream for most of the week, so I hope I took in the important bits. But with the crazy extreme weather, I think everyone was pretty much in the same boat. It got so hot at my place that the yabbie who lives in the fish-tank upstairs decided to climb out to avoid being poached and high-tailed it to the back door! My workspace it also upstairs so it was pretty hard to be productive. The sum of my total efforts was one skirt and couple of tunic tops.
I had my first stall at the Rose Street Artists Market on Saturday (the pre-Xmas one fell through due to lack of council permits). As I had kind of anticipated, it was a pretty quiet day, and who could blame people for going to beach, or to air-conditioned cinemas or just lounging around a home recovering from the week. Still, now that I have had much first market there I have better sense of how it all works and can plan for next month (fingers closed for a pleasant 25 degrees!)
That skirt is lovely!
