Another good night's sleep and less discomfort today, so I feel I'm making progress. My main adventure today was head to head into the city with Jamie to do some shopping. Although the shop didn't have the clothes he wanted, it was a lovely excuse to spend time alone with him and for us to escape to our favourite Chinese restaurant for a delicious noodle and dumpling lunch. He's a great conversationalist and such good company.While we were out Nat was busy providing commentary on our research on women in the construction industry on ABC's the World Today. Go Nat!
I chose to wear my black and silver cuff today - a wonderful gift from Lindy and Chris at the time of my book launch in 2015. Because I rushed out the door this morning, I forgot to put any earrings in; once I realised I felt very naked.
Now this is something very beautiful brought to my attention today by Sophie in Melbourne. It's called the Chandelier of Lost Earrings, an installation piece made up of 3000 single earrings that have lost their mate, like those that I've lamented in earlier posts.Initially installed at a Manchester hospital, the artist gathered the earrings from all over, and each came with their own story. How absolutely wonderful! I plan to track it down next time I'm in the UK. Thanks Sophie!
