Radio Silence

So I haven't written for a few weeks, which I guess is not all that strange, but I thought I owed you all an explanation. On the 29th of July my Poppa died. Although this was a very sad event, I'm glad that he is now not suffering or in pain. We had the funeral on the 3rd of August and it was a really great way of saying goodbye to a wonderful man. We had a house full of guests as a lot of my family lives interstate and although it was a bit crazy, it was really nice having lots of people around to help take your mind off things.

Since then, I've been helping my parents clean out Poppa's room, which is a task and a half. It's been confirmed that my Poppa is where I get my hoarding trait from! It's fun looking at all the photos though, especially the older ones and ones with my parents in them. There's some great photos with amazing fashion.

I've also spent a long weekend down in Goolwa with my Mum, just relaxing. It's been great to get away from the house and to also just forget about the long list of things that I need to do. The weather was divine, so sunny, and it was great to sit outside reading and playing board games.

So now I'm back in Adelaide and ready to get some things done.
