Twenty years ago, after 20 years of marriage, I found myself divorced and living alone for the first time in my life. A bit of a shock to the system. Anyway, I decided I should prepare myself for my new life and thought I might need some tools for ... I had no idea what ... but one day I might find out. So, I headed out to a DIY store and bought myself this tool box together with a few tools to put in it. They still look as good as new. Strange, that. An electric screwdriver is obviously a lot more useful but, hey, it's good to have a colourful tool box buried in the garden shed. :)

Found in my Grandpa's desk. No idea what it was for. He was a rice farmer, but this tool and its box seemed lightly used so it might not be related. Any idea?
Both Stu and I like Apple Crisp so I thought I'd get a corning tool to help out with the recipe. I chose this one and it is great. You can open it to remove the core which makes this job so much easier!
These tools are sparingly used. DIY is not really my forte, and I prefer to use my hard-earned income to pay a professional to do jobs properly. I don't even know what the thing on the right is (don't worry; I don't really want to know).

The boyfriend's Canon, a friend's Nikon, and my sony. The BF had just gotten his Canon, and I was goofing off and lined them up (after pawing and drooling at both, of course). Now that I have 3 lenses for my sony, I think i'm kind of stuck in Sony land, and as much as I like the Canon's, I'm not complaining (much) because I like how my little Sony has been doing. And I try to repeat in my head, A LOT, that the camera is JUST a tool...its what you do with it that counts......... right?

Finally got around to making myself a dome tool - was being a bit lazy though and only testing it out in the lounge room... Feeling like my lounge room was a bit of a boring location, (and also trying to distract from where the kids have drawn all over the walls...) I decided to go overboard with some light painting to compensate. It's a bit of overkill but the main thing is my dome tool works perfectly :)
