“Everyone's entitled to their point of view but that's seriously a weird one.” ~Kevin Rudd (ex-Prime Minister of Australia)
"But the verdict of his colleagues, and the polls, was that changing Kevin Rudd was not a possibility. The problems were deep and personal. The brutal conclusion was he had to go." Brisbane Times
Today, Australia welcomes its first female Prime Minister Julia Gillard. Former Prime Minister, better known as K-Rudd had been quite popular with the public. Due to recent dropping polls however, he has been forced to resign, pressured to step down by his party members.
On election day, Australian voters vote for the political party they want to lead, but ultimately the party within itself decides whether the leader is still fit to keep their post. If not, they hold a vote only within the party, to oust the current leader to be succeeded by a new one. And the public has no say. It's pretty quick. My very simplistic understanding of Parliamentary politics... All I know is that today, we have a new leader for the country and the people didn't have a say in the matter, it feels strange.
Politicians are pretty infamous, not many people trust them because of broken promises; ineffective leadership, debates on environmental/animal/civil/religious/moral rights increasing taxes, poor health care, education just to mention a few. But a life trying "lead" so many citizens and get the country in working order, must be pretty difficult to say the least.
Today marks a clean slate for Australian Politics, or so we are led to believe.

Recovered a few more veggies from the garden. It's too hot now for most of the plants, but the okra is going strong

Happy New Year. I was going to go for a walk. I was going to start the year with a fabulous image. In the end it was so cold, rainy and windy outside today, I am afraid to say I had a lazy day chilling out and photographed the uninviting exterior through the kitchen door!
We recently replaced our showerhead with a low flow energy saving one that our electric company sent to us

It's that time of year. Buying seed potatoes and annoying your better half by putting trays of them on windowsills until April :-)
Two varieties here. Rocket (1st early) and Charlotte (2nd early).
There's a table under there somewhere. This is my tabletop photography set up. I need to get better about putting things away instead they end up piled on one side of the table

How do you know when you have enough guitar picks?
Why so many? Well, before I got organized and bought this box, my guitar picks were scattered all over the house -- in pockets, guitar cases, on furniture... So every time I dropped by the music store, I'd pick up a few of my favorites. And then, of course, there's the never-ending search for the perfect pick.
But once I found what a huge number of picks I had, my impulse buys stopped cold. But on the other hand, the few picks I do buy now are much more expensive. My most recent purchase -- the red thing in the bottom row -- cost over $20.
