Field of wishes

My place in time #37 - The view from the end of my street

The man who owned this block died last year. It's rumoured his daughter plans to put flats on it, which means the street will be busier. This doesn't really bother me because our house is deep on our block and hidden away from the street. The other house owners at the end of our street aren't real happy though, but that's cookie crumbs for ya.

Our end of the street is in disrepair, pothole city at the moment. Can someone remind me why we pay rates? I wish they'd fix it up, bit of a catch twenty two, because when they do, we probably won't be able to use the driveway. I hope it won't be on shopping day, I may have to wheelbarrow the groceries down the thirty metres to the house! They maybe should have done it properly in the first place.

Christmas Wish List

This chick tagged me

Danya from Danya Banya has tagged me for the Essentially Jess christmas wish list. I tell you my five wishes for things I want for christmas, then choose five other bloggers to do the same.  

this chick started it!

I want one of these smart phones, as opposed to my dumb phone. I want to join the instagram brigade that is taking over the world, one photo at a time. I want to post real time photos right now.

Wantety want want.
I'd just be happy with a black sesame kettle and toaster. Would sure beat my miss match garage sale jobbeys.

A gift card, of at least $100. So I can eat, drink and be merry. Food, booze and a shopping spree, what else does one need......

A new bathroom vanity.
I like the look of the wall mounted ones, but with the price tag, I may have settle for new but cheap. I don't mind, I'm only interested in the new bit.

Don't know what the heck this is?
This is $220 worth of sit on my arse and not have to get out of the car to open and close the gate on the way out the driveway. Bargain!!!








A final wish, that's allowed, because it is not for me, it is for someone else. While I go on about what I want, there are others in the community, the country, the world, whos only wants are needs. Things we take for granted. I hope they get what they need this christmas, be that a meal, a hug, a smile from a stranger or a warm place to sleep.

Lastly the five bloggers I am tagging are:

Slugs, snails and puppydog tails

Tao of Poop

Melting Moments
