Piano Accordian Man

I am not good at this time of year. I don't cope with life if I drink too much, don't get a sleep and am expected to socialize alot. And work has been difficult and there are health problems in the family and it all feels hard. Oh yes, and I am about to turn 44 which seems quite old to me.

So, that's why Friday night and Saturday were fun - there was a garage sale at Virginia's parents at Mt Macedon.

Garage Sale, Mt Macedon - 23

We went with Tom and Suss, two of my favourite people and Tom, in particular, seemed to blossom in an environment which involved jewellery and a piano accordian. Strange, I know. Obviously he has hidden depths.

And yes, if Tom and Suss read this they will be thinking that I was slack and went to bed an hour and a half before everyone else so didn't work as hard as everyone else. That might have been true on the Friday night, but boy, did I sell lots of clothes on Saturday morning. I was a demon sales woman.Garage Sale, Mt Macedon - 25

Well, you don't look any older than 33, if that's any consolation.
