    Seek And You Shall Find: I think about the time I lost my cross in the grass at a park in Westfield Mass and when I found it a stranger said, “Seek & You Shall Find)

    Red: Wine and passion

    Wake up and smell the roses: I don’t know why, but I am picturing and old lady. Weird.

    Fresh goes better: I think about whether or not this is a regular saying where you are from and wonder what it is for.

    Little Ray Of Sunshine: I think of painting with bright colors.

    Sony: I think of the smell of electronics. You know, when they are warm after being used for a while.

    Green: Peace

    Blue: Owl

    The Grey lady: Thin skin

    Sick: Bed

    Rudolph: The Red Nosed Raindeer

    Seek, and ye shall find: Knock, and the door will open.

    Red: Blue

    Wake up and smell the roses: Wake up and smell the coffee.

    Fresh goes better: Fresh frozen.

    Little ray of sunshine: Hope

    Sony: Walkman

    Green: Sleeves (Alas, my love you do me wrong, to cast me off so discourteously)

    Blue: Friday (they’re always blue)

    The grey lady: The pale horse

    Sick: Poorly

    Rudolph: The red knows rain, dear.

    Owl. 🙂

    I’m back!
    I was going to say what I think for all of these but I’ll just comment on a couple…

    Mags – “fresh goes better” was a mentos add and for some reson it popped into my head when I was writing. The ad went “fresh goes better, mentos freshmint…” I think it might have been in Clueless on a TV in the back ground.

    For “the grey lady” see my next post…

    I was sad to realise that when I hear the word “seek” I think of “and you shall find” not in a biblical way but an advert for a search engine/yellow pages type thing.

    Seek and you shall find…Look harder (coutesy your husband kristarella)

    Red: superman’s cape, red part of the ‘S’ and his boots

    Wake up and smell the roses: ‘Take a reality check’

    Fresh goes better: ‘ummm…’

    Little ray of sunshine ‘The song by Axiom’

    Sony: Waste of money

    Green: Riddlers clothes and logos

    Blue: Superman’s shirt and pants

    The grey lady: Ravenclaw’s house ghost

    Sick: BlahhhhHHHHHHHHH!!!!

    Rudolph: Well…Rudolph the red nosed mayor…had a very shiney pair of glasses…or Rudolph the red noed raindeer

Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Title Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Titles! I was a sub for @jamesxuereb.me in the Blue Flame Dragons thanks to his sprained ankle; we won first round and came fourth overall!
I did a bunch of judging and officiating, which was really good.
I didn’t place in my individual events, but had a very fun final round of kumite (sparring).

A little book I made from Bunnings paint sample ca A little book I made from Bunnings paint sample cards. It’s going to be for mini paintings and collages. Sometimes it’s nice to start with a colour rather than a blank white page!
