Since I bought myself a new camera, and subsequently realised that I probably need to learn how to use it more effectively, I have been thinking about doing some further study. After having a look at all of my options, I realised that I could study online through a Polytechnic down on the South Island.ContinueContinue reading “Beki studies things: Photography”

Running progress
So far I am really happy with my progress. I’m not getting faster but I think I’m enjoying it more. I think I also look a little less clunky, if that makes sense… Here is my running progress…The first photo was my very first ParkRun, reading left to right, then moving down to the bottomContinueContinue reading “Running progress”
Knitting frustration
I had a moment this week. I got super frustrated when I couldn’t figure out what yarn I was supposed to use for a project that I wanted to start. Here in NZ the words for the different types of yarns are sometimes different. So I made a thing: Knitting & Crochet ChartDownload Now IContinueContinue reading “Knitting frustration”
Walking Peggy
Today we walked Peggy for the first time properly. I’ll let the photos do the talking! It was a bit chaotic!
A Cows Milk Allergy!?
For a long time now I have been struggling with feeling incredibly unwell after I eat. At first it was just feeling really groggy and slow after certain foods, and then, when I had settled down in Wellington after backpacking in 2014, I found that lots more foods were making me feel terrible. I putContinueContinue reading “A Cows Milk Allergy!?”
Peggy

But I have been looking for a better bag, you might say the holy grail of bags;ContinueContinue reading “The Mini Evermore bag”
Honeymoon!
Over the Christmas break, James and I took our honeymoon. We rented a motorhome and camped around the South Island. James did most of the driving, but I drove a few times. We worked out that we drove roughly 4,178 km over the fifteen days. Our first day was a very short travel day, butContinueContinue reading “Honeymoon!”
AECOM Christmas Party 2020
This weekend was the AECOM Christmas party. It was an almost entire day in the Wairarapa partaking in wine, beer and gin tasting. James and I decided to stay in a hotel from the Friday night, until the Sunday morning. It gives us less stress. We picked the Royal Hotel Featherston. It’s all done upContinueContinue reading “AECOM Christmas Party 2020”
Freedom!
Short post…but today I had my plaster cast removed 🙂 Woohoo. Back to physio I go. I honestly forget every time I get a cast, how horrible they feel after a few weeks. This time was no exception. I won’t go into details, but it was not pleasant. Oh no! After six (ish) weeks inContinueContinue reading “Freedom!”
