Almost Revamped

04:41PM | January 30, 2009 | 6 comments

I wish I took a “before” photo but I didn’t, silly me. I couldn’t rearrange the furniture. It was an impossible puzzle. It can only fit the way it is now. I used a tape measure and everything. So I was a bit bummed but I knew something still had to be done with the [...]

Studio needs a lift…

12:13AM | January 30, 2009 | 0 comments

decor8 My hours at Crossroads have been nipped back (as of 16th Feb) and I’ll have more time at home to look forward too. I mentioned before the studio felt a little stagnant in it’s style and I wanted a revamp. Move some furniture around, throw some things out or relocate them and just a [...]

I passed my probation. Who knew. Go me. I should mention there was no cake or celebratory slap on the back. Just paperwork. sigh. Something good happened. My base roster changed. Week 1: Tues: 12-3 Sat: 12-3Week 2: Mon: 12-3 Tues: 12-3 … and that’s it. Awesome. I’m very happy. Sure, the whole ‘working on [...]

www.danimezza.com I know, you’re probably thinking “when the hell is that website going to be up and running” well the answer is when I know, you’ll know. I think I’ve completed the layout and look at least. When I finish work this arvo I’ll put the finishing touches on the rest of the pages. Then, [...]

Feeling Blah

My hair needed a colour. I had it cut new years eve but it wasn’t short enough at the back. My hair looks black in the photos but it’s not, it’s just a really dark brown with a few titanium foils thrown in for a bit of fun. I was questioning whether or not it [...]

Dresses are my favourite addiction…

10:26PM | January 24, 2009 | 7 comments

Work today was quite fun. Afterward Steve and I drove out to Rouse Hill. I hadn’t been in ages and was looking forward to it. We had a look at Target and Steve picked out a lovely white crushed linen skirt for me for $20. As soon as I got home I tried it as [...]

It’s Late…

10:08PM | January 22, 2009 | 5 comments

… I should be sleeping. I only finished work an hour ago and I need to unwind. I thought I’d take the opportunity to blurt out some more “real life” stuff for you to mull over whilst I’m slogging away at work tomorrow. You’ll notice on my roster I’m working 9-6pm. 8 hours of customers [...]

Drug Habbit

Photo By Gin Girl Jen Hi, my name is Danielle and it’s been 18 months since I had a coke. Coca Cola is a drug. It sucks you in with its sweet nectar and keeps you hooked with a nice dose of caffeine. It’s the coffee of the soft drink world. Thankfully I kicked my [...]

Laura Photo Shoot

11:43PM | January 20, 2009 | 3 comments

Laura’s Flickr Set It was over 40 degrees today. The heat was insane. Lucky me had to leave my air-conditioned palace and venture outdoors for a photo shoot with the lovely Laura. It was worth it. She was at my disposal from 3:30-6:30 and I lapped it all up. We drove around town, gave Luke [...]

I didn’t sink the Canoe

05:13PM | January 18, 2009 | 8 comments

That was my biggest concern. Would my big heavy ass sink the canoe? It didn’t and I was soooo relieved. I kept poor Steve cooped up in the house all afternoon while I put the finishing touches on another assignment. I’m on a roll at the moment and I’m trying to ride the wave of [...]

Luke Photo Shoot

11:01PM | January 15, 2009 | 3 comments

I got busy the other day and edited some more photos from Luke’s photo shoot. I like the idea of publishing 12 from each shoot I do. Something to strive for, something to make me critic harder. Luke’s Photo Shoot I’d love to hear some feedback on the photos. Suggestions for next time, lighting, angles [...]

HD… music to my eyes

09:27PM | January 15, 2009 | 6 comments

I had an average day at work. Got a new dress that’s similar to my old dress. I wear the old dress so often it was suffering from over-use. Last thing I want is a frayed favourite that I can’t wear. As the saying goes “if it works, buy it in every colour”. It’s the [...]

Adult Capital Territory (ACT)

11:36AM | January 14, 2009 | 6 comments

I went on a mini adventure yesterday. Spur of the moment I decided to tag along with Steve’s bosses to Canberra for the day. I’ve been once before, you see Steve is employed by the USA, so sometimes we have to go there to fill out paperwork… and buy porn lol. I was going for [...]

Luke Photo Shoot

Foreword: After writing an re-reading that long post previous to this one, I thought I’d better jazz up the feel of the blog for all those who don’t care or are just too freaked out to comment. Here, have a happy post and enjoy your day… Luke was my super stunning model this evening. The [...]

Secret Women’s Business

07:33PM | January 11, 2009 | 5 comments

That’s what my Dad calls it. Anything female related or “down-there” came under that classification. He’s a bloke, I didn’t expect him to know or understand. My husband on the other hand is an expert in Secret Women’s Business. He has to be to some degree. Mainly to have a small understanding of what happens [...]

Fluff Piece…

12:33PM | January 9, 2009 | 7 comments

… I got nothing. Everything seems heavy at the moment. Work is crazy. I haven’t picked up my camera since Sunday. Toby & Charlie have forgotten who I am. Steve? Who’s that? I haven’t even read my RL Mag that I bought on Monday. I’ve got a million business ideas swilling around in my head. [...]

My Website… ALL MINE

05:31PM | January 7, 2009 | 4 comments

After years of deliberation, procrastination, hundreds of umm’s & ahh’s I did it. I fricken did it. Me. I have a website. I can’t stop talking about it. I can’t stop thinking about it. I carry a notebook everywhere with me, always drawing designs or scribbling notes. My market research is piled up on the [...]

Coming Soon in 2009

07:04AM | January 6, 2009 | 5 comments

Last night I became the official owner of a .com and I am so very proud of myself, and of course very thankful that I have friends who know what they are talking about. More on this as things progress… WooHoo!!!

A day at the Beach

08:36AM | January 5, 2009 | 8 comments

Steve and I have lived here for 3 years now and not once have we gone to the beach. Not once. The thought of parking (finding, then paying) made us ill and then the thought of crowds… it was all just too much. Yesterday things changed. Steve woke me, excited. We were going to the [...]

Bali Garden

I blame the heat. It’s making me daydream, of beautiful pools, swaying palms and long island iced teas. It’s made me miss our honeymoon. I stumbled across these photos of our resort last night and just had to post them. Can’t you feel the sun, the humidity, the sea breeze… We stayed at the Samsara [...]

Strawberries… yum

03:30PM | January 1, 2009 | 1 comment

Our little strawberries are growing full strength. So cute and yummy. I can’t bear to pick them. This is Steve’s bargain. We got this $100 pot for $35 and it’s HUGE. The plant is much happier now it has a large home but Steve got a little carried away with the water saving crystals lol. [...]

NYE

Steve and I spent NYE at Luke & Gerard’s home surrounded by friends, good conversation and a few bottles of champagne. I wore my pretty new dress that I bought for Christmas (which I unfortunately didn’t get ANY pictures of on the day) so I was determined to get a few nice ones. Sometimes photobooth [...]
