: I have lost my blogging mojo this week. Somewhere between Sunday and now, it's gone. I've checked behind the couch, under the bed - nowhere! Bound to happen every now and then and will be back just as quickly as it left. Until then, posts such as this (or heaven forbid none!) will have to do.: I … [Read more...]

Nothing really needs to be said does it?Sometimes I wish I could just go with the flow a little more. Relax. Be in the moment. Enjoy a little more. I have spent all morning rushing around - to Preschool, to the supermarket, to get the weeding and fertilising done while Harper sleeps. Running late, … [Read more...]

Dudes! 40 something days to the wedding! {My little sister's wedding just in case you have forgotten or are new around these parts}. We are well and truly on the countdown and am just quietly excited about the whole thing. All of it.Thought you might like a wee update on it all? Perhaps? Perhaps … [Read more...]

: I'm not quite myself this morning, hence the late post. I had a terrible nights sleep last night. Harper woke about 30 mins after I had fallen to sleep last night (isn't it always the way) and she just couldn't/wouldn't go back to sleep. I spent the first hour sitting on the floor of her room … [Read more...]

Let me reveal to you the new painting that arrived last week that I gave you a little sneaky peaky of. It was done by a friend of Rob's, Matty G who is {or was, I can never quite remember} the Manager at the Annandale also owned by a mate of Rob's and a place you would often find Rob when we lived … [Read more...]

Over the past few weeks we have done a couple of things that seem so middle aged, suburban and grown up to me: last weekend we got our first ever non family babysitter who we had never met and went out to dinner. Then last night we had people around for drinks. What am I in my mid 50's now? Do … [Read more...]

: You take some gin: You take some cucumber: You take some ice: You take some tonic water: And you shake it all about: Skip the hokey pokey: Skip the turning around: And that's what it's all aboutSome notes if you will...: My ever fancy General Manager at a big fancy bank Brother got me onto this … [Read more...]

I have to admit to having feeling a little funky the last week. Who knows why? Anyway, it's boring, I'm hot, blah blah blah. So let's focus on the positives right? RIGHT!This morning I jumped on my scales as I have been doing every now and then since we got back from our Christmas holidays and what … [Read more...]

: It's hot round these parts at the moment. As in over 35 in the day and around 33 in the shade of our verandah. That's about 15 degrees hotter than I would like it to be. Last night was not a good nights sleep. Daisy was in and out of our bed from about 3am as she was hot. Had bad dreams of bears … [Read more...]

MONDAY? Again? I'm not quite sure how it happens, but here we are again at the start of another week. I have had my regular busy Monday morning cleaning the house and getting some washing done. This morning I was extra busy as we are waiting the arrival of a new couch! Purchased on the weekend! We … [Read more...]

A few months ago now I was picking up a few pots at the local nursery with Daisy when she spotted a tomato plant and begged me to buy it for her. I had promised her a veggie garden when we moved to the country and 4 months on, the dream is still that, a dream. But we will get there. Soon … [Read more...]

Do you have a certain something in your life that you find really hard? Like really hard? Whether it be a certain food that you want to stay away from, an exercise regime that you want to begin, a certain someone that you want to just stay away from but each and every time you resolve to not do that … [Read more...]

I think our day is going to spent like this. It's too hot and humid for anything much, perhaps a patriotic pink lemonade at the pub later this afternoon, or a swim somewhere? In any case I will be nursing a wee hangover this morning from one too many patriotic pinot grigio's drank with the … [Read more...]

On the weekend in between some late summery thunder storms we managed to get out for an hour to the most amazingly beautiful place just 15 mins from our house. Lucky? Why yes, yes we are.Daisy was beside herself with a little bush walk. We were completely inappropriately dressed for the occasion - … [Read more...]

I walked outside Sunday afternoon and had to turn right back around again to get the camera. My baby! MY BABY! She appears to have gone. I now, instead, have this little girl, who still can't walk, but looks longer. Tops a little shorter. Guts still hanging out. Hair getting longer. And very … [Read more...]

Yesterday afternoon we had had enough shouting at each other (when are these school holidays over already?!) so we decided to get out. Get some fresh air. Clear my our heads. When I was at the butcher on Tuesday I saw a dodgy hand written sign for a blueberry farm not far from here. My gals would … [Read more...]

This blog post should be so much more than it will be. It should be funnier. It should be written in a far more clear, succinct way. It should have better photos. It should have been put up yesterday.Any just why should it be all those things I hear you ask? Well, because it's my 800th(!) post! I … [Read more...]

Note: this post will more than likely be in the too much information Beth and that's something that I did not want to know about Beth category. So male friends, Rob, Rob's brother, Rob's business partner, my brother, my step dad and father in law...go and watch the cricket or something. … [Read more...]

What's worse than sitting through a Disney Live show at the Sydney Entertainment Centre with a gazillion other little girls all dressed up in Disney dresses begging you to buy them Disney merchandise for 5950% more than it is actually worth?A clingy baby that will not let you out of her sight and … [Read more...]

Without getting all dooms day and ahead of myself and panicked and freaking myself out, please allow me this post to do just all that.Harper has always been a good sleeper. A better sleeper than her sister - but then again her sister was a reasonable sleeper until approx. 18 months old which is the … [Read more...]
