Yep, that sums up my day and pretty much most of my night actually. Dreaded phone call resulting in sick child home from day care (nothing serious just suspected conjunctivitis). Obviously these things throw the whole day out of whack so I've been trying madly to catch up on what I missed today. This working mother gig …

Playing catch up
You know you're holidays have definitely come to an end when you find yourself running around the house like a mad thing, trying to get things under control for the remainder of the week. Tonight has been madness trying to get myself organised, wash and dry clothing, prepare dinner for tomorrow, work on a friend's business website …
The coolest chicks I know
I'm very fortunate to have some pretty awesome chicks in my life. Today, I had to drive home from where we were staying for our holiday to attend a senior management meeting. Given I was coming home, I scheduled in a catch up with two fabulous girlfriends for dinner and a few drinks. We talk …
Me and my Mummy BFF
The notion of a Mummy BFF has been getting some traction on the interwebs of late, but you know what, it's a concept I love. A few months ago I was tagged in a link to an article about the 'Mummy BFF' by my gorgeous friend Mrs Pett. Mrs Pett and I were actually work …
Not again!
This happened today... again, the second time in 12 months: I was in mourning for a little while but then I went and got this beauty today. A beautiful white and gold colour. Is it wrong that I'm a little bit in love with it already? It's been a bit of a CBF kinda day... …

Isn't it funny how you appreciate the little things on your birthday when you're older? How you you celebrate your birthday? PS. …
#baconsandwich
And there are some days where there is only enough energy for this: What is your go-to comfort food when you have a case of the CBFs? How has your week been going this week? PS. I finish writing this post and then saw this: Why you should never eat a bacon sandwich #baconsandwichesarebad #apparently #stilltasteawesomethough
The dreaded call
It's now been four weeks week since I returned to work from maternity leave and the thing that I've been dreading most has finally happened. I knew it would, after all it's inevitable with small children, but I'd been hoping and wishing that it wouldn't. And today it did. Yep, I'm talking about the dreaded call from the childcare …
Today I lost my shiz
As far as motherhood is concerned, I’m pretty confident in my abilities and think that I’m doing a good job the majority of the time. I’m certainly no expert but then I also don’t claim to be. I subscribe to a fairly laid back parenting approach entrenched in the good old fashioned basics that underpinned …
