I did not get up early. I did not achieve what I wanted to today. I did not pass go or collect $200. Instead, I wandered aimlessly around the house wondering what my girls were doing on their first day in full time childcare. And I beat myself up over my inaction until lunch time. …

Hello February!
Can you believe we're one month into 2015 already? Already!??? This means that I've also been blogging for a month now too! Where on earth has that time gone? Well, they do say that time flies when you're having fun and I have to confess, it's been a fun ride so far. And whilst I'm still finding …
Where does the time go?
Today we went to the park which was fabulous given the awesome weather we're having lately. A couple of the mums from my mums group came along and the kids had a great time whilst we ate scones (that I'd whipped up before we walked to the park - I know, I know... just call …
sniffle, sniffle, aah-choo!
You can see where this post is going already can't you? Yep, after a week or so of dealing with two sick little girls, it would appear that the gift that keeps on giving has been passed over to me. I had big plans for today and managed to get through the morning and a …
Fail to plan, plan to fail
As you may have already noticed, unlike Winston Churchill, I’m not much of a planner nor have I ever been one for setting goals and so far, I've not had any major regrets. But, whilst there is no question that I subscribe to the just wing it approach to life, I also concede that this year is different. …
The day after
I wish I had something more insightful or inspirational to share but alas, today was the day after we returned from our long weekend. You know what that means right? Unpacking and sorting and laundry and cleaning and... well, you get the idea. There is no question that one of the downsides of going away …
Over too soon
Well the long weekend is over... Everyone here is tired and ready for bed, well except Miss B of course. We've already spent an hour and a half trying to get her to stay in bed... So I need a minute just to sit for a little bit before the post-camping clean up commences! We have …
Bliss, lamingtons and lamb (but not necessarily in that order)
There were quite a few sore heads around the place today and not just within our crew, but throughout the entire caravan park. A late night was had by many across the park last night. I think the balmy night spent in easy company made the drinks go down very very well! Thankfully though, despite a …

Memories in the making
I slept like the dead last night! Yesterday was spent running around like a blue-arsed fly trying to get all of our stuff organised. I think I've mentioned before just how much STUFF IS REQUIRED!!! But I've moved on from that and have managed to have a couple of quiet beers after the girls went to …
The lake is calling my name
I just struck a deal with my hubby. For at least a couple of hours over this long weekend I renounce my throne, as it were and most definitely abdicate my responsibilities. For at least a couple of hours, I plan to sit in my chair, or maybe even on the grass, with a magazine in …
