I've seen it many many times and yet here I am, curled up on the couch. Happy Friday peeps! Have you seen The Notebook? Are there just some movies that you will watch over and over and over again?

Pick me up Thursday
It's been a flat kind of day today. Time has been and continues to pass by very slowly this week and to build upon the road-themed metaphors of late, we seem to have a traffic jam at the crossroads. As much as I'm trying to not let it impact my everyday life, it's hard not to …
21 weeks until Christmas
Did that evoke a negative response when you read that? Because a negative response was pretty much my reaction this morning when a friend made mention of this not so welcome fact. Why why why do we feel compelled to make time go faster than it needs to? I'm a shocker for living in the future. …
TGIT!!!
TGIT! Yes, Thursday! Not quite the same ring as TGIF but for me, it's same same but different! I work my full time hours over a four day week so as far as I'm concerned it's the weekend! And it can't come around quick enough. The house is now quiet but for the hum of …
Sweet sweet Friday
Pizza Beer Two little girls A hubby that is home Best day of the week so far! Just perfect. Have you had a great Friday this week? What plans have you got planned for this coming weekend?
I found my rhythm
Last night I was struggling to find my rhythm whilst writing the application I am working on which is DUE TOMORROW. So to steal from the great man himself, Yeezus Kardashian, I mean Kanye West, imma let you go so I can strike while the iron is hot, make hay while the sun shines and get goin' …
When worlds shatter
I always knew that despite my emotionally challenged ways, I could at least muster up some empathy for families with sick children. Thankfully, this became apparent after meeting my hubby as one of his best mates had a child who had spent a significant amount of time at the Royal Melbourne Children's Hospital as a baby and still …
It just keeps getting better
This evening, we started up the War of the bedtime resistant toddler again. You may recall me having written about it before about six months ago. Miss B was in fine form tonight. She's somehow developed the ability to scream at a pitch somewhere above Mariah Carey's highest octave but just below the silent level that only dogs can hear. She's …
Back to reality
Three times I have tried to sit down and write something this evening. Three times I've tended sick and/or cranky children, including stripping the bedding and changing an outfit after a projectile power-spew. It would appear that after my mini-vacay, reality has come back with a vengeance. Today had been going along swimmingly, ok, so that's …
Winter solstice – brrrrr
I've mentioned a couple of times now that I don't do cold and this last weekend has been freezing. Getting up this morning after the longest night of the year when the temperature bottomed out at 1 degree was pure torture but it got worse... I had to send the puppies outside into the cold …
