Friday is the best day of the week! After what is always a busy week working my full time hours from Monday to Thursday, I love Fridays for a whole range of reasons. A little bit of a sleep in is a great start (well, getting up at 6.30 as opposed to 5.30am), getting on top of …

Queenslander!!!!
Despite living in Victoria for nearly 15 years, I am a Queenslander through and through. I still consider Queensland home and many of my closest friends and family still live in the Sunshine state. So I love this time of year which heralds the start of the intense battle of the states that is State of …
Two Sentences Tuesday #04
After finishing a long, draining day tethered at the grindstone, there was nothing she loved more than having the fabulous women who cared for her precious, darling children utter the following words...

Struggling because I can't seem to do the do and create actions from the dialogue that runs rampant in my brain 24/7. Miss A has hand, foot and mouth at the moment so I'm banished to the house until …

Lucky
I suspect I'm in for a long night tonight as Miss A is dealing with the early symptoms of Hand, Foot and Mouth. Tired, clingy, with a mild fever and increasingly covered in spots, my usual happy, cruisey bubba is struggling. And whilst it's hard to watch, it makes me realise how lucky I …
