Do you ever find that you desperately wish for a calm and easy week and get pounded with the week from hell where the universe conspires against you? Yup, that's me this week! It's the last week of work for both Corey and I which makes it just under 3 weeks before we head off!! …

It’s all for you
To my gorgeous girls, Billie and Asher, We're done! It has now been a year since I posted my first post on this blog and made the commitment to share something everyday. 365 days worth of sharing!!! It was a struggle at the end, I won't lie. Not because I didn't want to do it, but with …
Happy New Year!
What a day! This is a retrospective post because I have just pulled a 24 hour stint of working to produce our community NYE celebration. Having started at 5.30am on NYE and finishing at 5.15am on new year's day, it was a massive day. Here are some highlights! Setting up! Lily and the Drum - …
Last minute rushing around
One more working day to go! But I think I'm under control! I spent today rushing around loading up the car with things to take down to the venue for New Year's Eve. This makes life a lot easier for me on the day and saves me doing it all in the predicted 40 degree …

It’s Monday again?
Already?? Wasn't it just Friday? I hate how the weekends go by so quickly! And as we scream towards the end of the year, I feel as though the week is upon me before I've even finished it! Oh well, at least I can look upon this pic that I took yesterday and chuckle! Happy …
New Years Eve is looming!
It's off to work we go! Yep, it's Monday again already! The countdown to Christmas is on and I have a New Year's Eve celebration to coordinate. This time of year is always manic for me. I produce our local NYE community celebrations and with all the changes at work this past few months, this …
Temperature’s rising
As a born and bred Queenslander I'm not adverse to the heat. 40 degree (104F) days, whist hot, are not unbearable for me. Thankfully, living in Victoria, we have a different kind of heat. Still plenty of 40 degree days but the air is dry and you're not having to swim in the humidity which …
Deadline day
Time flies when you're up against a deadline and and whilst this deadline isn't due just yet (not until next Wednesday), today was my internal deadline date designed so that I could go away for a long weekend to see AC/DC and not have to deal with phone calls! Sadly, I didn't quite hit it so I'll be …
It’s not easy
How do you go about changing the things you don't like? Or even more importantly, changing your attitude about things you can't change?
