I was having a random conversation with a colleague (with whom I share an office) today about how hard I find it to sit at a desk and think. Not just in the run of the mill process of thoughts (although lets admit it perhaps that is the case sometimes), but moreso the deep thinking required …

I’m officially old
Yep, it's official... it looks like I just can't keep up with them young'uns anymore! It is 6.35pm. I have fed children, given baths, tidied kitchen, showered myself and am tucked up in bed. Yes, in bed... at 6.35pm! Late nights and mini hangovers just take too much out of me these days! I am so …
Winner winner chicken dinner
Due to the technical difficulties of yesterday I didn't get the chance to tell you about my overnight trip to Sydney to attend a Communications Awards dinner tonight! We flew up just before lunch and managed to squeeze time in for a blow wave before we headed to the dinner. Well, I'm now lying in …
A measure of performance
I'm in procrastination mode this evening. Kids are in bed, kitchen is clean, mind numbing TV is making noise in the background. But what isn't happening tonight however is the preparation work that I should be doing for my upcoming performance review. I'm actually one of those people who quite enjoy this time of year. …
Tonight I feel tired
So much I want to write but certainly no space in my brain to give it space to grow tonight. I'm knackered! A huge week of thinking and presentations and trying to keep the hamster running on the little wheel - both at work and at home. I'm getting there, but geez I'm tired today! …
It’s gonna be a late night
So here I am again, with piles of paperwork on either side of my laptop as I try to prepare myself for a big presentation tomorrow. And quite frankly, I'm not really in the right frame of mind for working - I just want to sleep! So short and sweet from me tonight... See you on the …
Rainy daze
So earlier today I thought I'd get myself a bit organised and had planned to write about my lazy rainy day. I had even come up with the Rainy Daze title anticipating snoozy afternoons and lazy time on the couch - an afternoon spent in a daze of slothfulness if you will. We started out with a …
TGIF!! Oh no, wait…
My brain is clearly addled. This afternoon I was starting to get a little excited at the prospect that today was Friday and the weekend was here. It wasn't until I got home that I realised that it was actually still Thursday! I guess technically it is my Friday as I don't work tomorrow (although …
Groundhog day
Yup, kinda sums up my day today! Did we not do all of this yesterday???? Sick kids, swamped in work, trying to get on top of it all!!! Arggghhh!!! Had grand plans for the blog this week! Turns out that idea was a case of go to jail, do not pass go, do not collect …
Meh
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 …
