It took us 10 hours but we made it!! We moseyed our way to Yarrawonga, stopping for a long lunch and to pick strawberries from The Big Strawberry at Koonoomoo. We arrived at around 5ish (much to the worry of our camping buddies), and then spent a few hours to set up. And finally …
Ready, or are we?
Today is the official start to my week of annual leave. With the intention of packing our camper trailer so that we could wake up and simply head off, we woke early and by 8.30am I'd dropped the girls at childcare for the day. That's pretty much where it began to come unstuck. Dear hubby …
Blurred vision
I'm sitting here watching the screen blur before my eyes. That would probably be because I was up at 5am, at my desk by 5.20am, no coffee all day (because cafes aren't open at 5.15am and I had no time to stop!!!), left my desk by 6.20pm, home (via the drive through #motheroftheyear) by 6.45pm, …

It's been a long while since I pulled a Thankful Thursday out of the hat. But tonight I am thankful. Thankful that it's finally the season finale of The Bachelorette and we got to see who wins (like officially, and not just because a media outlet spoiled the fun by posting up pictures a couple …

Mid-week fail
I feel like all I ever do lately is gripe about how busy I am or how overwhelmed I'm feeling. But that's life at the moment! Today was manic and aside from a couple of meetings it was heads down and bums up to get some shit done! So it was close to six before …
