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 …
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 …

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?
Is it Monday again already?
Can someone please put on the brakes and slow this year down! Please! I can not believe that it's Monday evening already. Too much to do and huge deadlines to meet this week and they are looming like an out of control freight train! But all I need to do it get through this week …
Hi ho… it’s off to work I go
Today is Saturday. The start of the two day cluster of days known as the weekend. Sadly, when you work in events, a weekend is something that sometimes is compromised due to the obligations and responsibilities of your employment. And today was one of those days. After ticking off swimming lessons in the morning, it was …
Not in the mood
Tonight I'm off to our biennial staff recognition evening which sees our organisation recognise the staff in various categories of the Business Principles Framework. It's my third one and ordinarily I'm excited to spend a bit of social time with my colleagues. This year however, I just can't seem to get into the spirit. This is …
