I can’t quite believe that this time last year I nervously launched this website. This blog. This collation of stories from my incredibly chaotic life. As it’s been one full-on year, and I think it would be remiss of me to not acknowledge it! Looking back now, I’m actually kind of proud that I forged […]

Something has occurred to me this week. Now, I’m being totally honest here, so be gentle. I’ve realised I’m too old to be raising a terrorising toddler, due to turn two in a few months. The harsh realities of the Terrible Twos have already begun. And I’m just too damn old and tired to do anything about it! I’m currently in […]

Comparison is the thief of joy! There’s no truer a sentence than that one right there. I know this. I practice loads of gratitude and always try to talk myself around and give myself a little face slap if I find myself trying to size up something someone else has that I don’t.  But, I’m human and the above […]

It’s been just over three weeks since I got the phone call that my husband, Grant, had been in an accident. And it’s been just over three weeks since I’ve had time to sit down and collect my thoughts for a few minutes without being interrupted by screaming children wanting my attention, a puppy attacking my heels and feet wanting […]

I thought I’d write a little diary entry (operative word being “little” as I have a man staring over my shoulder as I write this at the public library). If you’re just joining me, and you’re thinking, ‘why the hell is she hanging out writing at the public library instead of in the comfort of […]
