18 years is not long enough. In the blink of an eye, you are ready to leave the nest. Where has the time gone? 18 years is not long enough for me to teach you everything you need to know...ab...

It's a glorious 26 degrees here today and I've spent the most part of my day out on the verandah. Brushing down some webs from the eaves, and drinking tea, just enjoying our Central Queenslan...

I was thinking the other day how, at times, I can be super lazy, well that's a bit harsh maybe, but give me a choice between getting shit done, or reading my favourite magazine with cake and tea,...

I've been thinking about the word I want to choose for the year ahead, a word to guide me in a positive way in 2018. It's already February and I'm just getting onto this, so I definitely wo...

A friend posted today how she hadn't blogged in 6 months, and it was so interesting as this WAS BASICALLY ME. My last post was back in June or a lifetime ago really, and it's not that I've lost...

I find it fascinating, how much I can get done in a day, when I don't go back to bed after dropping the kids at the bus stop. I wave them goodbye, yell FREEDOM and sometimes even high five myse...

When we were building our house, one of the things I was really looking forward to was my child free craft room! I had planned to set it up to give me ample space for my scrapbooking and card...

Two years I decided it was about time we had a kids chore chart in the house!  My word for 2014 was Organise , and as hubby and I were both working, and the kids had lots of activities on, I rea...

I had a strange thing happen to me a couple of weeks ago.  It was something that I had often read about but thankfully had never experienced before. It all started at the end of the school hol...

Shut the door on your way out 2015.....it's 2016! Last year wasn't a productive one for my blog.  After several false starts, I just didn't have the motivation to write.  I thought about...

My blog sits in the corner like a shy wallflower at the school dance.  Eyes downcast, crestfallen and lonely, longing for some attention. Will someone take her hand and lead her on the dancef...

I was looking through my 3851 Iphone photos today I MUST BACKUP, and I found some snaps that I'd like to share with you. Last week the house was reasonably tidy, and the beds were made.  Not...

I always feel a bit staby at this time of year. For just two days actually, the 15th and 16th of October. Not staby in a mean, self centred way, but more a vibe of LEAVE ME ALONE, I'M FEELIN...

I have a little confession to make. Sometimes when I go shopping, I stop in the baby aisle and smell the Johnsons's Baby Shampoo because it reminds me of when my children were newborns. Ah, ...

Living in the country, we are lucky to have wonderful neighbours who visit on horseback!  Why take the car when a ride in the sunshine will do? Our friends saddled up and rode along the railwa...

Do you have a favourite room in your house? I do. Actually I have many!  It could be my child free craftroom, or my kitchen that I adore, or my laundry JUST KIDDING. My theatre room is a plac...

I bought myself a present the other day.  I had wanted one for so long and wondered how I ever did without it! Do you own a feather duster?  You know, the one with the long retractable handle...

Exactly 1 year ago, my adventure to Blogher 2013 began. I fell in love with Chicago and New York, and the love affair continues today.
