Here’s our brand new wall decal (or sticker, if you will). It was on sale at Catch of the Day a few weeks ago and on the screen, in the gallery with all the others, it looked cool, so we bought it. Pretty simple, really. People make spontaneous online purchases all the time. And we…
Hey. I’m going on a quick break. I’m working on words elsewhere for a week or so – but I’ll be back. There are some exciting things coming up this month! I’ll be around on Facebook – come on over. Take care x
They found the coloured chalk in the cupboard, and like some magic talisman they’ve waved these sticks and made artistic dust on our driveway. We have officially entered birthday season: three in the next two months. Mine kind of sits at the end of the year; an ellipsis when it comes to the family sentence,…
Yesterday was the 5th anniversary of dad’s passing. Truth be told, I was going to let the date go, leave it un-blogged here for what, I think, would’ve been the first time.

No matter how attractively you try to tie that paper gown around your waist it still looks hideous. For a second I thought I had it looking okay, the crossover came down over my cleavage at a nice angle – until I turned sideways in the mirror and saw that by pulling the fabric taught…
I knew this was going to be the toughest living list challenge yet as soon as I saw the first dorsal fin cut the surface of the aquarium tank. It did a quarter turn to the right, then thrashed back, causing a little splash, like the shark changed its mind in what direction it ought…
I took the above photo yesterday, just after hanging out the clothes. Look at that sky! You can almost feel the warmth, the scent of wattle in the air. It was also a public holiday for us Victorians, even better, thanks to a certain horse race. We were out in the garage doing a family…
Okay, so here’s the situation. (Not that it’s really a ‘situation’, a term loaded with spy-like urgency, implying something is more dire than what first appear.)
